Books I Like!
Collecting some books I enjoy and ones I'm following now.
I Have a Pot of Fine Wine and a Tale to Tell, Would You Care to Listen?
The bright moon startles magpies from the branches; cicadas sing in the midnight breeze. The night sky over the stone steps is cool as water; I lie and watch the stars Cowherd and Weaver Girl. The moon sets, crows cry, and frost fills the sky; I sleep troubled beside the river maples and fishing lights. Autumn candlelight chills the painted screen; a light silk fan swats at fireflies. Perhaps I’m not good at telling stories, but I’m certainly good at chatting. I browse the forums and turn throug

A Seasoned Bookworm's Reading List
A longtime reader of ten years, following only books that don't abandon their plots, go off the rails, or insult the reader's intelligence!
Books Worth Reading, Only Added After I Finish Them
Books I love 😍, the ones I read again and again. My shelf has no room left, so this is the perfect place for them!
Novels That Leave You Happy and Energized
A curated selection of all kinds of good books. My standards: they should leave you feeling satisfied, without too much filler, and the protagonist shouldn't be a robot, a heartless person, or an idiot. They should have both intelligence and emotional awareness. They can have ambitions, but shouldn't be ruthless plunderers. The plot should be compelling, not just the same thing repeated over and over. Books that meet these standards are worth keeping, in my opinion, and I'm willing to pay to rea
In a Reading Slump? I've Read for Years and Know a Thing or Two. Not for Beginners
I'll update this list with quality novels from time to time. No novice-level writing, just strong prose and no harem protagonists. Some may have one or two love interests, but nothing too off-putting, and the romance won't be too bad. Any genre is welcome; I have broad tastes. I'm not great at writing introductions, so please bear with me. Hopefully I get the gist across... probably. Note: Space on the list is limited, so I'll remove older books, except for ones I consider excellent, such as Sn

Twenty Years as a Veteran Reader, with a Keen Eye for Good Books
I've read countless protagonists and seen every familiar trope. Now that I'm middle-aged, I just want to find good books that make me happy.
A Little Bit of Everything, Full of Flavor!!
Books are like food: it's all about whether you like them. There's no distinction between expensive and cheap, highbrow and lowbrow, famous authors and newcomers. I love a big mixed pot!!!
No Shallow, Brain-Dead Stories
The plots are logically sound, free of major annoyances, and the writing is definitely up to par. The urban novels I recommend have details that feel realistic. The cultivation novels have, in my opinion, a pretty rich imagination, without inexplicably weak beginnings, humiliated protagonists, or idiotic villains. The slice-of-life stories are all beloved by snarky readers 😄. The science fiction-leaning stories have calm-headed protagonists, and evenly matched rivals make the whole book more com
These Are Good Books
I'm sharing these with friends who enjoy lighthearted comedies. Many of these books will have you laughing out loud, and their exciting plots will keep you hooked. What they have in common is straightforward, solid writing and characters with normal human intelligence, along with just the right amount of swagger! I hate books where everyone but the protagonist is an idiot, but these really are different!
Hundred-Grass Garden Bookshop
There are fewer and fewer books worth reading these days. I've checked these out, and they're to my taste. I'll keep updating the list. P.S. I mainly read alternate-history urban entertainment and industrial fiction.
Shibu Xing and Wang Yu
Shi Buxing's Ren Huang is still unforgettable. Wang Yu's A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality.

Xiang Yu's Battle of Julu and Battle of Pengcheng were not a ten-fold comparison of military strength. In the Battle of Julu, the Qin army was even more elite after the great victory, and its morale was high. The Chu army led by Xiang Yu broke the cauldron and destroyed the Qin army. After the war, the spectators on the wall knelt to see him. In the Battle of Pengcheng, Xiang Yu defeated the Han coalition army with 30,000 soldiers in one night. Fifty thousand, Chen Qingzhi's three thousand white robes crossed the millions of troops in the Northern Wei Dynasty. There was a legend that thousands of troops avoided the white robes. Yue Fei resisted the Jin and carried the Wei army to face the invincible Jin Kingdom's founding army. He won every battle and gained a reputation of regretting the mountains and the Yue family's army. Qi Jiguang's Qi family's army fought against the Japanese pirates and Yuan. The Yang formation cooperates with elite soldiers, and the casualty ratio is often 1 to thousands. Every time I watch it, my blood boils, and my mood is surging after the cover-up. The time-honored battle camp of the Ming Dynasty has equipment and technology beyond the times, and first-class quality. It has been tempered for many years since the founding of the country. In terms of quality and tactics, it is no worse than the Yue Family Army. It can be said that it is worse. Strong, with the right time, place, and people, and the soldiers are dedicated to their lives. Facing only twice the standing army of Chu and the ordinary elite Fire Phoenix Army, they just fought for their lives with so-called blood. When the battle started, they were suppressed by trebuchets. After the war, more than half of the casualties in the time-honored battle camp, the miner camp suffered 60% losses, and the victory still had It is a fluke that the cavalry of the Fire Phoenix Army has been eliminated, otherwise it will fail. What kind of bullshit elite troops are they? Even twice as much is a tragic victory. How will the Qi State fight in the future? The Emperor of Qi is Cao Yun, the God of War. There may be a large-scale surrender, with a standing army of one million and a hundred thousand dragon troops. The foundation is much thicker than that of the Ming Dynasty. How many people did the Ming army have to fill it? The so-called veteran battle camp has doubled the elite soldiers and the opponent has already defeated the opponent miserably. Does the Ming Dynasty have 100 veteran battle camps that have been tempered for thousands of years? If not, just wash up and sleep. In the cold weapon era Elite soldiers, I can only laugh. Gunslinger, you have spent so many chapters describing the path of elite soldiers in the Ming Army. You rewarded craftsmen heavily, developed technology, had the best steel, the most accurate intelligence, and equipped armor and weapons that surpassed the opponent's several levels. It's not easy to read a book. The Kingdom of Chu is tragic, but blood can save the country. The Song and Ming Dynasties will not be destroyed. It's breathtaking to read. I hope you can understand how real elite soldiers exist in the ancient cold weapon era. They can defeat ten groups with one force. Elite soldiers are dedicated to conquering disobedience. They are not used to win tragic victories.
Let's put it this way, the protagonist's subordinates betrayed him, killed more than 1,500 brothers, and tortured and killed a pregnant woman with his own hands. Then, in order to show the glory of human nature, the author did not kill this subordinate.
[Comment] The protagonist is obviously Qin Feng, but look at Cheng Gaoyuan and faint!

Report the book Total War of Conquest
From chapter 370 to chapter 394, they are all insults to the vanguard.
It's always the same routine, it's really boring
Firearms will always be developed, and then the enemies will become weaklings. Too many time-travel novels at the starting point are written like this. This kind of writing method is copied from each other. Really boring. Can't we write something exciting? It's boring to always rely on weapons to crush people.
Please send me a map. The geographical location becomes more and more confusing.
Is Wuzhou close to the sea? How are the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River and the six counties in the east arranged? Can any expert draw a picture? Thank you very much.
Halfway through, I suddenly felt that each of the four countries of Ming, Qi, Chu, and Qin was bordering the other three countries. Is this possible? This map is wrong no matter how you draw it.
After reading a chapter, they are basically modern words. . Ancient historical novels are too uncomfortable to read using modern words. . . The ancients would say this when meeting someone: "What are you doing?"
