Reading List No. 3: Urban Fiction
This is the third one... I just saw that there's another categorized book-list event, and since I can make an urban fiction category, I went ahead and created one. Urban fiction has the most quality picks, after all. [Here are my other three lists: Main list: long reviews focused on new sprouts, with over 20,000 followers and 35,000 without comments. You're welcome to follow! Fantasy list: mainly ongoing fantasy stories Sci-fi list: "Book List No. 4: Sci-Fi" Anime-related list: "Book List N
A Veteran Reader's Personal Reading List
I’d like to share some books I’ve read and am currently reading. These aren’t beginner-level stories; they have smart characters. I’ve been reading web novels for many years, from pirated copies to official editions, so I suppose you could call me a veteran reader. The first web novel I read was "Immortal Cauldron". I happened upon it while browsing a rental bookstore. As I slowly read the story, the protagonist Zhang Meng’s experiences opened a door to another world for me, a world full of fant

My Personal Picks: The Best of the Best, Half of Them Obscure and Niche
A little of everything, from niche and obscure to classics. I started reading Water Margin: The Sequel in third grade, and now I've been reading for a full 33 years. I've read countless novels. There are plenty of good books I can't think of right now, as well as books I remember being decent but have forgotten, so I'll add them as they come back to me. Basically, three stars means they're worth a read; don't expect any five-star ratings. Here are some I'm following lately.
Dreams of a Fleeting Life
These are mostly books whose stories I personally think are great, whether I’m currently following them or have already read them. No harems or wish-fulfillment, and nothing brainless or dumbed down. To me, every novel is a grand dream in this fleeting life. Isn’t it more fun when the dream is beautiful and exciting?
My Reading List
Books I’ve finished on Qidian. This list only includes completed works, not ongoing or abandoned ones. Ratings are out of 100 and reflect my personal opinion only. For reference.
A Hodgepodge of Good Books: Personal Favorites
No fixed genre, and my tastes are hard to pin down. Whether it’s historical or urban fiction, fantasy or science fiction, as long as it isn’t brainless or blindly following the crowd, I’ll add it to the list and share it with people who have similar interests, instincts, or tastes. You deserve to read these! Whether you like them or want to tear them apart is up to you. Fellow readers are welcome to leave reviews! (I’ll periodically remove books whose authors have abandoned them or whose pages h

I only recommend books I genuinely love.
🌹Those Treasured Books!🌹
I have been reading and writing on Qidian for sixteen years. Looking through my bookshelf, I found many books that left a deep impression, so I am using this list to select some classics and share them with everyone. Of course, I will also add some new books I have read recently. Updates whenever necessary....
My Historical Speculation Recommendations
I select historical fiction based on how plausible it is. The works included mainly reflect my personal taste. Taking into account differences in era and genre, as well as when each book was written, I’ve tried to put together a collection of decent historical transmigration novels. Give them a try if you’re interested, and feel free to recommend any excellent historical transmigration novels you know.
Books Amid Layers of Mist and Rain
I roll up the pearl curtain and hook it on the jade clasp; as before, spring's sorrow locks the many-storied tower. Who owns the blossoms falling in the wind? My thoughts drift on and on. The bluebird brings no message from beyond the clouds; lilacs only knot themselves in vain, like sorrow in the rain. I look back: the green waves of the Three Chu regions flow beneath the evening sky, stretching to the horizon.
After More Than Ten Years of Reading, Here Are My Recommendations for Truly Great, Overlooked Books
I've been reading for over ten years and have carefully read thousands of novels. I only recommend high-quality books that have been overlooked. I've read every book I recommend carefully and genuinely think it's good. I can't stand formulaic, amateurish writing, clumsy prose, pretentious literary styles, or stories that torture the protagonist. None of that for me. Every book on this list is a clean read that suits my taste. Hope you enjoy them~ Maybe you'll find like-minded readers too~ Haha.
Private Library
Good books are hard to find. This list reflects my personal tastes, so please don't mind that... I generally avoid harems. I test the waters first, and update irregularly. O_o Please follow me ^_^ I'd love some recommendations o_O P.S. I'm no good at writing recommendation blurbs, so don't sweat the little things ヽ(≧Д≦)ノ (just kidding)
☆Japanese Entertainment☆ The Dazzling Bubble of Japan's Entertainment Era
Hello, readers! Today I'm introducing Japanese entertainment-industry novels. It's a pretty niche genre, but there are still some really good ones. This list features four completed novels and two that are still ongoing. If you think the list is worthwhile, please like and favorite it. Without further ado, let's get to the recommendations.
Japanese Entertainment: Neon City Lights and the Bubble-Era Showbiz Scene

