Any More Realistic Stories Set in a Particular Era? Looking for Recs

A lot of period dramas these days have living conditions better than ours now. It feels a bit fake.

Is There No Historical-Era Story About Someone Who Transmigrates Quietly?

I'm looking for a book where the female lead keeps a low profile after transmigrating. Not one of those who claims to be keeping up an act, then goes hunting in the mountains every day or picks fights with everyone. Please recommend something.

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...

Do Period Novels Really Have to Send the Characters to the Countryside? Looking for Ones That Don’t

Every single historical-era novel is about educated youth being sent to the countryside, or petty rural dramas. Can these authors write anything other than educated youth? Are there any historical-era novels that aren't about going to the countryside or rural life? Even something about spies in the 1940s would be fine!!!

Period Novels Where the Female Lead Doesn’t Bail Out Her Family, Have Lots of Children, Go to the Black Market, or Take Over Someone Else’s Mess

The male and female leads should come from well-matched families. The heroine shouldn't get married as soon as she transmigrates. She should have a harmonious family, but not be the family's darling. Her grandparents, uncles, and aunts shouldn't be awful people. The heroine can go to the countryside, but don't force her to. Some stories make the heroine go to the countryside even when there's no need for her to.

Are There Really No High-Quality Women’s Fiction Books Anymore?

Looking for books similar to *Quick Transmigration: The Charming Beauty of a Villainous Cannon Fodder*. I’m so frustrated. Some quick-transmigration authors really don’t understand what quick transmigration means, and drag a single arc out for a hundred chapters. I hope someone can recommend some fast-paced, high-quality stories with no romance. No number one...

Period-Era Stories About a Capable Female Lead Who Knows How to Keep a Low Profile

Looking for books like *Smiling at the Locust Blossoms, I Ask About the Past*. A golden finger is fine, but it shouldn't drive the plot, and I especially don't want the protagonist sneaking off to the black market every day to sell things from it.

Looking for Period Stories Without Poverty-relief Plots, Featuring Selfish, Stingy, Penny-pinching Protagonists

I really hate it when the female lead keeps helping people out of poverty. It feels like her golden finger exists just to serve the male lead's family. 🤗🤗 I hope the female lead is a lone wolf.
