Crime, Detective, and Suspense Recommendations
Supernatural Taoist Priest Stories with Powerful Backgrounds
Looking for Quick Transmigration Stories With One-World-At-a-Time Plots and a Small Golden Finger
The golden finger is memory and a small space. Transmigrating to each world is like starting over. Another possibility is that every life brings disasters, both natural and man-made, which the protagonist gets through using what they learned in previous lives.
Looking for Novels About Ghost Wives
I hope the protagonist isn't an idiot.
The Male Lead Has Great Emperor Cultivation, Belongs to No Faction, and Roams the World with His Sword

Tomb Raider Notes, Where Characters Can't Die, or Tomb Raider Notes: Mysterious, Powerful, Beautiful, and Tragic
I'd like to read books similar to Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Pretending to Be Mysterious, Yet Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic (Echoes of the Past in Tomb Raiding).
I Watched Catching the Wind, Chasing Shadows. Any Similar Novels? I Really Want to Read One
For example, the protagonist could be a retired officer who returns to the field, or a rising newcomer. Stories with or without cheat abilities are fine. I want crime-solving, not supernatural mysteries, and I want to read about the battle of wits between the police and fugitives.
Looking for Quick Transmigration, One-on-Many, Easy, Mindless Reading, Nothing Too Serious
Looking for something like "The Supporting Character Has a Harem-Protagonist Aura and a Spending System". The heroine is incredibly beautiful, soft and sweet, and adored by everyone. Everyone she meets falls for her, and she has a distinctive charm that makes her unforgettable. One heroine and multiple love interests.
Ensemble Cast Stories with Excellent Writing
Rebirth, Fortune-Telling, Ghost-Hunting, Scumbag-Ex Bashing, an Incredibly Handsome Male Lead, and a Strong Heroine
Looking for books similar to "Slap Your Face! The Mystic Grandmaster Returns and Stops Pretending". The heroine is a mystic grandmaster who fails her tribulation, is reborn in the modern era, and is sent to a psychiatric hospital by her family...
Looking for Books. I've Run Out of Things to Read
Looking for great reads. Please don't recommend books with bad blurbs. Stories set in a beast world would be ideal.
I'm Out of Books to Read! Any Good Recommendations With Great Writing?
Ensemble casts, infinite-flow stories, anything good is fine~~
Strongly Recommend The Foolish Game of the Gods!
Looking for something like The Gods' Fool. It's so good!!! The premise really gets me, and Cheng Shi is just so cool! The logic is airtight and every twist builds on the last. Highly recommend 👍
Any Recommendations for Good Books? I’m Really in a Reading Slump
I want something like "Shocking: After Being Reborn, the Scheming Concubine’s Daughter Turns Over a New Leaf". Preferably completed.
I'm Out of Books to Read, Recommend Fantasy Stories With a Reborn Villainess
Looking for books similar to "I Just Want to Finish the Story, but the Empress Won't Let Me".

I gave you 5 stars because of Shangguan Yao; she was such a wonderful ghost. But I was really heartbroken because Shangguan Yao didn't end up with Yu Xiaobao. I cried when I saw the later parts of the story.
My goodness, how can a novel be so good? This is my favorite novel I've ever read. The beginning was quite scary, but the scarier you were, the more you wanted to read. I suggest everyone give it a try; maybe you'll like it too! It's a pity he let Shangguan Yao down, which makes me quite sad.
Author, could you please reconcile the ending for Shangguan Yao and Xiao Bao? I really want to see them end up together, a carefree couple, one human and one ghost 😢😢
I wish Yu Xiaobao could be with Shangguan Yao.
This book is very well written; the worst part is why the ghost didn't end up with him—that's the most regrettable aspect.
The ending was such a pity; Xiao Bao didn't end up with Shangguan Yao. I'm so sad.
I finished watching it in 5 days, just like the withdrawal symptoms I experienced when watching the TV series "In the Midst of a Blizzard." I think the author's writing is pretty good. It was published in 2020. I saw the beginning of the novel while watching videos and thought it looked interesting, so I decided to read it. I didn't expect it to be so good.
It's very realistic, the story is full of twists and turns. No wonder it has so many chapters! It's really exciting, full of suspense. I personally think the language and logic are excellent, definitely worth reading! You'll definitely benefit from reading it! You can even learn some writing tips!
It would be even better if he could be with Shangguan Yao, but I'll still support him!
I think the final ending could be that Shangguan Yao didn't die, but instead became human and stayed with Yu Xiaobao.
