Smart Male Leads, No Heroine or Just One
This reading list reflects only my personal tastes... I really dislike it when a novel has a female lead who inexplicably falls for the male lead... It just makes me laugh. So I tend to prefer male leads who are decisive, coldhearted, ruthless, and consummate egoists. I only add the occasional book with a genuinely well-written romance, and I don't mind books where the female lead barely matters. Some people might think certain books on my list are too cold-blooded, but my previous list was lit
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,
Personal Taste

Little Boys and Teenage Protagonists (Personal Reading List)
Youth is a time of bright futures and boundless possibilities. This list is extremely subjective and might as well be my personal reading list. I may not be quite right in the head, so please don't hate on me if it's not to your taste. (It'd be even better if you didn't randomly downvote the books. Thanks.) Books like these are hard to find. If you have any recommendations, please leave them in the comments~ By the way, I may still be reading some of these. Updates will be slow.
A Satisfying Read With Ruthless Heroes, No Goody-Two-Shoes, and No Harem
Life is hard enough already, so reading should be fun. That's why I like feel-good stories, and this list collects books with decisive protagonists who aren't doormats. When it comes to romance, I really hate womanizer plots. I mostly prefer stories with one female lead or no female lead at all.

Educational and Entertaining Novels That Teach You Something
Some novels carry their authors’ ideas, whether or not that was the author’s intention. I’ve genuinely learned lessons about life from them, and I also had a great time reading them. Online fiction has wisdom about how to live, too. It isn’t all disposable entertainment.

I've read many chapters of this book, and I thoroughly enjoy it. The adherence to imperial laws and decisive ruthlessness are far superior to those drawn-out, self-pitying, sanctimonious romance novels.
The age is a major flaw; even writing 16 would be better than 11! How could an 11-year-old, without any special abilities, possibly complete training that even adults couldn't?
The biggest flaw isn't the darkness or the humanity; indeed, as the author himself said, it's a completely self-indulgent novel. He enjoyed writing about cheat codes before, so he wrote a lot about cheat codes; later, he enjoyed writing about battles, so he wrote about face-slapping wars. The fatal flaw is that he basically threw away the cheat codes altogether.
I'm speechless. A fake Taoist priest in the comments section came to argue. Does a dark fantasy novel really need to distinguish between good and evil? Are you a reincarnated troll? This is the first time I've encountered someone coming to the comments section to argue. I've already given the author my 10,000 yuan reward for the book's release.
This book has some major flaws. Take Xia, for example. If it were a normal person, they would have torn him to pieces long ago. But the protagonist not only didn't punish him, he even gave him an important position. What kind of behavior is that? To imprison someone who betrayed him for this? Is the protagonist out of his mind? I just don't understand. And what's with this disgusting, tedious love story? What the hell is that?
The protagonist doesn't feel like a time traveler at all; he's more like a native trying to survive. You might say that killing to survive is normal, but then he kills Carlo's brother, who saved his life, and then kills Carlo and the shopkeeper. You can understand that; just think of the protagonist as a selfish person. Then you see Carly, who saved him twice, being killed. You might say that's something a normal person would do.
This book is a typical novel set within an officialdom-centric system. It is clear that the author has a high level of historical knowledge, and the handling of the system effectively showcases the various flaws of an upgraded version of a medieval European empire. However, logically, there are many inconsistencies. The protagonist's age and the military plot holes are both incredibly absurd.
This is a military-themed story disguised as a magic-based genre, but it's written in a very low-level style. The author should probably go study some military theory...
A poor imitation of Tanya the Evil.
The synopsis is very misleading. After reading the synopsis, I thought it was a thrilling novel about killing and gaining superpowers, but it turned out to be a military war novel full of intrigue and backstabbing. Moreover, the war plan is very childish, and the protagonist is the only smart person.
