    The first one is truly exceptional; the author's writing is excellent and meticulous. The male lead is chivalrous and spirited, not expressionless, but rather sculpted like a cat—very tactful. The female lead is a well-rounded, intelligent, and capable warrior; she doesn't just stand around waiting for the male lead to rescue her—she's self-reliant and a truly shining heroine. I finished the second book before it became popular, and its quality is undeniable; the ensemble cast is incredibly strong. In the third book, I especially loved the intense, tumultuous relationship between He Tanhua and Lou Erniangzi. The fourth book is also heartwarming, as evidenced by the number of readers. The biggest drawback of the fifth and sixth books is that they are unfinished, but I still find them very enjoyable and have been keeping them on my wish list. You could watch the anime adaptation first, especially the penultimate one, which is quite well done, featuring live-action footage and a specially written song. The last one is related to history, written with great detail and interest, presenting famous historical events from a different perspective!

The first one is bittersweet, the second is bittersweet with a touch of angst, the third is bittersweet but sweet later on, the fourth is a ghost-male protagonist and both the main characters are crazy and mortal enemies, the fifth is more angst-heavy.

    I guarantee this is a masterpiece!!! 1V2, all three male leads are virgins, the female lead is reborn, and she's a kind, bright, optimistic, and sincere little sun. One male lead is her gloomy childhood sweetheart ex-husband (from her past life), and the other is her gentle current lover who has fallen in love with her. The two male leads are evenly matched!!! The author's writing is excellent, with incredibly delicate emotions. Whether it's small details or major emotional moments, the plot is written naturally and is very touching. Many novels nowadays portray the relationship between the male and female leads in a somewhat formulaic way, or sometimes it doesn't fit the characters' personalities, but this book doesn't have that feeling at all! While reading, I kept marveling at how the author is still a Level 1 author. I rarely read 1V2 novels, but this one really made me want all three of them to be together and live a happy life! Most importantly, although both male leads are very charming, you'll grow to appreciate and like the female lead more and more as you read on. I just want to say that the two male leads are very lucky, hahaha!
