I'm in a reading slump, so I'm recommending some books to help others avoid one. My ranking criteria are: First: A vivid imagination, or what people call a wild premise. Second: Good logic. Tell a story in a way that makes people believe it could really happen. Third: If the first two boxes are ticked, good writing is a bonus. I have to admit, some people can make even ordinary things fascinating. P.S. No self-recommendations, please. These are just my subjective picks, made by a lazy reader.

Transmigrating to the world of Naruto, there are no cheat codes, no cheat devices, no system, no grandpas, only a real world. Not having conjunctivitis or cataracts, not being born with all six of the above conditions, sounds tragic. But that's okay, just use your imagination... Ugh, knowledge is the primary productive force. What I mean is, in this world, some people are awesome because of their lineage, some are awesome because of their chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur), some are awesome because of cheat codes, and some have all three: lineage, chuunibyou, and cheat codes... Well, the main character in this book doesn't have any of those things. This is a story about a time traveler, the water-style ninja Sakura Haruno.
