Completed Novels I’ve Read
I've been reading web novels for about 15 years. I used to read everything, but now I'm always in a reading slump. These days, I mostly read historical, sports, infinite-loop, entertainment, and fanfiction stories, along with books by a few authors whose styles suit me. At first, what matters most to me is the protagonist's characterization. After that, I care whether the plot fits who the protagonist is.
My Personal Picks, Come Take a Look
A few standards I use when looking for books: 1. For fantasy, sci-fi, xianxia, and historical novels, I want good writing and a good plot. 2. For light novels, anything goes as long as it's not too cringey. 3. For unusual worlds and niche genres, the plot just shouldn't be a complete mess. The writing can be decent and that's OK. 4. Basically, I've read every well-written soccer novel. 5. For urban entertainment novels, I like them lighthearted.

Sigh, I don't know when it started, but football stories without cheat codes just don't feel relatable anymore. Maybe it's because the Chinese national team is so disappointing. In this year's World Cup qualifiers, even finding opponents for warm-up matches is pointless. Compared to forwards, I think China really lacks midfielders!
Bai Lele's statement is utter nonsense. If any random player in China had this level of skill, Chinese football would have dominated the world like table tennis did long ago.
Isn't the dashing style the style every player dreams of? Messi's 8km run was described as a stroll, while the "Handsome Guy" only ran 2km. Imagine a player who runs a total of 70 kilometers in 35 league matches, scores 30+ goals, and provides 10+ assists. This is what a "chosen one" in football should be like.
... It's comparable to "Silly Waist" (a popular internet meme), a fast-paced, quick read.
Author, can you please change this female lead's character setting? She's henpecked, and in the entertainment industry no less... I... 😥
Why is the protagonist's passing so incredible yet his shooting so terrible? His passing is so good, he can accurately deliver the ball to his teammates or even their feet. Is the goal smaller than a human body? It's really baffling that the protagonist can't even score into an open goal despite his amazing passing.
Even if the Chinese national football team is terrible, I still enjoy reading about authors writing about them returning to China to play for the national team. But if you insist on writing about finding a female lead in the entertainment industry, does the protagonist not have enough green hats? I'm speechless. Many novels are like this. Some novels even have characters who are described as "celestial beings." MMP.
Stop with the fuss and getting so involved with domestic affairs. Are you planning to join the national football team? Don't add so much drama; it's pointless.
The protagonist isn't just stupid, he's completely brainless.
Why do all the authors of football novels like to include romance? They can't seem to write it well, so they just insist on doing it.
