See allIn a Terrible Reading Slump: I Drop 9.8-Rated Books After Ten Chapters and 9.7-Rated Ones After Five
I'm so out of books to read, but I'm incredibly picky. For "Ten Thousand People Are Browsing", I made it only thirty chapters before dropping it. I used to read "Dragon King" past chapter 400, but now I dropped "Slay the Gods" after just twenty chapters.

10 Out of 10 is more than enough. It's truly well-written. For someone like me who reads books and watches TV a lot, this book is genuinely excellent. Of all the historical novels I've read, it's arguably the best in every aspect. The rating is actually a bit low. This is a female-centric novel, and I genuinely love the female lead. The author portrays her incredibly vividly.
As a seasoned book lover nearing fifty, I recommend giving this a read. The author's writing is commendable, and the values presented are sound. It blends national sentiment and patriotism with everyday family matters and familial bonds. The story is complete and truly a masterpiece.
Reading is subjective, and I've read book reviews as well. Many people think it's inferior to *Xi Hua Zhi*, but I personally feel they are on completely different levels. This book has a feel of a miniature version of *Dream of the Red Chamber*. The female protagonist has a broad vision and a unique perspective!
Another great book since *Xi Hua Zhi*. The plot is intricately woven, comprehensive, and logically clear. I've been following it for two days straight, staying up until 2 or 3 AM each night, not wanting to skip a chapter for fear of missing something. I've read many books over the years, and while there have been good ones, these two are definitely the most memorable so far. 👍👍
A rare gem of a book lately, I devoured it in one sitting. The writing is fluid, the plot natural and vivid, and while there are many characters, it doesn't feel cluttered. Numerous foreshadowing elements are cleverly resolved, showcasing the author's skill! 👍 The female protagonist has a broad perspective, a strong sense of justice, and decisive methods.
I really want to share my personal experience. This book is truly excellent! I've wanted to read it many times when I was in a reading slump, but I was always deterred by those terrible reviews. This time, I finally had nothing else to read, so I started reading, and then I was hooked! It's very well-written and incredibly engaging. Please don't nitpick!
This is another book I really enjoyed reading after "Xi Hua Zhi". The author's writing skills are solid, and the language is very comfortable to read. At first, the character relationships felt a bit like reading "Dream of the Red Chamber," and it took some time to sort things out.
At first, I wasn't inclined to read it because of the title, but once I clicked in, I couldn't put it down. The female lead is beautiful, both inside and out, and most importantly, she's incredibly intelligent. It showed me that beyond time travel and reincarnation, the wisdom of the ancients shouldn't be underestimated, and the other characters in the story are also quite clever.
This is a rare gem among Tomato's books. It avoids the tedious palace intrigue and family feuds, and the romance is written naturally and smoothly, without any awkwardness. The male and female protagonists are morally upright, decisive, kind, and ambitious, with a strong sense of national responsibility as well as personal love.
It's normal to not remember the relationships between the characters at first, as they come from prominent families and have powerful social circles. Every character has their own ending, and every plot hole is filled. The book is excellent in portraying the rich heritage and character of the noble families, as well as the well-developed personalities of the ordinary characters.
