Different strokes for different folks. I'm not into light entertainment, and I avoid romance and urban fiction, with a few exceptions. I dropped some of these books later on, but they still have something worth reading. I hope you find one that suits you.
Dazzling New Books! May Our Great Motherland Prosper and Flourish
New releases that really stand out! Fantasy, xianxia, urban, historical, sci-fi, light novels... (The flowers-for-a-booklist event is paused. Books added to the list in exchange for flowers earlier will stay for at least a month. I'll read comments recommending new books from now on, and add the best ones to the list.) 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
Some Truly Worthwhile Book Recommendations
I mainly read fantasy and online-game novels, and hardly ever read urban or historical fiction. It's not easy to find a book I can stick with, so I often check out other people's reading lists and get a lot out of them. I'm updating my own list too, in case anyone comes across it and wants to share recommendations. I'm pretty picky about what I read. The flaws I point out are things I've noticed looking back after finishing a book. As the saying goes, a few flaws don't outweigh its merits, so I
Absolutely Invincible Heroes! No Leveling Up or Monster Hunting!
This list doesn't include traditional monster-fighting-and-leveling novels. I lean toward invincible-protagonist stories where the hero wins through sheer strength. [Absolutely Invincible] means no one is stronger than the protagonist. [Relatively Invincible] means the protagonist is very strong, with only a few characters who haven't appeared yet being stronger. And to answer why they all get abandoned: these invincible-protagonist novels almost always do.

A Letter to Ease the Sleepless
Books are like wine: fragrant, strong, or rich. Their contents give them a mellow depth. Books are like songs: soaring, subdued, or sorrowful. Their contents make them sweet to the ear. Books are like paintings: vivid, dim, or understated. Their contents make them beautiful.
A Sword, a Blade, a Jug of Wine, and a Book: My Only Companions on the Road
Travel ten thousand miles, read ten thousand books, explore countless worlds. I've added the good books I've read over the years. Some may have been written a long time ago, but they're still classics today. In the early years, reading novels was truly intoxicating and addictive. I'd stay up all night reading, dreaming of them over and over. Fortunately, I was young back then. Reading was such a thrill: strange and fantastical worlds, heroes leaping across rooftops, powerful figures soaring thro

New Books Across All Genres That I'm Following
These are new books I’m currently following. No idiot protagonists. I wouldn’t recommend a book unless it was good. I’ve had my fill of fantasy and xianxia, so these days I’m reading books with something to say. I swear on Chairman Mao that I’ve bought every volume of every book I recommend. That’s no small expense for someone with a day job. Give this list a like if you enjoy it!
Books with Smart Characters
The books on this list are for readers with some years and life experience under their belts! The characters are intelligent, and the stories are thought-provoking, with few feel-good moments. If that's not your thing, feel free to move along. I prefer realistic writing that doesn't treat readers like idiots, and stories rich in wisdom about life. This is a niche list, but the stories here are excellent, with vivid characters and ensemble casts full of life.
Sensible Villains, Calm and Rational Protagonists
This list has been around for years, so it’s only natural that a few books don’t fit the title. Some may have been abandoned by their authors or taken down, too. I’m keeping them here as mementos.

I’ll try to add some good books that don’t get much attention. Recommendations: Portrait of a Mask, Horror in Two Dimensions My ratings aren’t about a book’s quality, just how well it suits my taste.
Immortal-Grade Bookshop
I’ve been reading novels for over ten years and have read all kinds of books, but xianxia is still my favorite. Of course, whenever I come across an exciting passage, I often can’t put the book down. It’s like becoming the protagonist myself, caught up in love and hate, drawing my sword to slay my enemies. Through the words of so many authors, I step into the world of xianxia... Every book on this list has its own unique charm, some like a gentle breeze, others like a raging storm... In short, X
Fantasy and Xianxia, Especially Mortal Cultivation and Primordial Wilderness Stories
The Cultivator Clan, King of Immortal City, The Child of the Jie Sect, Seeking Immortality, The Divine Kingdom of Faith, Endless Shattered Realms, The Great Sage Hanguang

I've been reading for a long time, so my standards are a little higher. This list has books for casual reading, as well as some lesser-known titles that are still being updated. You probably won't find books that dress up tired old formulas in equally tired prose.

