Long, Extra Long, Incredibly Long: The Longest Novel on Tomato Novel
Any genre is fine. I'm looking for the longest novel on Tomato. Please recommend something, I'm in a reading slump:
Looking for an Ancient-Style Story with a Female Lead Who Hunts Demons and Ghosts, Not a Modern Setting
Rated 9.9, Still Addictive After Five Rereads!
Looking for books similar to Wanwan Isn't Wanwan: You're Reborn, So Who's Still Spoiling You? I want something incredibly good, with a fresh and original plot.
Stories with Great Values That You Can’t Bear to Reread
Right and wrong are for oneself to judge; let others decide one’s reputation, and don’t dwell on gains or losses. Don’t judge without knowing the whole story. If you’re not involved, don’t take sides. Nothing in this world is inherently unacceptable to heaven and earth, whether a species or a person. We know what happens in the book, but we’re only people outside it, you and I.
Please Recommend Ghost-Hunting Stories With No System! Just a Seriously Powerful Protagonist! Funny or Terrifying, Either Works
The protagonist can catch ghosts, and there's no System. Please!

A Satisfying Cultivation Story with a Strong Female Lead!

A Gentle, Refined Young Lady, a Slow-Burning Story, Pure Historical Romance, No Rebirth or Transmigration

Have you come across any masterpieces rated above 9.5? Please share. Male or female-oriented, I don’t mind, as long as it’s good.
A Goddess Descends to the Mortal World at Full Power
The protagonist must be max-level. No transmigration, System, or being reborn. Historical or modern settings are both fine. The female lead must not lose her magic; she has to keep all of her powers.
The Female Lead Is a God Who Lives Through to the Modern Era, Hidden Away in the Mountains
Fortune-Telling and Metaphysics, a Powerful Female Lead, Preferably with Romance
Something related to metaphysics, with a very capable female lead. Not too long or too short, hehe. It has to be complete. No transmigration into a book or ancient-to-modern transmigration.
Stories With Solid Values, Good Prose, and a Grand Scope
Something like "Cherish the Flowers" or "The Best Lyricist".
Metaphysics! I Hope the Female Lead Is Incredibly Powerful (ง •̀_•́)ง
Preferably, don’t hide the secret identity 🐴

Overall, it's pretty good and definitely keeps you hooked. It's the first time I've seen a male lead like this, which is quite novel. I also like this kind of loyal and righteous person who can distinguish between what's important in relationships and doesn't hesitate when making a decision. The female lead... Well, it's hard to say whether she's powerful or not.
I absolutely adore the calm, strong, and occasionally adorably naive female lead! She only charged two taels of silver for catching ghosts when she first appeared, and even when she was "bribed," she was shocked by the man's wealth but didn't dare ask for more—so upright, haha! The male leads are also very well-developed.
It's alright. It started off quite similar to *Yan Sanhe*, but personally, I found *Yan Sanhe* more immersive and captivating later on, keeping you wanting to keep watching. This work, however, features a female lead whose fighting prowess directly confronts ghosts, allowing others to see them as well, lacking much mystery. To each their own, I found myself getting bored halfway through; the audiobook made me sleepy 😂
Sisters, please rate this book! If it gets a high rating, more people will read it, and the author won't stop updating! I'm so afraid of it stopping. It's been so long since I've read a book that I really enjoy. Author, please keep updating!
Well written, I love the leisurely, free feeling. My understanding is that Nan Rong initially had a heart, but no real affection; he had pity and empathy, something like that. Later, he had both heart and affection, but more of a romantic love. It felt rushed towards the end, like completing a task, lacking the leisurely mood and the subtlety of the beginning. This is just my interpretation of the story. I really like the characters' personalities. A good read and worth reading!
It's really beautiful. I read about the Xie family's short lifespan and their fate lacking a ghost. This one can be ranked third. I really love The plot is neither padded nor dragged out. The male and female characters are also well-designed.
It's really good, and I highly recommend it to everyone! The author's writing is full of detail, and the character portrayals are also good, but I suggest you don't read the comments, as there are some particularly offensive comments typical of female-oriented novels.
It's really, really good!!! The plot is fast-paced and unfolds layer by layer, and the characters are well-developed. It's definitely worth reading! 💕 Author, please keep updating! [Requesting more updates!] I'm getting more and more excited for the rest of the story! 😳 Please don't stop updating! Waaaaaaah!
It's very good, with a cyclical plot. At the beginning, I thought the female lead was great; she solved the problem quickly. Initially, I thought it was just a typical ghost-hunting story, but then I realized it wasn't. Seeing her repeatedly fail to catch the person behind it all made me think she wasn't so amazing. By the end, I was at a loss for words. You should check it out!
Excellent! Lately, I haven't been able to get into many novels because they're all similar. Some I initially found enjoyable, but after a couple hundred chapters, they lost their appeal. This one, however, is truly excellent. I'm glad I didn't miss it because of its low rating.
