These are all great books, with strong writing or compelling plots. They each have their own style and strengths. If you think we have similar tastes, feel free to save this list. It's enough if a character strikes you as especially interesting, or a scene makes you smile, or you simply feel a little more relaxed after reading. The authors are all basically reliable and conscientious. P.S. Follow me so you don't lose your way; save the list and everyone wins!

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.

A History Buff's Book Nook: The Song Dynasty

The history of the Song Dynasty is fascinating. It was one of the few legitimate dynasties to last for several hundred years, yet it never achieved true unification before its fall. Its civil officials and generals were all remarkably capable, but it still couldn't shake its reputation as a weak dynasty, losing every battle.
