I Love Feel-Good Reads, but I Don't Like Sugar-Free Cola
Romance. I like power fantasies where the heroine starts off in a tough spot and struggles to make it on her own. I enjoy transmigrate-into-a-book, reborn, and historical-era stories. No overpowered veterans steamrolling the beginner village.

For Personal Use: My Years of Finding Land Mines on Xiao Lv
Lately I've been reading more fanfiction than original fiction. I tend to prefer feel-good stories and fluffy, brain-off reads, or stories focused on close platonic relationships. My preferences: platonic relationships > no romance > danmei = straight romance > yuri.
The Finest BG Romance I've Read in Fifteen Years
Romance-focused, with a preference for ironclad happy endings. Modern, historical, and alternate settings; groveling arcs, villains, comedy, ensemble casts, mysteries, and historical stories too. I'll read anything, it's all good nourishment.

Historical Fanfiction Recommendations
My personal collection, mostly no-CP stories based on history, plus devoted romance and romance (a mixed bag, including some I haven't finished). About 80% are about Qin. Brother Zheng is so handsome! The First Emperor as a kid is so adorable!

Infinite-loop stories, crime investigation, post-apocalyptic settings, rule-based horror, nonhuman characters

There's nothing really wrong with these stories, but I just love dropping novels too much, haha. I'll save them here. I mostly really enjoyed them while reading.

I love this book so much, it would be great if it could be made into a TV series
I read this book a long time ago, but I didn't expect that I can still read it before it expires. I really like the male and female protagonists of this book! I really think they are a perfect match! There are actually people who say that their emotions are sloppy. Stop! See if I can beat you!
It looks good. Everyone should read it. Great article
Looks good! I can't remember how many times I swiped it, I love Taozi and Han Qi so much!
This book was so uncomfortable towards the end. I don't know if it was affected by the author's sleep problems, but I felt that it was neither good nor bad. The beginning was really good, the characters of the male and female protagonists were charlatable, and the suspense and social aspects of the story were just right. But when it came to the royal family, I wanted to leave the book in suspense, but I was afraid that the protagonist would be incompetent, which would lead to a lack of "refreshment" for the reader, which would make the reader feel constrained, but it would be inappropriate. I hope the author can adjust himself and improve his sleep condition.
Suddenly I remembered, why was Judge Wang so evasive and vague when explaining the facts of the case? Is there really no explanation or did I miss it?
Just in time to watch! The ending is also very impressive. It doesn't feel like it starts at the beginning or ends at the end, but there are too few extras to watch. I hope it can be made into a film and TV show soon [Let Me Kangkang]
Hahahaha, the emotional scenes are indeed a bit sloppy, but the whole article is beautiful!
I didn't see the preview article in the author column.
This book is very suitable for filming a TV series
