Books Rated 9.7, 9.8, or Higher
Don't recommend anything rated below 9.7. I won't read it, so you'll just be wasting your time. If I wanted something rated below 9.7, I could find it myself. I want highly rated works with a compelling, fast-paced plot and protagonists with sound values. Thanks.
Transmigrate to the Early Years of the People's Republic of China and Return from Abroad to Help Make China a Technological Power
For Middle-Aged Readers: Smart Characters, No Goody-Two-Shoes, Decisive and Ruthless, Highly Rated
Urban, System, reborn, fantasy, or gaming novels are all fine, as long as they’re good, the characters are smart, and there’s no saintly protagonist. Bring out any books on your shelf that fit the bill!

How Can I Search All of Tomato and Not Find a Single Period-Era Novel from a Man's Perspective Where He Doesn't Go to the Countryside???
No going to the countryside, no going to the countryside, no going to the countryside. I'm saying it three times because it's important!!! Working in the city is great. Otherwise, so many people wouldn't refuse to go to the countryside and do hard labor. Preferably no CP. The male lead can have male and female friends, but not in the main story...

Five stars! Keep it up!
Good, good, good, keep it up! There are just too few beautiful female celebrities, and they seem a bit timid. Don't send girls along!
Don't stop, don't leave it unfinished, it can be a book with over a thousand chapters.
A well-written novel with a clear logical storyline.
This is such a satisfying read! So satisfying, so incredibly satisfying! The pacing is fast. I listened to it on audiobook at 1.7X speed, and it was absolutely addictive. One day wasn't enough. The updates are too slow. They need at least 30 chapters a day.
The author wrote well; I hope it doesn't have a bad ending.
The writing style is quite light and easy to understand, which suits my taste.
Go and collect a few from China. The current generation of Gen Z doesn't watch them, but there are still quite a few good-looking actresses from the 70s generation.
This is a typical case of someone who's seen too much and thinks they could write it too.
This is a fantastic Hong Kong time-travel novel with a satisfying plot. The elements of a powerful figure behind the scenes in Hong Kong's business and entertainment industries are superb. The writing is excellent, with clear logic and a well-developed story. It needs a touch of humor... Keep up the good work, author!
