✨The Joyful Reading List of a Sharp-Tongued Veteran Reader✨ Come Take a Look (´△`)♪
>>Please follow<< A collection of novels I’ve been following over time, in all kinds of genres. I have a high tolerance for bad writing, but I can also be pretty sharp-tongued. The scathing reviews at the end are highly subjective and mostly point out flaws that don’t outweigh a book’s strengths. I’ll gripe when I feel like it, but don’t take it too seriously. Pay more attention to the ratings. Updates are slow because of work. >>About the harsh reviews<< Adding a harsh review gets you mindles
New Buds, Wild Ideas, Thrills, Tight Logic, and Cool-Headed Protagonists
Mostly new books by established authors, so quality is assured. I’ve been reading for over a decade and have very particular tastes. To me, a good book must first and foremost make sense, then it needs an unusual premise and a smooth flow of satisfying moments. I’ve read at least 900 books, if not a thousand. I know the big-name and lesser-known authors, and every genre, inside out. At this point, I can read a couple of pages of a novel and already know where the plot is going. This list doesn’t
Hidden Gems
Some books get buried in the vast sea of titles for all kinds of reasons, with no one to appreciate them. That doesn't make them any less worthwhile. I'll recommend some good books that I think are worth reading, to help you through a reading slump. (There's no need for me to recommend the really popular books; most people already know about them, so I won't say much here.) Scroll down and start with the books below. If anyone advertises a book, I'll check it out first. If it's genuinely good, I

Toad's fairy tales are interesting
Sure enough, he was invincible at the opening

Choose one of the characters you support, reply to the nomination post to support as required, and you will have a chance to share the 180,000 starting point coin reward! Support Wang Chong in "One Sword Cut Through Nine Heavens" and share 180,000 points together! [Nominated Characters] "Crushing the Nine Heavens with One Sword" Wang Chong [Character Deeds] Wang Chong, who entered the Tianxin Contemplation at the age of three, completed the Five Consciousness Demonic Scroll at the age of eighteen, and was valued by high-level officials and was brought in to study the "Xuanbian Sutra of All Transformations of Heavenly Demons". At the age of twenty-eight, he passed through the tribulation of immortality, trained his own gods and demons, and became the youngest demon master of the demon world. After the age of thirty, Wang Chong conquered the world without a single defeat. He was known as the six authentic sects of the demon sect, the eighteen special sects, the thirty-six side sects, the seventy-two heretics, and the number one genius in the millennium! After that, Wang Chong progressed bravely and diligently. In two hundred years, he broke through four realms in a row. At the age of three hundred and twenty, he was promoted to one of the six demon kings of the Demon Sect, and was named the Wanhua Demon Lord. But Wang Chong was not proud of this. In order to make another breakthrough and advance to the supreme demon realm of the demon sect, Wang Chong entered the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons and took out the supreme scripture of the Supreme Demon Sect, the Book of Lianghen. After one hundred and eighty years of hard training, he finally mastered the magic skills and became the first person in the contemporary demon sect and the only supreme demon in the demon sect. Don't be frightened by these names. At the moment when Wang Chong was transformed into a demon, he sensed the catastrophe of heaven, man, and life. After performing the Dzi bead calculation, it was a situation of death and no life. God is going to kill me. Things are often scary but... The past cannot be pursued, and the future cannot be grasped. Wang Chong, who had no hope at all, was sent to the past by Yan Dzizhu and the seven true kings of the Taoist sect, starting a grand story of cutting through the nine heavens with one sword. ) [Reason for nomination] The protagonist Wang Chong, the wandering toad, is named Wang Chao, so he is considered to be the dearest child of the toad. The protagonist is a mischievous ghost, a heart-stealing thief, who has been surrounded by thousands of flowers and never touched a leaf. Relying on his handsomeness, he can do everything without hesitation, and of course he doesn't take away his kidneys. Nowadays, this kind of person is called "Neptune" or "central air conditioner". He loves to steal other people's disciples. For example, in his previous life, he snatched the most outstanding disciple of Taishang Demon Lord, one of the six authentic sects of the Demon Sect, and made them worship him as their teacher. Don't ask why he wants this kind of momentum. The daughter of the old rival of the Emei Sect was also robbed by Wang Chong. He made the rival's daughter practice magic skills, and the old guy soared. Otherwise, I would dare to rob him (akimbo) if not bragging. This kind of "three views" is very upright. Everything depends on "diligence" and a serious benevolence to adopt the opponent's disciple. The daughter's role is not much, so she must cherish it. [Participation methods to support this post] 1.

