It feels like there are so few stories like this these days, but I really want to read one. It'd be even better if it also had palace intrigue or household scheming. Please recommend some!
Standalone Mystery Cases, Deduction, Lots of Cases, and No System
Not too much romance. I want a novel focused purely on solving cases.
Pure Historical Romance
I'm out of books to read.
Ancient-Era Detective Novels
Please recommend stories where the protagonist transmigrates to ancient times.
Female Protagonists Who Know Martial Arts, with Mystery and Suspense
Modern setting, with a cool-headed male and female lead who work together.
I’m Desperate for Something to Read and Can’t Get Into Anything. Recommend Your Number One Pick
Seeking High-Quality Historical Romance, No Transmigration, Rebirth, or System
I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).
Looking for Fast-Paced Historical Mystery and Detective Novels! No Romance!
Looking for books like Chang'an Twelve Hours (Complete in 2 Volumes). Any fast-paced historical mysteries with an ancient setting? No romance, and no mindless power fantasies!
Mysticism, but Nothing Too Childish
High-Quality Classical Fiction, No Transmigration or Rebirth
I'm sick of the same old transmigration and rebirth plots.
I Have Recently Become Obsessed with the National Superpower Tournament, No Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger!!!!
Looking for books like "You're a Sword Immortal, Strong and Ridiculously Handsome".
Historical Romance, Historical Romance, Historical Romance!!! You Have No Idea How Long It's Been Since I Read One 😂
I can’t find any good historical romances! Preferably not too long, no more than a little over a million words. It has to be good! Ideally, the heroine is reborn or transmigrates, gets revenge on the scumbags, and has a doting hero. One-on-one romance, both leads faithful to each other!!! No angst! A little angst at most! The hero must not have any other consorts.
Great Historical Detective Novels
Mystery-solving novels or historical transmigration novels. I’m tired of stories that are all about wish fulfillment and changing history without a second thought.
In a Reading Slump With High Standards, Preferably Ancient Romance, Thank You 😊
I have high standards and don't like melodramatic plots. I'm looking for an ancient-era romance. Please avoid the trope where the male lead chases his wife after losing her.
Ancient-Era Mystery and Crime-Solving
Looking for a Badass Female Lead and a Totally Satisfying Story
Something like "Miss Su, Your Husband Has Fallen" and "Reborn: This System's Style Is All Wrong". It doesn't have to be realistic.
Any Protagonists with More Than 800 Schemes Up Their Sleeves?
Something easy to understand and learn from. I want to learn how to become more perceptive.
Please Recommend Ancient Detective and Mystery Novels, Thanks
Underrated Historical Romance with Excellent Writing: No Transmigration, No Cheats, No Brain-Dead Characters

Looking for books similar to Binding Springtime.
If You Can't Write an Ensemble Cast, It Just Feels Like Everyone Is Fawning over the Protagonist. Keep That Away from Me
Looking for books like Ordinary Student at a Military Academy, But I Beat Up Superpowered Big Shots.
Book Recommendations, Please! Something Like The Xie Family's Short-Lived Ghost, with a Clever and Pure-hearted Female Lead!
I want to read books like "The Xie Family’s Short-Lived Ghost Has Lived to a Hundred". Please recommend something similar, with one plot twist leading into another, a clever and clear-headed heroine, beautiful writing, and a deep plot!!!
A Truly Feel-Good Female-Focused Novel, No Frustrating Moments at All, No Identity Mysteries
I just want a pure wish-fulfillment story with absolutely no frustrating moments. The female lead shouldn't have too many mysteries surrounding her identity, and there shouldn't be some big boss stronger than her. Ideally, she should be invincible. No romance, please. If there's a couple, it tends to become a case of the male lead being even stronger than the female lead. Male-oriented stories without romance are fine too.
Looking for Ancient-Era Detective Stories
Looking for a completed historical mystery where the female lead can communicate with spirits and helps the male lead solve cases. No abandoned or unfinished stories, please.

