Do Period Novels Really Have to Send the Characters to the Countryside? Looking for Ones That Don’t

Every single historical-era novel is about educated youth being sent to the countryside, or petty rural dramas. Can these authors write anything other than educated youth? Are there any historical-era novels that aren't about going to the countryside or rural life? Even something about spies in the 1940s would be fine!!!

Looking for Period Stories Without Poverty-relief Plots, Featuring Selfish, Stingy, Penny-pinching Protagonists

I really hate it when the female lead keeps helping people out of poverty. It feels like her golden finger exists just to serve the male lead's family. 🤗🤗 I hope the female lead is a lone wolf.

Historical-Era Stories with a Female Lead Who Stands on Her Own: No More Male Leads Who Keep Going to the Countryside to Help the Poor

I can accept romance developing later, but can there be a personal space and supplies, with the female lead thriving on her own? Also, please no stories where she is constantly sent to the countryside 🤣 to help impoverished male leads, only to end up becoming part of the male lead's family. The romance should not progress so quickly either. Would an educated youth from that era really be interested in a villager?

Looking for an Unconventional Historical-Era Story

I'm tired of stories that are either about the black market or people watching the drama unfold.

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.

Bygone-Era Novels with Clear-Eyed, Sensible Heroines Who Mind Their Own Business, Plus Great Writing

Are there any stories like this? I really can't stand saintly, clueless female leads!

Self-Serving + Selfish + Period Drama (+ Beloved by All...)

I want to read books similar to The Favorite of a Villainous Family in the 1960s. I want the family to genuinely be selfish, with fairly good circumstances, in a period story. Other appealing elements would be even better. Something like The Favorite of a Villainous Family in the 1960s. I really love it, but...

Period Stories With No Children, Ideally With the Female Lead Ending Up Happily Single

Looking for books like It Took Me Years as a Stepmom to Realize I Had Transmigrated into a Book. No having children! I don't want kids!

Looking for a Historical-Era Story Where the Female Lead Won't Raise Someone Else's Child or Be a Doormat

No stepmothers, or anything like that. I can't handle raising kids right from the start.

No Male Lead! I Only Want a Period Novel With No Male Lead! Not About an Old Lady Raising Kids

Period Novel, Has a Pocket Dimension, No Romance

Please Recommend Famine Novels Set in the 1950s and 1960s, Especially Highly Rated Gems

The female lead transmigrates to an era of famine and uses her pocket dimension to help the people at the bottom of society.

Female-Oriented, No Wish Fulfillment, No Romance

I'm looking for books like The Divination Trade. I've been searching forever, haha. Everything I find is people asking for wish-fulfillment stories. Are there any that aren't wish fulfillment, weird, aimless, or dumbed down? I'd like an ensemble cast (which doesn't mean everyone dotes on the protagonist!!!)
