   Reader note

   The first book is about a male protagonist who transmigrates into an AI-generated yandere world, and can only leave by achieving a perfect ending (he can rewind time). Personally, I think the balance between "yandere" and "delicate" is well-handled; the plot isn't idiotic, and there are even some surprising twists. I didn't find any obvious flaws. The second book is autobiographical (the author claims it's autobiographical, and I agree, although some say it's fake). The female protagonist's highly developed brain makes her overly sensitive emotionally. It's a very realistic book, without any tricks, just genuine emotions. The third book is by Xi Kang, but I think many people have read it, so I won't go into detail.

    The characters of the male and female leads are absolutely brilliant; I couldn't put the whole book down! Ningning is bold and decisive, admires strength and is insightful. She's outgoing yet mature and steady, rational, kind, and generous. Even when facing family difficulties, she never gives up on herself; instead, she bravely pursues what she loves, living life to the fullest. The male lead, Xiao Fu, has incredibly positive values. He not only provides Ningning with abundant emotional support but is also incredibly considerate and thoughtful, offering comfort and support whenever she faces challenges. These vibrant and endearing characters are so captivating; I highly recommend everyone check it out!

    I personally recommend the second book. It has two female leads. The protagonist transmigrates into a book as a cannon fodder villain. Facing a death ending, he pretends to be a yandere who likes the female lead, but in reality, he is a yandere. The original female lead was a pure and innocent girl, but he directly transformed her into a yandere. Throughout the book, the protagonist is intelligent and tries every means to defeat the original male lead in order to survive. It's a 1v1 pure love story.

    An overwhelming desire for control. Not physical control, but a psychological control that never leaves one's side. This is the true masterpiece of a yandere story.

    I don't know if it counts as high intelligence, but it was definitely fun. However, it's best to immerse yourself in the protagonist's perspective or be semi-omniscient, otherwise it can be a bit stressful.
