Great Book Recommendations, Fewer Reading Slumps
Books with lots of subscribers: urban, light novels, and historical fiction~ A step above newbies, but not quite a veteran reader~ These are my personal opinions, so please don't take offense~ My ratings are only: Solid pick (has something going for it) Must-read (really good) I'm out of things to read. I've dropped so many books halfway through~
New-Release Fanatic (Also Recommending Older Books; Please Favorite and Follow~)
As long as I live, I'll keep testing books. As long as Qidian stays open, I'll keep updating this list. I haven't been reading much lately, and I'm pretty picky. My reviews may be slow too, ✍🏻️, but every book I recommend is still carefully chosen. Sometimes, when people look for something to read, they notice something strange: everyone's out of books, yet they still ask each other for recommendations. Isn't this way of huddling together for warmth kind of fun~ I think it's the words that br

A Reasonable Reader's Picks: The Logic Should Mostly Hold Up, with a Bit of Everything
I've been an avid reader for almost ten years, so my tastes are pretty varied. I recommend books for readers who want something beyond simplistic fiction: fewer tired tropes, fewer saintly characters, and fewer mindless face-slapping scenes. I also like books with relatable protagonists. More precisely, these characters act in ways that feel human. They can be good or bad, but their choices have to make sense. P.S. Please save and like the list so I can see what you enjoy. The list has reached
Best Picks in Showbiz and Period Fiction (Updated 2026-10-28)
A list of entertainment novels I'm following. If you like this genre, give them a try. I often check the rankings. This genre is relatively easy for new authors to write, but competition is fierce too. I update regularly, so keep an eye on changes to the list's title.
Dazzling New Books! May Our Great Motherland Prosper and Flourish

Let's enjoy fine writing together and discuss our differences. If you know a good book, leave a comment. I'll read every suggestion and add the ones I like to my shelves. Final

Every Book Is a Gem!
Genre doesn't matter, and neither does whether the author is famous. What matters is whether it's good and well written. I only recommend quality books, across all kinds of genres. Reading different kinds of books feels like experiencing different lives. You can't go wrong by saving this list! It'll let you roam across the Six Realms: gods, demons, immortals, monsters, ghosts, and humans.

A Little Bookshop with Distinctive Taste
A list of books that suit my personal tastes, including some I dropped for various reasons along the way. I've been reading on Qidian for years, first for free and then as a paying reader. I honestly don't think a book's quality can be judged by its performance. Just look at the poorly written filler cluttering the charts. Finding a novel I can actually stick with is pretty hard. I hope this very personal list can be of some help to anyone struggling to find something to read. P.S. I like wuxia

Handma's Reading List
Please follow and save this list! ... Many of these books are completed, because waiting for updates is painful. Qidian books are usually great early on, then tend to go off the rails later. Our motto: don’t waste your money! (Though I can’t help it either.) ... The biggest problem with mainstream genre fiction is that it can’t write romance. I haven’t seen a book on Qidian that gives its heroine real depth. Could Qidian start a writing workshop? Have the site’s editors teach the classes: theory

My thoughts after watching "1983 and Bai Bai"
It was completed in 1983, and I have many feelings about it. There aren't many girls driving this fast anymore; this author of "Spirit Herb" is exceptional and must be protected. The girl is gentle, and the story's conflicts, compared to other rebirth novels, aren't as intense as those life-or-death struggles; it's more of a slice-of-life story. It's easy and enjoyable to read in your spare time.

Xu Fei~ Zhang Li~ Xiao Xu Come on, let's die together!!!!!!!!!
Brother, I've tried my best, but I can only cast 18 monthly votes.
You scumbag Xu, if you don't control yourself, given your physical condition, this is the only outcome you'll face. 🤭
Aunt Bai's previous books all featured a single female protagonist; is this book going to be suggestive?
Xiaoxu Building
I'll answer some readers' questions about not understanding the main storyline (please don't criticize if I'm wrong, experts).
This book is about a reincarnation in the 1980s. Currently, there are two girls and some obvious subplots involving the male protagonist. The main plot (my guess is *doge*) seems to be Xu's plan to promote the development of China's entertainment industry. Another main plot is related to the development of the era.
Xuli is the best, scumbag get out!
Last night I dreamt I was reborn. I became Xu Fei's son, and my two mothers spoil me rotten! 💔💔💔