I raised it for half a year and didn't dare to look at it.
I think the early chapters of Toad's books are all masterpieces, and then the middle chapters are okay, not so amazing, but acceptable. The ending, forget it, is that the ending? It's a mess. The ending of each book, I feel that this is the last Toad book I will read, and it is so good, I hope this one will not end badly, but the ending is still sad
This book may indeed be Toad's pinnacle work~ It's still very interesting in the later stages.
The male protagonist is 1.56 Meters tall? ? You have to remember that you are a toad spirit and cannot always like little rabbits.
Draw a picture of Wang Chong, with a white snake spitting out its palm. (I feel like the painting is a bit childish, so book friends will criticize it!) I really like the character of the protagonist.

The meaning of "One Sword" has transcended the limitations of online texts
When I first read "Yijian", I just liked the style of Toad. I didn't care about other clueless pursuits. But now that I read it, I found that this book far exceeded my expectations. As a milestone in China's new martial arts, Huanzhu Louzhu's "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" series can be said to have far-reaching influence. In the past half century, there have been countless adaptations, imitations, fanfics, and works based on their worldview settings. However, most of these works only have their form but not their spirit. *Toad is a rare exception. Whether it is the "Shu Mountain" set in the online game or the "Xian Gourd" series, it makes people feel like they have re-entered the world of Shu Mountain. However, there are always shortcomings. Their structure and restoration of "Shu Mountain" still focus on words and stories, but have not yet extended to the core level of thought. Over the years, the Huan Zhu Shu Mountain series has also been questioned by many, the first of which is the strong fatalism in the book, as well as the simple binary opposition represented by "Emei is absolutely correct". We have also seen a lot of criticism or evolution of this kind of questioning in many fan works. Among them, I think "Yijian" is the best, bar none. On the surface, "One Sword" opens up a different world, and has its own background that is different from the world of Returning Pearls to Shushan. However, the detailed settings of the sects, characters, etc. In the book already imply a large number of metaphors (or even similes) about the setting of Returning Pearls to Shushan. Based on this, I think the development of this story can be seen as a conscious (or subconscious) reinterpretation of the world view and core values of Huanzhu Mountain. Especially from the time when Xuande started performing, and even when the big guys behind the scenes left one after another, Wang Chong traveled to the heavens, Taoist Yang began to reincarnate, and the curtain hidden deep in the water of this world opened one after another, we discovered that *Toad used a seemingly clichéd and simple rebirth story to deconstruct a brand new Shushan for us. For example, in Xuande's story, people cry cute in front of them, but they are cruel in the back. For example, good and evil are clearly defined in the eyes of the bottom, and the identities of good and evil are mixed in the eyes of the top, and they only care about interests and closeness, and other plots that may seem funny, nonsensical, or even chaotic and crazy to us. But if we enter the Shushan Pearl Returning world, we will find that this is the real law and logic of the Shushan world. Applying the setting words in Fairy Sword, Huanzhu Louzhu's Shushan series can be called "Shushan outside", while *Toad's "Yijian" can be called "Li Shushan". The former is "Guang Weizheng" in the eyes of the world, and the latter is the reality and helplessness behind closed doors. Many seemingly inconsistent stories in the former can be reinterpreted from the perspective of the latter, and you will find that they are so. If you understand Li Shushan, you will naturally understand Shushan Shushan. Thank you *Toad for writing such words and receiving such a book. I am very lucky.
Toad finally has a book that's not bad. It's not easy to read Toad's books from 2003 to now.
