Favorites: Feel-Good, Relaxed, Low-Stakes Reads Without Harem or Angst

Just like the list's name says, life is too busy, so here's a chance to unwind.

Novels Worth Reading

I’ve paid for every book here, so you can be sure they’re at least solid reads, with reliable updates. My tastes are pretty eclectic: xuanhuan, infinite-flow, crossover anime, anime-inspired, sci-fi, food, System, wuxia, xianxia, post-apocalyptic, gaming, otherworldly, lord-building, and more.

Time Travel, Fake Invincibility, Feel-Good Stories, Light and Fun, Mid-Level Protagonists

I'm somewhere between a newbie and a veteran reader. I like lighthearted, fun novels, and protagonists who put themselves first and are a little selfish. I can't stand saintly do-gooders or cold-blooded, utterly inhuman protagonists.

A Whole Bunch of Whatever

Umm, Following Updates

For All Time ✔ Book Nook: Mainly Paid Subscription Books

Clear-minded protagonists with the bearing of the strong, clear goals, and well-organized actions. No saintly do-gooders, no idiots, and no groveling at women's feet. Each book has something worthwhile. So far, I've only recommended published books I've subscribed to. I'll make a separate list for unpublished promising new novels when I have time.

Autumn's Pavilion

① Eclectic tastes: all kinds of books catch my interest. ② I collect both promising new books and completed ones. ③ A book needs to meet at least two of these criteria to make the list: good writing, a great premise, a strong plot, and vivid characters. ④ I like stories that subvert conventions and formulas. ⑤ I’ll include a satisfying power fantasy or an overpowered-protagonist story if it meets either of those standards. ⑥ No brainless or nonsensical harem stories, and no highly toxic plot poi

A Treat for Readers in a Slump: A Veteran Bookworm’s List

I've been reading for thirteen years, and my tastes have become pretty selective. These are books that don't seem like poison to me and that I personally think are decent. Give them a try. I read a lot of genres: fantasy, xianxia, urban fiction, sci-fi, and supernatural stories. Check out my recommendations!

New and Promising Reads: Urban, Transmigration, and Sci-Fi

These are urban slice-of-life, supernatural, technology, or transmigration novels. I'm not adding older books to the list, even though many are classics. Everyone has probably heard of or read those legendary titles, like Card Apprentice, Super Modeler, The Legend of the Mecha Master, and The Fake Hero. These days I focus on interesting new books. I rarely look for books through other lists; I find the ones I like and follow them myself. I may not write a review for every book, but if one catche

My tastes change a lot, so this list is a random mix of good books from all kinds of genres. It includes both ongoing and completed works. I personally vet every book before recommending it. Let's all do our part to prevent authors from abandoning their stories!
