    The first book has two male leads, the protagonist is reborn, and later the others regain their past life memories—a very old-fashioned trope. The second book is highly recommended; it's incredibly good. It also has two male leads, but something eerie happens, the protagonist is very crazy, and has a split personality. The other male lead, I guarantee, is an angel, somewhat like a male mother figure. Both are strong protagonists.

    Highly recommended! All are strong female protagonist novels (I have two Tomato accounts, so the reading time should actually be longer). 1. Ensemble cast, no romance: The friendship between Lazy Sister and Da Qiang is very well written! The female protagonist is a transmigrator who is considered mentally challenged in interstellar space due to her lack of mental power (but this doesn't affect how enjoyable the story is!). 2. Also very well written; those who can accept the female protagonist finding a system to play the role of a wife to solve problems can read it. 3. A must-read! Highly recommended! The "Wine Judgment" wins, no explanation needed. 4. No romance, very comfortable to read; the female protagonist is the strongest, no explanation needed, and her mental state is also beautiful. 5. Has a romance; the female protagonist has a grand vision, uniting other reborn superhumans. But I personally feel the plot of the assistant giving her a space is a bit far-fetched. 6…

    A selection of completed novels for seasoned bookworms, covering various genres—take your time and enjoy! The first is a period drama; the author writes very realistically about life at the time, vividly depicting the heroine's emotional journey and making her feel alive. The plot is fast-paced, and the stories of minor characters are also excellent. The second is a campus romance, a love story between a cool girl and a sassy guy. Although it's quite different from real-life university life, the author's writing is excellent, making it a good short story. The third is an ancient family drama, depicting the connection between natives and time travelers from a very unique perspective. I've always believed that ancient people were very intelligent, as evidenced by the various inventions that have survived to this day. However, other time-travel novels seem to portray ancient people as fools. This book has a unique approach, and the young lady is truly powerful! The fourth is a post-apocalyptic novel. The title might be off-putting, but once you start reading, you'll gradually become addicted. The author's writing is quite good, and the author's assistant is very considerate.
