Reading Status: I have only read Book 3 but I sort of roughly know what happened in Book 1 and 2
Thoughts:
I was not that interested in the setting so I sort of only read Book 2 which was set in the Imperial Harem. I guess I found it okay but it did not have much of the imperial harem struggle and politics I was hoping for. As for Book 1 and 2, both sort of revolves around solving mysteries, since Book 1 is about the forensic scientist and Book 2 about a police officer. Book 4 is the only one that does not have transmigration but other than that I am quite clueless about Book 4.
