[Fists, the Other Shore, and Alternate Worlds] Books I Like and My Reviews
Most of these are books I'm currently following or have finished. They're all pretty good, with some having especially brilliant concepts and others showing exceptional writing. (I'll share more of my thoughts on authors I'm familiar with. For those I don't know well, I'll just say whether they're good. That's enough.) (I won't remove some books that fall apart later, but I'll add follow-up reviews.)

The Cute Little Book Nook
I don’t care about an author’s fame, rankings, or sales. I only care about a book’s quality and the work itself. I hope more promising newcomers get discovered, that excellent books with disappointing results get unearthed, and that Qidian publishes stories for more kinds of readers. Books aren’t ranked on this list. My tastes are eclectic and pretty particular. I can overlook flaws in a story or an author’s lack of skill, but I won’t put up with contrived, melodramatic plots.

A Discerning Bookworm's List: Obscure and Niche Reads
I've been an avid reader for ten years, and I have picky tastes. If a book clicks with me, it's fate; if it doesn't, I drop it like a hot potato. My tastes may differ from the mainstream, so please bear with me. Ratings: Poisonous Weeds (unreadable), Promising Sprouts (worth keeping an eye on), Rations-- (just about readable), Rations- (worth following), Rations (a good read), and Immortal Herbs. Book recommendations and ads are welcome. A like or a follow would be even better. If you'd like to

My thoughts after reading this book, and a few suggestions.
The pacing is so slow, and some of the American dry humor feels a bit awkward to read. This kind of humor is fine in movies because it's in English, but it just doesn't feel the same in Chinese; it feels very disjointed. Especially these chapters about resolving internal conflicts—they're inexplicably tedious and boring, with too much dry humor.
If it's not nice to say, give me two monthly tickets and a tip.
How many chapters about Liv have been written so far? I counted; I've already written eighteen chapters about the off-field events since this match. The next match is against the Lions, a weaker team. If I don't go into detail, I estimate I'll easily break twenty chapters about the off-field events, and even aim for thirty.
Here's a suggestion: during the initial phase of a new book, please don't switch to 8 PM or 10 PM chapters like before. It makes the reading disjointed and very difficult.
The author seems to have gone a bit too far. Most fans would be more interested in Mahomes or Andy Reed? Tom Brady or Billy Cecke? If the NFL wins, of course, they'll praise Coach Long; the most exciting parts of the game come from the players, and at most, they might think the Chinese-American coach is skilled.
I came across this book on a recommendation page and read it in one go, finishing it in no time. Even though I don't understand rugby, I still enjoyed it immensely _(•̀ω•́"∠)_. I felt the author wrote the romance well, but the balance between the game and the individual players felt off. There was too little romance; it would have been better to include it more occasionally. I don't know why so many readers are dissatisfied with the romance (๑• . •๑).
Writing about coaches with too much on-field detail is really jarring, and this work isn't even an ensemble piece. If the author intends to focus more on describing on-field details, they should stick to the players' perspective. Honestly, I'm getting a bit sick of it after this point; I might as well go back and reread King of the Bay Area.
Unreasonable aspects
I've only read a few dozen chapters. It's a 20-yard pass, and the commentator said 500 words in the short two or three seconds the ball was in the air! What kind of person is this? How can their mouth be so fast? It's not like I haven't watched the game. During the long pass, the commentator said it was the quarterback (name) who made the long pass to the wide receiver (name).
My thoughts on this book
As a sports enthusiast, my favorite sports are football and basketball. I only watch American football occasionally, just to learn about the rules and a few star players. However, the author's novel has given me a deeper understanding of American football and the complexities of professional football in the United States.
The book's perspective is somewhat disconnected from the protagonist's. While the competition scenes are vividly described, they aren't driven by the protagonist. The protagonist's only contribution is challenging established American perceptions; however, America is no longer the affluent nation it once was, and gaining American acceptance of Chinese and Asian Americans isn't particularly satisfying.
Just finished reading it. I couldn't finish the author's previous book, "King of the Bay Area," after reading a few chapters because I got a bit dizzy, but I managed to finish this one! 233 First of all, this article is quite friendly to complete beginners like me who know absolutely nothing about rugby.
