   The author uses a new pseudonym; it's a comic book invasion of reality genre. I like the premise, but the characters feel too thin and somewhat stereotypical.

Grateful for her generosity, I brought out my project proposal. “First, sponsor my advisor and become her biggest investor,” I said. . 1. The main story is told in third person. 2.

   I'm currently watching. Essentially, the female protagonist is a lawful good, protecting the world from nuclear disaster (?), But she kills wave after wave of players, which is somewhat endearing. The game content is well-written, and the emotional parts of the game storylines are quite moving. There's also a lot of filial piety literature that's absolutely hilarious.

   The world-building and setting are absolutely five stars, and many plot points are incredibly impactful and memorable. However, the reading experience wasn't particularly enjoyable for me (perhaps it's just me, or perhaps there are genuine issues). Some scenes were packed with information, and because I read too quickly, I could only retain a general impression of events: "An event occurred!" (Like a fill-in-the-blank exercise) "The event was resolved!" Adding to this, there are some points I personally find regrettable: the story is too short. It focuses solely on advancing the main plot, leaving many company singularities unexplored and the social aspects of the White Tower undeveloped. Even the hardworking female lead felt exhausting. Finally, the ending felt abrupt; I'm looking forward to the epilogue.

But Xiao Yu said she wasn't gentle or charming, and didn't know any of the needlework, music, or chess that women were supposed to know. He loved her half-sister instead, a gentle and lovely woman.

    It's alright. I'm adding an extra star because I really like Xiao Chu, Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Song. The only downside is that the world-building is rather limited, the cyberpunk elements aren't very strong, and the origin of the death rewind ability isn't fully resolved.

    This is a cyberpunk novel with a well-written and exciting plot. The oppression of the cyber world is depicted in great detail, and the female protagonist will lead humanity to liberation.

    It's a long novel, but very readable. The female protagonists in this author's works are all quirky and eccentric, but it's just too long to finish.

    The premise of this book, where the female protagonist is annoyed by something, is similar (even earlier than this one). The writing style is lighthearted, sarcastic, and nonsensical, while the content is heavy. I really like this kind of Western fantasy/Crazy element, but unfortunately, the ending feels a bit unsettling.