There is no way out for the Shushan style
Although Shushan is the originator of Xianxia novels, if online novels are imitated, they will die. Let's talk about why. First of all, Shushan was written in the Republic of China, and the articles were updated with newspapers, and the update speed was monthly. This is very important. Why do you say this? In the Republic of China, newspapers were consumed by wealthy literati, and readers at that time were very willing to buy newspapers. This prompted Shushan's writing style to favor literature. So now, web articles are updated on the website, what is the audience? Netizens, students, porn fans, etc., Prefer leisure and entertainment. What are the characteristics of this group of people? The first is relaxation, the second is entertainment, and the third is fun. So, Long Aotian, Mary Sue, harem novels, The Big Stallion, Xiaobai novels, online reading has been accumulated for almost more than ten years, and only then began to appear profound, that is, sophisticated, logical, beautiful, and story-telling. However, there is still a big gap between this and Shushan. In the original text of Shushan, there are poems, clouds, and such things abound. Secondly, there is the literary foundation. How difficult is it to write a full-length group portrait novel? Looking at the novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, how many full-length group portrait novels are there? There are only a handful of them. First of all, the four great masterpieces, Journey to the West mainly depicts the four masters and apprentices, with group portraits, but unlike Shushan, the Western number only has Water Margin, Dream of Red Mansions can be shortlisted, and Dream of Red Mansions is comparable. Why is this So, the full name of Shushan is Biography of the Heroes of Shushan. In order to highlight the heroes, the author also specially wrote a short biography of each hero, which is now called the extra chapters. The extra chapters are more than the main text. It can be said to be a novel without pig's feet and group portraits. Internet writing does not require literary skills, and even goes the opposite way, requiring it to be more understandable. The article can be written in an ancient style, but it cannot be adapted to the ancient style. This will make people uncomfortable. For example, in the clothing field, there are fake Hanfu and Hanfu. The difference is craftsmanship. The same is true for furniture. Antique furniture and antique furniture are also different. The writing is the same as what Kong Yiji wrote, except that you are wearing a long gown and drinking wine, and you are intoxicated by the way. But what do the people around you think? What Internet articles require is easy to understand, with a strong sense of inclusion, a pig's foot, and a main line. Think about it, the story has been told for thousands of years, East and West, tragedy and comedy, are there any routines? Like martial arts, whether it's ancient or modern, is it just summed up by the saying "sons and daughters in the world, grudges and hatreds"? Like romance, can it be summed up by Juliet? Why is it still thriving? Isn't it true that each generation has a sense of involvement? Who among the young people today will still feel that a great hero is excited for the country and the people? Nowadays, Internet articles all start with farming and then become promiscuous. Isn't this what young people are pursuing nowadays? Get ahead.
Here are some suggestions for the author... Although it is a Shushan type novel... It can be written in a single character biography mode... Some are like most of the novels nowadays... Written only from the perspective of the protagonist... Then you will die when you get hurt, and if you want to continue writing, you can reincarnate... This way you can write more easily and retain some favorite novels. Readers of Baiwen... After all, they look very similar... As for the main body, it is best not to deviate from the current framework... There should be something that should not be forced... And it should be told lightly, especially the protagonist is still an old man about 100 years old. Some things should be shown to be indifferent rather than spoken or written in the text. This is better. It doesn't require everything to be fun. After all, how many ups and downs can there be in a life? It's not like terrorists destroy, smash, loot, burn, kill, and plunder every day, right? There are more humanistic things, so that it can be different from the current white-knuckle writings and make people feel comfortable to read.
Asked about Emei, I finally want to go to Emei
