Top Picks from a 15-Year Veteran Reader
I started reading novels in 2002, when Zhu Xian was just beginning to take off. I've read continuously ever since, finishing roughly one every two weeks. That adds up to several thousand books, and I've definitely read billions of words. Here are some recommendations: five completed books and five new ones.
Zangzang Mao's Book Reviews
This list features works of many kinds. A book needs to be at least worth reading to make the cut. Poor writing is an automatic rejection, but I'll make exceptions for originality, creativity, and wild ideas. I'm a picky list curator, and I regularly cull abandoned novels! Abandoned books must go!!
A Lovely Way to Unwind ;-)
Fresh, fun books worth checking out. This list includes plenty of books with bizarre titles or unusual premises that are nevertheless fantastic. Most of them are still ongoing, so let's show them some support. I've added every book here to my own shelf and read it carefully. Most are novels I'm currently following. I haven't included completed classics like A Mortal's Journey to Immortality, Shrouding the Heavens, Battle Through the Heavens, Stellar Transformation, or Douluo Dalu. They're alread
Books I Follow Daily and Revisit Often
Great books I still revisit after finishing them. Some are pure wish fulfillment, some moved me, and some are classics by master authors, full of rich content and countless dangling plot threads that all get resolved in the end.
A Food and Fantasy / Xuanhuan / Sci-Fi Collection by Xian Yu, With No Female Lead or One Female Lead
If you're tired of harem stories and don't want reverse-harem palace-intrigue stories either, my list should be right up your alley. Some books aren't finished yet, though, and if they turn into harem stories or add a harem later, I'll remove them to make room for other works. I usually follow the books I recommend for a long time before adding them, so you can already feel fairly confident about the ones here. That's why the list updates very slowly... slowly... slowly...

Easygoing Fanfiction, No Real-World Headaches, Just Idealistic Escapism
Real life is stressful enough, so when I read fiction, I prefer a high starting point from the start. I generally include lighthearted stories, farming stories, and tales of invincibility. I recommend the EVA fanfic To the Cowardly, a Heart of Iron. I also recommend Mulan: No Older Brother, a story about transmigrating into Hua Mulan.

🌺 This list includes books of every genre. There is always one you'll enjoy. 🌺 I update my list rather slowly, because I read most books until they go premium to make sure they don't have major issues, such as toxic plot points or protagonists and supporting characters acting like idiots. Of course, everyone has different opinions 😂 🌺 Most of the books on this list are ones I've subscribed to and supported, or promising new works that I think are pretty good. 🎉 If you have books you personall
Farming Novels of All Kinds
The world moves so fast. I hope we can slow down and enjoy life in the world of farming novels.
Your Grace, Please Read a Book!
My tastes are pretty eclectic, and I read all kinds of things, though I don’t like everything about every genre. There’s bound to be something on this list that suits you. Of course, there aren’t many truly bizarre picks. (There used to be quite a few books on the list! Maybe my tastes are too unusual. I ended up watching more than a dozen novels get abandoned, one after another. That was awkward!)

This list is pretty... eclectic? Hope you'll like it. P.S. There are a few unusual picks too. (There aren't any more now.) This list is five or six years old, so it has plenty of older works and old comments. I'll delete some once it fills up. Please go easy on me.

The male protagonist of this story is a complete jerk! Hypocritical! He keeps professing his love for the female lead, but he can't control himself when he's out in public. If other women try to flirt with him and he firmly refuses, what can they do to him? He's a complete sleazy guy, completely packaged by the system. This male protagonist isn't good enough for either his ex-girlfriend or Luna.
I feel like this book has fallen apart here. As a student with limited funds, I started reading this book because of the food and travel. However, the part in Brazil is completely detached from reality and makes it impossible to relate to. The various plots after returning home are even more speechless. What happened to the promise of letting go of everything and just taking a trip?
What should have been a travelogue was turned into a melodramatic mess in the first few chapters. Removing the rich young lady wouldn't have affected the reading experience at all; I don't know why the author included that part.
The Italian version was the best; the later parts were disjointed and incomplete. The worst part was the romance—I don't want to talk about it anymore, it was too toxic.
This essay is obviously poorly written, lacking even a captivating opening. Even if the content is beautifully written, the overall mood is ruined; who could possibly read it? The ex-girlfriend is too toxic, and the "stopping on the highway" analogy—who stops on their highway like that?
The romance scenes are awkward, the author has a serious case of pretentious writing, and the novel lacks any vivid imagery.
I used to absolutely love this book, especially the section on Italy—it was so delicate and immersive. But looking at it now, the beginning and ending are definitely not up to par.
It started off okay, but from the beginning of the live stream, I got the feeling that the grass was always greener on the other side, and that I was just padding the word count. So I dropped it.
I don't care how well you write the rest, but the first 10 chapters are more toxic than thousands of chapters in other low-brow novels. The protagonist is a spineless coward, a pushover, and his taste in clothes is worse than a low-brow one. It made me cringe so much I had a stomachache from reading low-brow fashion on Kuaishou. Why would the protagonist like that?
