See allI'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.

Books About Paladins, Clerics, Healers, and the Like, Please!

I’m in a Reading Drought, Looking for Yandere Loli System Novels. No Female-Dominant Settings

Stories Where the Heroine or a Supporting Female Character Is Transported Into a TV Drama, Novel, or Wuxia Story
Stories where the characters transmigrate into wuxia novels by Jin Yong, Gu Long, and others.
Invincible Protagonists, No Romance, Nonstop Thrills, and Smart Leads Who Aren’t Goody-Two-Shoes
I'm looking for books like Fistfighting the Protagonist's Growth Squad and Stomping on the Villain's Grave Grass.
Divine Arts Battle Supernatural Powers
Imagine a book where the protagonist uses the peerless martial arts from Jin Yong's novels to make a name for himself in a world undergoing spiritual qi revival, taking on all kinds of superpowers. The clash between the two eras would surely be spectacular.
Please Recommend Novels Where the Protagonist Has Powers Like Those of the Ghost Realm
Ideally, something about spiritual qi revival or people awakening supernatural abilities.
