Can Anyone Recommend Some Good Period-Era Novels? I'm Out of Books to Read!

I've read so many period novels! I can't find anything good these days. Fellow readers, please recommend some great period novels! Pretty please!

Looking for Your Favorite Historical-Era Novels

The female lead is reborn, or has a pocket dimension. Transmigration works too. Rural relocation or business-building are both fine.

I Want Pure Historical Romance!

I'm tired of transmigration and rebirth stories. I just want pure historical romance.

In a Serious Reading Slump!!!! Nothing to Read!!!

I need something unconventional! Something that makes you want to keep reading!

Looking for High-Quality Novels with Great Writing That Keep You Hooked

Looking for high-quality novels with great writing that get more and more addictive as you read.

Novels Set in a Bygone Era! Novels Set in a Bygone Era! Novels Set in a Bygone Era!

I want a story set in a bygone era, but not in some made-up world. Something realistic would be great, and even better if the female lead has a cute little kid. Thanks!

Finished Books Recommended by a Veteran Reader

Maybe I've read too many books, because I can't get into a lot of them and drop them after about three chapters. If I can finish one and enjoy it, it's definitely a gem worth sharing! I'll update this list from time to time. I've read every book on it myself, though I can't guarantee everyone will like them. 😍

I'm in a Reading Slump. I Keep Dropping Books Halfway Through. Please Recommend Anything, Any Genre

Funny stories, preferably ones that are finished!

Any Good Historical Chinese Novels?

As the title says.

Niche but Really Good Novels

Does anyone have a novel that hardly anyone else has read, but that means the world to you and holds an irreplaceable place in your heart?

Good Historical Romance Novels

Absolutely incredible...

Spy Thriller Reading Slump!! I’m Out of Books!!!

Please recommend some espionage novels! Espionage plus a golden finger!! The longer, the better!!!

Historical Romance Like Cherishing the Flowers, Modern-Era Stories Like Xia Xiaolan! I'm Out of Books!

Pure Historical Romance

I'm out of books to read.

Looking for Slightly Angsty Historical Romance!!!!

I want something similar to The Empress Leaped to Her Death, and the Mad Tyrant Cried Until His Eyes Turned Red. Is there anything like this, where the male lead doesn't love the female lead at first and later has to desperately win her back? It must have a happy ending!

Please Recommend a Period Novel with No Golden Finger or Pocket Space, and Good Writing

I'd prefer a heroine who transmigrates. With reborn heroines, I always feel like people can't change their nature, so I can't get into them.

Looking for Completed Novels. They Have to Be Top Quality!!!!

Fantasy, urban, or horror are all fine. No brainless plots, harems, or womanizers. Please recommend something!!!

I Want Ancient-Era Fantasy Romance Novels!!!

Pure Historical Romance, Sweet and Pampering

The female lead is the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, whose mother died young. She has a stepmother, a younger sister, and a younger brother. The female lead enters the palace through the selection process, and her younger sister is killed in the palace by the Empress Dowager and Noble Consort Ji.

Short Historical Romance

Preferably a story about a princess regent and a prince regent, or a prince and princess consort who marry first and fall in love later.
