A Late-Autumn Meal

Recommend Some Good Books with Basic Common Sense

No school or academy settings, school beauties, goddesses, empresses, harems, male-male pairings, saintly heroines, teams where one person drags along several deadweights, or characters who act less than human and look for someone to own them.

Has Anyone Written Their Own Novel? Let Me Check It Out!

Are there any? Are there? (￣∇￣) Let me take a peek!

I've Been Reading Novels for Over Ten Years, but Now I Can't Get Into Most of Them

I’ve been reading novels for over a decade, and these days I can barely get through most of them. Please recommend something fresh and unusual.

How Long Does It Take for a New Writer to Make It? I’ve Been Writing for 54 Days

54 days. I finished my first book on day 45: 320,000 words, writing for 8–12 hours a day. I’m now planning my second book, but nobody’s reading the first one anymore. Is it really that bad? Am I just someone with no talent? (sobbing)

I Don't Believe Tomato Has Any Masterpieces with Deep Ideas, Epic Scope, and a Grand, Sweeping Feel

I still haven't found a novel like this.

If It Doesn't Catch On, I'll Keep Promoting It. This Great Story Deserves Better!

Looking for stories like *Zhou Tiancheng and His Five Colorful Girlfriends*. Carefully crafted by the author and close to real life, it lays bare the ugliness and greed of human nature and reflects the chaos of society.

No Power Fantasies or Mindless Stories: Something Substantial and Not Cringey

After reading a few books that really make you think, I can't get into brainless stories anymore. It's frustrating. (No heroine, or just one heroine, but don't demean women, or I really can't stand it.)

Any Tomato-Novels with Beautiful Prose and Delicate Emotions?

Looking for books similar to *The Spring and Autumn of the Entertainment World*. Does anyone get what I mean? Any genre is fine, whether Eastern fantasy or alternate history! Multiple female leads, but the protagonist shouldn’t fall for every woman he meets. I want a story with some regrets. For fantasy, something like *Against the Gods*. For alternate history, something like...

Where Are the Comments? The Readers? My Royalties? I’ve Written Over Fifty Chapters!

Any Novels Like Keigo Higashino's?

Besides The Devotion of Suspect X, which I've already read, are there any others? Maybe something like Journey Under the Midnight Sun or Platinum Data? Mystery and detective fiction would be fine too. Any recommendations?

There Is a Shortage of Books, the Writing Must Be Good, the Male Protagonist Has No Concubine

I want to read books similar to "Genshin Impact: I Have a Library (Library of the Sages)". I want a male lead! ! Both original and second-generation creations are fine. Don't write poorly. I can't stand it if you make the protagonist invincible and then use the backstory.
