Over 2 Million Characters
Someone left me a message about a reading list I made years ago for books over two million characters long? I couldn’t find it myself, so I took it down. Anyway, since that’s the case, here’s a long-overdue update with my latest bookshelf: books I’ve finished reading.

Red Chamber Novels I’ve Enjoyed
2026.6.1 1. Most Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction falls under alternate history, but it's fundamentally different from conventional historical fiction. The unique charm of these stories lies in the lives of the women in the garden. If a book uses the title Dream of the Red Chamber but ignores the fates of the women throughout, then the words "Red Chamber" in the title are meaningless. If it's just a historical novel wearing a Red Chamber disguise, it would be better to write straight-up hist

A Thirty-Year Veteran Reader's Reading List
Nothing more to it: they just suit my taste and ear
First Snow! (つω`)~
It has to be satisfying, it has to be fun!!! ←_←~(￣▽￣)~(￣▽￣)~This is unbelievably satisfying~ No preaching. Having fun is what matters most. After all these years of reading, I no longer sort books by genre. What I like changes with the time and my mood, so take your time looking. There is always something that suits you. (⊙o⊙)…A veteran reader's list after 14 years!!! This is only a tiny, tiny portion because there are simply too many. ..... Thank you, brothers and sisters, for the flowers.
A Ten-Year Reader’s Book List
I've read most of the books I recommend, or I'm currently reading them. If I feel a book is poisoning me as I read, I'll remove it from time to time. I generally don't recommend books where the protagonists or supporting characters seem brainless, where the logic is a mess, or where the story lacks basic common sense. I think I'm too picky, so these days I'm basically always out of books to read.

Some personal suggestions for the author; please refrain from criticism and engage in friendly discussion.
First of all, without a doubt, the author is one of the top writers of Dream of the Red Chamber fanfiction. There's no need to question the author's writing skills and ability, and the author guarantees the completion of the work, so newcomers can jump in with confidence.
A good book should only be read once; reading it more often will only breed resentment.
In the novels about *Dream of the Red Chamber* I've read, there are roughly two types. One follows a virtuous path, with fewer concubines, and is generally more refined and unconventional, such as *Struggling in the Red Chamber* and *The Romantic Son of a Concubine*.
Ideally, you'd write a different version of *Dream of the Red Chamber*, with a protagonist whose personality is similar to that of Wei Xiaobao in *The Deer and the Cauldron*—talented, witty, and charming (possessing advanced modern knowledge and abilities), and skilled in flirting (using modern techniques).
A 4,000-word long review of "Spring in the Red Chamber" - spoilers ahead!
The novel *Dream of the Red Chamber* is now officially finished. Leaving aside the subsequent side stories, I'll just evaluate the main text from a reader's perspective, sharing my overall impressions. Initially, the book was excellent; the writing was smooth, the exciting parts were engaging, especially the scenes where the protagonist criticizes Grandmother Jia.

What merit does the ribbonfish possess?
I absolutely can't stand the ribbonfish!!! Every day, there's that ambiguous smile, that cold sneer, like needles and thorns. Having a character like that as the female lead is a disaster!!! Little Jiao'er and Little Jixiang are much better than her. I skipped her appearance immediately, and then I saw Jia Qiang's sycophantic behavior. That was so disgusting I wanted to throw up!!! A book that's worth 100 points can only get 80; the other 20 points are deducted from the score for the fish.
Honestly, I feel like this author likes writing cuckoldry stories. If they've decided the protagonist should "receive" this woman, they shouldn't keep implying she'll sleep with another man. Otherwise, they shouldn't "receive" her at all. It's so irritating.
