   I feel like the person to the left of the winter melon looks more alive. Is that just my imagination?

   Personally, I prefer the island survival story. The author of this one spreads out too many elements, trying to include everything in the protagonist's life, giving it a somewhat old-fashioned feel. However, with so many elements, the focus becomes scattered, and the story structure becomes less tight. It's worth reading if you're looking for something to read.

3. 3 昏 A Tyrant, but Only Five Years Old 昏君，但只有五岁 Wu Shi雾十Danmei (BL)720k WordsCompleted Maomao had a cloth tiger that he treasured more than anything. One day, the little tiger started talking.

   Finally! I have! A! Book! To read! At first, I hesitated for a long time because of the title and synopsis. I haven't had any books to read for the past six months, so I started reading romance novels. This one finally lived up to its high rating and quality. Compared to many of the books on the current list, this one has logic, good writing, and a good plot. Do you know how difficult it is to have logic? (Tears of joy)

5. 5 灵 Sweet Springs and Farming 灵泉种田有点甜 Spring Mountain Still Has Branches春山犹枝Danmei (BL)1.5M WordsCompleted After dying from overwork and being reborn, Qiao Ning comes to a realization: you only live once, so you might as well be happy.

   It was quite interesting at the beginning, but the later parts became too repetitive and lost their appeal. Unless you're looking for something to read, you can put it aside for a while.

6. 6 海 Island Survival: Life-Type Player Farms and Hoards Goods 海岛求生：生活玩家种田囤货 Fei Yi绯夷Danmei (BL)2.8M WordsOngoing Nan Liujing woke up to learn that he'd been kidnapped by an evil game System called Island Survival. From then on, he had to say goodbye to Blue Star and spend the rest of his life tied to a barren little island. What do you mean, one island from the start and everything else has to be earned through grinding? Faced with a desolate island where not even birds would land, Nan Liujing's hoarding instincts kicked in. No way. He had to start grinding!!! He went beachcombing, farmed, raised slimes, a 130.6kFavorites126.4kClicks/ch3.2MGifts

   Curator note

   Every few months I really crave farming scenes. Everyone should play Harvest Moon! The story incorporates elements from multiple farming games, making it quite enjoyable to read. The author has a very creative mind and is seriously integrating templates from various games to form their own unique approach. Currently, it mainly focuses on the Harvest Moon series, which will feel familiar to those who have played it. I look forward to the protagonist becoming a great rancher.

7. 7 全 Global Survival: From a Small Wooden Cabin to a Magic Farm 全民求生:从小木屋到魔法农场 Shi Ruyi时如意Danmei (BL)1.0M WordsOngoing After struggling to survive for ten years in the apocalypse, Qi Yu was pulled into a world that called itself a survival game.

   It's alright. (Really, it's just alright. At first, it was a substitute for the one in my island book, but after reading it again, it's actually quite interesting. We'll see how it develops.)

   There are still quite a few bugs, and the logic sometimes doesn't hold up, but what does it matter? As long as the ideas are imaginative and interesting, that's all that matters, especially in April when this list of articles is all over the place.

9. 9 人 The Ultimate Guide to Wasting Your Life 人生浪费宝典 Gray Valley灰谷Danmei (BL)646k WordsCompleted Gu Yuting's car was caught in a landslide on the highway, and he came within a hair's breadth of dying in the wilderness. Luckily, Yu Shu saved his life, and he made it back alive. Grateful for the favor, Gu Yuting brought Yu Shu home with him. Yu Shu had lived in the mountains since childhood, cut off from the world. He knew nothing about social customs or how the world worked. That was all right. Gu Yuting could teach him, little by little.

   At first, I thought the synopsis might not be that appealing, but after finishing it, I found the author's ideas to be clear and the theme well-defined, and the tension between the main characters was also very interesting. It's my new favorite this year.
