    The first book is the best romance novel; the writing is very skillful, the vocabulary and sentence structure are reminiscent of Jin Yong's works, the plot flows smoothly, and the character design is also very fresh. The second book has no romantic pairing. The third book has very precise word choice and incorporates a lot of classical Chinese, making it very literary. It has a female lead but no harem. The fourth book is also a romance novel, a sweet and doting story, but it's not clichéd. The author's writing is smooth, the vocabulary is appropriate, and the character development is excellent, so the overall reading experience is very good. The fifth book is still a romance novel, and it has both an anime and a TV series adaptation, which are both very good. The remaining two books can be roughly guessed from their titles; they're good for killing time and are satisfying reads.
