Comment:
Darling is a short and sweet book from the Three Views Series, I kind of like the straight forwardness of Xin Gan, her dark humour is frank yet 'sarcastic'. Zheng Pian Ran's cool personality is amusing as well, he will actually ask his match making partner the perfume she wore in a very polite manner but in fact is for him to instruct his butler to blacklist the perfume so he will never sniff it every again. He even threw away his expensive blazer as it 'stinks' with the scent (or stench, haha!). Chen Yu Bai and An Xiao Li also make a special cameo in the middle of this book. Xiao Bai is a good friend of Zheng Pian Ran, that explains their similar cool personality. As Your Dream / Make It True is also part of the Three Views Series.
Bai Suan Ji (White Calculating), etc, is from the Night Series; interesting to know that the novelist uses similar protagonists'' names from Streamer Series as the books portray the previous life of the 6 brothers (with different storyline). I am not really a fan of ancient novels because I find some of them pretty challenging to read due to the different terms used, etc, but Bai Suan Ji is the story of Chen Yu Bai, another combination of a brilliant man with a cute silly girl and I like this ancient novel as well. I read the third epilogue of Bai Suan Ji from the book itself, Chen Yu Bai and Ji Xiao Li had a daughter, Chen Zhi An, a beautiful girl who is their only child. This cute epilogue is published in the paperback novel. I am looking forward to the completion of her other books in the Night Series!
The New Series consists of titles by Big Grey Wolf with Wings such as Zi Shi (Midnight), etc. As I am quite new to Chinese novels, hence please pardon if there is any translation error, etc. (Please note there are some sexual references / mature content; Readers discretion advised) (Click on titles for links)

'What I actually want to do is to install a switch in my heart, able to turn on or off at any time. This way, I will love you if I want to, when I don't love you, I will really no longer love.'
Comment: As Long as You Love Me (Switch of Love) reminds me of Sealed with a Kiss, but I like the latter better as this storyline is darker. Fei Wo Si Cun did mentioned that she wrote this novel out of pressure/fun hence it is quite a short story. I feel that it is still a good story to read. If you are one who feel that the enjoyment readers get in the process of reading is more important, you may want to give this a chance.

Comment: I personally enjoyed reading Chinese novels set in the early 1900s, somehow I just liked the settings and the ways of life during that period of time. It is due to that reason that I decided to read “Color of Night” and “Too Late to Say Loving You”, the latter is also because of the adapted drama. The adapted drama, ‘Too Late to Say I Love You’ is great and I would recommend anyone who has not watched it to give it a chance, unlike the novel it is a happy ending people!

Comment: I thought the storyline was rather typical at first, however as I read further, realised that there is more than meets the eye. A little dramatic, anyway, glad that its a happy ending. :)
I read and like some books by this novelist, Hong Jiu 红九. Might update again for future
title/review. If You Love Me, Speak Up! male protagonist is 3 years
younger than the girl...and she is his teacher...the guy might be younger in terms of age but is more mature in character. I very much enjoy reading this novel and like the ending whereby the novelist recap on why the guy is attracted to the girl in the first place, which is not mention at the beginning of the story. Encounter is doom, Fall in love is Destiny is quite a lengthy book for me but I find it quite an interesting read. The female protagonist might not be the nicest girl around but I like her guts, though sometimes a little too stubborn, she wants to protect herself hence was careful not to easily let anyone in her heart. Feng Hua Xue Yue consists of three short stories, I prefer reading short stories from time to time as I am quite impatient to finish books too lengthy occasionally. There seems to be quite good reviews for Mo Dao Wei Liao Jun Xin Zui as a funny and nice book; will give it a chance when I feel like reading ancient novel in future.

Gu Quan (汩泉) was born in the month of June, in Shan Xi province. Quiet by nature and is not the typical Leo personality traits. Preferred simple lifestyle and believe nothing is impossible.
Comment:
Happen to chance upon the book, Substitute Bride; not too familiar with the author but find the story interesting. Later on, realise there is another book by the same novelist, Amnesia Bride. Both titles are kind of link because of the characters and their relationship. Somehow, Reading it reminds me of the Chinese drama, Cuo Dian Yuan Yang / Xi Dian Yuan Yang. I personally prefer contemporary novels and have not been reading ancient novels since Ballad of the Desert (Da Mo Yao). Checking out ancient novels once in a while can be quite refreshing.

Set in the Han Dynasty. The female protagonist Yu Jin (Jin Yu) was raised by a pack of wolves as an infant and was rescue by a man as a child, grew up she is later entangled with two men, Huo Qu Bing, a handsome General who is related to the Han Imperial Family. And Meng Jiu who is warm and kind-hearted.
Comment:
It is a pleasure to read the story of “Da Mo Yao” by Tong
Hua as it is fascinating that Jin Yu is raised by the pack of wolves, able
to communicate with the brother wolf and her real birth identity remains a
mystery. I like the straightforward and light-hearted storyline. Tong Hua
portrays 霍去病 Huo Qu
Bing’s character mischievous yet charming at the same time, you can’t help but
fall in love with him as you read on.
 |
| Second part of Novel |
However, it is a different ending for “Da Mo Yao” as the novel ended with Huo Qu Bing feigns death to gain freedom and live happily with Jin Yu and their children. Quite a twist in history as Tong Hua feels that its such a pity for a great hero to passed on at such a young age, hence Huo Qu Bing comes back alive in her novel; it is after all a fiction novel.
 |
| Huo Qu Bing |
Some favourite scene from the novel:
~♥ Huo Qu Bing storms into the room
while Jin Yu is bathing and he abducts her.
~♥ Jin Yu dancing for Huo Qu Bing at
the banquet.
~♥ Jin Yu’s ‘conversation’ with her
pet pigeons given to her by Meng Jiu.
In the past I used to read only English novels, only started reading Chinese novels due to my interest in dramas adapting from novels such as “Sealed with a Kiss” and “Da Mo Yao”, etc. Happen to discovered this novelist - 叶落无心 and have been reading some of her novels. Interesting stories with good sense of humour! 
There do not seem to have any English version of her novels available hence for now it is only for readers who are fluent in Chinese. As I am quite new to Chinese novels, hence please pardon if there is any translation error, etc. (Please note there are some sexual references / mature content; Readers discretion advised).
Just to share and wrote some summaries of her books. (Click on title for link)
