    Here are four recommended books, based on my reading time – I've truly finished them all and am giving these serious recommendations. ①🌈Apocalyptic novel featuring a female protagonist, Xia Xiaoman, who has a space ability but no system or rebirth. She's a lone wolf with pets but no romantic partner, surviving to the very end, but decisive and ruthless; the supporting characters are all very powerful👍🏻, including her friends who form a fleet and build a gang, all very strong. ②🌈A socially awkward (and somewhat cynical) novel featuring Qian🤦🏻‍♀️, who unexpectedly gains a space ability, but due to insufficient savings, she has to be extremely frugal, working until the very end before quitting. Even with the apocalypse approaching, she can only buy raw materials and process them herself. Despite having a space ability, she still strives to gather resources, grow vegetables, and raise livestock during the apocalypse. There's no romantic partner; she lives until she naturally grows old. ③🌈Jiang Ning & Huo Yishen [Apocalypse + Rebirth + Space + Stockpiling + Pets] The apocalypse arrives, bringing floods, earthquakes, extreme heat, extreme cold, acid rain, and other extreme conditions. Both the male and female protagonists are reborn. The female protagonist has a space, which she uses to hoard goods.

    The first book was quite good, with a good storyline. The second one was very immersive and quite despairing. The third was more entertaining. The fourth book, the first one I read, was okay, but I skipped the later ones. The fifth book was also quite immersive and good, and rather novel.
