How Many of You Have Written Novels That Nobody Reads?
Any Low-Key Novels Focused on Everyday Life?
No System, and not too much face-slapping.
Everyday Food Stories, Nothing Too Over-the-Top
Food Novels That Make Great Mealtime Reading
Nothing too basic, please. I want something well written, ideally with detailed descriptions of the food, but without overly flowery prose!!!!

As the title says, send me your new books and let's support each other.
No Romance! No Romance! No Romance! Highly Recommended, Thanks ʱªʱªʱª (ᕑᗢᓫ
Overlooked Masterpieces
Cultivation, fantasy, or historical fiction are all fine.
Are There Any Foodie Novels on Tomato?
Male- or female-oriented novels are both fine. No harems with three thousand beauties. Either no female lead, or just one. For female-oriented novels, anything goes, since I’m a total hypocrite about this. No brainless characters who get dumbed down!
This Poor Daoist Is at the End of His Rope. Can Anyone Grant Me a Good Book?
Is life even worth living when there's nothing to read? I'll trade 50 years of being single for all you fellow Daoists coming through for me. (A good person stays single for life.)
Food Stories, But No Absurd Pricing: No Selling a Scallion Pancake for a Fortune!
Food-themed stories, good food-themed stories. Please, I'm in a reading slump.
Gateway to the Reading Slump Plaza
It's so hard to find books on the book-recommendation boards! What books do you all like? Bring them all on!
The Female Lead Starts Out as a Maid, Then Returns to Her Family
Food Novels, But Not Ones Where the System Just Hands Out Recipes
I don't want stories where the System gives the protagonist individual recipes and they can only cook those dishes. I want a proper chef and food story.
Female Lead Runs a Little Restaurant and Guesthouse! Great Cook!
Give Me Some Lighthearted, Funny, Laid-Back Farming Stories
Don't be shy, send them all my way!
Looking for Stories with a Female Lead Who Can Cook All Kinds of Delicious Food. Thanks!
The female lead can cook all kinds of delicious food, a bit like Chinese Hero. She can explain each dish as she cooks. It doesn't have to be about competing with others or picking fights through cooking; running a restaurant or something is fine.
Ancient-Era Stories About Disasters, War, and Fleeing Famine
I've suddenly gotten into ancient-era stories about people fleeing famine. With or without a golden finger is fine! Exile stories are fine too!

Looking for a Food Novel About Simply Cooking, Opening a Shop, and Everyday Family Life, With No Scheming
Ancient-Era Farming Stories About Buying Servants and Building a Cozy, Comfortable Life
Any genre is fine. I just want a story where the protagonist can build houses, buy land, and hire servants in ancient times, then live a happy, cozy life as a little landlord. I especially love when they hire servants who feel they've found a wonderful master! Fellow readers, please send me recommendations.
Transmigration Maid Stories: She Doesn't Try to Rise in Status, Just Saves Money to Buy Her Freedom
Transmigration maid novels. She doesn't try to climb the social ladder, just saves money to buy her freedom. A little pocket dimension would be nice.
Food Novels Focused Purely on Cooking, No Random Plotlines!
Don't recommend it unless it's actually a food novel. If it doesn't feature food, what the hell am I supposed to read it for? I'd be better off reading something else!
Popular Farming Novels, Come On In
Agricultural stories are very popular, but I honestly do not see what makes them appealing. Could someone enlighten me and recommend your personal favorites while you are at it?

The author writes very well; I enjoy reading about the ordinary lives of maids and their efforts to redeem themselves. Most stories about maids involve them being entangled with young masters, but I prefer stories about maids who redeem themselves. It's so rare to find another one, and it's even an ongoing series! Keep updating, author!
It's really good! There are so few novels like this where the female lead is a maid and there's no romantic pairing. I really enjoy reading stories where the female lead is a maid in the beginning and later gets redeemed. You can also see the stories of other people in the Marquis's mansion from the female lead's perspective. I really like this type of story.
Having grown accustomed to ancient Chinese novels featuring peerless concubines, aloof princesses, noble ladies from wealthy families, wives of prime ministers, and concubines of royal families—all possessing dazzling golden fingers—and most importantly, with the female protagonists always being stunningly beautiful, this story of ordinary people is refreshingly original and captivating.
I initially thought it would be one of those typical maid-servant stories! But I was completely wrong! It was unexpectedly brilliant! The intricate plots and schemes of the women living in the deep confines of a grand mansion are truly captivating! Unfortunately, there were no surprises after I was redeemed...
Having enjoyed the author's writing style in their previous book, I'm now reading this one. It feels like the author put a lot of effort into this one; it's more meticulous and engaging than the previous one, making for a light and enjoyable read. I really appreciate the author's attention to detail when it comes to food.
It's so good! It's really well-written, but sometimes I can't tell who said which sentence or whose inner thoughts are being expressed 😂 Anyway, it's great! Please update!
I was initially put off by the title; I saw it several times but didn't click on it. Finally, out of sheer desperation, I clicked on it and couldn't put it down! It's great! It's not a typical female-centric story; everyone is their own protagonist, and each character is very well-developed!
If Tomato (a popular Chinese web novelist) published more books like this, there might still be hope for him. Those who don't want mindless, feel-good stories can read this with confidence. The writing is excellent, telling the story in a gentle and engaging way, depicting the ordinary yet interesting daily life of a family and their household.
The plot is coherent, and the daily life and domestic intrigue are all well-received. However, the subjects are often unclear at the beginning, making it difficult to identify who is speaking. Also, the insistence on describing a dish at the beginning of each chapter is somewhat unnecessary. Otherwise, it's very good. I take back what I said; the forced addition of plot later on completely ruined the character development.
It's quite good, but it's often confusing who's speaking and sometimes you can't even tell who they're talking to. The story is alright, but there are too many characters and no introductions, making it quite chaotic and affecting the experience.
