Period Novels

Good novels set in a bygone era.

Romance | Period Pieces | Mainland China | No Crime Investigation

No crime investigation or Hong Kong stories (those are on a separate list). I like feel-good stories where the protagonist starts from nothing, builds a career, and falls in love. I'm not into military stories, so they won't feature much.

Family Life and Everyday Living, with a Little Side Business

Romance, especially stories set in different eras, historical spin-offs, and historical romance. I like plots and romance in equal measure. I'm allergic to over-the-top Mary Sues, and I don't want harem favorites, anime-style, or pretentious literary fiction.

Come on in and Check Out Some Farming Stories

I'm a passionate fan of farming stories! This list has a mix of infrastructure-building, husband-and-male-spouse stories, and stories set in a bygone era, but I'm picky. I can't stand illogical plots or ridiculously overpowered golden fingers, and I like a bit of romance... Come on, everyone!
