Novels That Leave You Happy and Energized
A curated selection of all kinds of good books. My standards: they should leave you feeling satisfied, without too much filler, and the protagonist shouldn't be a robot, a heartless person, or an idiot. They should have both intelligence and emotional awareness. They can have ambitions, but shouldn't be ruthless plunderers. The plot should be compelling, not just the same thing repeated over and over. Books that meet these standards are worth keeping, in my opinion, and I'm willing to pay to rea

Mostly Xianxia, Recommending Anything That's Good
Mainly xianxia novels. When I find a good book, I add it and share it with everyone. They're usually satisfying reads with few major flaws... I don't sort my reading by genre. If it's good, I recommend it. I've read at least 100 chapters of every book here and only recommend the ones I think are worth reading...
Reading in Peace
I was delighted when I happened to find out I could create a book list. Every book suits a certain kind of reader. I don’t need mindless stories or harems. Finding a book that feels like mine in this sea of stories lets me escape into another world anytime, anywhere, like enjoying a warm cup of afternoon tea. Rated out of three stars: three stars means a classic, one star means decent, and two stars falls in between. I’ll slowly add new books. Why slowly? I’m picky about what I like, or, as you’

Sign-in Post for the Undisputed Ming Dynasty:
Dear readers, let the author see how many true fans have come to check in! How about a quick check-in?
To be honest, I have a good impression of Emperor Chongzhen. After all, they were both incompetent ordinary people. At least Chongzhen ultimately achieved the ideal of "the emperor guarding the country's gates and the monarch dying for the state," something I personally believe I could not do.
Author's Note: Could you bring your fans to lend a hand? The history field is full of talented people; you could reach even greater heights! The history community is promoting and supporting your work immediately! 🤝🌹👍
In the historical fiction genre, this book should be considered top-tier. However, it's regrettable that the protagonist remains stuck in the sinking ship of the late Ming Dynasty. It's important to understand that the protagonist has no real attachment to the Ming Dynasty; he simply doesn't want the Manchus to invade.
The more I write, the more pathetic it becomes. The Ming Dynasty is clearly sinking, yet they rush aboard and wallow in the cesspool with the crew, making themselves unclean. They should have carved out a piece of land, developed their own economy and technology, and then collected the timber and recycled it after the Ming Dynasty had completely sunk.
A young, inexperienced protagonist, relying on his protagonist halo, constantly argues and criticizes others. Looking back, he hasn't accomplished anything. After reading over two hundred chapters, it's completely consumed by intrigue and backstabbing; he's either being criticized or criticizing others. He hasn't done a single practical thing!
The plot has gotten quite interesting so far, but there aren't many updates. Keep it up!
A few random thoughts on the Tianqi and Chongzhen Emperors
Haha~ Emperor Tianqi also had a fiery temper. He once issued three edicts in a row, the contents of which were very simple and brutal: "Go to hell! If you all continue to spout nonsense, I will not be polite. I keep my word and will never break it. Try me if you don't believe me!" (If anyone dares to bully me because I am young, or acts out of personal interest, I will never tolerate it!
The Ming Dynasty was rotten to the core and should have been abandoned outright. I don't know what the author was thinking, actually attempting reforms on that foundation. There was no basis for it. It's better to start from scratch than to be crude. The correct plot is: the Qing army enters Beijing.
I just want to ask, how did a protagonist who talks like that survive two episodes? Sometimes the author says he's wise, but would a wise person talk like that? He sounds like a brute. He should be strategizing instead of just arguing with his superiors, especially those he doesn't get along with.
