Stories Closely Based on Real Life or Personal Experiences
Are there any novels with really good prose that are almost exactly like real life?
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.
Any Realistic Romance Novels With a Calm, Everyday Feel?
I don't want wealthy-family stories or some kind of golden finger. I want something grounded in real life, unforgettable, and well written. The plot shouldn't move too fast, but it should be vivid and engaging, with an original storyline. Could some lovely fairy please grace me with a recommendation? I'm seriously out of things to read.

Pure Slice-of-Life Stories
Are slice-of-life stories even slice-of-life anymore? It’s all showing off and face-slapping, and it’s really annoying to read. Give me something light, fresh, and genuinely slice-of-life.
Any Low-Key Novels Focused on Everyday Life?
No System, and not too much face-slapping.

Modern Urban Stories: Startups, Everyday Life, Business, and the Workplace
Novels about urban life, starting a business, commerce, and workplace life, from the beginning of reform and opening up to the present day. Reborn or transmigration stories are both fine. I'd mainly like stories that start in China, though stories that start overseas are also
The Heroine Returns from the Big City to the Countryside and Starts a Peaceful Life
I want books similar to The Delicate Young Lady Returns to the Countryside, and the Obsessive Man's Methods Are Astonishing (The Abstinent Type's Entangling Kisses). The female lead returns from the big city to a quiet life in the countryside.
Any Warm, Slow-Burning Novels?
I'm really in the mood for this kind of story right now. Ideally, not too much scheming or melodrama. Please, I'm begging you!!!

It's definitely worth watching! This story is about a girl and her best friend who plan to travel in a campervan after graduating from university. However, an unexpected accident occurs on their way from her best friend's grandparents' house, and through a series of unforeseen events, they end up staying in the countryside and starting a retirement life together.
It's so good! So heartwarming and slice-of-life, without the clichés of other novels. It feels like something that actually happens around us. The writing is excellent. Retiring early to buy a house, grow vegetables, and raise chickens is something I'd like to do in the future too. It's so heartwarming to read 😘 I hope the author keeps updating; it's just so incredibly good!
This is such a pleasant surprise! Unlike other farming novels, the protagonists here don't become isolated after moving to the countryside, nor do they have any particularly difficult relatives (though there are one or two occasionally). It's more like a dual-female lead story than a single female lead and second female lead story.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
The story unfolds naturally, a simple life, yet anything but ordinary. I really liked the plot design; farming without worrying about sales, living life earnestly—it was particularly interesting.
This is a very enjoyable and heartwarming slice-of-life farming novel. There aren't any overly powerful plot devices, and I especially love the natural interactions between the female lead and her best friend – it's the kind of life I aspire to! 😘 It would be even better if it were a completed story.
Very heartwarming. A very healing novel. The female lead, male lead, and the female lead's friends are all wonderful and very distinctive. It's a very good novel; both the male and female leads have shining qualities, as do their friends and family. So far, there haven't been any misunderstandings. All the characters in this novel are perfect. I'm not very good at giving evaluations. Author, please forgive me, author, keep up the good work! The novel is very good.
This is the life so many people yearn for.
I've read this book over and over again; it's truly wonderful. The friendship between An'an and Yunyun is so touching, and the romance between An'an and Song Yan is beautiful too. Even though I skipped through some parts, it didn't stop me from loving the book! Ahhh, now I'm eagerly awaiting the author's next book to be finished!
This book is so good! Cheng Qingyun and Li An are best friends. They went on a trip together after graduation, inseparable. Having a best friend like that is just wonderful! ~(￣▽￣~)~(❁´◡`❁)*✲ﾟ*╭( ′• O •′ )╭☞ This is the one! ヽ(爱´∀'爱)ノ
