   Reader note

   I've been reading novels since middle school, so here are a few recommendations I think are good. I won't add the ones that are already mentioned. (These are just my personal opinions.) The first one has multiple female leads, set in a steampunk and magical era, with a strong Cthulhu vibe. Everyone's a yandere, and the character development is quite good. I finished the whole thing, and there were basically no major flaws. The second one is the previous book by the author of *Ten Days to the End*, *Insect Team*. The deconstruction of each legend is brilliant, but the only drawback is the modern-day plot; the major flaws are in that part. The third one, I've read two chapters so far, and the overall impression is good. It's worth reading so far. If the author can maintain this level, they have the potential to compete with their predecessors. The fourth one has a fairly average writing style, but I have no resistance to this genre. Fans of Cthulhu might want to check it out. The fifth one also features a cast of yanderes, including the male lead [facepalm]. The plot is quite enjoyable, everyone's a high-level yandere, and the author uses a lot of references. It's worth a look. The only downside is that there's too much psychological description of the characters, which made me feel a bit awkward. The sixth book is quite thrilling, consisting of multiple instances. The protagonist is also intelligent, making it a good read.
