Saved Good Reads
I've been reading for ages. I mainly read historical romance, but I also enjoy fantasy and pay close attention to the writing. I've found plenty of great books over the years, so here's a record of the ones I truly consider worthwhile! Good prose matters, as do sound logic and a good set of values!

A Love So Deep, I Know Not Where It Leads
I’ve read a lot of books, and there are always a few that linger in my mind. Mostly historical romance, transmigrate, and reborn stories, with sweet romances where the heroine is doted on. I don’t recommend stories without some twists. I like a little complexity, but not monologues.
When Mi Ruo Has No Heart, There Is No Joy or Sorrow
🍁 “From Entry to Inner Sanctum” 🍁 🍁 “From Entry to Inner Sanctum” 🍁 “I came to Qidian for Zhizhi.” “Now I can’t tear myself away.” So many stories unfold in this mortal world, and every story has you and me. Some stories are wonderful, but I never go back to read them, because the sadness they left me with far outweighs the warmth. Some wonderful stories are ones I return to again and again, because the more I revisit them, the warmer they make me feel. Zhizhi’s stories have just that kind

🍁 “Zhu Rou” 🍁 🍁 “Zhu Rou” 🍁 📓📓 Genre-specific list, all historical romance 🌱🌱 Supporting new works, mostly ongoing As the saying goes: There are good holes to fall into everywhere. Why pine for just one pit? A true reader, even after being abandoned in a pit, is never afraid to jump into another! Just when you're most engrossed in a story, the author suddenly abandons you in the pit. I think every Qidian reader has a story like this. Beating your chest, going berserk and flipping the table, c
✨I Have No Willpower to Keep Up with Updates✨
Formerly known as “Pear Blossoms Drift Like Snow” From the opening of a novel by Zhizhi I Never have the willpower to follow ongoing stories. Or maybe I've never been able to stick with anything, not taking medicine when I'm sick, following novels or shows, going to bed early, getting up early, practicing calligraphy... Maybe it was always destined to be this way. I'm just a “terrible” reader. I'm sorry. I once loved “you,” the ongoing story, just not enough to see it through to the end. These
Every Book a Classic, Not to Be Missed!
I stake my reputation as a seasoned bookworm on these titles: every one is a readable gem of historical romance! There are also some fantasy, supernatural, and cultivation novels with solid writing. You can't go wrong giving them a try ☺️ One thing to be clear about: I generally don't recommend books I haven't read. I believe you have no say if you haven't read it!
Little Meow's Garden
The internet is the cure for sorrow. Why can we only pick one tag? Either historical romance or fantasy romance. That makes no sense... Are we only allowed to read one kind of book? I'm a flirt; I read everything. I actually started with male-oriented novels, all kinds of fantasy and cultivation stories!!!!

Absolutely No Mindless Stories
I've been browsing Qidian for almost eight years, and both my age and my taste in books have grown. I can't handle brainless or beginner-level stories. I also can't handle the overly cerebral novels aimed at male readers. I'm a casual reader of women's fiction. I like entertaining little stories to pass the time. Sharing them here for everyone to enjoy!

🍁Historical Romance Is My Favorite, Quick Transmigration Comes Second!
Female-led stories, delicate romantic relationships, and everyday life that's simple but never tedious: these are the things that draw me in. As a bookworm who only reads female-led stories, I dread running out of books, and it happens to me too. So here I am, drifting around Qidian and lurking~\(≧▽≦)/~

My personal thoughts
I hope Zhizhi can continue writing according to her own writing style and not be swayed by fragmented opinions. Because every reader has a different cultural background, their reading experience will vary, and different age groups have different tastes, so it's impossible to please everyone. This means that a mature author guides readers to elevate their reading comprehension and appreciation.
[Fanfic] Happy New Year
New Year's Eve, Song Mansion. Although it was cold in the twelfth lunar month, the busy people in the Song family mansion dispelled the chill of the world and brought some joy for the New Year. Song Jiyun stood alone by the window, gazing at the view of the Song mansion outside the small pavilion.
Yuanbao – The male protagonist who gets into the "backyard" the fastest
One day, the male protagonists were chatting idly. The man drinking tea put down his cup, straightened his sleeves, and cleared his throat: "What's so special about getting married in eight sedan chairs? 🥱 I'm the man who was 'carried' into my wife's dressing room in the third chapter!" He left after accomplishing his task, concealing his identity and name.
A new book is hard to come by, so please spread the word!
This is a story that Zhizhi has been thinking about for a long time. Zhizhi previously mentioned that she wanted to write a story about the inheritance of traditional culture. In "The Flower's Delicate Beauty," she wrote about lacquerware, and in "Entering the Hall," she wrote about porcelain. Please continue to support Zhizhi as always!
Happy New Year
Wishing Zhizhi a happy new year, a new beginning; may the new year take you further; may the new year bring you dreams come true; may the new year be filled with endless wonder; may the new year bring you a flood of inspiration and great sales of your books; and may the new year bring you boundless happiness with the company of your readers.
The name "ZhiZhi" itself is a guarantee of quality; seeing it makes you want to subscribe to the whole thing without hesitation. However, after the first few dozen chapters, from "Flower Beauty" to "Young Miss Biao," the quality noticeably declined. The plot became less simplistic, the characters became bizarre, and the writing style was significantly worse than before.
Happy New Year! May you have a healthy and happy New Year.
Undeniably, last year brought pain and sorrow to the vast majority of people, but the march of time will not stop and will continue to carry us forward. So let us temporarily forget yesterday, keep our eyes on the future, and greet the new year with confidence and positivity.
Happy New Year, Zhi Da! May everything go well for you and may you enjoy good health!
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and windows are the possibilities for exploring the world. In the past, Zhi Da used small windows to convey many wonderful novel stories to us, and I believe that those may be the stories in Zhi Da's novels. Perhaps it was a case of heaven being jealous of talent; the long hours of hard work caused problems with DaDa's eyes.
I support Zizi, this story is really good! I love clouds, and I love the proud and aloof Motoko!
Take care of Zizi, starting with me.
Dear readers of our book club, the recent release of our new book might attract some jealous people. If you spot any of them, please tag me in the comments so I can handle it. Let's all protect Zhizhi, Dengtangrushi, and Yunduo Yuanzi – starting with ourselves!