I think this book is quite good. I came from the wrong path. The background of the protagonist is a bit new and interesting. This is often the case. The more you pursue something, the less you get it. If you don't want to pursue it, you get it instead. This is fate. The characters in it are also well drawn, and the division of realms is also quite good. I read it in one sitting. How should I put it, I have a bad feeling, it just feels too bland, or there is no sense of immersion. Of course, it depends on how the author wants to write it. If it doesn't want to be written from the perspective of the protagonist like ordinary online articles, I think it's good. However, if this kind of bland plot is too long, it won't be interesting to read. I think the plot needs to have ups and downs, and a certain amount of conflict and contradiction, so that I can keep following it. The author is probably a fan of Wrong Tao. I think the most exciting thing about Dao Zheng Zheng, especially the plot of Jiuzhou, is that it has a complete and grand main line. From the moment Da Yan opens the pulse, every plot of his plot is related to the human calamity, and the plot is introduced through the conflicts between the two mysterious and demon factions, the conflicts between various sects, the conflicts within the sects, etc., And highlights a theme of contention, making readers feel nervous, excited, and want to keep reading. This book feels that the author may not have a particularly complete idea of the main plot. After all, he also said that he decided on Lu Xuan as the protagonist at the last minute. I hope to see a more exciting and diverse world of Xianxia. The methods are not only flying swords, but also formations, spells, strange beasts, etc. Similarly, I also want to have a certain understanding of the background of this world. How many sects are there? What camps are they divided into? What is the purpose of cultivating immortality? Etc. This way I can better introduce the protagonist. So I hope to show more content from the world of Xianxia, rather than just wandering around in the mundane world. I also hope that the author will not rush to update. Good works will not come in time. Most of the updates a day are unfinished. I think the author also wants to write a good book, rather than simply relying on this to make a living. We old bookworms are also patient and will not give up because of slow updates. I think quality is more important than speed. I think as a new writer, this book is already well written. I also hope that the author can write better and better, continue to improve, and write better works😁😁
A good book, I should say very good. I have been reading for about ten years. I usually read books by old authors and popular books by great masters. I feel that this book is very interesting. I stayed up late until 10 in the morning to read it. I hope the author will update more. Come on (ง •̀_•́)ง
This is a new work with many shortcomings. I hope you will bear with me and thank you for your support!
Don't just write about strange people and strange things. There are great rivers and mountains along the way, so many strange mountains and rivers, and ancient and modern travel notes about various secret places and animals. Traveling and exploring are extremely interesting.
After seeing the recommendation from Mistaken Path, I came here to read it. It's really good. But in recent chapters, the sword-learning and sword-fighting plots feel more and more like the old version of Shushan Swordsman Legend. On the contrary, I feel that the plot written before entering Emei is more interesting. The master calculates and arranges everything with his fingers, and the protagonist, the time-traveler, is like a puppet, following the steps step by step. It is difficult for readers to empathize with this kind of learning. In addition, the conflict in the novel is laid out in one stroke at the end, which is a complete failure in writing a novel! The above is purely a personal feeling, I hope the author Jun Yue writes better!
Finally, I arrived at the foot of Mount Emei. It is estimated that there are 50 chapters at the bottom of the mountain, 50 chapters on the mountainside, 50 chapters at the top of the mountain, 50 chapters as a disciple, and 200 chapters later, Lu Xuan will reach the first level of Qi Refining.
It's a very real book, whether it's family or love, it's described very well. But I think the best thing is to write about the essence of cultivating immortality. The essence of cultivating immortality is to seek immortality. No matter how sanctimonious it is, this purpose is essentially selfish. There will be many regrets and reluctance on this road, but in order to seek the great road, you must have the determination to let go of everything. This part of the book is very descriptive. On the other hand, the plot progress is indeed a bit slow. This does not mean that the writing is not good, but if there are no ups and downs in a book, it will often feel like a running account. I hope that the subsequent plots can be more compact.
