I'm Out of Things to Read. Looking for High-Quality Stories with Great Writing and a Smooth, Unawkward Plot

I'm more interested in historical settings. Farming, fantasy, palace intrigue, romance, or male-male pairings are all fine, as long as the writing and plot are good. Ideally, there shouldn't be any misunderstandings between the leads. These days I drop so many novels before I even get halfway through. The ratings are ridiculously inflated, and I don't even want to get started on the leads' characterizations.

Looking for a Smart Female Lead Who Transmigrates into a Book in the Grave Robbers' Chronicles Universe, but Is Just an Ordinary Person

Looking for books similar to Tomb Raiding: Where the Hell Did You Bring Me? I really want something that doesn't make everyone stupid or have them grovel at the protagonist's feet. I've looked for ages and only found three that fit. I don't want the protagonist to be ridiculously overpowered, either. They're clearly supposed to be an ordinary person.

Please Recommend Realistic Stories, No Brain-Dead Plots or Wish Fulfillment

Does anyone know any books like "Inside and Outside the Village" or "Handsome Lad" that are realistic, not exaggerated, brainless, formulaic, or full of a System? I just want to read about an ordinary person growing little by little, facing hardships but no earth-shattering upheavals.

Looking for Recommendations: No System or Harem

I'm seriously out of books to read. Any recommendations are welcome, whether fantasy, historical, or romance. The protagonist should be intelligent. No Systems or womanizers.
