   One of my favorite authors has a new book! I don't need to say much about the author of *Bound Spring Love*, that book was truly excellent, and the new one is also fantastic. The female lead's entire family is executed, while the male lead plunges her into a vortex of love and hate. What will she choose? The second book is also a new work by Ren Huanyou, but this one is a sequel to *The Peony Pavilion*. I recommend reading *The Peony Pavilion* first. The latter two are similar in genre, just not as angsty. You can check them out if you're interested.
