Looking for Good Wasteland Novels, Recent Ones Have All Been Boring
The wasteland novels people recommend are all boring. The golden fingers are way too powerful, or else the stories are about being reborn or transmigrating. Not for me. I want something about people scavenging out in the wasteland, not stories where they can't even make the main plot clear.

I liked the overall plot, but some details weren't handled carefully enough. For example, I remember Zhang Chen not knowing the female lead had a spatial ability, and then she just took out a piece of fish in front of him. There were also some awkward phrasing moments. But overall, the plot was very good.
Generally speaking, I can't stand seeing the female lead slap herself in retaliation when someone bullies her.
Well written. The most heartbreaking characters are Liu Yun and her group, the founders of the Bright Base. These people, who barely survived to the end, were betrayed by their own people. How wronged they were! Even after becoming zombies, they didn't change their original intentions, continuing to protect humanity for over a hundred years.
This is my second reading. I'd give it a score of 9 or higher. It's the most exciting post-apocalyptic novel. The little boy is so cute and sensible, and the male lead is both capable and considerate. The early post-apocalyptic scavenging and gathering is exciting and original, and the later zombie-fighting scenes are full of dedication and courage. I highly recommend it.
Aside from being a bit overly guarded and weak-willed in the early stages after her transmigration, which was somewhat infuriating, the plot gets increasingly exciting later on. She gradually becomes more powerful and has a special fondness for her younger brother; he's a real sweetheart. Author, please keep writing and don't stop updating! I want to see how things develop. I hope the female lead's abilities will help the people of the wasteland live better lives.
This is my first time reading this type of story, and the plot is very exciting. The older sister guides her younger brother through numerous challenges, showcasing the female lead's growth from weak to strong. I'm looking forward to the rest of the story! Please update soon!
It's quite good, but two updates a day isn't enough. The female lead isn't the kind who's immediately stunningly beautiful and incredibly capable; she goes through a training process, gradually growing from a novice. It would be even better if there were more of that.
It's a great watch. The female lead is a bit cautious and socially awkward at first, but she becomes confident and strong as she gains power. Her younger brother is adorable and sensible, and the male lead is powerful and warm-hearted. Later, the female lead and her group completely solve the zombie problem (along with Liu Yun and other original base builders), solve the food and meat problems…
Tense, exciting, and full of suspense. The male lead is visible in the first chapter; this isn't one of those recommendations where you can't see him even after dozens of chapters.
At least the beginning was somewhat interesting. I hope this story doesn't become mediocre, because there are too many stories on this subject. I hope they can offer something new. At least the writing is quite good, so I'm giving it a positive review.
