    All of them are good enough to stay up all night reading. For me, there are few flaws and no ridiculous plot twists. The pet novel is a wish-fulfillment story, but it's still pretty good. The others are all quite normal, with systems but nothing too extreme. They don't feature overpowered protagonists; they show their abilities when necessary, and there's no brainless "pretending to be weak to deceive others" trope. There are no masochistic tendencies. Only half of the cultivation/family-themed novels are worth reading (already posted).
