   Reader note

   I absolutely loved the first book! I just finished it recently. There was a slightly angsty part that made me cry so much, but it was still incredibly good! Just thinking about how Tan Ji survived those 20 years is heartbreaking. But don't worry, it's mostly sweet with little angst, and it has a happy ending. The second book is also a kind of redemption story, and it's super good too. The female lead is very insecure because of her family background, but she accidentally overhears the male lead's inner thoughts, and he gives her a lot of encouragement. It's all sweet with no angst! In the last book, the male lead has a mental illness and committed suicide in his past life. The female lead is reborn to save him. The male lead is a little stubborn at first, and there's some angst later on, but it has a happy ending.

   Reader note

   The first book features a gentle imperial tutor and a down-on-his-luck prince. The opening scene, where the female lead redeems the prince in the cold palace, is truly heartwarming. The second book has a female lead who transmigrates into a book and is forced to follow the plot. The young hostage prince is a sickly and arrogant character, making for a very novel storyline. The third book features a female lead with little will to survive. The male lead uses her and her connections for revenge, but she goes along with it and helps him throughout. She eventually fakes her death. The author's writing is excellent, with many memorable lines, and the female lead is not a saint and is quite intelligent. The last book is a master-disciple romance. The female lead focuses on the main plot points, pushing the male lead off a cliff only to have him reborn. It has a touch of bitterness, and the final epilogue, featuring the female lead and her sister in modern times, is very touching.

    ✨After transmigrating into a book, the female lead, Song Qingxian, can see the villain's death countdown above his head. She must pry open his closed heart through countless rebirths. The male lead is truly insane in the early stages (the kind who would drag the female lead down with him), but later on, their mutual redemption and sweetness reach their peak! 🤭
