   Curator note

   (Four stars is more appropriate, worth reading if you're looking for something to read) The advantage is that the relationship between the young couple is the most captivating part of the story. The various playful interactions between the two, the author's original setting, and the gradual unfolding of the couple's mutual sacrifices all resonated with me. Now that I'm reading the author's second book, I'm truly a warrior of pure love, and the level of emotional depth is absolutely top-notch! The downside is that the initial character's personality is overly unappealing and unlikable, and both the main and supporting characters are somewhat monotonous. Therefore, even with some supporting elements, it feels a bit bland, yet not quite worth abandoning. Looking back after reading the later parts, the foreshadowing in the earlier parts feels uninspired, almost nonexistent, lacking any real tension or climax. Many readers might have given up before even reaching the most exciting moments. Personally, I think the main plot only really kicks in and becomes engaging around chapter 50 when the two characters enter the illusion. There was some foreshadowing in the beginning, but it didn't really connect to the main story. Later on, I thought there might be a twist, but the author opted for the most conservative approach. So the ending wasn't particularly captivating; it just unfolded as expected. Based on my personal rational analysis and objective evaluation, I think four stars is more appropriate, but the young couple suffered too much. I like this story, so I'm giving it five stars. I'll write the rest of the review after I finish reading it! I'm going to happily read the side stories now. It really is all about shipping the young couples!

Just before he starved to death, a fishmonger finally managed to sell him off at a rock-bottom price. According to the fishmonger, his second owner had a severely damaged mental sea and was so poor he could barely afford food or clothes. He could only afford a secondhand mermaid like No. 55, whose soothing abilities were weak. No. 55: Oh no, I’m going to starve again.

   200,000 Words is probably the shortest short story I've read recently. I finished it in one go, and afterwards I felt like it wasn't enough! It's a sweet and sour story about a wolfish alpha and a naive uke surviving in the wilderness. At first, it felt a bit disjointed, and I thought it was going to be a romance story. But most of it really is about surviving in the wilderness, farming, building infrastructure, and lots of sex. It's a story of a lonely alpha and a widowed uke who falls in love after an arranged marriage. The ending was super fast, what a pity!

   Just read it! The main story is complete. It's a story about a tea master raising a child with a domineering CEO/lawyer. There are no spoilers in the whole story. Although there's definitely not much logic, it's not a melodramatic story either. If you're looking for something to read, this is a must-read! It's super sweet, featuring an adorable tea master and a domineering CEO raising a child. This short and cute story is a must-read! The extra chapters are also super sweet.

   Curator note

   [Excellent! Excellent!] As the title suggests, I was initially hesitant to get into this, but the author's writing was surprisingly sweet and sour, a truly delightful read. It starts with a young couple having a disagreement, but their subsequent mutual support and their poignant past, even the epilogue without a marriage subplot, all left a lasting impression. Highly recommended! This is probably one of the few purely modern novels I've ever given a five-star rating to.

   A typical post-apocalyptic rebirth and supernatural power novel, the protagonist is a doctor and the other is a soldier. (I've already finished reading it, and the extras are all updated. The whole story is without any spoilers, the author's writing is smooth, and the character settings and plot flow seamlessly.) It's a bit of a mixed bag. It starts with rebirth and stockpiling supplies in the apocalypse, then the two help each other, and then there's some growth. Later on, it focuses more on infrastructure building and political intrigue. The main romance doesn't really begin until chapter 118. The romance isn't particularly outstanding, but it's a steady, gradual development. There are also some interesting little vignettes later on. Overall, it's worth reading when you're looking for something to read.

   I've read up to chapter 100, with a few extra chapters to finish. It's a rebirth-themed, fast-paced story, mainly focusing on romance and career development. Nothing particularly original or cheesy. It's still the typical trope of a strong female lead but an even stronger male lead. However, the female lead is portrayed as a wealthy heiress, which adds a touch of humor in some parts.

    I finished reading this book a long time ago; it was kind of my gateway into post-apocalyptic novels. I don't quite remember the shock I felt when I first read it, but roughly I recall the early episodes being hilarious about the clueless protagonist trying to integrate into society. Of course, the core of the comedy is tragedy, accompanied by the harsh realities of society. The protagonist, from a human perspective, also faces many choices and hardships, but his character is definitely the coolest. Another major highlight of the post-apocalyptic and cataclysmic setting is the author's excellent writing style. The entire book is without any major flaws, the interactions are very sweet, and it's a great read before bed!

    This is a lighthearted, sweet urban romance novel with a touch of the entertainment industry, featuring a double male pregnancy and some conflicting relationships and tragic backstories. The core premise is pure love, making it very sweet. The author's writing is exceptional, which is surprising considering it's from Jinjiang Literature City… In short, it's worth reading if you're looking for something to read. Avoid novels with a strong male pregnancy element! Also, note that the atypical strong male lead seems more rough around the edges, which I don't particularly enjoy! He's the biggest threat when you feel safe and secure, but also when you feel no danger.

    The little octopus is so cute! I've read over 70 chapters so far, and it's getting a bit tedious towards the end; I'm worried about a bad ending. (Review after completion) I've finished reading it. The part about the little octopus and the wooden puppet in the early and middle stages was really good, both the plot and the interactions were great. The part about the romance between the little octopus and Shen the octopus was also enjoyable. The main plot of saving the world and uncovering the mystery of his origins is a bit cliché, but not terrible... The part about the younger sister was quite absurd and fairytale-like. But... The further I went, the more I felt the obvious perfunctoriness and endless transitions. The ending was too rushed, I'm disappointed and sad [crying].

    I read it all in one go; it's a very light and healing story. However, the issue with the romance is that the characters' personalities are too independent, creating a sense of unease due to the multiple storylines. Fortunately, the author managed to balance it out without overemphasizing it. The secondary couple appears in the epilogue, so it's worth reading with caution! Four stars!

Compared to the food chain, the plot seems to have hit a roadblock for the author, but the romance and the ideas expressed are stronger and more sophisticated. There are many memorable supporting characters, such as the teacher, Xihe, the administrator X, and the silly boy. The mechanical dog Turing, as Si Chen's weapon, is given a fair amount of attention, but not too much either. As for the romance, it's a perfect match, which fits the author's settings and tastes perfectly. Si Chen (the author's bottom) is always the coolest!

    Overall 4 stars, but I personally give it 5 stars. Some of the settings and plot were amazing, and the ending left me wanting more. The relationship between the protagonist and his mother in the middle made me feel very connected. The cowardly mother, the gambling father, and the broken him can be considered the beginning of the protagonist's life. The plot unfolds seamlessly after each character's "rebirth," showcasing the author's significant improvement. It's a work with profound meaning, revealing the author's intention to express certain philosophical themes. However, I'm just reading for fun! It's a protagonist-shou (bottom-focused) story, with the gong's (top-ranking character's) identity clearly defined. Each volume's short stories are also engaging, though the later parts might have tried to explore too much, becoming a bit overwhelming. The gong becomes somewhat of a background character, even a little narcissistic at the end, but that's not a major issue. There are other well-developed characters as well. I really enjoyed it and it's worth reading.
