All-You-Can-Read Soccer Novels
Feel-Good Stories with Female Leads I Love
Female protagonist-focused, feel-good power fantasy
A Varied Reading List, Fully Subscribed by a 20-Year Veteran Reader
A bit of everything, both BG and BL. If it's good, that's all that matters.
Highly Recommended: Strong Female Leads and Plot-Driven Feel-Good Stories, Part 1
My booklist is full, but I have another list in my profile: "Completed Works, Fully Purchased." I prefer feel-good stories to Mary Sue stories. I'd rather become strong than be loved by someone strong, and I prefer talented supporting heroines to fighting for favor.
Feel-Good Reads with Athletic Protagonists, Any Romance or Cheat Ability
Koshien baseball + running + volleyball + soccer + more (any orientation, original works and fanfiction alike; the only guarantee is that the protagonists are talented and the stories are satisfying). Some are abandoned.
Competitive Sports! Esports!
All kinds of sports competition stories
Female-Led Competitive Sports Stories
Table tennis, women's volleyball, soccer, track and field, swimming, and more. There was one book I followed as it was coming out and stocked up on half of it, then forgot about it. I haven't felt like reading swimming stories lately, so I haven't picked it back up.
Stories About Building a Thriving Career
Sports: Original and Fanfiction Mix
I love feel-good power fantasies, especially level-up stories. I'm open to all kinds of pairings, and I read both original works and fanfiction. Be sure to check the tags.
Temporary List: Female-Protagonist Sports Fiction
Clearing out my collection. Sports and competition stories. I haven't necessarily read them all. Female protagonists. If not specified, assume the focus is on the plot.
Charisma
Whether they're cute, funny, adorably bratty, tsundere, calm, cold, short-tempered, or invincibly overpowered...
Soccer Novels (Couldn't Give Them Five Stars, So I Added One Star to Each)
Four stars: Finished and great, or currently following. Three stars: Didn't finish, too long ago to remember, or okay but not good enough. Two stars or below: Terrible endings, abandoned mid-serialization, or major poison.

A Quirky Little Reading List
I don't know if they're good or not, but the plots are unusual, even strange. I haven't read some of these either, but their summaries sound interesting and they're pretty rare. Stars in the list

I finally finished reading the story after a long hiatus. Sure enough, I initially planned Li Kun as Jingjing's romantic partner. However, his screen time was far too limited, and frankly, he wasn't very important. I only thought of Li Kun because the tag was "romance," and there weren't many men of similar age in the story…
I finally finished watching it! It's so great to see everyone living better lives now, ahhhhhh I'm so happy!
The early parts were fine as a yuri (lesbian) substitute, with cute interactions and genuine emotions. However, towards the end, when it started to force a romance label, it became incredibly rushed and half-hearted. The romance was less compelling than the stories about the girls' family backgrounds.
Today, the Women's World Cup group stage match was a success. Seeing Wang Shuang reminded me of an article I had read before.
It's been a few months since I finished writing this, but the Men's World Cup reminded me of it, so I'm revisiting it. I wish the Chinese women's football team great success in the 2023 World Cup, and I hope the female players training abroad can improve their skills and broaden their horizons. I also hope more girls will participate in school sports to develop their character instead of just watching boys' basketball games.
I really love this book; I wish there were similar ones.
That's reality... In reality, women's football ultimately hasn't developed as well as expected. Sigh.
Because the World Cup is being reviewed again.
When I read about the blind date in this chapter, it suddenly occurred to me: does this story have a male lead? There should be romance, I think there is, but did the author write it and I forgot, or did they not write it at all? The author's note gave me the answer: no, they didn't write it. I thought my memory was playing tricks on me.
That's great, Wang Yiheng in the side story is more likable than the one in the main story.
