I'm Extremely Picky. I've Read Over 400 Books and Only Added Two to My Library. Please Recommend Some
Stories Set in the 1950S, 60S, or 70S. Good Writing, Please. No Transmigration-and-Raising-Kids Plots
Period-Era Stories Without Pocket Dimensions or a System
Looking for Down-to-Earth Stories Set in a Past Era, Nothing Too Over-the-Top
I'm in a reading slump.
Novels Close to Reality
I almost never read transmigration into a book, transmigration, or domineering CEO stories. I prefer novels that stay close to real life and let me put myself into them.
Looking for Books That Feel Especially Realistic
Close to real life.
New Political Drama Novels
Looking for books similar to *Pastoral Feelings*. A fantastic, promising read that I highly recommend!
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...

For the most demanding readers suffering from a book drought. Beginners, stay away.
Classic Historical-Era Fiction
Looking for books with good writing and sound values!
Male-Oriented: Ancient Alternate History, Political Maneuvering, Supporting Princes and Choosing Sides, with Solid Historical Knowledge
Looking for books similar to My Emperor Father Can Read Minds. It has to be an alternate universe!!! Definitely an alternate universe!!! Those of us who care about history can’t stand authors deliberately vilifying a certain dynasty, era, or official out of personal bias. Besides, I’m allergic to harem stories 😅. Preferably no female lead, and the protagonist can go home. That’s all.
Looking for Straightforward Historical-Era Stories, No Reckless Shenanigans
Something that fits the historical setting fairly well, without going too over the top. 🌸
Books Just for Older Readers
Looking for books similar to *Nine-Tenths Foolish*.
Any Novels Suitable for Middle-Aged and Older Readers? Recommend a Few
For example, stories about real life, a particular historical era, history, or rural life. Nothing mindless
Rated 9.9: High-Quality Historical Fiction with Fresh, Original Plots
Looking for books similar to "Transmigrate to the Sixties with a Space! Accidentally Kidnap a Handsome Man." Quality 9.9-rated period pieces, something fresh and not clichéd.

Excellent Completed Stories Set in a Bygone Era
Strong female and male leads, taking down scumbags, past and present lives
A Die-Hard Fan of Period Dramas, Begging for Your Hidden Gems
Books That Feel Close to Real Life
Any recommendations for good books that feel especially close to real life?
Reborn in the 1980S: No Superpowers or System, True to the Times
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.

Looking for books similar to "Falling into Love? No, Falling into a Grave!"

The story of Siheyuan is down-to-earth, the author's writing is smooth, and the characters are described delicately. It resonates with you after reading it, and it is supported by five-star reviews! The flowers are sprinkled at the end, we can't get enough of the excitement!
I didn't expect such a good novel to exist. I stayed up late to read it. The author's writing style is delicate. The plot and story are vividly described. The characterization is vivid and full. It attracted me immediately. Read it in one sitting. Highly recommended to family members. I haven't read such a good novel in a long time. The story is very exciting!
Everyone in the story is the protagonist of life. Everyone has their own choices, and there are regrets and difficulties, but this is the real life. The playmates we thought we played well with when we were young may not be so familiar with us when we grow up. Sometimes our lives may be very bad, and sometimes we may get angry at the trivial things in life, but there is also such a beautiful side. Children grow up healthily, parents are healthy, and couples love each other. This is also the beauty in life. Come on, live a good life now and cherish the good things in life. There will be a lot of pressure in life. The pressure at work, the pressure of childcare, the pressure of communicating with parents, and every day you have to think about how to take good care of your children, how to make money, and how to get along well with your parents and in-laws? Husband and wife also need to work together to support the family. It feels very difficult. Sometimes I feel extremely overwhelmed when faced with the trivial things in life. But is it the meaning of life to see children growing up healthily, parents being healthy, husbands and wives working together, and loving each other?
What the author writes is a microcosm of an era, with a simple and sincere writing style and a sense of the times. The detailed description of the characters made the scenes of their lives sketched before my eyes. Nice! The northern town described by the author is very unique. It is recommended. It must be recommended.
It's tied, very nice. The rating of 8.1 Is too low! The author's description of the characters is very good, especially the description of the psychology and concepts of the characters in different eras is very consistent with the characteristics of the times. Darong never suffered a loss outside the home, but as the eldest daughter at home, her mother taught her to be infinitely tolerant and understanding of her family, so she was sincere and unconcerned about her family before and after marriage. Zhong Yunxing was able to endure hardships and take care of his family, and he also had the characteristic of being infinitely tolerant of his family, especially his mother at that time. Darong had to endure some hardships when marrying him, but fortunately he was sincere to Darong. Days are lived by two people. As Darong struggled in life, she gradually understood how to get along with relatives. It's great that there are no common plots such as college entrance examination, military spirit, and getting rich. I like this chronicle very much. Good luck to the author! [Love][love][love]
In an era when pure literature is in decline, in an era when publishing trends are in decline, it takes courage and sentiment to dare to write this kind of article. The story is good and the writing is good, cheers for the author!
The pictures described by the author are vivid and lively, the life scenes are very natural, the characters' hearts and personalities are very delicately portrayed, and they contain rich life philosophy and life feelings. The writing is very good👍, come on👏
It is really a warm and fresh story about a family. It is very comfortable and warm to read. It is easy to get into the story. The emotional descriptions of the characters are delicate and vivid, and they are eloquently told. I like this story very much. Come on, the author is great!
How should I put it, the style is completely different from the popular articles on Tomato now, giving people a sense of quiet time and eloquent talk. When reading this kind of article, you need to calm down and appreciate it slowly. The author's writing style is very good. I saw the latest chapter in no time, but the update is too slow. I am urging you to update. . .
The story is authentic, and the writing is as eloquent as if I was seeing the stories around me. As a post-70s person, reading it felt like I was following memories to my current life, and it was like the love and family relationships happening around me were so real.