It often comes up on variety shows in Korea and Japan. “Elements of Japanese Entertainment” The entertainment industry broadly refers to the people who work in the performing arts and the environment surrounding them.

A Few Books I’ve Been Following
Updated again, and removed a few books I stopped reading or am letting build up. There are so few readable books lately. It's a little depressing. I'm in a reading slump. Any recommendations? I'm getting older, and I like stories with sound logic and attention to detail.
Miao’s Bookshelf
My bookshelf has some of the books I've been reading lately. I keep up with some, while others I just dip into now and then. I'm not into anime fanfiction and the like, so you generally won't find that sort of thing on my lists. If you do, it's definitely top-notch. P.S. 1. To everyone recommending new authors' early works, I'll do my best to check them out. Thanks! 2. If you're recommending a book, please make sure the author has staying power first. Thanks! These days, people keep starting new

Wow, textbook-level emotional description! 👍 Both Ayako's and her sister's emotional storylines are very delicate. Ayako's writing is full of Japanese-style love, resolute and sorrowful, giving people a strange chill; her sister's is more about warmth and unwavering devotion. As a fan of Izumi-neechan, I couldn't help but have tears in my eyes when I finished reading...
BGM Building Light music combined with a gentle breeze, the beautiful and elegant background music can help you understand the story of the characters in the book and evoke that feeling. 1. Ngau hung 2. Encounter 3. "Only My Railgun" 4. *Longing Across Time* 5. STYX HELIX 6. Castle in the Sky 7. Summer 8. Rain PS1: Why didn't the author add background music to the scenes? There's so little music on the book list. PS2: Can anyone recognize where all the music above comes from?
If you're not writing about harems in Japanese entertainment, what's the point?
If you're going to write about Japanese entertainment without a harem theme, what's the point?! 😍
How many people came for my sister? +1
7 Points for Japanese entertainment, 3 points for the single female lead, and the remaining 90 points for Izumi-neechan 🙂
Let's make up for the missed full subscriptions.
Honestly, I really enjoy reading Japanese entertainment novels. The first one I read was "The Unification of Japanese Entertainment by Pure-Blooded Five-Worths." However, there aren't many writers in this genre, which might be related to the narrower audience affecting its success. With fewer writers, high-quality works are even rarer. In my opinion, this novel is an absolute gem.
I have a question: Is Izumi Sakai really that popular?
Although I don't know much about Japanese entertainment, the novel is very good. The writing is very calm and has a feeling of the Japanese entertainment industry's artistic era. I added it to my bookshelf a while ago, but only read it today because of the title, and finished it right away. I really liked it, and I'll give the author all the monthly votes and recommendations.
Reading this book backwards from "One Flew Over the Bubbles," I won't go into detail about the other plot points, but the scene where the male protagonist breaks up with Yukie Nakama was written so awfully that it lowered the reading experience to rock bottom. In contrast, the emotional handling in "One Flew Over the Bubbles" so far is far better than this book; I personally think the author must have reflected on the past and made adjustments!
Dear author, your writing on the career storyline in "Leap Forward: The Bubble Era" is honestly top-tier in the entertainment fiction genre. It's highly professional, and the business strategy is a significant improvement over this book. However, the romance is honestly not as good as this one. There's just too much detail about the flirting between the main characters.
