The comments section says the second world is the best part from here on out, and I agree (the first world is also good, with a few minor flaws). The male lead in the second world is just mindlessly doting on the female lead; even though she's lazy and greedy, his own mother attests to the fact that he went crazy after meeting her…

    I enjoyed the first book of the "Popular with Everyone" novel because I liked the pure, satisfying read. I preferred the first book because it featured a combination of forceful acquisition, bullying, and affectionate love for a clumsy yet charming girl. The third book was a slower burn, but it expanded the story with more domestic and international locations and offered more detailed and affluent descriptions of life. It was quite interesting. Personally, I love the first book the most; imperfections are often the best things in life—it reminds me of "The Veil."

    This is a great read! It's a story about raising a child, and Ya Ya is absolutely adorable. I've read similar books before, but none are as good as this one. In that other book, the little girl was always protecting her mother, and even after her mother remarried her stepfather, she still wanted to have another child—a decision she made willingly. Although the mother was still very kind to the little girl, it still felt uncomfortable. That book really relied on the little girl protecting her mother, and yet it ended badly, so I dropped it. This book is different. Ya Ya receives unique and complete love, which I really love. The only regret is that she doesn't end up with Xiao Ze, but I also think it's the right thing to do; Ya Ya is definitely more suited to Han Cheng. There are also many adorable supporting characters, like Xiao Chengzi and Er Mao. The friendship between the children is very touching. [Heart][Heart]

    This book is incredibly good! [Sparrow's Masterpiece] It's a military marriage with no stepmothers and a revenge story. The female lead can't do heavy labor, so she uses her intelligence to complete tasks, attends a vocational school, and doesn't go to the countryside. The rating is a bit low because there aren't many reviewers. [Added to bookshelf][Added to bookshelf] It mainly depicts the warm daily life of the main family. Its strength lies in its excellent sense of the era; this is the most focused on historical setting I've read on Tomato Books. [Already hooked] Prices are reasonable and precise, with accurate amounts of money for tickets. The details are meticulous, and there aren't too many awful characters. It feels like you're truly living in that era. The only downside is the slow pace; there isn't much romance yet. You can read it as a historical fiction combined with a farming/rural story.
