Genuinely Skillful Historical-Era Novels, No Villains or Black Markets

Does Tomato Really Have No Heroines with Happy Families, Wealth, Happiness, and Sunshine?

As the title says, I'm looking for romance. The female lead should have a loving, happy, wealthy family, be doted on, sunny, cheerful, kind, generous, innocent, and adorable. The male lead can be anything. Everyone should be sexually inexperienced. School, showbiz, wealthy-family drama, anything goes.

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!!!

A Breath of Fresh Air in the Period-novel Genre, with Original Twists. I'm Done with Those Overused Plots

The story should fit the period setting. No fake aristocrats, no making women weak, no following the army to the countryside, no divorce, no over-the-top business ventures, and no cold-faced, rugged men who can't have children. Even the titles are embarrassing enough to make me cringe.

Period Novel! The Heroine Has a Job, Won't Be a Housewife or Do Chores, and Doesn't Want to Be a Stepmother

No female leads who work themselves to the bone doing everything! Absolutely no chasing after the male lead, and no second or third babies! Either no children or just one!!! 🥰

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.

Looking for Novels About Building Industry and Businesses in Hong Kong in the 1970s and ’80s

Looking for books like "A Hong Kong Tycoon's Son, Taking Down Nanyang's Richest Man from the Start". Are there any novels about building industries and moving up the supply chain in Hong Kong between the 1960s and 1990s, especially in electronics? Financial events could be woven in along the way.

Finding a Job Through Your Own Merit in a Period-Era Novel

Are there any stories where the female lead transmigrates into a rural setting in an era novel, then uses her abilities to get a job at the commune or in a government department? I'm out of things to read.

Looking for Really Good Period-Era Novels

Nothing with a confusing plot, and no period pieces that feel too fake, the kind where you can tell right away the author is making things up. I want a period piece that feels fairly realistic but is still lighthearted.

Stories Set in the 1960s and 70s, With a Job and No Rural Relocation

Looking for books similar to Everyday Life in a Sixties Courtyard Compound. Please recommend stories set in the 1960s or 1970s, where the characters don't get sent to the countryside and have jobs. No educated youth stories, please. I really mean no going to the countryside. Don't make random, irrelevant recommendations.
