   I've recently been enjoying Miao-themed supernatural novels. While I found the main characters' romance in the third book rather ordinary, the various events and side couples were definitely worth reading. Whether it was Xu Qingshen and Yu, or Liu Sanqi and Jiang Nian, they were all very engaging. As for the second book, I think it was one of the more assertive Miao-themed novels I've read, with a particularly detailed description of another aspect.

    Good! They're all good! So far, except for the second and fourth books, the others are all without romance and all feature male protagonists. If you like this kind of story, you should definitely check them out. Although many people may have recommended them, good books are worth recommending, so I'll focus on the second and fourth books, and also the fifth. The second book is a classic, and the writing is truly excellent. The emotions are very delicate, and if you like sweet romance novels, you should read it. It's not overly sweet; everyone's behavior is normal. There are no idiotic plot points. In the fourth book, the protagonist is intelligent and quite strong, decisive in his actions, and not the spoiled wife type, making for a very enjoyable read. The fifth book also features a smart protagonist, and each episode is thrilling. It's very comfortable to read. I always want to finish a episode before going to sleep. It's frustrating to be stuck halfway through, but it really piques your interest in reading.
