    Both of these are sweet romance novels about table tennis. The first one is a brainless sweet romance with a fast pace and an incredibly strong female lead. The second one is a bit more realistic, and the female lead is very strong with her left hand, although she uses her right hand in the early stages. The romance between the male and female leads is also very sweet, with a slow and steady feel to it.