The writing is super good. This book is no longer the previous style where the female protagonist is stronger than the male protagonist and the male protagonist is always teasing the female protagonist (to be honest, I don't like it very much). However, the male and female protagonists in this book have their own strengths. The female protagonist is good at reasoning (talking to others and talking about ghosts), and the male protagonist can read (temperament) Frank, dare to serve the common people), and this book is not only about the heroine's reasoning process, but also the story behind each case. The story is both sad and touching. Maybe I don't express myself well. Anyway, please come on, it is very well written. I hope to update it more ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
This novel is not like a novel. It's like a script, and it's a script for a stage play, very detailed. That's what a Samsung reviewer said: "More words and less information." But I think this is an advantage. The description is very detailed. It feels like watching TV series like Young Bao Qing, Detective Di Renjie, etc. Many years ago. Although I have only read Chapter 4 now. The first three chapters can be summarized in only two sentences in other novels: "On the night of the wedding of the daughter of the Prime Minister Zuo, her soul was broken, and the fortune teller on the street was convicted and imprisoned." People comment that "too many words but little information" and it is reasonable to give it three stars. But I think the words and sentences used in this article are very sophisticated in advancing the plot. It is not suitable for those who like fast pace. Please clear it up. The rating of 9.2 Is really low for this article.
I would like to call it the best novel I have read this year. Every character has flesh and blood. Blessed are those who want to read stories about group portraits, blessed are those who want to read stories about big heroines, blessed are those who want to read stories about farming, blessed are those who want to read stories about solving problems, blessed are those who want to read stories about promotions, blessed are those who want to read stories about being demoted, blessed are those who want to read stories about Machiavellian tactics, and blessed are those who want to read stories about hegemony!!! It's so beautiful. From the emperor and his nobles to the common people, none of the people who appear are supporting roles. Everyone has their own story line. Every hole is filled in perfectly and everything is interlocked. I really hope someone can find this script and make it into a TV show. You will really regret if you don't watch it. It's so beautiful. I declare that this is the best, most handsome, and most authoritative emperor I have ever encountered in Tomato.
The author is really good at writing, and if this novel can be remade into a TV series, it will definitely be as good-looking as Zhifu. The writing is very good, the storyline is smooth, and there is no awkward plot. I give it a perfect score of 9.8 Out of 10. The reason for deducting two points is that it is not finished.
It's been a long time since I've seen a novel like this that's not overly complicated in its writing, has a logical story, and has a well-characterized protagonist and emotions that aren't greasy!!! 🥺 I'm so touched. 🥺 I finally see this kind of male protagonist who is not a bking, full of youthful feeling, not very flexible in his brain, but also very wise in his own field. He will not block the heroine's light and is not a background. His relationship is not greasy. It is a step-by-step process. There are also friends to accompany you, and friends also have their own skills. They are not the kind of tool people who just surround the hero and heroine to assist and eat CP. The case is also great. The ending of the case so far is not too idealistic or too disappointing, and it is very good at grasping this degree. I hope the author will continue to do so as always 😘
I just finished reading the first chapter. I recommend it. It has a detective story and is interesting. My sister is so cute. . . It can be made into a TV series, but the plot of solving the crime needs to be perfected
It's very interesting to watch, both the heroine and the hero are interesting, and their characters are very distinct and three-dimensional. I really like Xiao He, he is very smart and has his own principles. The cases inside are quite exciting and also sad. Let me add, I really like this kind of male protagonist, he is quite simple. And it won't be better than the heroine. My favorite is the heroine.
The female protagonist and male protagonist are all very vividly portrayed. I was so touched to finally see a male protagonist who is not a mute boss!!! The case is also very well written, and the supporting characters are also very flavorful. It's beautiful to watch!!!
This book is really touching! 🥹This is the best emperor I have ever read in a novel. The character is so plump and charming. The author's storyline is very well written and interlocking. Many branches are finally connected together and connected to the main plot. In many male novels, no matter how strong the heroine is, even if you are Nuwa, you will eventually fall in love with the hero and become a decoration, or at most a helper. What I like very much about the author of this novel is that everyone in the book has his own way to go. There is not only love and love in the world. No matter the male or female protagonist is the other's pendant, they all fulfill their responsibilities and obligations very well in their respective positions. Really good! The only thing that has room for success is that the villains' images are a bit flat, but it's not bad. The focus is on the plot outlined in various details. 9.5 Points!!!
It has a strong sense of logic and a big twist in the plot. It is not a traditional setting of strong men and strong women. The little characters grow up step by step. There is no overly exaggerated setting. It is really suitable for readers who like suspense and mystery novels. It is really good to read 👍
