I think these books have promising premises and plots so far. Keep in mind that everyone has different standards for what makes a great book, so the works on this list might not be to your taste. And even these promising young stories may go off the rails or be abandoned by their authors for any number of reasons. There's nothing we can do about that. The recommendations here reflect each book's updates as of the date this list was posted. Whether they go on to become hits or get abandoned is be

Personal Bookmarks
This list is for my own bookshelf and personal reading, including books I’ve only sampled. My tastes can be pretty particular. I find books through daily recommendations, featured picks from both platforms, Sanjiang recommendations, friends in reader groups, and targeted searches for promising new works. If you’re looking for something to read, check out the ones marked as finished. I’ve put up some books I didn’t finish too, just because I had something to say about them.

Here are some books I think are good ^ω^
Beautifully Written
Mainly anime-related, supernatural, and historical books, along with some other genres. They may not all be exceptional, but at least they are all pretty good.
Books I've Read
Books with distinctive new ideas, fresh settings •ᴗ• and original concepts; seasoned writing and good storytelling. I personally bought every chapter. This also includes pioneering works of certain genres. Although some aspects may seem clichéd by today's standards, they are still well worth collecting as nostalgic reads. Updated irregularly. If there are books I particularly dislike, I may list them as well, partly as a warning to fellow readers.
The Truth: The Wise Remain Unknown (Behind-the-Scenes Boss Stories)
I mainly share stories featuring masterminds pulling the strings or powerful figures, such as secret identity and avatar stories, weaving-the-supernatural stories, Fourth Calamity stories, and sandbox world-creation stories. If you know any like these, please recommend them in the comments. Feel free to follow and bookmark the list too. Updated from time to time.

Books I enjoy, and my ongoing search for great novels of all kinds. I hope you like them too.
Strong Convictions, Sound Logic, and Good Values
Books I’d consider rereading when I run out of things to read. I have a soft spot for stories with a certain charm, well-rounded characters, and depth of insight. I like principled protagonists with sound values. Women are a distraction from drawing your sword. All that said, I rarely finish a book after buying every chapter.

Urban Legends: Unsettling Horror and the Oppression of Unbreakable Rules
“What Are Weird Tales?” Weird tales is a general term for supernatural horror stories that have been told in Japan since ancient times. The term sometimes refers to any kind of horror story, but it can also refer specifically to collections of supernatural stories from the Edo period. The Yotsuya Kaidan, The Ghost Story of Yotsuya, and Botan Doro are considered Japan's three great ghost stories. More broadly, the term refers to horror stories and supernatural legends originating in Japan. In Ja

I like discovering new books and letting them build up, so I don’t follow every one as it updates. My descriptions aren’t professional or objective.

A Gourmet Reader’s Book List: You Won’t Regret Stopping By
Books I like. One female lead or none at all. They’re by both lesser-known and more established authors. I promise you won’t be disappointed: heartwarming, goofy, chuunibyou, funny, and more. I fell in love with novels nine years ago when I read The Demon Emperor’s Tears, from my first novel, The Demon Emperor’s Legend. I’ve gone from newbie to amateur, then veteran, then seasoned reader, and finally to the picky glutton I am today. I’ve read a lot and learned a lot along the way. Books are rate

So here are some unconventional xianxia novels that stand out from the rest. Different, with a rosy glow. How about it?

