   A 20-year veteran bookworm's honest recommendation: three types (historical fiction + supernatural + urban romance). After reading these, I immediately checked out the author's other novels and followed the author. [Already recommended] [Already recommended] Book 1: Technical military officer vs. Powerful female boss + female lead causing trouble: The female lead transmigrates to the 1970s and becomes a widow shortly after marriage. Facing a terrible family, watch her level up, transforming into a village accountant, commune secretary, county economic manager, deputy county rank, provincial rank, and in the process, a divine romance with our male lead unfolds. [Already recommended] Book 2: Suspenseful romance + supernatural. From birth, a blind fortune teller said I was cursed by a white tiger, the female lead was destined for a male fate, and I was destined to be unlucky in love. But my grandmother, the aunt at the funeral parlor, disagreed and taught me all kinds of supernatural methods. I am a female fortune teller, and I will guide you... [Already recommended] This is my third book. It's a farming/rural/family drama/comedy/fishing story. The plot is fast-paced, with the first part depicting daily life in a gentle, flowing manner. Once the fishing spot opens, there are all sorts of exhilarating moments that will make you feel like you're flying – a truly satisfying read!

    The first book is for female readers. The female lead doesn't reincarnate, time-travel, or have any special abilities, but she's very smart, making it a very enjoyable and unconventional read. It's set in a time of famine and is very realistic. The second book is for male readers. The male lead is reborn in the 1990s and becomes a trader in Russia.

    These are some of my most treasured period novels. The first one is about a time-travel protagonist who gets into a novel, dealing with difficult characters while enjoying the gossip. The second one starts from childhood, with the female lead having a knack for jinxing her brother; the story spans from her early years to adulthood. The third one captures the vibrant, everyday life of a hutong (traditional alleyway). The fourth one features a female lead who moves from the countryside to the city, gets married, and lives a simple, ordinary life with the male lead in a courtyard house—no major upheavals, just the simple happiness of ordinary people. The fifth one has a female lead who is forced to go to the countryside due to family circumstances, where she meets the male lead, falls in love, and eventually marries him. The sixth one features a female lead who is a villain—no redemption, and she never suffers a loss. The seventh one is a heartwarming and loving period novel. The eighth one features the male and female leads struggling with their own lives, dealing with everyday family matters. Both are self-interested, not perfect characters. The ninth one features a female lead who takes her younger brother to the countryside for her family, helping others along the way, and ultimately achieving a happy marriage. The tenth book is highly recommended; the female protagonist transmigrates into a book, going to the countryside to fight against awful people, and it's all about gossip. The eleventh book features a male and female protagonist who are cannon fodder in the original book, but the female protagonist transmigrates to change their fate. The twelfth book has a female protagonist who transmigrates with a supermarket system and contributes to the country's development. The thirteenth book has a female protagonist who transmigrates into a book and lives a peaceful life in a military marriage. The fourteenth book is a transmigration novel with a child. The fifteenth book has a female protagonist who transmigrates with a system and uses it to choose her husband. This particular novel has a strong portrayal of human nature, and you can learn some life lessons from it.

    1. The female lead is the family's darling. Her grandmother is stern with her grandsons but gentle and tender with her granddaughter. The female lead's mother fell when she was born, causing her to be slow in everything she does, which her family sympathizes with. 2. This period drama has a rather novel plot. It tells the story of how, after the female lead's birth, her lazy and greedy parents forced her to adopt her grandfather's surname for three generations. Because she inherited her grandfather's surname and good looks, she is doted on by her grandparents and rises to the pinnacle of life. (Her grandmother took a liking to her grandfather's good looks and made him enroll in a school, so all subsequent descendants take her grandmother's surname, except for the female lead.) A family of extreme characters, a unique and satisfying period drama. Well, even a life of hardship and unexpected good fortune is still a good life, right?

    The second book is like winter meeting spring, stars meeting the moon; even as time changes and space reverses, lovers will always be together. The male lead is obsessed with love, and the female lead is driven by career. Both are intelligent throughout, with the female lead's career taking the lead and the romance being a bonus. The emotions are delicately portrayed. The female lead's career is incredibly fulfilling, making significant contributions to the country. The "golden finger" (advantages/favors) are used reasonably, not just mindless looting (mainly because the female lead's mother is so capable she knows even if a single onion is missing). There are four children in the family, with the female lead being the third, representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The book is short, with a tight plot, leading some to suspect the author is a seasoned writer using a secondary account. I strongly urge you to read it; you'll regret it if you don't. I was especially happy to see "Winter Melon Egg" (the female lead's nickname) for the first time; he provided all the humor in the book.
