Some books that are alike in a way to 'passed like a shadow novel' are 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'. It has that duality which can be seen as a kind of shadow within a person. 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' too has a sense of a hidden self, like a shadow that grows darker as the story progresses. Additionally, 'The Scarlet Letter' has a shadow of guilt and secrecy that pervades the entire narrative, much like what might be found in 'passed like a shadow novel'.
One book that might be similar is 'The Great Gatsby'. It also has elements of mystery and a somewhat shadowy atmosphere in terms of the characters' hidden desires and pasts. Another could be 'Wuthering Heights', with its complex relationships and a sense of something lurking beneath the surface, much like a shadow. And 'Dracula' has a dark, shadowy feel to it with the presence of the vampire which is often associated with the unknown and the hidden in the shadows.
I'm not familiar with the 'With Friends Like These' novel specifically. However, if it's a contemporary novel about complex friendships, 'Big Little Lies' might be in the same vein. It delves into the relationships among a group of women friends, with secrets, drama, and ultimately a strong connection. Also, 'The Secret History' has a group of friends at its center, with a dark and mysterious plot that might be comparable depending on the nature of 'With Friends Like These'.
I think 'The Fault in Our Stars' can be considered. It's about the relationship between two young people, and like 'Just Like You, A Novel', it shows the different aspects of their connection. 'Eleanor & Park' also deals with the relationship between two characters in a detailed way. And 'Pride and Prejudice' is relevant too as it shows the relationship between different characters with different personalities, similar to what we might expect from 'Just Like You, A Novel'.
It could be about the transience of life. Just as a shadow passes quickly, perhaps the events and characters in the novel are a representation of how fleeting life is and how things can pass by without leaving a strong mark.
One similar light novel could be 'A Certain Magical Index'. It has a complex world - building with various unique characters and powers. Another option is 'Overlord', which features an interesting take on the protagonist being trapped in a game - like world. Also, 'Sword Art Online' has some parallels in terms of the immersive fictional world it creates and the character development within it.
Sure. 'Pride and Prejudice' could be a similar one. It also focuses on relationships and the development of feelings between characters. The complex emotions and social interactions are somewhat alike.
Sure. 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy has a similar desolate and dark winter - like atmosphere. It's about a father and son's journey in a post - apocalyptic world.
Well, 'The Things They Carried' by Tim O'Brien is somewhat similar. It tells stories of soldiers in a war, just as 'Guernica' might be related to war - related fiction. Also, 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut has elements of war and the absurdity of it that could be comparable to what 'Guernica' offers in terms of its exploration of difficult themes.
Another one could be 'A Record of Mortal's Cultivation to Immortality'. Although it's more focused on cultivation, it has a complex world - building like 'Brocade Heart like Jade Novel' where the characters have to navigate different situations and relationships, and there are also themes of love and loyalty interwoven in the story.
There are many novels that could potentially be similar. If 'Cold Moon Like Frost Novel' has a lot of mystery in it, then 'The Name of the Wind' might be a good comparison. It has a mysterious protagonist with a past full of secrets, and the world - building is very immersive. In addition, if it's more of a tragic love story, then 'Romeo and Juliet' in a way could be related, although it's a classic play. But the idea of star - crossed lovers is there, and the emotional intensity could be somewhat comparable.
Another is 'The Notebook'. It's a very touching love story. The way the characters' love endures through time and difficulties is beautifully portrayed.
