She realized at a very young age that she felt no attachment to anything in this world, whether it flew in the sky or walked on the ground. That was until she accidentally joined the public beta of People of the Past. In the artificial oasis called "Firmament," a corruption known as "Hollow Mind" is rampant.

   Curator note

   The supernatural power sequence genre boasts a vast world-building, a moderate information density, an orderly plot progression, well-rendered atmosphere, genuine and intense emotions, and, as I love, unexpected moments of humor. The writing style is subtle and tasteful. The protagonist is a martial arts novice, and there are many outstanding female characters, each with their own personality and backstory, all well-developed. This is a book that particularly suits my taste; the writing quality is very high. If it weren't for the niche subject matter, its popularity wouldn't be this high. The author's output is also quite consistent. Highly recommended!

2. 2 从 Starting with the Refrigerator 从冰箱开始 Tear The Pillow, Still Sleep撕枕犹眠Romance439k WordsCompleted [Main story complete] Fang Yexin has two secrets, known to very, very few people. First, when she was a child, she nearly died at Gem Beach, where a meteorite was said to have fallen. Second, after she came of age, she gained a special ability, a tiny, glitch-like power. Its only effect was to connect her refrigerator to her neighbor’s, so things from next door would often show up in her own fridge. A meaningless glitch. Not cool at all, with no potential whatsoever. Aside from making her fr 99kFavorites121.5kClicks/ch92.5kGifts

   The premise is intriguing, the plot is full of twists and turns and captivating, the female lead is intelligent, bold, and capable, and the ensemble cast each has their own unique charm. The level of horror is at its peak at the beginning and generally decreases as the mystery unfolds, with occasional ups and downs, while the level of excitement increases in the opposite direction. The humor is evenly distributed, and overall, it's a very enjoyable reading experience.

Though she had died after being betrayed by her family, she did not pass into the cycle of reincarnation. Instead, she arrived in a strange world and was given another chance to play Go. A thousand years had passed. People changed, but the black and white stones on the nineteen-by-nineteen board remained the same. At ten years old, she was reborn as a ten-year-old child.

   This is a genius-themed light novel, and it includes details about playing Go, so your knowledge of Go will affect your reading experience (I ended up having to brush up on some basic knowledge while reading before coming back to continue). The timeline begins with the protagonist's childhood, and there are many adorable interactions between the little girls—very cute!

Ever since she landed face-first in the earth in the sixth year of Zhongping, the brief dream she'd once had has long since vanished. She has an unremarkable face, poor social skills, no family background, and a strange debuff that makes everyone hate her. Not becoming some warlord's unattainable dream girl isn't a big deal.

   Curator note

   I really love Tianze Shiruo's works. Her protagonists all share the same core: resistance and never giving up. They always make me feel that they have infinite possibilities. The plot development and character growth are clean and concise, with more character interactions, making it incredibly endearing. The romance is also significantly strengthened, and the author doesn't disappoint any reader with the foreshadowing. The only regret is that the ending is a climax, and it ends abruptly after the explosion, leaving the reader with a somewhat abrupt feeling. Even though I've gotten used to this length distribution, I still want to say, please write more! Even just as many side stories!

   Personally, I don't really like stories where the protagonist has an overpowered advantage from the start, but this one is a good example. If you're looking for a story about a woman and the sea instead of a "lying down simulator" kind of story, you should give it a try. The plot is currently developing steadily and I feel like it could easily reach two million words. (I'm getting a bit tired of seeing it later, so I'll just stock up on it for now.)

   "Because you were born an indestructible soul that never cries out in pain." I absolutely love this cool-faced yet adorable female lead. She's aloof but has principles, and she's capable, resourceful, and vengeful. The male lead is a quirky, adorable cow-cat who starts with zero-frame chanting. Compared to the author's previous books, the romance has taken a significant leap forward, and their interactions are incredibly cute.

    It's so well written, absolutely unparalleled. A political career story filled with blood and tears, written in excellent style, balancing literary merit with dramatic flair, where everyone feels a tragic sense of helplessness in the face of the tides of history. The synopsis looks like a light novel but it's actually a serious drama, mainly focusing on political struggles. However, the writing style is quite interesting. Through nonsensical humor, you can see a lot of philosophical thoughts on concepts such as society and existence. It has a bit of absurd realism, which I really like.

    This is my favorite book by Tianze Shiruo so far. The story reaches its climax at the end, making for a better reading experience. I personally think the most exciting part is the last dozen or so chapters, which are written in a flamboyant and unrestrained style, yet the overall feel is very fitting. It has a very fundamentalist and cult-like vibe, which I love. The way the foreshadowing is resolved is an essential part of the book. The biggest regret is that the world-building is very interesting, but it's a real pity that it wasn't expanded upon or written in more detail.

    I've always loved the design of Zhizhu's storylines, and the way the world-building unfolded was quite unexpected. The most captivating aspect is probably the protagonist's emotional journey, which is also perhaps the most controversial part of the book. Personally, I think that while stereotypical character designs can attract a fixed audience, characters who grow and develop are truly vibrant and engaging.

No one knew that inside her was the aged soul of someone who had spent sixty years tormented by an impossible dream.

    "If the soul always cries out in anguish for its dreams, then fate will hear it." This story, written in 2016, is quite enjoyable if you can tolerate a touch of nostalgia. Although it's set in the entertainment industry, it doesn't feel overly glamorous. The protagonist's emotional journey and interpersonal relationships are portrayed with remarkable composure. The script is detailed and well-developed, similar to an episodic drama. (P. S. This can be viewed as an alternative form of quick transmigration/infinite flow based on the real world.)

    The story initially unfolds along two parallel storylines: reality and the game. The game setting is similar to D&D/BG3, which might be a slight comprehension barrier for readers unfamiliar with it, but it's not a major issue. While the subject matter appears quite serious, the author writes in a lighthearted style, with the protagonist being the darling of the group. It's suitable as a light read.

    It's a crime drama, but the presentation is very novel. The main plot and cases are well connected, and the romance doesn't feel abrupt. The author has a mature writing style and his books are quite famous.

    The existence of the "golden finger" (a cheat code) sets it apart from classic supernatural tales, but the dungeon design is still brilliant when viewed purely as an infinite loop. Personally, I felt the main storyline was a little awkward, and the romance subplot was almost unnecessary.

    This is a very solid article on infrastructure development, clearly explaining everything from its initial proposal to its implementation. It might be a bit challenging to read as a light read, but if you can get into it, it's truly enjoyable. The portrayal of ordinary people's lives is very realistic, breaking down any filters and connecting with the masses; the author must have a high level of political acumen. It's really long; I haven't finished it yet.

    This is the story of a woman who travels through time, goes through a mental breakdown, rebuilds herself, and gradually changes the era. Her spiritual pillar changes from "living like a human being" to "making the era better." It depicts the devastation that backward feudal ideology and politics inflict on the spirit of modern people. The author's writing is delicate, the ending is satisfactory, and the romantic subplot, as a part of the growth story, is unavoidable and is described in considerable detail.
