Books That Can Hold the Attention of a Veteran Reader of More Than Ten Years
Can anyone recommend a novel for a reader who's been at it for ten years? I want something I can stick with. I've already read most of the topics in today's novels, and I can't get through more than ten or twenty chapters. I'm having such a hard time.

I Need Ancient-Era Food and Farming Novels!
Looking for stories where the heroine transmigrates to ancient times, cooks, and builds a prosperous life. CP or no CP is fine. Not too many awful characters, and the male lead shouldn’t have too high a status. No palace intrigue, please. Great writing and airtight logic are a must.
Looking for Food-Themed Stories Rated 9.0 or Above, with Upright Values
If there are any set in prehistoric times, that would be even better, something like Transmigrating to the Beast World: A Foraging Journal.
I Want Pure Historical Romance!
I'm tired of transmigration and rebirth stories. I just want pure historical romance.

Looking for books like *The Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder Doesn't Follow the Usual Path*. Please, I want the heroine to come from a loving family and for nothing to happen to them later. She shouldn't need to rely on the male lead. She shouldn't be the type to act coy and cling to him, either. I want her to be rational and emotionally stable...

Recommend a Good Book Like Xi Hua Zhi
Any good books like *The Blossoming Peony*? The female lead transmigrates, but she shouldn't be arrogant or foolish, and there should be no angst. Every author seems determined to write transmigrated female leads as omnipotent goddesses. Hua Zhi is the only one who feels truly real and admirable.

The chapters are named after food, but the story is not about food. The true identity of the heroine is revealed throughout the entire text, with clear descriptions and fascinating details. The only one who moved the male protagonist was the resolute and decisive little queen.
Yes, the storyline is novel and the descriptions are vivid and interesting, especially the descriptions of food, which makes you hungry!
Very nice to look at. I'm quite picky and don't like to read too long stories, nor do I like the heroine's cheating films. Ah, the spring banquet is nothing, the prosperous age is stable. They are all very special to me! ! ! ! ! !
When Qingyuan passed away, I still couldn't help but cry. It's a very good book. It doesn't fall into the cliché of rebirth novels. The love between the male and female protagonists is touching. The only regret is that there are not enough descriptions of the love between the male and female protagonists. But even so, their love and cherishment are still unforgettable. Highly recommended
Finally, the wind picked up. A breeze swept away the clouds in the sky, and a full moon hung high in the sky, reflected in the bright eyes of the couple clinging tightly below. The bright moonlight shines through this small courtyard, the city of Quanzhou under the night sky, the capital city thousands of miles away, and every inch of land in the great Zhou Dynasty. Since then, the clouds and seas have become clear, and the mountains and rivers are full of shadows. No more regrets. This is a sentence in the book. Their love story is not dramatic, but a life like gurgling water and a bright moon. A book I like very much, highly recommended
The story is wonderful from beginning to end. Compared with the writing style of the first hundred chapters, which is eloquent and lays out the overall situation without haste, it is really a pity to stop at just over 200 chapters. Well written and well thought out. After reading it carefully, it is not difficult to find that the author overturned the original concept and changed the suspense direction of "rebirth" halfway through. Spoilers ahead in Chapter 209.
I finally know the reason for the high score of this novel. It has a beginning and an end, the process is very exciting, and the catalog is very special. I like it very much.
The prologue of the entire article cannot be separated from the word "eating". I like the comfortable feeling of flowing clouds and flowing water. The wording is relatively gentle and very comfortable.
In fact, the writing is really good, the plot is well written, the writing style is good, and the chapter names are closely related to the plot. Why is it not ranked 9? I think it's because every character is a good mother. I remember this hatred time and time again, and then let the villain continue to be a monster. In the age of fast food, writing like this is not refreshing and is quite frustrating.
After reading a lot of books, Shen Duanyan is the best male protagonist! When you marry, you should marry Shen Duanyan!
