800+ Purchases: Five-Star Book List ③
I mainly read stories with female leads. I like strong heroines and heartwarming, moving stories. Read after January 2026.
Truly Independent and Self-Reliant Strong Female Leads
Strong female leads with career storylines, not brainless wish fulfillment. If you don't like stories where the woman is strong but the man is even stronger, move along.
Great No-Romance Novels
A record of the good no-CP stories I've read. Some are ongoing and I'm still following them, so my opinions may change.

Had Enough of the Rankings, So Here Are Some I Personally Love
I've been reading web novels for over a decade, but I can't stand the rankings anymore. I went to Qidian for a while, but that's a huge mess too. There are fewer and fewer stories I can stick with.

This god of all demons, is he the Lord of Eternity? The one who pulled Old Yang from Earth to the magical plane?!
It's that time of year again, ending after defeating the first boss. It feels like there's so much more to write, making me anxiously anticipate a spin-off, but I definitely won't be writing one… With these interconnected endings across several books, I'm sure they'll be writing a proper grand settlement between Old Yang and the Eternal Lord.
I watched "Conquering Another World Starts with a Game" again and realized that the Eternal Lord who anchored Yang Qiu might actually be this God of Demons. The Eternal Lord is also just trying to escape the material plane and dumping garbage everywhere 😂
I've followed so many of her books. I've finished reading this one too, and it's not that it's bad. The outline is definitely possible, but the character development feels weaker and weaker. The male lead, Ayun, and Lao Yang truly embody their personalities and growth paths through every detail. The other male characters are from the earlier period, so they feel rather ordinary.
I want to see more of the three orphans' time-travel story! I'm begging for extra chapters!
Don't run away, madam! Write a side story about Old Yang beating up a 1.6-Meter-tall guy.
Eternal Lord, you... I want to see Old Yang come and fight! 🐶
I want to see more side stories about the Xuanjiao Sect! 🎆[Cat paw]🎆
Congratulations on the completion! I just finished rereading "Conquering Another World Starts with a Game," and now this story is already finished. It's a bit of a shame; I feel like there's still so much more to write about... Are there any side stories? I want to see Lao Yang and Lao Fan become friends and roast the God of Demons together—but I still don't want Lao Fan's identity to be exposed.
Can we expect a side story? 😭 Has the Elf King been released? 😭
