🦝 Recommending novels I enjoy and am currently following. 🦊 These are the genres I mainly enjoy: fan fiction, cultivation, historical fiction, light novels, showbiz, and mystery-solving. 🐰 I tend to favor fresh, relaxing, easygoing stories with sound values and a touch of absurd humor, as well as other kinds of traditional feel-good fiction, rather than toxic feel-good drivel. 🦭 When I have time, I'll write more detailed recommendations. When I don't, I'll just add a quick recommendation. I'l

There was nothing worth noting outside the library, except for a few drifting energy creatures. Perhaps it was late, and most of the readers had already left. You stood at the entrance, wondering whether to go in, when you noticed a notice on the bulletin board: ༺≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏≏༻ ❀ Only fantasy books are accepted. ❀ Recommended books may be added to the collection at the curator's discretion. ❀ Books with no updates for a month will be removed from the collection.

Sky Blue Reading List: Every Book Read with Care!
After the rain, the sky turns blue where the clouds part. Such is the color of what is to come. I remembered this line of poetry while browsing the featured books section one day. It speaks not only of Chai ware, the finest of the Five Great Kilns, but also of the hardship behind its creation. It made me think of how much effort goes into writing every book. This is the Sky Blue book list. Writing is hard, so let’s give every book the careful reading it deserves.

All About Reading Lists
I just got the urge to recommend some books I am currently following and really want to share, so everyone can discover them too. I also have a peculiar habit: I do not read completed books, very short books, or most Qidian platinum-author works, so the books I recommend may be somewhat niche.

Unearthed Treasures from the Sea of Books: Underrated Novels, Part 1
I've been reading since 2004, and years of experience have shaped my tastes. I lean toward science fiction, fantasy, and historical fiction. In general, I look for books that are interesting, well-written, or just plain fun. These recommendations are for when you're out of things to read. They're enjoyable, but not flawless. Sometimes I forget to keep following a book, but you don't have to read every story to the end. Besides, even good books often go downhill at the finish. Lately, digging for

Every time I read a book about transformation and look at the comment section, I feel sad Originally, people would not be so excited about transformation and said: "Shouldn't this be on a female channel?" The category of "Transformation into Substitution" was directly deleted... Although many people told me that this was not Zhang's original intention, since he proposed the proposal and knew that it was a one-size-fits-all approach but did not tell other writers to only change his own work, I still despise him. 🤫

The secret to Dorothy's vast harem
Many netizens don't know how to open a harem (mistake). The following editor summed up an effective plan: 1. Disguise and go out: the purpose is to lower expectations →2. Cultivate feelings: I win if I receive the good guy card →3. Reveal the true appearance: There are really readers who are not better-looking than the protagonist, right? →4. Great success The above is the secret of Xibao's harem. The editor has also tried it, but it really doesn't work. I don't know why. If you know it, let's discuss it together (no need) ps: I am so happy at the hot spring, this hat is so brave
Every time I see the adjective "beauty under the stars", I think of Li Jiayu. . .
First of all, the author is ♀, very cute (*/∇\*) The author himself is very capable2000+ words a day, 163 on the monthly list, can you believe it? It's just a weak bird, even slower The characters are very fleshed out, after all, you see, the protagonist of this scumbag author actually has 230,000❤️ The story takes place in the world of witches [The witches are all female, and so is the protagonist, and then the witch opens up the world The world is colorful, including elves, beast girls, angels, demons, succubi, centaurs, moon rabbits, foxes and a series of other races]. The protagonist is old and weak [cannot defeat his lovely sister Alice], but he still pretends to be a pig and eats tigers (because he is from the earth) , who is very famous for the life-based magic he created. He encounters a cold and arrogant seraph in the library, and then the angel is the goddaughter and child bride adopted by the protagonist's mother. Then he learns about his own life experience, daily + battles, and the story of the protagonist building a warm home is narrated. Come Euphilia: "Come home with me and inherit the family property" Dorothy (old and stubborn): "I don't" Euphilia: "You and Sophilia will marry and have a child, and who will decide who will give birth to you" Dorothy:. . . . Reject, make conditions, PK pure white girl, win, 50-year agreement. . . There are not many settings, and they will not be crammed in all at once, but will be added slowly. There are no bricks and nouns, and the character creation is really full, such as the big sister next door type Mia, the brilliant dragon, the golden princess, the rich woman, gentle and considerate, full of martial arts, good figure, plump cough~ In short, it is not wrong to get into the trap~ Slow-heat type, even more slowly, just like a bowl of fish porridge a day
The current update speed is only temporary. It won't be long before this guy becomes a salted fish again 😏
When I read Chapter 1543, I stopped. Dorothy sat in the palace and brushed the magic network, watching the witches discussing how to eliminate the brave legion. She sighed and published a long reflection on empathy - dragon slayers should not become evil dragons, people who have been exposed to the rain should hold umbrellas for others, and killing everyone when resources are sufficient is pure evil. Adam then recounts his loneliness and sorrow across the ages as the ancestor of humanity. A lord of all machines, the Grand Inquisitor of Annihilation, a moon god with an army of Moon Rabbit servants, sitting in the palace to speak for all the oppressed - this is like a billionaire who blogged on Weibo and lamented, "Why are young people so impetuous?" What makes me even more uneasy is that Dorothy said before criticizing the witch, "If you let her make the decision, she will also choose to kill the genius. After all, it has to be right." She based her morality on material conditions. Killing is "helpless" when resources are limited, but killing is "evil" when resources are abundant. Empathy in her framework is not an ethical principle, but a garment that you can only afford to wear when you are full. The same goes for Adam. He said that "the fault was those arrogant gods who stood in the clouds and looked down on all living beings", but he himself destroyed civilizations of several epochs. Do those civilizations have their own idealists? The narrative doesn't give their perspectives - they're just the backdrop for the hero's story. When Adam told about the human country being slaughtered by elves, we saw his anger and loneliness, but we couldn't see what the last thoughts of those who were killed were. Suffering is not told as suffering itself but consumed as the raw material of a heroic narrative. Chapter 1,600, all the "sufferings" I know are the sufferings of geniuses. Dorothy has triple SSR talents, Audrey is a nine-tailed fox, Fanny is an artificial god, and Sophilia is the son of the God King. Each recounted misery comes with a sparkling tag of talent. And a low-level witch with only a few hundred mana in her magic power—what's her name? What does she think of the Three Kings' rule? Did she also listen to the slogan "witches are equal" and then turn off the magic network with a wry smile? I have no idea. She never appeared. The novel constructs the enfeoffment system, the servant army system, and the destiny bonus system, and then spends all the narrative time on the beneficiaries of these systems. The appearance of the system is delicately depicted, and the people suppressed beneath the system disappear. Dostoevsky did not ask the Tsar to reflect on serfdom. He wrote about the process of Raskolnikov being torn apart by poverty in the cramped attic. Lu Xun did not write about the grand ideals of revolutionaries. He wrote about Xianglin's wife repeatedly telling Amao was snatched away by a wolf and the people around her changed from sympathy to indifference. No character said "Feudal ethics are wrong", but every reader understood it - not because they were convinced, but because they were stung. Good literature returns the right to define justice to those who suffer injustice, allowing readers to live inside a crushed life for hundreds of pages and draw their own conclusions. "The House Witch" does exactly the opposite: let an almighty god speak for everyone. The author equates "letting the protagonist speak the correct values" to "the work expresses the correct values". But the act of narration itself—who is told and who is ignored—already makes a real value judgment that is the exact opposite of the value in the line. You can't allocate all space to the strong and have the strong preach that the weak should be respected.
