Super Good
Excellent writing, plot, pacing, and worldbuilding overall. BG or no-CP. Pretty subjective, and I’m wary of obsessive bottom fans.
The Many Facets of Women
Great reads with all kinds of heroines and female supporting characters, worth coming back to again and again. Jinjiang has been ruthlessly purging stories about women, so after finishing the older ones, I stopped updating this list.
Saving These
I hope I find something that hits the spot every time I look for a book.

Really Great Free Reads! (Ongoing Updates)
I Really Love These
Highly recommended

These are all quite interestingly written. I can come back and reread them when I have nothing else to do.

If I paid for the whole book, it must be a good one.
Finding a Good Read Is So Hard
Power Couple Romance
A collection of great romances with equally matched leads, both strong in their careers and in love, rising to the top together. They're just so good! If you're out of things to read, dive right in without hesitation.
BG Stories I Really Love
Pretty Good Free Stories, Average Rating 9.7
Some high-quality completely free works, mainly BG, with a small amount of no-couple fiction.
My Subscription History: Can’t Give Anything After This Five Stars
I prefer stories focused on careers and plot, and don't ask much of the romance. It can be absent entirely. I mainly read historical fiction, crossover anime, crossover Western fandoms, showbiz, period dramas, infinite flow, and more.

A Look at the Novels I've Read on Jinjiang Over the Years
My tastes are pretty varied: modern romance, historical romance, fantasy, sci-fi, and more. The only guarantee is that the female lead won't be pushed around, and the male lead won't steal her spotlight.

Unable to sleep in the middle of the night, I suddenly felt like rereading "The Search"—I couldn't even remember the title at first, but I remembered the soothing yet deeply moving feeling I had when I first read the ending. Of all the novels I read back then, the only long review I seem to have was about casting. Looking back, it was still incredibly brilliant, with a lingering aftertaste. Truly wonderful. Truly wonderful.
After watching it, I felt like I'd just gone through a breakup, my heart felt empty 🥺 The female lead's charm is so great! The emotional turmoil between the two characters at Kiyokawa Temple was also particularly well done, I really loved it…
Will you revise the text after finishing Sword Pavilion? (Actually, I think the first version was better.)
I love Lin Koukou so much, she's so charming!
My favorite urban romance novel, although I didn't really like the ending and hated the male lead for life.
This writing is amazing, author!
Good writing really does save the day
"The Search" is one of my favorite workplace novels. It's incredibly good!!! A must-read! The subtle, almost imperceptible, romance between the male and female leads is so captivating! The unspoken details are so alluring!

Seeing the word "marriage" felt off, and when I looked at the last chapter in the table of contents, I realized I was starving!
