"Treasure Trove Bookshop": Anime and Light Novels, No AI-Generated Stories

Mostly anime and historical fiction. I write reviews but don't give ratings. Most of these books are complete. Some explore extremely niche topics, while others are famous blockbusters. Whether it's a morning glory tucked away in a corner where nobody sees it or a rose beloved by everyone, each has its own brilliance. These books all have some degree of originality. I won't use AI to bring in older books, and I've also filtered out some ongoing works, so I rarely use AI or quote it at all. Parti

Buddha’s Hand Shrouds the Heavens, I Rule the Sky

With a hand, I shield the heavens. The heavens answer to me. I love well-written books and great stories. I hope you'll enjoy my reading list. If you find something you like, please save it and recommend it, and help create a little good fortune.

Not simplistic, and well worth reading

My Reading List 🔥

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.

Readers in a Slump, Come On In! Guaranteed to Find Something New

I don't recommend books near the top of the overall rankings. There's no need, since everyone can find those. If a book is already near the top, that means I added it to this list while it was still new. (I've got a good eye 😎)

The World Cup may set soccer alight, but passion isn't confined to the pitch. Basketball, rugby, boxing, sprinting: the thrill that comes around once every four years is here on every page of these sports novels.

Beat the Reading Drought: Fast-Paced, Plot-Driven, and Mind-Game Novels

I've been an avid reader for over ten years. This is a record of books I think are good. I prefer fast-paced, plot-driven novels and have little interest in power fantasies. I read all kinds of things, and anything that suits my taste may make the list. Some may be abandoned or end badly, and you may disagree with my opinions, so use your own judgment. One person's honey is another person's poison. This list reflects my personal views only. The only thing I can guarantee is that I've read at le

Farming / Games / Sweet Romance (One Love Interest)

Sharing good books. 🍀 My favorite flavors: farming, games, everyday life, and sweet romance 🍀 Usually one heroine or none. I'm not opposed to multiple heroines, but there are few of those here. 🍀 The plot must at least make sense, without forced, brainless contrivances, and the writing should flow smoothly. 🍀 Feel-good stories are fine, but not shallow, amateurish novels with arbitrary settings and plot holes everywhere. In male-oriented novels, I use heroine to mean the protagonist's partner.

My Recommendations 📖📖 God-Tier 🔥 Plenty to Binge 🔥 Worth a Read 🔥 A Mixed Bag

I only recommend books I enjoy. I'll add them and recommend them gradually.

Currently Following (An Emergency Kit for Reading Slumps)

These are the novels I've been following lately. Everything on this list suits my taste, has something distinctive about it, and is worth recommending in my opinion. They're only books that fit my personal preferences. If you like them too, I'll be delighted, but everyone has different tastes, so it's perfectly normal if you don't. I've been reading for ten years, and as a veteran bookworm, I'm always running out of things to read. Finding a good novel that suits my taste is no easy feat. Ratin

Sweet Romance (+ My Personal Picks)

I like novels with sweet romance, and everything here is either fully purchased or about to be. I'll also add other kinds of books I like from my bookshelf from time to time. (P.S. I think I have a pretty high tolerance for toxic content.) Lately, aside from a few romance novels I'm following that are finally getting good, I haven't found any other sweet romances worth reading. If you know any, leave a comment under this list! ( '╰(' ) I've mostly moved to another site recently, so updates will

Lord Zhu's Ultimate Book List!

At some point, I started becoming fascinated by the convictions authors bring to their writing. To make characters feel alive, an author needs beautiful, flowing prose to portray them. But that's only the surface; it's just a shell. The protagonist and all the other characters need determination, courage, and dreams, along with their original ideals and ambitions. For that, the author needs to understand them deeply and write with care. It's easy to paint a tiger's skin, but hard to capture its

I Want to Read with My Brain Switched On!

This list is for readers who: - Start wondering if the author is in elementary school as they read - Think, “Could the author at least have Googled that before writing?” - Are already reading without thinking too hard, but still can't put up with it - Don't mind simple writing, but don't insult my intelligence I've been reading for over a decade, so I've sampled just about everything. I love wild ideas and accept even the strangest premises. In a parallel world, the basic rules can be different

As the title says, this uses a simple scoring system. A record of the books I've read. 60 is passing, 80 is excellent, and 90 is exceptionally rare.

Tip-Off Approaching! The Must-Read Basketball Guide to the NBA Season!

You know, Qidian is the best web-novel platform. I started reading basketball novels there a long time ago, and the number of good works released over the past two years has been unbelievably large. I think these basketball novels could have great chemistry with our readers. Sometimes choosing books is difficult. After thinking it over for many days and nights, I decided to recommend these to you. I can hardly wait for you to see this reading list! As for the other good books, I wish them all th
