   🧸This is the first novel about female readers. The male protagonist is a loyal dog. The male protagonist is super humble, but the female protagonist is a true darling. Recommendation: five stars 🧸The second book has a double life of male and female protagonists. It is written by the same author as the first one. It is a bit abusive to the male protagonist. The male protagonist has all the power over his identity and is loyal to the female protagonist. Recommendation: four stars 🧸The third book is a cunning and shameless prince x a hard-working and occasionally cute little fish. Highly recommended.
