So Many Books, Yet Nothing to Read

There are so many genres of books now, and plenty of them are all over the place. You have to sort through them carefully yourself.

The King Sent Me to Find Books

This list mainly features xianxia, fantasy, and sci-fi. Other genres may be added if they're good enough. A book doesn't have to be a masterpiece, but it must have exciting moments. If you've got a story to tell, I'll gladly share a drink with you. If you've written something compelling, I'll do my best to recommend it.

Tend the Horses, Chop Wood, Read Widely

Gods are people too. They become gods simply because so many people love their work. Over the past ten years, I've witnessed the rise of many masterpieces and followed plenty of new novels all the way to their finales. It's been a truly meaningful experience. This list welcomes works by both established authors and newcomers. As long as a story has exciting moments and something that moves me, I'll gladly sing its praises. I hope you find some great new reads here. Come share your thoughts!

The First-Rank Book Recommendation Pavilion

The best stories always make you want to read them all in one sitting, only to leave you suffering as you wait for the next update. So many great works have appeared over the years. I’ve followed one after another, each time reading until my eyes grow hazy and I’m fighting sleep, yet still unable to put the book down. Truly great works are crafted with care by truly great writers. They simply have to be recommended. A good story is a fine drink to accompany the quiet moments of life, a pipa melo

The World's Number One Library Pavilion

The seasons can be made utterly bleak, if the sun so wishes. Life can be made utterly lonely, if love so wishes. I can vanish forever, if you so wish. Apart from my longing for you, I have nothing to call my own, not family, not friends. And yet, if you so wish, I will make this longing wither and break. If you so wish, I will sever every river, let desolation and drought stretch endlessly. For all my life, I will never think of you again. Except... except on some nights, when tears leave

Ruixue's Reading List: Newcomers and Great Authors Alike, As Long as They're Good

Feared Across the Four Seas

Have you not seen the Yellow River’s waters descend from the heavens, rushing to the sea, never to return? Have you not seen the sorrow of white hair in the bright hall mirror, black at dawn, snow-white by dusk? When life goes well, make the most of it. Do not let your golden cup sit empty beneath the moon. Heaven gave me my talents for a reason. Even if my gold is spent, it will return again. Roast a sheep, slaughter a cow, and let us celebrate. We must drink three hundred cups at one go. Maste

Mandated by Heaven

The sun sets in the west. I stumble drunkenly through the streets. After a hundred steps, I laugh at the shifting fortunes of life. Peach blossoms fall, and I entrust my thoughts to my beloved. Like Liu Ru, I could raise my cup and sing. My restless dreams mumble; so many days have already passed. The fragrance of flowers and the moonlight answer one another from afar. I hope to plant peach trees and gather them into a grove. How carefree could I be, trading writing for wine? ...This list collec

A Thousand-Year Empire, Drunk in the Jianghu

How could I meet you, at the moment when I was most beautiful? For this, I prayed before the Buddha for five hundred years, begging it to let us share a destined bond. So the Buddha turned me into a tree, growing beside the path you must take. In the sunlight, I carefully covered myself in blossoms, each one the hope I carried from a past life! When you come near, please listen closely: the trembling leaves are the passion with which I’ve waited! But when at last you pass by without a glance, wh

Upright and Harmonious

In this noisy world, what could be more relaxing than quietly feeding the fish, walking the birds, and reading a book? The Way is found in balance and harmony. Whenever I find a good story, I want to share it quietly with more friends. Let’s enjoy it together. If you have a fine work to share, I’ll have good tea ready for you.

Reading by Lamplight Under the Moon

I update whenever I feel like it and only add books I’m currently following, along with ones I think are good or written by major authors, so everyone can keep an eye on them.

Copying the blurb doesn’t count. This list is basically a record of what I’ve read. I won’t remove completed novels unless the list is full. I’ll remo

A Few Notes

Keeping a record of the stories that left a deep impression and that I really loved. I've never managed to keep up with a story successfully, and some favorites get forgotten while I'm letting them build up chapters. I'm too lazy to update the tags on completed books I added years ago~
