Any Original Stories? I’m Sick of These Same Old Popular Plots
Recommend some fresh, original fantasy novels. No mainstream tropes, no lousy rebirth stories, no urban novels where the protagonist shows off and bumps into a beauty around the corner, and no apocalyptic stories with superpowers or a System. Are there any fantasy novels outside those categories? Ideally, something with a fresh premise and theme.
Any More Sophisticated Romance Novels?
No love at first sight, online romances, or lightning-fast relationships!! The writing must be good, no beginner-level amateur prose!! The protagonists need to have brains. Do not give me angsty romances!!!

Any books with a line like this? The male lead says, “I saw your ex at the hospital today.” The heroine asks, “What happened to him? Is his stomach acting up?

Please, fellow readers, recommend a book that’s angsty from beginning to end, the kind that makes your heart ache, and where the male lead regrets everything in the end.
Sophisticated Angst with Smart Characters and a Logical Plot
Looking for books similar to Palace Wall Willow. It doesn’t have to be the kind where the male and female leads must fight to the death, with one of them inevitably dying. There can be national hatred and family feuds separating them, or a divide between righteousness and evil. The story should be logical and reflect the thinking of normal people.

Looking for Sophisticated Angsty Novels Without Romance
I seriously can't take it. Why are all these angsty novels about domineering CEOs regretting things? Are there no more sophisticated heartbreakers?

Looking for books similar to "Demon War Young Master, Don't Mess with Me". “Can't you just talk to me? Don't touch me!” “What, I've been away for just a few days and now I'm not allowed to touch you?” “If I ruin you here today, do you think Li Jintian will be able to stomach it?” Amid the flashes of lightning...
Please Recommend This Book (Begging You, Experts)
The male and female leads are from two different planes. For some reason, they seem to team up to explore a world. They start in the ocean, then go to other places, and new teammates join them along the way. Please help! I read it a while ago and can't find it now. (It might not be on Fanqie.)

Superb! The female lead is smart and ambitious, not a naive or pushover, but a kind and wise woman! The first 100 chapters are tough on the female lead, then the male lead suffers later. He only loves her from beginning to end, remaining indifferent to other women, only kind to her. Therefore, there are no other women in his romantic storyline.
The author's writing is really good, and the plot is quite reasonable, with much less melodrama compared to other formulaic novels. Both the male and female leads seem to have personality flaws and are both very starved for love. Don't rush to criticize the female lead's irresistible charm; what she truly wants is simple: a simple, happy family.
I especially love this kind of writing; it suits my taste. Other authors should take a look. This author dares to write differently from you. Don't always hang yourself on one tree. Although the two eventually reconciled, the middle part was quite exciting, unlike other authors who suffer terribly at the end and only have a "wife-chasing crematorium" scene later on.
This is utterly baffling!!! Why is such a great novel rated so low? 😢 Although there are a few punctuation breaks or awkward phrasing, they don't affect the overall plot... Author, keep it up! I absolutely love this novel! 👍
The beginning was so agonizing; the female lead suffered terribly. The male lead constantly targeted and tormented her, only showing her kindness at the very end. They later married and had children, which could be considered a happy ending. It's definitely a classic case of "the male lead torments me a thousand times, yet I still love him like my first love."
It's a wonderful story with many heart-wrenching, funny, and tear-jerking moments. The happy ending provides a pretty good and satisfying conclusion. I really like Lu Chuantang's name. It always reminds me of the line, "How can a mere breeze through the hall cause a mountain torrent?" Perhaps this also hints that Wen Sui likes Lu Chuantang, which is why she chose to forgive him later.
It's been a long time since I've finished a romance novel completely (hence the 10/10 score!!! Because it's really easy to abandon a story on Tomato Book). I read it without missing a single chapter. Thank you, author, for writing such a story. It gave my restless heart and pre-sleep anxiety a brief respite.
This is a very, very good book. The writing is exceptionally high-level; there aren't long monologues, and emotions are conveyed through subtle actions and details. It's a bittersweet read. Both Sui Sui and Xiao Chuan are a bit yandere (obsessive and possessive), yet they both desperately want things to be good. Is it contradictory? Quite contradictory.
I watched it all in one go; it was really good. Sui Sui encountered four men in her life. Lu Qian could be considered the cause of her initial destruction; then there was Xiao Chuan, whom Sui Sui truly loved, but she was able to forgive him even after being imprisoned because she loved Xiao Chuan, not the inhuman Lu Chuantang; then there was Jiang Sheng, whom she loved, but only for the man she…
This is one of the few novels I could actually finish reading. It's a short story series, a reunion after a long separation, and a childhood sweetheart trope. The beginning is angsty, but the ending is a dramatic "wife-chasing-after-the-wife" scenario. Lu Chuantang: As long as I can be with you, that's fine. How about I be your male best friend, and call you every three days?
