   9/10. A gentle and peaceful story, with moments of tension, romance, and healing. The two main characters are mature, rational, open-minded, clear-headed, and determined. The downside is that their characters are too perfect (in terms of family background and career), making them feel a bit unrealistic. The writing style can also feel slightly pretentious, but it's not a major flaw. I read this book around the same time as the one I read later, and since the main characters are similar, I'll be comparing them. Personally, I think this one is better.

   8.5/10. The writing is good, and the emotional entanglements are well-balanced. Sometimes I just want to read about perfect romance between two-dimensional characters, so I can completely accept some of the slightly simplistic elements that come with a plot-driven feel. However, the pacing is a bit too slow. If this book were around 350,000 words, the pacing would be much better. I consider myself a patient reader who has read countless long novels, but the reveal of the male lead's identity took far too long… I started reading because of the synopsis, and ended up reading 200,000 words in the middle.

   8/10. A story of a doting, older, and devoted seme who guides the uke (submissive partner). The uke is somewhat sacrificial. This author seems to really like older brother/younger sister romance novels. Both characters love each other, but they're not evenly distributed; the uke clearly loves the younger one more. The plot is decent; I got most of the satisfying moments. However, the uke's all-powerful, all-carrying-the-scenes-all-powerful setup still made me a little uncomfortable.

   8/10. So sweet and cute xql (a Chinese internet slang term for a sweet and adorable romance novel). The plot isn't very well written; the main storyline is unengaging and a bit confusing. However, the romance is sweet and the characters are adorable. The beginning is good and full of witty moments.

   Priest's masterful work, a solitary yet brilliant ensemble piece. After finishing it, I felt a profound sense of loss and the capriciousness of fate; where does the path of the "ants" lead? This isn't exactly a feel-good story, and I rarely read without a romantic pairing, so including it is purely out of personal preference. I shipped several couples, but my favorite is Yingping; that's what happens when there's no romance—you want to savor everything, haha.

   9.5. A truly perfect story. The main character is wonderfully portrayed—intelligent, resilient, worldly-wise yet not cynical. The author's writing is also excellent, with a great pacing. I was left wanting more after finishing it. Although this book doesn't have a romantic pairing, I shipped several couples. It's a very vivid, three-dimensional, and genuinely emotional ensemble piece.

"I once hated the bright moon that hung high, yet seldom shone on me; later I hated the flaw in the white jade, the pearl covered in dust." The young master, orphaned and living under the roof of others, once envied the successful and charismatic young nobleman, but when the latter's family suffered misfortune and he became crippled, it was he who sacrificed everything he had worked for for years, gave up his title as the top scholar, and, despite his own incurable illness, rescued the other from dire straits. The author's writing is also excellent; highly recommended!

    A 9 out of 10 excellent ensemble piece with a great plot and writing style. I love it! The main couple doesn't have a lot of screen time, and the romance develops slowly, but it's very cute.

    9/10! It's unbelievable that this book sold for less than 20,000 copies! The career and romance storylines are both excellent [doge emoji with rose in hand]. I love reading strong, mutually pampering interstellar novels with a dominant male lead, but this author's work doesn't have that dominant male-centric feel of some other authors. The two strong characters are evenly matched, a perfect balance. No wonder it's a double A-rank novel – so delicious! The only downside might be the slow pacing; the second half gets a bit draggy, but it's still great! The author's other works have a slightly simplistic writing style and plot, so this one is much better.

    9.3 Points. The character design, plot, and writing are truly perfect. However, I personally like to balance things out; I don't really like the male lead being an emperor, older, and an alpha all at once. Such a doting male lead makes me feel unbalanced, so I deducted a little. But the male lead's character is so good and captivating, with very deep emotions, and it perfectly satisfies my non-human fantasy… The male lead's character is beautiful, strong, and tragic; this is a genuine story of two strong characters.

    8.5. The character designs are very appealing. The main issue is that the first half of the book isn't as engaging as the main couple's; the male lead feels somewhat like a background character with limited screen time, and the lack of war scenes in the later part only exacerbates the problem. It seems the author favors the male lead's older brother, who is indeed a very charismatic character. The male lead's descent into darkness in the middle is very compelling, but the ending isn't great. If the book were shorter and the male lead's screen time increased, the reading experience would likely be much better.

    8.5/10. A fast-paced, action-packed business novel set in a historical period; the kind that leaves you wanting more. Some parts are quite sexually charged. The plot is strong, the romance is decent, and the main focus is on satisfying reads. It's biased towards the protagonist (the bottom).

Based on the plot and character development, it could have been a 9.5, But the reading experience wasn't particularly good. The storyline dragged on too long, and some of the supporting characters were rather dim-witted.

The pinnacle of uke, Lin Jingheng (kneeling in admiration), and the interstellar sweetheart Lu Bixing (sprinkling flowers). This flawed work is the very reason I created this list; it's the source of all my fantasies. The plot, character design, and romance are all impeccable, including my favorite elements like interstellar, strong-strong, pseudo-incest, uniformed commander, military-political couple, and younger-older-older love. I reread it every year; I wish I could forget everything and reread it again [laughing and crying emoji].

The two acting masters get addicted to their roles and end up deeply entangled in the relationship, haha. The supporting characters are a bit dim-witted.
