    Book 1: This is a Western fantasy world. The female lead is an all-powerful witch, very powerful and versatile. The male lead is a mermaid, essentially her adopted son. Even before he became romantically aware, he was very clingy to her; after becoming aware, he's even more of a vengeful ghost. Recommendation: 4 stars. Book 2: The male lead is reborn after dying for the female lead. He's extremely fond of her. Because her favorite manga character has pierced ears, he gets his own ears pierced, completely catering to her needs. The female lead is also incredibly talented, ranking first in her school and becoming a pilot entirely through her own hard work and diligence. She's an exceptionally capable individual. Recommendation: 4 stars, perhaps because the male lead isn't particularly vengeful? Book 3: The female lead is a ghost, a ghost from the year 2000. Because she wanted to reincarnate but lacked money, she accidentally entered the male lead's dream and saved him. From then on, she became attached to him. The male lead's actions are completely unpredictable, making it unclear who is the ghost and who is the human between them. Recommendation: 4 stars. The fourth book: The female lead is the male lead's sword spirit. Before becoming a sword spirit, she was extremely powerful and basically everyone's ideal woman. After hearing others say that a sword is like a wife, the male lead's mind went completely astray. The female lead taught him all his moves, so when others see the same moves, they all marvel. The male lead likes this very much because it lets others know that his relationship with the female lead is special. Recommendation rating: four stars.

    These quick transmigration novels, which have low ratings due to low readership, are worth investing in.

    Yun Hezhi is such a perfect fit; he's usually gentle and considerate towards the female lead. When she accompanied him on a diplomatic mission to an enemy country, and she glanced at a male slave in the slave market, he went back and immediately started taking off his own clothes and giving her the cold shoulder. After discovering she was actually looking for someone, he ran to the dungeon in the middle of the night to find them. The author's description in that part was absolutely brilliant, giving off a completely ghostly, eerie vibe. This chapter is chapter 95. If you're interested, you can read it; it's amazing.

    Both are ghost stories by the same author. The first one is a satisfying yandere romance with a complex mix of love and hate, though the plot is a bit melodramatic (but who cares, the romance is great). This one isn't as eerie; it's more like a female ghost story. If you're interested, you can check out my review for spoilers. The second book is the author's newest work, and although it's small, it already sounds amazing. It has a strong eerie and ghostly vibe, and the premise of the top (1) disguising themselves as someone close to the bottom (0) is really satisfying.
