[Candid Reviews] Great Writing and Plot, Thrilling Stories, and Lighthearted Comedy
I've been a bookworm for over a decade, with countless secret identities. I've read everything from Jin Yong and Gu Long to today's web-novel greats, as well as classic works by the Four Great Classical Novels authors, Lu Xun, Eileen Chang, and others. I write books myself, and just want to share some with everyone. Every book on this list is at least worth a look. Some have beautiful prose, interesting facts, and real depth. Some have great plots and moving stories that you just can't put do

Is this servant the one that Master Lian used to vent his lust?
This is a novel that is half original to Dream of the Red Chamber and half haphazardly written by the author.
This author copied excerpts from the original Dream of the Red Chamber for each chapter in order to reach the word count ☞ Hahaha, what a shameless and despicable way to cheat money.
That's really toxic. Isn't he a time traveler? How come he's just like that old lackey? All he does is mutter to himself about how cruel others are and how unfair fate is. I think he's even worse than a lackey.
Just for hitting Xue Pan, you're doomed. And given how much Jia Mu values her reputation, a servant boy hitting his master is a death sentence.
Things that can't survive more than three chapters and are forcibly made to be coherent
I recommend "So Many Prideful Men in the Dream of the Red Chamber", "Uncle Lai in the Dream of the Red Chamber", and "The Dream of the Red Chamber: My Father is Xia Shouzhong". The common feature of these three books is that the authors have excellent writing skills, which bring the characters to life and make them very immersive.
Is this a novel or a thesis? There's no originality or storytelling at all; it's boring.
Even a servant who dares to talk back to his master could be beaten to death, so how could you be so arrogant? At least make some sense in your writing.
Has writer Cao returned after so many submissions?
