A List of Amazing Books
I've personally given every book on this list a try! I've been reading web novels for years and am a true veteran. I recommend Wulin Banxia Zhuan by Wenchao Gong and Wangu Xianqiong by Guan Qi.
Pure Thrills
When I first started reading, I loved fantasy and epic worlds. Later I got into urban stories and wild, imaginative plots, then historical fiction. Now I'm back to fast-paced wish-fulfillment stories. I've been reading for ten years: if the pacing is slow, I won't read it; if it's too short, I won't read it either.

I mostly enjoy historical fiction, but the other genres I read tend to be lighthearted and funny.

The list owner has realized they're basically a couch potato. I haven't touched this list in four or five months. The friends who started it with me now have three or four thousand followers, while I've dropped to just over 400. (Sob.) I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to manage the list. I'm checking in today to recommend a few promising new novels. These are books I'm reading now or have already read. Please give them a follow. I never recommend trash, and I leave out anything I

For a Reading Slump, Have Some Dog Food: No Masterpieces Here
Don't assume I'm recommending books to make a deal just because I'm an author. I'm a web-novel fan first and foremost. I recommend books in good faith, and my reviews are straightforward, not flashy like those on other lists. I know I'm here to help readers suffering through a reading slump find something to enjoy, not to sell anything. As for why I don't update the list very often, it's because good books are hard to find! That's still better than recommending random stuff, even if my tastes

Great Books and Masterpieces
I'll keep sharing the great and incredible books I've read. Follow if you like them. There are books for both male and female readers, so there's bound to be one for you. P.S. There are also some good books that were abandoned before completion, so I won't recommend them individually. If you're out of books to read, go take a look. The authors dig the holes, and I'll bury the bodies, haha: “Oh No, Grandma Transmigrated,” “The Otherworld's Show-Off,” and “The Apocalypse Livestream.”

Ancient generals knelt before their wives. What a wonderful understanding of marital relationship! Is this love? Putting everything else aside, in this era of gender equality, surely no one would actually do something wrong outside the home and come home to kneel before their wife for a scolding? Really? Really? Really? Would anyone actually consider this a manifestation of true love?
A very good novel, especially the protagonist... My God... I only have one feeling: shameless!
What kind of rubbish is this...? And it's set in the Qin Dynasty, a dynasty with strict laws! If the protagonist were running around like that, he'd be chopped down eight hundred times over. It's absolutely toxic! 😰😰😰😰😰
This story is suitable for young people aged 15 to 20 who lack life experience; the content is completely illogical! It's even more hollow than a typical beginner's novel! I forced myself to read a dozen chapters, but gave up!
I used to just walk away from books where the protagonist was unintelligent, but not anymore. Now I add them to my bookshelf, move them to the "low IQ" category, and leave a comment.
A fictionalized account is not a fabrication, and an adaptation is not a random rewriting. Why is it that in a feudal slave society, people from the lower classes, such as thugs, criminals, and servants, could successfully petition the emperor to accuse high-ranking officials (the protagonist) as long as they felt there was something to gain? And why could ordinary people gather in the capital to cause trouble and besiege officials and ministers whenever they felt dissatisfied?
The protagonist, while establishing the imperial examination system in the Qin Dynasty, first needs to promote this modern education system there. Otherwise, if the aristocratic families are ruined and the education system isn't established, it will produce a group of useless Confucian scholars like those in the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties—incompetent in politics, economics, governance, and…
The text is filled with the author's misunderstanding of history and lack of knowledge. Did putting materials into the alchemy furnace accidentally create gunpowder that exploded? The reaction should have started when saltpeter was added; the saltpeter decomposes, aids combustion, and a flame would briefly appear before extinguishing. Even the pardon plaque isn't made of gold.
The more I read, the more outrageous it becomes. Did some foreign friends read a few fake history books and write this book?
After reading eight chapters, I feel the author wanted to write something lighthearted and humorous. But I just can't get into it 😭😭. Why not create an alternate history? Reading the novel makes me think of the Qin Dynasty, forcing me to make comparisons, and there are tons of plot points that defy common sense.
