    I've been reading for 15 years. I started with Xiaoxiang Literature, but I don't like cultivation or fantasy novels; I prefer female-centric stories. I used to read on Jinjiang Literature City, and later I read a few good books on a browser, such as *Mo Sang*, *The Wei-Jin Dry Rice Man*, *A Thousand Pieces of Gold*, and *The Little Lucky Girl of the Farmhouse*. I just randomly picked some to read on Tomato Literature City. Some started strong but ended weakly, and some I haven't finished yet. One of my favorites, *My Livestream Room Connects the Past and Present*, was abandoned by the author. My absolute favorite is *The Short-Lived Ghost of the Xie Family Lived to a Hundred Years Old*, and the ending really gave me quite a jolt. I feel the author should have added an epilogue.
