Original list: "#No fake reviews# Mainly for veteran readers, with unconventional plots and wild ideas. Shills, stay away!" Moved here as a backup. Some entries are collected in the comments. Ratings: S, A, and B, with plus and minus grades. No C-, D-, or E-grade books. Unless there's a special reason, I'll keep B-grade books to a minimum. I'm out of books to read. Sigh. Shills, keep out.

No Female Lead, No Romance, and a Sound Worldview
I've collected some novels with no romance. Of course, I haven't read every book on the list, or necessarily finished them all. Some stop working for me as I go along. But I guarantee there won't be any romance, a heroine, or a hero. If a romance plot shows up later in a book I dropped before getting that far, please let me know so I can remove it. I won't include books tagged "no female lead" or especially famous titles, since everyone can find those easily. The list is full, so to make room fo

Lighthearted, Offbeat Picks for Veteran Reader Black Cat Jue
These days, I prefer books that feel fresh. Something lighthearted is even better. Lately I've been into farming and development stories, fan fiction, historical tech, and the like. The ratings are for books I've read at least part of. If I kept reading, it means I could get through at least the beginning, so none are rated below 5. Books rated 5–6 usually fell apart later or became ridiculously padded, XXX, so I changed their ratings.

A Guide to Sharing Treasure Books: Gold Miner
Most are still ongoing, though some are complete. I like sci-fi, anime, fantasy, cultivation, American comics, and transmigration, so most of these fall into those categories. Here are some books I've dug up. If a book stops being good later on, I'll delete it. Books may be removed, so enjoy them while they're here.

In a Reading Slump? I've Read for Years and Know a Thing or Two. Not for Beginners
I'll update this list with quality novels from time to time. No novice-level writing, just strong prose and no harem protagonists. Some may have one or two love interests, but nothing too off-putting, and the romance won't be too bad. Any genre is welcome; I have broad tastes. I'm not great at writing introductions, so please bear with me. Hopefully I get the gist across... probably. Note: Space on the list is limited, so I'll remove older books, except for ones I consider excellent, such as Sn

No-CP Reading List,
I originally made this list hoping people would recommend books to me too, but after all this time, only a few have been recommended. A lot of my other lists have been abandoned, and I don’t feel like keeping this one up anymore either... From now on, I’ll just update it whenever I feel like it.

A reading list with actual plot descriptions. I'm tired of lists that tell you nothing, even after you read them. You can't even tell what the protagonist does (ꐦÒ‸Ó). I've put some descriptions in the comments ╮( •́ω•̀ )╭

Family members, feel free to leave a comment below the post if you have any thoughts. I'll read them all _(:зゝ∠)_
Let me share with you guys a dragon drawn by a master artist I follow. I absolutely love it!!! 😍😍😍😍
This book looks grand, but it's actually quite superficial. It just rearranges words and sentences in a mysterious way, like killing someone and deliberately calling it reincarnation, or something like "someone whispers" or "a hoarse voice comes from the darkness." If you like Chen Dong's style of writing that floats on the surface, this is good stuff. If you want something substantial, this is poison.
It took me a few days to slowly finish reading the previous parts, and please allow me to elaborate on this point. I rarely read online novels, nor do I have the habit of searching for books when I'm experiencing a reading slump. However, I stumbled upon this book by chance while searching for information about "elves" and "dragons."
It was somewhat interesting at first, but it got increasingly boring as it went on. I don't know why. Why does it feel like it gets more and more boring as it goes on?
If the protagonist hadn't spoken or transformed, this book could have been a masterpiece. Instead, it started strong but declined quickly; after the transformation, it started using pretentious, flowery language and formulaic writing, which is a shame.
I only read up to the point where the main character went to the temple before stopping. The beginning gave me a great feeling; the writing style and content were excellent, giving me a similar experience to reading *The Bamboo Grove*. But your appearance as a city visitor feels very abrupt. You suddenly dumped a whole bunch of new things on me.
To be honest, this book... If the maximum score is 100, the author's writing style is 98, the update speed is 75, but the plot is -80. It's outrageous. The author's writing is superb, but the plot is extremely toxic. If the plot weren't so toxic, the author might have a chance to become a great writer. I don't think this author is really suited to writing this kind of story.
It's such a shame about such a great start and results. It started strong but ended poorly. The initial descriptions and results were excellent, and the monster-themed genre has very little competition—it's already a niche market. The author's writing is just... Unbelievable.
It's a pity. The opening was amazing, but it faltered after the transformation. The writing style is indeed good, but the story itself is poorly written.
