   The first book, a system-based entertainment industry novel, was quite good to write; it had no female lead. The second book, "Narcissus," had two male leads, but I suggest reading with caution. The third book had no system, but had a cheat system, no female lead, and was an infinite flow adventure type.

   These novels are really great! The first one, although not highly rated, is incredibly satisfying and slightly seductive—absolutely fantastic. The second one, which I just finished recently, is already complete. Although it's a mpreg novel, it doesn't focus solely on childbirth; the suspense and tension are incredibly satisfying. The male lead is constantly being scolded for being love-struck, and she's even a god! The third one is simply amazing and noble. The female lead is a princess who is reincarnated in a historical novel. Her family has a high status: three older brothers, an aunt with superpowers, a mother who is a time traveler, and a father who is a high-ranking official. The female lead isn't a saint; trust me, everyone! These are all fantastic, absolutely fantastic! (｡･ω･｡)ﾉ♡
