Looking for books similar to "Transmigrate to the Sixties with a Space! Accidentally Kidnap a Handsome Man." Quality 9.9-rated period pieces, something fresh and not clichéd.
Can I Get Some Normal Stories Set in a Particular Era?
No silly, naive heroines and no characters suddenly getting stupid. The male lead should be loyal and virtuous. Kids are fine, as are rebirth, transmigration into a book, transmigration, or native-born protagonists. Please, recommend something normal. I'm losing my mind trying to find a book.
A Background Character Who Doesn't Derail the Plot, Mostly Watches from the Sidelines, and Isn't Romance-Obsessed
A minor character who doesn't disrupt the plot, only gets involved now and then and mostly watches from the sidelines. No lovesick idiots!!! (Lovesick characters make my head pound.)
Any More Realistic Stories Set in a Particular Era? Looking for Recs
A lot of period dramas these days have living conditions better than ours now. It feels a bit fake.

It's good-looking, with a compact plot and smooth twists. The author's writing skills are good. The writing gave me a very familiar feeling, like some modern literary works I've read before. Especially the description of the environment is a bit like Shen Congwen's prose, but the concise description seems really tired. I originally read the novel just to relax my mind, which didn't meet my purpose. I plan to put it on the bookshelf for the time being and stop reading it someday.
Nice ! Different chronological articles. As an old bookworm, I have read all kinds of chronological articles, and I almost vomited after reading them. I didn't expect to find this book by accident. It's really good. The author's writing style is excellent [like]
This is a novel that I have read without any discomfort during the process. The heroine has space, but she does not use this space for personal use. It is just used to store items in their home and is rarely used. It is usually used by her brother and the hero. The heroine has a delicate character, but The male protagonist and his brother listen to everything they say, and they don't mess around or run around. The protagonists and supporting characters in it are all people with righteousness in their hearts, and the aunt is also a quick person. I rarely read such a long novel and I finished it, which shows that this novel is really good [Like] It is worth reading.
I like this type of book. The author's writing is very good. Come on. ヾ(✿゚▽゚)ノ
Why is the 7.2 Rating so low? It is obviously well written, but when I first read it, I felt that the prose was too strong. But it gets better and better later on, the characters are all vivid and three-dimensional, and the story is also very well written. When I was halfway through, I really wanted to jump to the end to see who is the final boss. Haha, I also really want to see the author write a long and powerful plot.
It's a good-looking book, with excellent plot, characters, and detailed descriptions. It has a full sense of the times, and the story flows smoothly, so you don't have to worry about skipping scenes at all. The lines take you back to that era, and the paragraphs invite you to recall the past. Excellent work [Like][Like][Like][Like][Like] The second time I read it, I read it carefully. It is so rare to be able to write about that era in a beautiful and interesting way. The writing is so good that I forget about the scars and only remember that that time, that place and that group of people were all beautiful [like][like][like]
I heard that it was written about the scenery and stories of my hometown, so I came to read it. It's good. The author's writing style is very good, smooth and natural, and the characterization of the characters, psychology, environment, etc. Is very delicate! It restores the characteristics of that era and can withstand scrutiny and verification. If it is not about age and experience, it is because of a lot of information. This article is not a cool article, nor is it a simple article. It can be called literature. Very good, come on! As a follow-up, in this book, the author controls the characters very skillfully. What kind of people say what kind of words, it is not inconsistent at all, which is rare! The language fits the role play perfectly!
The characters are full and three-dimensional, the environment is described delicately, and the author's writing style is very good. I saw many scenes and events from my childhood, which are in line with the characteristics of the times. The protagonist knows how to keep a low profile during special times. Preservation is a kind of wisdom.
The author's writing style is exquisite and needs to be understood carefully. [Cool] The heroine, hero, and supporting actor are all stunning characters. This area is not a place where most people are familiar with the customs and customs. Come onᵎ(•̀㉨•́)و ̑̑ Come on
I'm a bookworm, and the author's writing style is really worthy of praise. I loved the storyline and characterization. [Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post]
