Infinite Worlds, a Little Bit of Everything: A Bookworm's Reading List
I've vetted every book on this list. They're original, well plotted, logically consistent, and substantial. I just want to quietly recommend books. I'll add or remove titles from time to time if I think they're well written. ……
A Veteran Reader's Library
An old bookworm sharing some good books I've read and think are worth recommending...
Favorites I Can Still Remember
So I don't forget
Updated Whenever: I'll Recommend Anything That Seems Good
All kinds of genres (well, hopefully none of those domineering-boss-whatever stories). Every book here is one I've read and enjoyed, so quality guaranteed, fair to young and old... That's about it. To those of you who left recommendations, I checked out the books you suggested, but they weren't really my taste. That's all. I've now added a series of personal favorites, most of them completed.
Making Friends Through Books
Worth reading, with few annoying parts. Whether the author abandons it depends on their mood 😂
What I Like
My collection
Wuxia
Transmigration novels
Masterpieces of the Mortal World
Mostly wuxia and xianxia, with a few infinite-world novels too.
Where the Great Authors Gather
The books on this list all have the potential to become legendary, and some already are. They might be fresh new works or novels running to hundreds of thousands or even millions of words, but any of them could become a classic! Every single one is a masterpiece!
This Humble Daoist, Xiao Qiqi, Greets Fellow Cultivators
Bored of cultivation novels, o3o. How about following me? I'm sensitive, and that's scary. My wish is for “world peace.” This is my main book list (づ。◕ ౩ ◕。)づ I could easily live off my looks, but I'd rather rely on my ⊙∀⊙! talent. That's me! Hahaha 😄😄😄 The list owner is hopelessly obsessed with herself. She's been sent to the Chaoyang People's Mental Hospital in Beijing. Please wait until the list owner is discharged if you need anything. 🌞 🚥 🏩💒⛪🏪🏫🏥🏦🏣🎄 🏃 🚒🚓🚕🚗🚙🚚 🚶 🚲 💃 🎡⚽🎾🏄🏊🎿⛳⛺ Let “world peace”

My Personal Collection, Shared with You
Books from my personal bookshelf. Feel free to take a look. I've been reading for over ten years. I started out liking urban supernatural novels, then moved on to urban rebirth stories, and lately I've been more into historical novels. If you like the list, give it a thumbs-up! 😄 Damn, I somehow got subscribed to two books for no reason (Junzhu Changning and Ghostly Business: Meng Po's Bar), and my password wasn't even changed! What the hell is going on?! Qidian's backend must've swallowed them
Ten Thousand Immortals Pay Homage
Only the good stuff
These Are All Books I Love. If You Like Them, Please Give Them a Like or a Flower!
All great books, well worth reading.
Handpicked with Care: There's Something Here for You
I've gone through these books again and again to narrow them down. I've had my share of reading slumps, too. I hope this list can help anyone in a slump find something they like. If you're just passing by and something catches your eye, give it a try. If not, feel free to browse.
[Featured New Releases] New Book Recommendations! Please Follow My List, Meow O⊙ω⊙o
Want my reading lists? Go find them! I've put them all here! I'm going to be the king of reading lists! (/ω\) Ahem →_→ Back to the point. These are all books I quite like. Some aren't very well written, but the content is good, so they're worth reading when you're running out of books. I stick to a no-tragic-endings-for-the-protagonist rule, unless the novel is exceptionally good. *^_^* I'll add books from any genre as long as they're good (╯3╰)!
Wow, Cultivation Fantasy!
Xianxia
Stars and Moon Leave No Trace
Adding some books I like
All Pretty Good Books, Worth a Read
Basically a big mixed bag, with a bit of everything.
A Decade of Reading: Only Recommending Good Reads, Guaranteed. (New Series Included)
From primordial mythology and xianxia to fantasy and urban stories, this list has it all. In short, they’re good and a blast to read. I update the list from time to time. Books that have been abandoned or gone off the rails will be removed right away. Every book comes with a recommendation. Everyone is welcome to follow.
Accomplished
I don't like brainless, cookie-cutter novels. I like books that are both satisfying and engaging, and leave me feeling refreshed after reading. I don't care whether the author is a big name; fame means nothing. I don't look back fondly on the Blood Red novels I read when I was young. Quality is all that matters. These days, I lean toward dark, clever stories. The books here generally fall into two categories: clever stories and feel-good wish fulfillment, though they also cover many other fields

Do you think you've done right by the people who subscribed to your service?
Fans of the prehistoric era have been eagerly awaiting a good prehistoric novel, but unfortunately, none have yet appeared.
Hongyun's abdication was impossible in itself. Either it was ordained by Heaven, or he knew Zhunti and Jieyin beforehand. How could he possibly give up his position without any apparent reason, especially with Zhen Yuanzi holding him back?
Zhen Yuanzi, you might think he was something special? Actually, he was just a gardener who looked after the ginseng fruit trees. The servants called him Zhenyuanzi, meaning the one who guarded the garden. Later, the master family suffered a misfortune and moved away, leaving him behind to look after the house. He felt his original name was inappropriate, so he changed it to Zhen Yuanzi. (From the *Annals of Zhen Yuanzi*)
Hongyun wasn't bullied because he was honest. The primordial world operates on cause and effect. Hongyun had two karmic debts leading to sainthood and one leading to quasi-sainthood. If he didn't die, who would? With these karmic debts, it's difficult for him to progress. How could he repay the debts of two sainthoods? Only with the title of saint!
This book is alright. As for some friends who think the stories like Nuwa giving birth to the Sheji Map halfway through her life, or Hongyun giving birth to a gourd halfway through… are unscientific? …Actually, these aren't problems. After all, this isn't our prehistoric world; it's someone else's. After all, someone did time travel, causing some minor incidents, which is acceptable.
My Qidian coins have been mysteriously decreasing these past two days, and changing my password hasn't helped. What should I do?
Dear author, please give me 100 points as encouragement!
It's not good since the appearance of Cangtian.
Could the author please save Kong Xuan, who was captured by Jieyin, during the Investiture of the Gods? I quite like the Jie Sect. Then, the eastward transmission of Buddhism was cut off. After Qin Shi Huang unified the country, he changed the name to Huaxia, burned books (only Confucian books), buried scholars alive, performed the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai to worship Heaven and inform Nuwa…
