A handpicked collection of imaginative books. I'm not very good at writing recommendations, so I usually just give you the keywords. Please follow the list!

A Veteran Reader's Bookshelf
I've been an avid reader for over ten years. My tastes have changed from the wuxia novels I started with to today's web novels. I can't get into female-oriented fiction, but I can read just about any other genre, as long as it's well written. After all that rambling, I've finally passed fifty characters.
I've Read Every One Myself. Writing Comes First, Then the Story!
I read every book word by word, and I lean toward urban fiction. I usually only add books with at least 500,000 characters.

I Just Want to Quietly Recommend Books

City Life, Entrepreneurship, and Growth
Urban novels that I personally think are excellent. I strongly recommend them to anyone who enjoys the urban genre! Also, The Great Rancher is another one I highly recommend, though for some reason I can't recommend it here. I've finished reading nearly all of the completed novels below from beginning to end. I'm still following the ongoing ones and keeping up with them. Every day, I look forward to the authors adding more chapters.
Books with a Bit of Substance
Most of the books on this list are straightforward reads, without overpowering golden fingers or harems. They're simply books I've read and enjoyed.

If You Find a Good Book, Share It! Sharing Makes Me Happy!
Just like the list title says, these books are for relaxing and passing the time. If you prefer serious stories, please look elsewhere. Also, I don't recommend books by big-name authors. They don't need one more recommendation from me, so if you want to read their work, please look for it yourself. Thanks. I'll update from time to time, so follow the list.

The author's descriptions of daily life are decent, but the prices are set too high. For example, when the protagonist first arrives at Fengtian Restaurant, a small meal for seven people costs 70 yuan. That's impossible. In 1992, seven people could drink themselves to death at such a small restaurant for 20 yuan. My dad's salary as a staff member was only 120 yuan back then.
It's a slow-burning book, very well written, but the sympathy for Qin Aihua after her crime in the middle felt unnecessary. The portrayal of the veteran as incredibly capable and later filled with remorse is problematic. If he were truly capable, would he have killed his comrades to steal a gun?
I think more and more people will read these kinds of simple, down-to-earth books in the future, because hardcore bookworms really can't get into most novels these days. (11-Year bookworm report.) Keep it up, author!
Author, are you planning to write this for your fellow villagers? It's all in dialect... It's giving me the headache...
After reading a thousand chapters, I'm starting to understand why the author, despite his abilities, never seems to achieve anything significant. Like the descriptions in the book, he's haphazard and doesn't focus on anything important. Even after investing hundreds of millions, he's still preoccupied with opening cake shops, supermarkets, and shopping malls, and he's always busy with endless…
I haven't finished this book yet, but I feel the portrayal of the protagonist's parents spoiling his younger brother a bit too much—they're still carrying him even though he's in middle school (Chapter 676). Also, the earlier description of him sleeping with his parents when he first arrived in Longcheng seems unlikely. However, I still recommend that those who have read this book also read the author's autobiography, *Old Tales of Maple City*, which is worth a read.
Right now, I'm just looking at new books and the free books every two days. If I could travel back in time to 2017 and live to see the author publish this book again, I would definitely invest in making it into a film or television series. I wonder if I'll actually make that promise tonight?
His family was dirt poor, his father was sick, and he had a younger brother still in school! Even if the protagonist started by earning a thousand, how much could he possibly save in two years without spending a single penny? He came to the city and within a few days had thrown away nearly ten thousand, and it was all on useless things.
I hope the author keeps writing and doesn't leave the story unfinished. This is currently the only book on Qidian that I don't skip chapters in my subscriptions. I really love this kind of book. It's heartwarming.
In the 1990s, students in county primary schools had to attend kindergarten at the school before they could enter first grade. This rule changed later when the number of children increased. The policies back then were really powerful.