No one is calling out for the protagonist's positive outlook on life? ? I don't know when, the virgin-type protagonists were despised, and the murderous and bold protagonists began to rise. They would sacrifice to heaven if they disagreed with each other, and fight if they didn't say a word! It's not that this is wrong. People live at an accelerated pace, are under a lot of pressure, and like to vent. The bold and sharp protagonist does give people pleasure, but this does not mean neutrality. There is no market for the favored camp. It's just that some people fail to coordinate the relationship between the two, making the protagonist's goodness look hypocritical. Of course, this absurd story begins with a kind-hearted protagonist, but encounters the erosion of the evil attribute of absurdity. As the plot develops, it will definitely be extremely difficult to maintain a consistent kind nature. In fact, watching the protagonist be affected by the mysterious force, and finally control the supreme power and lose his humanity, this seems to be a history of the weak's counterattack, but in essence it is the tragedy of a person losing his humanity and becoming a monster. I hope, and of course, I don't blame the author harshly that due to changes in the market, the male protagonist will eventually become an enemy of mankind. After all, this requirement is too high, most of the weirdness cannot be solved, and human nature often cannot withstand too many tests. All I can say is, please be responsible for him. 😰
I was praised by the traffic police for wearing a helmet correctly on the road I will forward this to the comment area Please everyone be proud of me 🙂
Taboos about writing a book
The first point is, don't teach book friends how to be a human being. Just write stories when writing stories. Puzzle stories can be inserts, but they cannot be the main body. The theme cannot be the main body. The main body is the storyline and character description. Emotional expression can only be hidden... Second point, don't be in a hurry after choosing a theme. 90% Of the works that rush to introduce the background and characters at the beginning are the beginning and the ending. The author does not have the writing style to control the story at all. If it's not easy to introduce the background, don't introduce it. Show the background and worldview from the story. Third point, if you have some secrets in your heart, don't use them to screen readers.
Teammates were cheated without any trouble, but the Holy Son caused chaos when he touched Fangcun
I have followed more than 200 chapters, and it feels very good to see the male protagonist eliminate evil and collect monsters, and help human beings integrate weirdness. I really like this kind of style that has a positive outlook but also behind the scenes, so I don't have any trouble with the author's preference for female supporting characters. However, later on, there is too much emphasis on the emotional entanglements between the protagonist and various supporting female characters. The reason why Dongyi disappeared, the mysterious enemy behind the scenes, whether the world is reincarnated, the reason why Sequoia became grotesque, why Crow Mai was captured, the Friends of Humanity plan... I want to say that the plot has developed to this point, and there are already many questions that the protagonist should think about, plus I have also accumulated a certain amount of strength on the map. Either open another map and introduce special characters to reveal one or two secrets, or keep the original intention and continue to think about how to use weirdness to eliminate evil and promote good. It is better than inserting so many emotional scenes for me in the middle, making me seriously doubt whether the protagonist is being controlled by the rules. The force affected his consciousness. When the four teammates around him became weird, he had no divergent thinking and was indifferent to investigating the truth. He didn't even realize that Sequoia's return from the black hole might be inextricably related to him. It seemed that he really just turned himself into a monster. As a director, I was invited by the investigation team to do a favor. Everything that happened on the train was really just a drama. If the teammates captured him, they would be captured. Frogmen all know how to form a team to track it. The protagonist will not really regard this incident as an ordinary weird incident. As for the part about collecting Yingzi, it was exciting to see the changes in the Son, but the investigation team was still so useless from the first chapter to more than 200 chapters. They had to rely on the Weird Alliance for everything. What about the Friends of Humanity plan in the early stage? , What about the protagonist's ambition to help humans integrate the monstrous and resist the monstrous? Is the protagonist's behind-the-scenes development now the director of the Weird Alliance? Do you dare to do something exciting? First, write out the mastermind behind the scenes, and beat the male protagonist, so that he can understand the cruelty of the world. When did he stop making progress? What about the desire to eliminate crime and eliminate evil back then? I didn't write about the big villain, and I didn't do a good job behind the scenes. I just collected monsters in Lidu. In short, the book is really good. If you should, I should pursue it. I beg the author to let the male protagonist do the real thing. If it doesn't work, please change his personality. It would be great to be brothers together! ! !
A neighbor owes a loan shark and is being chased for debt. When the protagonist finds out, he plans to exchange his lifespan for money to help his neighbor repay the debt.
I really want to say something. The current online environment is very strange. It is always surprisingly tolerant of "evil people". When bad people do good things, they sympathize with them. Then good people want to do good things and find faults.
Maybe it's because I don't have enough ideological awareness. My interest dropped off a cliff when I saw this. The protagonist is so brilliant that I can't understand it, let alone relate to it
I've read a lot of ghost story novels, but I can't find the one with the amazing feeling of creating urban legends in Tokyo.
Not great. How to say it. The subject matter does not match. This rule combined with the Holy Mother is bullshit. I feel very awkward about what the author wrote. Even though it doesn't look scary, it doesn't look good either. It gives me a feeling similar to a monster-fighting and upgrading novel. It's really not good. And the rules are irregular. Not atmospheric enough.
I feel like there have been more people criticizing the book in the past two days. Does this mean there is still hope for this book?🤤🤤
