A Reading List for Readers Out of Books: Primordial Chaos and Mythology
History, fantasy, and mythology: books I've been following
Only Recommending Books I Enjoy (I Read Popcorn Fiction)
(If you find a good book that isn't on my list, please recommend it in the comments. Being short on books is miserable.) I only recommend books I enjoy. I only recommend the ones I'm following, so please keep in mind that the list may be out of date. If I show up as a trainee reader and a book has been here for a long time, that means I stopped reading it. I never care much about prose or plot when I read novels. That's too much effort. If I enjoy it, I'll keep reading; if I don't, I won't, no m

Classics and Great Reads Few People Know About
The places where the protagonists live are called “Realms.” Each book has its own Realm, and they never interfere with one another. Even the protagonists can never break through the boundaries of their Realms. We, however, are observers who can cross those boundaries. [Worth a Read]: Readable [Recommended]: Interesting and enjoyable [Highly Recommended]: You’ll regret not reading it (ಡωಡ)
Worth Following When You're Out of Books, Slow-Burn Favorites
For my own reading. Few angsty stories, and no brainless power fantasies.
Some Books I've Read
These are all books I've read. Some are old and may seem out of place next to today's chart-toppers, but they're still worth a look.
A Game Is Like a Life, but a Book Is a Whole World
Just looking for books that are satisfying, fun, and easy on the stomach. I’ve tried countless duds and am immune to them all now! I started with online gaming novels, then read Blasphemy and discovered Jiang Nan’s books. Reading Rise of the Dragon Path introduced me to Xue Hong. Reborn: The Business and Officialdom, a rebirth novel, and the political novels Riding the Tide and The Leader were all astonishing. Juan Tu’s mind-bending stories are great, and there are plenty of excellent infinite-f

I've seen people praising Li Shimin, saying there are both praises and criticisms. I'd like to ask, aside from the Xuanwu Gate Incident, which was a family matter, what wrong did Li Shimin commit? Was the people suffering?
How should I put it? It's really annoying. The main characters obediently acknowledge, call out, and actively identify with their brothers, sisters, fathers, etc., But they can't get over the hurdle of being a princess, right? They act all high and mighty, wanting to be eunuchs.
After reading a few chapters, I can tolerate some minor flaws, but the recurring appearance of Changsun Guanyinbi really annoyed me. Either use "Changsun Shi" or "Guanyinbi," or even just call her by her full name, Changsun Wugou. Using her surname plus her given name is truly something else!
The beginning was well-written, but later on, Li Jiancheng was portrayed as a fool. His entire family was killed by Li Shimin, yet he remained unperturbed. The protagonist feigned arrogance, constantly proclaiming he didn't want to be emperor, even though he knew neither of the two emperors would survive. He still pretended to only care about self-preservation… And now, he's already acting as regent…
In recent years, there has been a surge of hype surrounding Yang Guang and Li Jiancheng on social media. Li Er (Emperor Yang Guang) has indeed suffered a lot; he has no real achievements to speak of, and all the credit has gone to Li Jiancheng and Yang Guang.
Seeing that it's been released, there are three problematic points: 1. The chapter about waking up Yin Qiao is a bit awkward and problematic. 2. The army is equipped with a large number of down jackets. First, there must be enough chickens, ducks and geese to have enough down. If there are enough chickens, ducks and geese, it means there is enough food.
After reading over a hundred chapters, I thought the protagonist really didn't want to be emperor, and that he would support Li Er later on. It all depended on how to get Li Er to tolerate him. Having read four hundred chapters, the protagonist still keeps saying he doesn't want to be emperor, but wants to make Li Jiancheng a puppet so that he and Li Er can share the power of the Tang Dynasty…
My recent writing has been weird... Really strange 🤔 What is the protagonist even trying to do? Is he trying to be a virtuous man while pretending to be one? He keeps talking about being a carefree prince, yet he's constantly worrying about everything. The protagonist is written like a woman, indecisive and dragging his feet.
I don't know why, but I just can't stand watching protagonists kill palace maids all the time anymore. Maybe it's a side effect; the protagonist has forgotten that he was once a commoner.
Apart from the late Tang Dynasty, most other works about the Tang Dynasty have flopped. This is because readers who enjoy history are becoming more and more familiar with the Tang Dynasty and are also increasingly disgusted with this kind of subject matter. I personally predict that it will most likely flop.
