Going Against the Grain in 1997

Reading Drought Relief Station

[Pinned] My reviews are too vague or focus too much on the early parts of a book, and they’re not very well written! If you’d like me to revise a review, leave a comment. I really will replace or edit it if needed, no empty flattery! I’ve been reading web novels for 16 years, and I’m so tired of mindless garbage. Books that are already popular don’t need me to recommend them. I mostly recommend niche stories, and hope they won’t be overlooked! My main interests are historical and urban fiction,

Urban Master Detectives

If you don’t read novels for enjoyment, you might as well read a textbook! Most books on this list are urban feel-good fiction!

Personal Reading List

I've been reading for 15 years. I only keep track of books I can actually stick with.

Entertainment for Entertainment's Sake, Just Looking for Something Readable

The entertainment novels are mainly about Chinese and Hong Kong showbiz. The urban novels are mainly about being reborn.

Hidden Gems

They're all books I like.

Made to Order

New books worth a read. Enter with caution! Everything on this list was added while it was still new. I’m too lazy to remove the ones that were later abandoned by their authors. I’m against formulaic stories and only recommend interesting new books.

Foraging for Good Reads in a Sea of Books, Send Flowers 🌸

These are all books I'm currently following. After so many years of reading, I think this list has something for almost everyone: food, urban life, pets, fantasy, fanfiction, anime, and female-oriented novels. Feel free to recommend good stories too. Being out of books is a daily struggle ╯﹏╰ If you like food stories, anime, or pets, scroll down and have a look. I'm always digging for good reads and will add new books from time to time (≧㉨≦) Some are ready to binge, and some are new. I've fi

Literary Life in a Big City and Small Communities

Mostly showbiz stories, with a preference for light, slow-burn reads. I only recommend books I’ve read or am currently reading

A Conscientious Reading List

These are books I like, and I've read every one of them! Heartfelt recommendations, guaranteed!

The Best Writers Are Writing Historical Fiction and Rebirth Stories

In urban fiction, being reborn is an overused premise, but there are still plenty of good authors writing it. Some have done well, others less so. Even when they're all writing about the internet, each author has a different perspective. It's not all mindless investing that turns the protagonist into a billionaire. Managing money and people is far more complicated than an ordinary job. I'm not expecting technical perfection, just hoping the story doesn't read like a wish-fulfillment fantasy.

Romance Between the Lines

I love wandering through the sea of books and discovering great reads.

Books I personally like and have been following. If you like them too, give this a heart ❤❤❤❤

Man Yan's Picks

I don’t like following stories day by day, so I won’t recommend little seedlings 🍀. I recommend only books that have grown into hefty reads, and completed masterpieces that have grown into towering trees 🌴🌴. The books on this list are only a tiny, tiny fraction of what I’ve read! 👣 But every single one is a gem 👍. I read all sorts of things 🌺 and don’t stick to any particular genre 💐, so this list has a bit of everything. I haven’t sorted them, but seasoned readers can take a quick look and see

I'm not very good at writing reviews. These are all books I personally consider worth reading. If the list gets full, I'll remove abandoned books or ones that gradually become boring and padded.
