Taking It Easy with Some Light Reading
History looks right to everyone, and wrong to everyone. Knowing your history can make you sound impressive. Fantasy novels are just madmen telling stories to fools, and everyone is happy. Who there would care about the disappointments that make up most of life?
A Veteran Reader's Best-of List
I've been an avid reader for ten years. Every book I recommend is one I've finished, and has the potential to become a masterpiece or is already a classic. I hope you'll show them plenty of support (๑ت๑)
Ripples of History
History is yesterday's reality. A few more steps, or a few fewer, can lead to a different outcome. Take the Battle of Fei River, the brainless Song Xianggong, or the three retreats of Jin before Qin. Even a small change in history might cause a huge change in reality. Imagination has no limits: wild ideas are what matter most.

The author vividly portrays the daily lives of Chinese people in Moscow: skinheads, Amon, the police, the market, Lyublino. Such a book couldn't have been written without firsthand experience; it's based on the author's personal experience, and also on the experiences of many Chinese people in Moscow.
Never abandon Natasha; never leave her for anything. I hope Natasha and Anton can grow old together. My wife is Filipino; our relationship has not been easy.
At first, I didn't feel anything because it wasn't exciting enough! But as I read on, I realized it's more like a documentary novel. There's no reincarnation, no superpowers, and the protagonist isn't some kind of genius or prodigy. It realistically portrays the mindset of a rebellious high school student.
I like to try out all sorts of genres to see if the books are good or not. I don't know, but damn, these days authors are writing like crazy, writing until they're sick of it, and then waiting for the next genre. It's no longer the era of pioneering new fields.
A wonderful book that lets you experience the joys and sorrows of being an international student. Subscribe to the full book to support it. I still vividly remember when I went to Moscow State University to study geology in 2003. When I first arrived, I couldn't contain my excitement and went for a walk by myself one night.
As I get older, I become increasingly disgusted with today's fast-paced culture, trashy videos, and superficial and impoverished culture. Language and writing are so rubbish now, utterly meaningless, just wishful thinking. Of course, I also forget how to write characters by hand. Are smartphones and the development of smart technology really a good thing? 🤫
It's true that Russians don't jaywalk. A few years ago, when I first arrived in Russia, in Irkutsk, there were no traffic lights at the crosswalk. I wanted to let the cars go first, but they insisted I go first. Honestly, back in China a few years ago, would any vehicle let you go first? Thumbs up!
This book is really good; it doesn't seem like something written for online novels. So that might be the reason why your grades aren't good enough? 😅 I suggest the author write more lighthearted, enjoyable stories, haha. Wishing you great success!
This is truly a rare gem! There are no save/load systems, no cheat codes, no endless boasting and face-slapping moments; it's simply the struggle and hardship of an ordinary person in a foreign land. The story structure, character design, plot development, and writing style are all excellent!
This could probably be made into a TV series; there are just no TV series about overseas students in China.
