Revisiting Old Favorites During a Reading Slump
Mostly light, feel-good farming novels and old favorites. Good to browse when you're out of things to read. The best prose and story structure come from Angry Banana, Mao Ni, Yan Yu Jiang Nan, Xiao Qi Xiao, and Feng Huo Xi Zhu Hou, the so-called Five Great Writers of Zhongyuan.

Niche Classics
My heartfelt recommendations from the past 20 years. I don't read power fantasies, and I reject formulaic level-ups and simplistic newbie novels. I dislike overpowered protagonists and brainless stories most of all. Starting from Zero scarred me, along with Angel and the abandoned Absolute Game. Now I have no interest in online gaming novels! I drop a book without hesitation if the protagonist challenges someone three levels above them. Traps, suppression in special locations, and magic arrays a

Bookshelf Additions to Keep an Eye On
Some I read now and then, though a few don't quite suit my taste. I'll keep an eye on them. Some have gone missing without a word or even a comment. Could you at least give us a little hope?
Watching the World with a Cool Eye
See all kinds of people and things in the world, along with all sorts of imaginative ideas. My standards for choosing novels are simple: first, the writing has to be decent; second, the story has to be good, not too far-fetched or illogical. I collect lots of spatial and rebirth stories, which are rare in print books. Some are still unread, but they’ll come in handy when I run out of things to read. I drop any book as soon as I find a trashy protagonist. People should have principles, self-respe

This book has decent writing, a passable plot, and a sense of the era, but it's awkward and difficult to read! First, when writing novels, avoid preaching or lecturing too much. I've read dozens of pages. Your book goes on from beginning to end. It's fine to talk about a little bit, but talking too much is disgusting.
It has a strong sense of the era, the writing is truly excellent, and what's even more remarkable is how well it portrays the culture and customs of Beijing, Guangdong, and Shanghai. A great book! Keep up the good work, author! 👍🌹
I read the book a second time and still couldn't get through it. The protagonist is portrayed as someone who wants to have his cake and eat it too. Reborn into that era, he's capable and his sole purpose is to make money. As long as the money comes from legitimate sources, he invests in legitimate industries that later thrive, especially those that are currently facing technological bottlenecks.
Raising someone else's daughter while the biological father is busy chasing other women—that's a bit too much of a saintly act… In those days, half the population of China didn't have enough to eat; how many would you have planned to adopt? Well written, keep it up!
The main character is going to take in several goddaughters and godsisters. I've read over eighty chapters so far, and he's taken in two goddaughters and one godsister. There are three female supporting characters who have become the main character.
It's well written, but one thing that really bothers me is that you bought a house and there's a corpse in the well, and you didn't even dispose of it. Are you keeping it to ward off evil spirits?

That's nonsense. You think you can just take a plane whenever you want? Without a work unit or rank, let alone a county party secretary, even a secretary of any status wouldn't take a plane unless it's an emergency.
This novel struck me as pretentious... And the author occasionally indulges in a bit of pretentious, artsy behavior.
The novel gives the impression of being set in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, a time of constant warfare. The protagonist is desperate to achieve revolutionary success, build a powerful nation, and resist foreign aggression... He's constantly planning ahead, establishing secret fronts and recruiting revolutionary comrades... Is all this necessary?
