😋I recommend the following novels to high school students: 1. "Heaven at the End of the Firework": It shows the life of a middle school student in the 1990s. It portrays the life of the students at that time. The love story is full of ups and downs, making you unable to stop. 2. "Basketball Hero": It was about Ying Xiong, a basketball genius with a limited body size, who used the medicine and pills of the King of Medicine's descendant to become a core player from a peripheral player and dominate the basketball world. 3. "I am a Martial God in the City": It was about Ye Fei, a middle school student, who used his previous life's memories and martial arts skills to re-embark on the path of martial arts cultivation. It was a wonderful show of face-slapping. He had high martial arts skills, high IQ, knew how to make money, and loved to pick up girls. It was definitely a novel with unlimited coquettishness. 4. "Reborn National School Hunk: Killer on Campus": It was about a special agent who transmigrated into a useless middle school student. He used a cheat to turn from a wretched man into a school hunk who was popular in the school. He was invincible in flirting with girls. It was wonderful and interesting. 5. "Book Friends Teach Me How to Fall in Love": It was about a middle school student who realized that his daily life had been written into a novel by the system. He interacted with the book friends and received missions. He felt that his small goal could be bigger, filled with daily life, love, strangeness, and superpowers.
