    I'm shamelessly recommending this book. The author's hair has gone from blond to white, but I guarantee it's not mindless and the writing is solid. However, because it's written from the author's own perspective, it's not a pure wish-fulfillment story. Therefore, it features a single female lead and no harem. Thank you, everyone!
