Recommend Books on Your Shelf You'd Never Delete

Something worth rereading over and over after finishing.

Why Do Some Authors Like to Write in Such Flowery Language?

Those lines are so painfully awkward to read, but they insist on writing them that way. It feels like they're trying to make themselves sound cultured.

Please Recommend Newly Written Novels, Any Genre. I'll Give Them All Five Stars

My Long-Treasured Favorite Books

Sigh, There Are No More Masterpieces in Modern Fiction... I Can't Get Into Anything, It's All So Cringey.

Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting

I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...

I'm Extremely Picky and Out of Books. Only Recommend Absolute Masterpieces

If you like it, please leave a like and save it to your favorites!

Completed Stories That Make You Want to Keep Reading

Infinite Evolution, Death Train, Defying the Emperor's Order with Talent, Slay the Gods in the Mental Hospital, those stories about the young masters, Southeast, System... What else is good enough to keep reading without getting annoying?

Novels That Left Me Stunned for an Entire Year

This is just ridiculous!

Are There Really No High-Quality Feel-Good Stories?

There aren't any long, satisfying power fantasies anymore. They're all mindless and make the characters stupid. Disagree? Come argue with me.

Looking for Thought-Provoking Books

Looking for books with characters who are smart and capable. No brainless stories or pure wish fulfillment; I want something with depth. Even better if it explores traditional culture.

A Must-Read Book for Studying!

Stories Worth Reading a Second or Third Time

These are all books I've read and genuinely enjoyed. I'm sharing them with everyone.

Quiet and Engaging, Best Read with Some Thought

I've read most novels already.

How Many of You Have Written Novels That Nobody Reads?

A Marriage of Convenience, Full of Tension, With a Male Lead Who Gets Wildly Jealous

The male and female leads got together because of an arranged marriage, and they had no feelings for each other. After getting married, they agreed that each could do their own thing. Then they ran into each other at a bar, and the male lead got jealous, haha. Are there any books like that?

Anything Below 9.5 Is Mediocre, and Even Books Above 9.5 Have Their Tiers

Stuck in a Reading Slump, I Can't Continue After Reading a Little, Please Recommend Some Books

I’m Out of Books to Read. Don’t Bother Unless It Has Over 400,000 Readers. Ratings Don’t Matter Anymore

Looking for Obscure but Great Books, I'm Tired of Popular Ones

The popular stories all seem to have only slightly different plots, while everything else is practically identical. After reading too many of them, I get a little tired of it. I am looking for some lesser-known works to cleanse my eyes. Many thanks to all my brothers and sisters here.

I'm Tired of the Female-Oriented Romance Genre. Any Male-Oriented Novels Suitable for Women?
