Plot-Driven Reads, No Hand-Holding: 1. Sci-Fi
A mix of hard and soft sci-fi, including both civilization-building stories and tales of the protagonist's growth. These are sci-fi novels I think suit my tastes: they have fresh settings, relatively complete frameworks, and are enjoyable to read. The male and female leads shouldn't be total airheads, and they should have some brains. The plot shouldn't be so predictable that you know the ending from the opening, and a few surprises are always welcome. The prose shouldn't be a string of exam-sty

Famine Relief for Book Lovers
I got hooked on web novels with Bad Guy, then moved on to simplistic novels, and I've kept reading ever since. My standards have gotten pickier, and I've come to prefer more realistic stories. Good novels are hard to find. So I'm sharing some of the books I've read, hoping we can urge the authors to update and follow the stories together.

Chu Qiu's Reading List
Writing: Simply put, this refers to an author's basic command of language and ability to tell a story. Themes: This means the ideas and messages traditionally found in literary works. Web novels do have their own peculiarities, of course, but I venture to say that a web novel's themes can generally be judged from two angles. First, the issues the author seeks to examine, along with the ideas and emotions conveyed through the work. Second, the perspective from which the work approaches its subjec
A Bookworm's List: One Billion Characters Read
I've been reading web novels since volunteering at the 2010 World Expo, so it's been n years. I've gone from obscure apps to Zhui Shu Shen Qi, and now support authors by reading on Qidian. I've read well over a billion words. This list records old favorites I still remember and new books I'm following now. Creativity: original, distinctive ideas that break new ground. Plot: strong characterization, foreshadowing, and twists. Emotion: excitement, heartfelt moments, comedy, or warmth.

In an era saturated with dark and ruthless protagonists, this book stands out as a breath of fresh air. Sometimes I truly can't understand why anyone would enjoy reading about a world of low morality and cold-heartedness. The book's greatest strength lies in the fact that every character feels like a real person. Even the main character is human, possessing compassion and a sense of responsibility, unlike many novels where the protagonist resorts to any means for power.
I've read a bit and think the author's character portrayal is quite good; their interpersonal skills are excellent. So why did they have to criticize everything after provoking such a mess? So many comments in the first 20 chapters are probably just nitpicking. Scientific errors are fine, it's not science fiction, so criticism is fine too. The character portrayal is great, so why the criticism?

Meticulous in detail, logically structured, and exquisitely written, it's impeccable except for the lack of supernatural abilities. A rare gem of a story.
The story and writing are both good. It's true science fiction, but there are too few genuine science fiction novels. It's not hard science fiction, nor does it need to be. As long as it's not some mindless, over-the-top, pretentious, and mindless wish-fulfillment story, it's fine.

Now I finally understand why this book isn't popular. I've read 10% of it, which is 300,000 words, and all 300,000 words are about war. The writing is decent, but the constant killing of insects and fighting gets tiresome. The second flaw is the female lead; she's nauseating. It's good that the author is gradually reducing her screen time. The third flaw is the conquest.
I'll only add to my collection if it's not a post-apocalyptic rebirth story! Rebirth-themed post-apocalyptic novels are nauseating. People who should be mature after experiencing everything seem less intelligent than those who weren't reborn. Does flowing back in time cause an intelligence loss? Hmm, this is perhaps a topic worth discussing among readers.
I've seen many people analyzing why this book isn't popular, and attributing it to superpowers is completely illogical. Even a fake hero doesn't have any superpowers, right? Why are those other books so popular? Because they have exciting moments, which this book has very few. What are those exciting moments? They evoke a sense of exhilaration at crucial moments.
I strongly recommend reading the book first before reading the reviews, otherwise a good book will be criticized as a bad one, which is pointless.
