Gu Qingyu's Cheat-Filled Life in a Period Novel

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!!!

Any Understated, Sensible Period Novels? Not the Kind Where They Eat Lavish Meals Every Day

Looking for books like Making Others Happy? I'd Rather Make Myself Happy. Historical-era story with a female lead. It doesn't matter whether she transmigrates or has a golden finger, but it shouldn't be brainless or too showy. I hate those stories where she has a pocket dimension people can enter but insists on cooking outside, and is always...

The female lead builds her life in the city. She’s not an educated youth and doesn’t go to the countryside!

This Is an Advanced Reading Slump Zone. Beginners, Stay Away

I've read 1,596 books, for a total of 2,838 hours and 38 minutes, and still have 682 books on my shelf. I'm really out of things to read. I won't ramble on, just recommend anything, any genre.

Give Me Some High-IQ Stories. Reading Idiot-Proof Fiction Is Making Me Stupid

Period Novels Where the Female Lead Doesn’t Bail Out Her Family, Have Lots of Children, Go to the Black Market, or Take Over Someone Else’s Mess

The male and female leads should come from well-matched families. The heroine shouldn't get married as soon as she transmigrates. She should have a harmonious family, but not be the family's darling. Her grandparents, uncles, and aunts shouldn't be awful people. The heroine can go to the countryside, but don't force her to. Some stories make the heroine go to the countryside even when there's no need for her to.

Any Period Novels with a Female Protagonist in Politics? No Romance or Male Lead!

Girls, please don't recommend anything with a male lead. I really don't want to read that 🙅🏻‍♀️ I've tried some of the recommendations before and found them so frustrating. Either the female lead is just the male lead's golden finger, or it feels like she only succeeds thanks to him. Otherwise, he's constantly chasing after her and won't take no for an answer. I really can't get into that. Please recommend something without a male lead.

Is There No Historical-Era Story About Someone Who Transmigrates Quietly?

I'm looking for a book where the female lead keeps a low profile after transmigrating. Not one of those who claims to be keeping up an act, then goes hunting in the mountains every day or picks fights with everyone. Please recommend something.

Stories Set in the 1960s and 70s, With a Job and No Rural Relocation

Looking for books similar to Everyday Life in a Sixties Courtyard Compound. Please recommend stories set in the 1960s or 1970s, where the characters don't get sent to the countryside and have jobs. No educated youth stories, please. I really mean no going to the countryside. Don't make random, irrelevant recommendations.

Finding a Job Through Your Own Merit in a Period-Era Novel

Are there any stories where the female lead transmigrates into a rural setting in an era novel, then uses her abilities to get a job at the commune or in a government department? I'm out of things to read.

Period-Era Fiction! Really Good Ones! No Pocket Spaces, They’re Too Unrealistic!

I don't know why, but lately I've been really into stories set in a bygone era, especially ones about transmigration. Transmigrating into a book is fine too. I read one about a soft-hearted freeloader and a green-tea schemer and really loved it. It felt so real, but it's still being updated. Ladies, any more recommendations? No stories where they get a pocket dimension and supplies like a supermarket, though.
