I've dropped so many books halfway through~

[Brilliant Stars] That Summer Night, We Gazed at the Milky Way
👌☝🖐 Every novel worth recognizing is a thrilling vortex leading to a real world, capturing a moment of glory as its author ascends to godhood. A good novel should be a vivid world that runs on its own, with an internally consistent logic. These fictional worlds are like stars of varying brightness, shining across the heavens. This list gathers a selection from that galaxy for your consideration. The most important criterion for evaluating a novel here is its [world-building completeness]. For no

A Vast Library Through the Ages: Great Reads of Every Kind, Plus Self-Recommendations and Promising Newcomers
Some books are wonderfully written but hardly known, buried in the endless sea of novels. It's a real shame. This list is dedicated to finding excellent stories across all kinds of genres. I carefully select books I enjoy and share what I consider classics with more readers. Writing a book isn't easy. If there's room, I'll add new books that authors recommend themselves. Once the list is full, I'll remove books previously added from reader comments and make room for new self-recommendations. Us

Hello friends, I am Zhang Shizhao, the Grand Chancellor of the Southern Court of the Great Wei Dynasty. Just now, a friend asked me what happened to Grand Chancellor Zhang. I asked what happened? He pointed to my two broken legs. I looked! Oh, It turns out that last winter, a young man, in his twenties, possessed seven or eight extraordinary meridians, leading thirty to fifty rebels.
A Brief Discussion of the Differences and Shortcomings of This Book and the Restoration of the Han and the Inheritance of
I'm a long-time reader, having started reading *The Resurrection of the Han Dynasty* in my senior year of high school and now in my senior year of college. I even have a fan title now—so many years have flown by! Let me briefly point out the current problems with the book. First, a weakness: a lack of exciting moments and climaxes.
This is a story sparked by a dry well. ●‿●
Games like "The Dragon Demotion Roadmap" are even more boring; let's slack off and draw some maps instead.
There are five books on the bookshelf, three of which are by the Egg Spirit Emperor. Currently, this is the only book I'm following. Given that the Egg Spirit Emperor neglects state affairs and his update intervals are longer than my single day off 😡, I'll use the time while waiting for updates to take a break and start learning to draw from scratch, maybe drawing some maps of the…
The historical prototypes of some of the characters in "The Demotion of the Dragon"
Some experts have already compiled historical prototypes for many figures, but there are still some, such as Qian Tang and Xiao Zhou, that haven't been compiled. Therefore, after consulting some materials, I've made a rough compilation for everyone. 1. Zhou Xingfan Historical prototype: Zhou Shaofan

Just kidding, I'm posting a thread for extras, everyone knows what I mean, come quick and I'll kill you, I won't bury you. Try to write your character descriptions as clearly as possible, and I'll use the ones that seem suitable.
With this kind of update quality, do they really treat their readers like human beings?
I recently reread *Overthrowing the Han Dynasty*, reading it very carefully and attentively. Before reading it, I had three chapters unread in *The Demotion of the Dragon*, and now I have five. To be honest, I don't really care about update speed, and I even dislike the atmosphere in online novels where authors are forced to update daily; too fast an update obviously lowers the quality.
Haha, I said two months ago that if someone has family matters to attend to and their updates become slower and slower, it's basically because they've abandoned the project, and there's no need to waste Qidian coins. I got criticized by a lot of people for that, but I wasn't talking nonsense. You guys keep waiting, I'll come back and check back in another month.
Egg-Begging Emperor's Proclamation
It is said that wise rulers are diligent in their governance, while mediocre rulers neglect their duties. In the past, Emperor Huhai was greedy and despicable, leading to the collapse of the powerful Qin dynasty; Emperors Huan and Ling were incompetent and foolish, resulting in the division of the Han dynasty.
