   I recently finished reading the first one and highly recommend it. The author has a grand vision, the characters are very well-developed, the plot is funny and fast-paced, and the female lead grows through the story—in short, it's a very good read. The other books, of course, need no further introduction; they are all must-read historical romance novels by Tomato (the author). [Top post]

   Who understands! I recently finished reading three books, and they've instantly become my go-to treasure trove of reading material! ✨ ① *In the Midsummer of August* by Jiang Nanshan and He Beizheng: "Meeting may be accidental, but reunion is inevitable. The dawn redwood's crown always grows towards the sky. Over the years, he has only loved that one southern dawn redwood." I've remembered this line for a long time! A story of reconciliation after eight years, their reunion in the midsummer. The emotions are written with restraint yet deeply moving, and the aftertaste is truly powerful. ② *Conquering the Young Master of Miao Territory (The Young Master of Miao Territory is both competitive and domineering)* A fantastic ancient romance! There's not a single frustrating moment throughout, and it's incredibly sweet. I absolutely love the young master's possessive character, and I devoured it in one go. ③ *The 70s: Professor Lu's Wife is Beautiful and Vicious* A period novel with an interesting contrast in character settings. The beautiful heroine and Professor Lu are both wonderful. It's already completed, so you can read it with peace of mind. It's a perfect choice for those looking for something to read!

    These are all books I treasure! The first one is an episodic story, featuring different main characters, plots, and endings – very interesting. Books 2, 3, and 4 are all by Yuzu; I think the character designs of the male and female leads are top-notch, with the male leads being gentle and handsome young men. The author has a grand vision and writes with great realism and detail. Book 5 is also episodic, but all the stories are interconnected. It's short and heartwarming; one story even surprised me because the female lead previously liked girls. Book 6 reads like a fairy tale; the people in this world retain some animalistic traits, making them adorable. The author is also very daring. The love story between the little rabbit and the wolf is truly sweet.

    This book is so good!!! I initially came for it because of the tags "no romance" and "ensemble piece." The synopsis seemed interesting; I thought it was about three good friends venturing into the world of cultivation and the series of hilarious events that followed. But...! Judging from the beginning, the author's writing style is really good, with a comic panel and anime feel. It's the kind of story where you can visualize exciting scenes from an anime just by reading the words [top post]. It makes you want to adapt the novel into an anime while reading (I pictured the art style of Fox Spirit Matchmaker while reading [laughing and crying]). The main characters started as a trio and later included Jiang Daochen (known in the martial arts world as the Dark Boy [cool]), Yang Shuo (the steam chef 👨🏻‍🍳), Xu Miaoyan (the original female lead who was controlled by the demonic cultivator leader for tens of thousands of years [almost crying]), Qiu Ling (the arrogant and conceited young lady of the immortal sect [making a face]), Wu Nian Fozi (the unfortunate monk who treats Amitabha Buddha like a ghost [sad]), and many, many more characters... It's truly a ensemble piece, with each character having their own storyline. These storylines intertwine and interweave, from their daily lives to the grand themes of family, country, and the world. There are lighthearted and funny everyday moments, heart-wrenching emotions, and even the cold and cruel realities of war... The author's logical thinking is extremely rigorous. Even the smallest details described earlier could be the butterfly effect that triggers a massive change later on. There are no unnecessary plot holes left unfilled. Both the battles between Song Li and Qu Muyou and the power struggle with Luo Jing are incredibly exciting—the kind of scenes that even a huge budget couldn't replicate.

    These are all relatively new books, and they're all super good! Highly recommended!!! The first book: Prince Yan encounters Ji Yun by chance in Mangshan. He misjudges her, thinking she's dignified and generous, and suitable to marry. Soon after, Prince Yan becomes emperor and marries her as empress. Faced with the young and handsome emperor, Ji Yun is consumed by jealousy, vowing to monopolize his favor. But the emperor has a dream of having three palaces and six courtyards. Thus! The two engage in a fierce battle. Will the emperor give up his dream? Or will the empress yield? Want to see a crying emperor? Want to see an emperor who sews little undergarments? Come read this book!!! The second book: The male lead is Fu Zheng, and the female lead is Hua Yu. She initially appears to be a parasite in the eyes of the world, but is actually the cannon fodder sister who dies young in the novel. She experiences various ways to die at the beginning, and in the end, she has to bind herself to a system to win over Fu Zheng and prolong her life. Fu Zheng, whose name doesn't match his character, is a sickly, frail man destined for a short life. Bound to a system called Xiao Hua, he gains life and a mortal enemy. They reunite through a blind date, and in order to win him over, they marry. Amidst various speculations, rumors circulate that one is a fiercely protective husband, and the other a doting husband. But are they truly as the rumors suggest? Stay tuned! The third book (similar in theme to the second, but!!

    It's an ancient romance set in a specific era, but the plot seems similar. One is about childhood sweethearts, the other about scheming between cousins. 🍒🍒 In his past life, the male lead's white moonlight (his beloved) became pregnant, and he immediately took her into his mansion to raise her. Later, he divorced the female lead. In his rebirth, he still brought his white moonlight back, but she demanded that the female lead's maidservants serve her. "My maidservants are at least seventh-rank officials. You even have to kneel and kowtow three times before the ninth-rank magistrate of Jiangdu, and now you want my maidservants to serve you? She is the most favored princess protecting the nation. Why bother accommodating someone you don't need to?"
