    The first book features a female protagonist who catches ghosts and tells fortunes. After death, she becomes the female supervisor, who manages all ghosts and guides them through reincarnation. I personally think it's good. The second book features a female protagonist who helps the deceased fulfill their wishes; the story unfolds in segments. The third book features a female protagonist who extends her own life. I won't say more; it's good. If you're interested, you can check it out.
