Books I Love
As an old hand at reading, I go by feel. Most of what I read is female-oriented fiction, and I have a few basic requirements: 1. Clear paragraph breaks and no overly dense blocks of text, for the sake of my eyes. 2. A protagonist who feels fresh and natural, and is grounded in everyday life. 3. Smooth, comfortable prose. Something about the writing, plot, premise, or characters must have struck a chord with me. I like reading ongoing series, so since I started this list in early 2019, most
Ten Years of Reading, and I Still Can't Find Enough Books!
I started reading novels in high school, back in 1998. I started reading them online in 2008. After all these years, I’ve become increasingly picky. It’s so hard to find a book with sound logic, beautiful prose, believable characters, and a story that suits my taste 😊

A new book to read! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I hope the male lead isn't Yu Yang, nor the class monitor. They're both too weak to protect Enni. The fact that Yu Yang was the husband (brother-in-law) of a mistress's daughter in his past life speaks volumes. Flies don't land on eggs without cracks; this guy is definitely not a good person.
The female lead is a total saint with a cancer of sanctimonious tendencies. She's sharp-tongued but acts like a pushover. She can be nonchalant even if someone kicks her a couple of times, and she'll say "this is the last time" if someone spits on her face. It would be better for her to just be a pushover saint than to pretend to be a saint under the guise of not being one.
The plot is so unrealistic, the most absurd thing is that the male lead falls in love with the female lead after experiencing two different relationships, it's so ridiculous. Even the non-positive supporting characters are ridiculous.
I was drawn in by the title's emphasis on career, but I was disappointed. Despite various plot holes at the beginning, the female lead is undeniably successful in her career and handles family relationships quite well. However, once the male lead appears... The romantic subplot becomes incredibly awkward and inexplicable. It feels like the pairing was forced, and I couldn't help but rant about it. The leads are mismatched; it would have been better if there was no couple at all.
There are so many plot holes... In the 1980s, the female lead was 19 years old. If we go back, she would have been born in 1970 or 1971 at the latest. Where did the one-child policy come from back then?
Spicy strips, I haven't had them in ages.
Keep it up, Whale! We support you! 😄
This book is a bit messy. Putting aside whether Xie Minjun takes her mother's surname Xie, she calls Xie Maoyan "little uncle" and Xie Maoyan's older brother "elder uncle." What kind of bizarre way of addressing relatives is this?!
The use of names to pad the word count is too obvious! I heard the female lead's name countless times in the first chapter; it gave me a headache. At this rate, even the best writing skills will be ruined, and very few listeners will be willing to finish the audiobook.
