Happy Reading Room · Curated Reading List /👹🍱✂️
🚢🆚👒🐠⛄️ Eight years ago, when I first discovered web novels, I loved xianxia, fantasy, and invincible power fantasies. I didn't care about logic or intelligence. ⛱️🥣⛱🍬⛱️ Five years ago, 🐎 I still loved xianxia and fantasy, but I was no longer into invincible power fantasies. 🚴♀️🚴🚴♀️🚴🚴♀️ Three years ago, I still loved fantasy and xianxia, but by then I expected logic and intelligence. ✈️🔋💈🎺👾 Two years ago, I suddenly got tired of fantasy and xianxia. I fell for historical and fantastical storie
XUNXIANG's Reading List
A new list, mostly filled with books I like. New authors are welcome to leave recommendations in the comments. Dropped or abandoned books will be cleared out from time to time.
Purely Satisfying Reads!
Books mostly fall into two categories: brainy fiction and feel-good power fantasies. But there are plenty of other genres too, a little of everything. I'll add books gradually. New or old, every one has to be a gem.
Updated Regularly: Promising New Books
I'll keep adding new books that seem worth reading. My only criterion is that the enjoyment you get from a book should be worth the time you spend on it.

A Happy Reader! Laugh as You Read!!
I've read a lot of books. Like with movies, the more discerning I become, the fewer I enjoy, and good books are hard to come by. I hope to sift through the best and find friends some great books in a variety of genres!
Cherry Blossom Pink, Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moonlight
Like falling snow, the petals drift down in graceful swirls, pink blossoms spreading across the sky. Though the flowers fall, their fragrance remains, wafting into the noses of travelers and filling their hearts with sweetness. Flowers and colorful butterflies dance together through the springtime of youth.

Afternoon Tea and Novels
My personal standards for a good book: the writing must be solid, and the story must be logical and internally consistent. Imaginative ideas are fine, but they need to be developed plausibly. I prefer books with substance and finely detailed plots. This list reflects my personal taste and collects works that Chiji personally read and thought worth recommending. I’m not trying to please everyone! I’m especially fond of strong writing, imaginative worldbuilding, and farming stories. If that’s not
Conquering the World
I mainly read web novels to relax, so a good story comes first. But poor writing and unclear prose can easily pull me out of the story. Wish fulfillment is normal in web fiction, but if it's too far removed from reality and the author writes without any real-life experience, the result is often just self-indulgence. Readers will only get more and more bored. No matter how wildly the author spins the tale, taking it to heaven and back won't help. Readers want a story, not to watch you play with b

After reading seven chapters, I still don't know who the main character is. It's supposed to be retro, but it lacks the charm of classical Chinese; it's not exactly colloquial, but it's filled with archaic jargon. And after seven chapters, it's still describing a move. I suspect it's just padding the word count.
It feels more like reading a science article than a novel. 😰😰
It's truly admirable to be able to write without any desire or ambition; if the author ever wants more, then the author has failed. Admirable! It doesn't even look like a novel.
The paragraphs were too long; I had no desire to continue reading!
This kind of novel is incredibly unfriendly to readers. The paragraphs are lengthy, the annotations are tedious and numerous, and there's all sorts of obscure knowledge. If it's just something I write for fun, that's fine, but if I'm trying to make money, I suggest I give up. It simply isn't competitive... I wish you continued success in your writing!
Would I say – I'm here to learn how to make notes?
Keep up the good work, author! I've added it to my favorites 🌹
The efforts of the sea of words
The effort to strengthen the dialogue is commendable. The appearance of modern colloquialisms in the pre-Qin period is too incongruous and out of place. Although the most important thing for a novel is not how good your writing skills are, it must be in line with the dialogue of the time and space.
Seeing your post in the group chat, your article is indeed not as good as the opening of "Potential," which is full of pardons. You could learn from Qin Li's writing style.
I've already read it; please maintain this unique style.
