Notes from the Dream Studio
1. All comments on this list are my personal opinions. Please don't take them too seriously! 2. I only review books I've actually read.
Vast Skies, Endless Snow: Who Will Sail With Me?
First things first: no playboys or harems. There's a bit of everything here, for readers of any gender. I've read every book on this list carefully myself. I'll keep updating it if I can. I didn't know about Qidian at first and just searched online. Later I got a basic paid account, but after reading more, I decided it wasn't worth it, so I upgraded to a premium account. Everything recommended here is a book I've read myself. Feel free to like the books you enjoy o(≧v≦)o. The most-liked books wi
✨Together Until Our Hair Turns White✨ (Completed Reads for a Reading Slump)
🍁 Pure as snow atop a mountain, bright as the moon among the clouds 🍁 I heard you had a change of heart, so I've come to end things with you 📓 Twelve historical romances by Lin Jiacheng 📓 Other historical romances, mostly excellent completed works There was a time, and a style of writing, that belonged to Lin Jiacheng. Some say the heroines in Lin Jiacheng's books are too melodramatic. But I think it's not so much that they're melodramatic as that they value love too much and themselves too l
What My Heart Loves
First, a note: this list isn't limited to novels from the main site. It also includes female-oriented novels. I'm a woman, so please don't be surprised to see those here. These are novels I personally enjoy, with engaging plots and good writing. To me, whether they're from the main site or the female-oriented section, they're all worth reading. I especially like historical fiction, mysteries, crime investigation, historical romance, and xianxia, so most books on my list fall into those categori
Fun, Feel-Good Female-Oriented Novels
Novels I’ve read that are good, interesting, and original Most are new, though there are also completed books and ones with lots of chapters already. There may also be some male-oriented novels without romance. I don’t like formulaic stories or romances so sugary they make your teeth hurt. I prefer female leads who stand on their own as people, rather than living in a man’s shadow or being surrounded by awful people and acting like a miserable saint with a warped view of the world. I tend to rec
A History Buff's Book Nook: The Song Dynasty
The history of the Song Dynasty is fascinating. It was one of the few legitimate dynasties to last for several hundred years, yet it never achieved true unification before its fall. Its civil officials and generals were all remarkably capable, but it still couldn't shake its reputation as a weak dynasty, losing every battle. Three northern dynasties came and went, while its own territory kept shrinking. It seemed capable of little beyond holding on to what it had. First, its culture: In calligra

The male lead is actually the crown prince of the Liao Dynasty, while the female lead is from the Song Dynasty. This awkward situation is completely unsuitable for the female lead. If relations between the Liao and Song Dynasties become tense, her situation will be difficult, and she will be used as a pawn.
One more thing. I'm afraid the author will starve if I don't subscribe. How can I bear to read such a good story in a pirated version?
I recommend "The Posthumous Records of Zeng Gong" and "A Study of Zeng Bu".
This novel does not set in a fictional historical period, but it is still a web novel. The characters, plot lines, and story settings all have a great deal of interpretation and fictional elements. It's difficult to construct the conflicts in romance novels by simply copying historical materials, because official histories rarely record the emotional world of historical figures and various…
The more I watch, the more I feel that Uncle Zeng and Sister Huan are going to break up. As a modern woman with an independent and strong core, Sister Huan would never accept the constraints of feudal ideology and become Uncle Zeng's appendage! No amount of sweet words, jewels, or delicacies will work!
I couldn't help but confess my feelings!
My description may be a little inadequate, but the writing is fluent, the atmosphere is warm, and the details are exquisite. I wish I had discovered it sooner! Also, this is the author I've seen who interacts most with readers—to the point that I had to read every single comment, which seriously slowed down my reading speed. I'm giving this a "bad review" 🤭.
Facial reconstruction of Emperor Zhezong of Song
AI reconstructs the figures of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Zhezong of Song. Emperor Zhezong must have been a handsome young man.
The development of the female lead's character
It's impossible for a time-travel story to not have a cheat code, and it's also impossible not to embellish and develop the supporting historical figures; otherwise, they wouldn't be writing novels on Qidian.com, but publishing papers on CNKI. Romance novels can't possibly avoid depicting the joys and sorrows of love, nor can they possibly feature only one official couple.
Expected to be available on August 28th
It's tentative, it will be available next Friday. To thank everyone for their support, I plan to update 3-4 times on the day of release. If I can keep up with the writing, maybe 5 times? Haha, but I will still stick to quality. 🌹🌹 Please subscribe if you're passing by, and leave comments for discussion. Let's have some fun together!
The author's cooking
The physical book on cooking was published in 2005 by Shanghai Literature and Art Publishing House. Some everyday dishes I usually make: Snowflake beef and scallop noodle soup Crab meat stuffed asparagus Braised beef shank Stir-fried squid with green peppers and pickled vegetables Steamed Egg White with Shrimp and Shiitake Mushrooms (Fuyong)
I've traveled from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, and I've also traveled through a thousand years! 😄 The author's writing style has changed dramatically, incorporating modern elements into ancient society. It's humorous and witty, while seamlessly blending history into the story. I love it!
