Books I’m Following, Recommended by a Ten-Year Bookworm
All kinds of good reads
A Picky Curator: I Usually Only Favorite What I've Read, Please Support Official Releases
(I’ve run out of books to read. Any recommendations? I’ve been looking into fanfiction lately, especially stories that stay true to the original characterization while offering their own interpretation of the source material.) I don’t care who the author is, as long as the writing is good. These are all books I’ve read or am currently following. I generally like dark stories, System stories, and, to a lesser extent, cultivation and fanfiction. My tastes are pretty broad. When recommending books,

The Heavens and the Seas of Worlds
There are three thousand paths, and each person follows a different one. There is no absolute right or wrong, strong or weak. Some attain the Dao through music, their melodies stirring the heavens and returning all things to chaos. Some attain the Dao through chess, the stars their pieces and the universe their board. Some attain the Dao through writing, their pens recording the ages and their ink marking the path of the sages. Some attain the Dao through painting, their skillful hands depicting

Must-Haves for a Reading Slump: Great Books Incoming
I started reading novels as a college freshman, and it's been four years now. I've read hundreds of books, all personally vetted. They may not be famous, but I guarantee they're good. No abandoned stories, no tormenting the protagonist, no stupid leads. Please follow, and if you like a book, give it a like. That'll help me make room to recommend new books, since I can only list 50. It's been a while since I last updated, but I'll be recommending some new books soon.
Recommendations for Great Reads to Cure a Reading Slump
An old bookworm 🐛 opening a book list for the first time. I don't recommend books that aren't good. Like 👍 like. 😂 Stockpiling books
Searching High and Low for Books
I love nothing but reading. I enjoy all kinds of books and follow no fixed rules. I recommend books that are intelligent, moving, and fresh. I do not recommend books I have not read at least a hundred chapters of, books with nothing but empty wish fulfillment, or books that merely follow trends without anything new. I do not worship gods, chase empty wish fulfillment, or follow trends. Seek books with the heart of one who climbs a tree for fish. Enter if you agree.
A Way of Writing Called Emotion
Oh, oh, oh! If you have any book recommendations, please leave a comment. I'll read them one by one, and add the good ones here. Veteran readers, please send some flowers 🎉! Every flower encourages me! 🍀🍀🍀 If you don't know how, just click my profile picture! I've been busy with school for a while, but now I have some free time to find good books for everyone. Please follow the list! I'll also tidy it up from time to time!

This list includes popular works that are currently trending or were well-known in the past, as well as promising books by established authors. The only requirement is that they make sense and don't randomly change their own settings. I don't care if the tropes are old or if there's a harem. Reading is about having a good time, and there's always an audience for these books. As long as there are no major deal-breakers, they'll be good books for some people. 😆😆😆

Thirteenth Brother, I love you. (I heard that writing like this can get you featured, I don't know if it's true 😁)
Nice
Brilliant! The author's approach to writing this book is truly excellent. It doesn't overemphasize individual strength, nor does it completely neglect the team. The opening scene with the heavenly fire was great, and the current plot development is also good. I feel the author has definitely planted some foreshadowing elements, haha! Above the Sky! Keep it up!
Are there two areas that could be improved?
1. The problem of overly strong enemies. Currently, the protagonist is facing opponents several levels above him, which he cannot handle alone, relying solely on luck. This feels unnatural after a while, significantly diminishing the sense of accomplishment even when completing the Heavenly Fire mission. The same applies to his companions; they also encounter opponents several levels higher.
Is Song Zheng planning to change his name to Song Xuanji or Song Zhixuan?
What did Song Zheng glean from Ming'e? Was it the Wheel of Life and Death or the Immortal Seal Technique?
I've read this book three times. Every time I got to the part about advancing to the level of a national protector, I couldn't continue (I skipped around after escaping the Heavenly Fire). The various realms and magical treasures were alright in the early stages, but it got progressively worse later on. It's all about solving cases all day, which is incredibly frustrating.
I read about ten chapters and couldn't continue. The author clearly has no concept of length. It's giving me a headache. A tree a thousand feet tall is about five meters in diameter, a snake eight hundred meters long is as thick as a person, a person is eighteen feet tall, and a magical phantom is eight hundred feet tall. I'm disgusted.
That's well written, but don't write like that again.
That damned guy is practically immortal as long as he has brothers and subordinates; even if they die, he can bring them back to life. His subordinate went berserk and killed and ate so many people. As an official, you didn't just kill him with your sword, you could say it was out of loyalty. But when that subordinate woke up, he wanted to divide the loot and even asked for a promotion.
Forever and ever, ten coins per floor, a settlement every thousand floors, with no upper limit.

I've read about ten chapters, and it feels so chaotic. There's just as much description of both the main and supporting characters; it's giving me a headache.
