   This is really good, mainly because the ratings are low since they just came out. There are already 27,000 people who have viewed it, it's really good. The ending is sweet. It's a happy ending. (Edited and supplemented on 2026.5.15: It's not a hiatus, uh, the author just said he wouldn't let it end. Well, you can understand it as a lingering thought, a lingering thought for both sides. Although he only marked it as not finished, at least he marked it. He didn't explicitly say it was finished, so I'll assume it's not finished. The author is really great! If it were a hiatus, how should I put it? There's an intangible barrier in the world of your book (although it already existed, but it's even thicker now that it's finished).

   (The first three books have couples, the last one doesn't) The first book is very well written, with a strong sense of ensemble cast, a little angsty but not for the main characters. The second book is the pinnacle of campus romance novels in my opinion; the relationship between the male and female leads is very enviable, with lots of details [heart emoji]. The only sweet novel that made me cry. The third book's romance is so well-written, it took me a long time to recover after finishing it [almost crying emoji].

    All of them are super good. Books 2 and 3 feature strong female leads without any romantic pairings, while book 1 has a romantic partner, but they don't appear often in the early stages, making for a very enjoyable read later on. Furthermore, the ensemble casts in these books are all excellent; each character has a distinct personality and is very funny.

    These books are all super good, but it's a shame they're not getting adapted. The first one was supposed to be adapted into a TV series without any romance, so they changed it to a romance and she's dating the fourth senior brother, and they even removed the eldest senior brother from the story. The second one is really crazy, but I love it. The fifth one is the comic book version of the first one, which is amazing. The third one is also fantastic. The sixth one is a novel I read before; I almost finished it, but there are still a few chapters I haven't read. I forgot what I was doing, but I stopped reading it for a few days and then stopped. The seventh one is also great, just as crazy as the first one. The eleventh one is absolutely delicious.
