Looking For Addictive Farming Novels, Please!
Preferably without a pocket dimension.
Farming Stories, but No Constant Wild Boars and Rabbits, No Inviting People to Dinner, and No Red-Braised Pork
Looking for books similar to In a Year of Famine, the Whole Village Chews Tree Bark, but I Have a System and a Warehouse Full of Meat.
Ordinary People Fleeing Famine, No Princes or Nobles, No Overpowered Golden Finger
Looking for books similar to Fleeing Famine: My Whole Family Is Reborn. Instantly emptying out a marquis's estate, an entire city, or the imperial treasury makes the characters seem so stupid. People in ancient times weren't fools, so I want something more sensible: ordinary people trying to survive and escape famine during a disaster year.
Portable Space + Historical Romance + Fleeing Famine: I Want Them to Use the Supplies They Stockpile, Not Let Them Go to Waste
I don't want stories where they stockpile a ton of supplies for all sorts of reasons, only to end up eating bran and wild greens...
Ancient-Era Drought and Famine: The Protagonist Transmigrates with a System and Has Endless Food
Ancient-Era Stories About Disasters, War, and Fleeing Famine
I've suddenly gotten into ancient-era stories about people fleeing famine. With or without a golden finger is fine! Exile stories are fine too!
I'm into Farming Novels Lately. Preferably with a Pocket Dimension, Completed, and Not Angsty
Looking for stories about farming, raising children, and building wealth, with few scheming women and a strong, fiercely protective female lead. Ideally set in ancient times.
Famine Escape Stories with No Horrible Relatives and a Close-Knit Family
I want something logical, without an overly far-fetched plot.
Farming Stories with a Pocket Dimension: Put It to Use, Don't Let It Just Sit There!!
Can we get some farming stories where the heroine actually makes good use of her storage space? If the space supermarket has supplies, she should just use them. Don't make the golden finger useless by having her too timid to take even a bit of meat out of the space!! And no self-sacrificing heroines either. I want a satisfying story with a storage space.
The Female Lead Transmigrates and Immediately Tells the Male Lead About Her Space, Then Brings Him Inside
I'd like stories where the female lead comes clean as soon as she transmigrates, or where she comes clean and then takes the male lead into her pocket dimension. Farming stories are fine too, including ones set in the 1970s or 1980s.
Stories Where the Female Supporting Character Steals the Original Heroine’s Love Interest
Looking for a story where the original female lead mistreats the male lead and dumps him, only to realize she chose the wrong person and end up miserable. After she's reborn, she wants to make it up to him, but a transmigrated or reborn supporting female character gets there first and wins him over. Everyone, I really want to read something like this! 😭😭😭
Fishing by the Sea, from a Female Perspective
Are there any stories like Fish Girl in the 1970s? That book got me into this genre, but I haven't found anything similar since. Preferably a completed story.
Hunting in a Bygone Era, Hunting Dogs, and Falcon Training
Looking for books similar to "Back to 1983: Hunting in the Anling Mountains". One female lead, a hunting dog team, and falcon training.
Male Protagonist, Family Fleeing Famine, Farming, No Golden Finger or System
Historical F/F Survival and Farming Stories, With a Space or System
The Female Lead Is Reborn and Finds a Jade Pendant Containing a Pocket Dimension, Inheritance, and Cultivation
The female lead finds a jade pendant containing a pocket dimension and a legacy in a cave. She enters the dimension and inherits the complete legacy.
Looking for Male-Male Historical Novels About Exile and Farming
I want a male/male story where the two leads transmigrate to ancient times, get exiled, and take up farming. A military setting would work too, but no straight romance. Thanks, handsome guys and beautiful ladies. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, so please recommend a good book and save this girl's life. Thanks for all the recommendations 😘😘😘
I’m Starting to Think Famine-Escape Novels Are Really Good
Looking for Wasteland Survival Stories About Foraging and Farming, the Real Farming Kind
Looking for wasteland novels about scavenging and farming. I mean real farming stories, not books that pretend to be about farming but are really about something else.
Rural Farming Stories with Superpowers
Something with a plot that also feels close to real life.
Transmigrate to Ancient Times and Fleeing Famine
I'm looking for books similar to Natural Disaster Apocalypse: A Lone Farm Girl Flees the Famine Alone. The female lead isn't a bleeding heart, there's no male lead, and it's so good 😄😄❤️❤️
Transmigrate to a Primitive Tribe: Totems, Infrastructure Building, Farming. No Romance-Obsessed Leads
Preferably no romance. A little romance is fine if it doesn't get much page time. I don't want romance to take up a large part of the story. The protagonist can be male or female; I just want the focus to be on their growth and progress.
Looking for a Completed Historical Romance!
Even better if it's about palace or family intrigue!

The book is very good, but since the female protagonist knew about the drought and famine, she should have left with her relatives and friends one or two months before the mass exodus, as it would have been much safer then. Mass exodus is a terrifying time.
The writing is good, and it's quite enjoyable. So far, the female lead seems quite inspiring; she's cautious, kind to her family, and very loving—not the greedy type who would skim off anyone's money. Looking forward to the next installment.
I especially love how this family works together as they stock up on supplies. Reading this post is calming and relaxing, with no flaws.
It's pretty good. This is the first book I read where they make a living by selling food. Honestly, I don't like reading about food, but this family is very savvy and enjoyable.
Excellent, super excellent, couldn't be better! (>^ω^<)
It's a great read, the only thing I didn't like was that the author actually gave Shen Jiaojiao a naive and innocent prince to be her devoted follower. How could someone from a noble family, the heir to a royal household, really be naive and innocent?
The female lead and her family seem alright, but I feel I'd prefer her to either be a single, beautiful woman or find a younger, more masculine man. I hope it's not the man she saved, since he owed her a favor. Later, when they met again, he was perfectly capable of handling all the mess he was in (the waves of assassinations), but he dragged her into it instead, which feels like repaying kindness with enmity.
So what if I have a spatial ability and know about the disaster months in advance? I love hoarding supplies and waiting to take those awful villagers with me. I love listening to their foul talk and calls them worthless bastards 😳 Suspect there's a plague?
It's great! Not overly sentimental or idiotic. It doesn't have that "you instantly feel maternal love and are overwhelmed by a hug after time-traveling" thing. Highly recommended!
He's decisive and ruthless, not a saint; he's far better than those empty, superficial "nine out of ten" types.
