Books that are pleasant to read, from a pretty wide range of genres.
Personal Favorites
I’ve been reading novels for years, so I’m keeping a record of what I’ve read as a keepsake. I’ve read every book on this list at least once. I lean toward fantasy, transmigration, no heroine or a single heroine, System stories, extreme-path cultivation, and so on. (Just adding the blurbs for now. I’ll fill in the comments when I have time.)
Mostly Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Gaming (I)
A selection of books I think are well written. They may be niche or mainstream, but they should all have a distinctive style or something that sets them apart.
【Great Books Are Meant to Be Shared】(Personally Vetted, Well Worth Reading)
I've read every book on this list myself. Only the interesting ones make the cut. Please follow and send flowers.
Plot Notes
A memo for keeping track of plot points and settings in books that catch my interest.
Interesting Books
For those
A Curious Adventure
We lost at the S Championships. All four teams managed to take just one game off our opponents. I've decided to drop every League of Legends novel I'm reading.
Some Mystery Novels I’ve Read
Some good novels I've read recently
Finished at Last, Time to Celebrate
Unforgettable novels I followed back in the day.
Books I've Read: History, Nation-Building, Western Fantasy, Fourth Calamity, and More
Latest update: Too lazy to write recommendations. Leaving this here for 2025. A record of books I've read 🚩 (More for tracking than recommending) 🌀 I like infrastructure-building, business management, farming, Fourth-Dimensional Disasters, history, and behind-the-scenes stories. But I'm open to other genres when I'm out of things to read, so my tastes are pretty broad. 🌀 Reviews cover only the parts I've read and are updated as I go. The fan-value indicators generally reflect my actual reading
Infinite Flow + No Romance + Original Dungeons
Any book with all three of these features goes on the list: infinite flow, no female lead, and original arcs. See the recommendations for details on content warnings and other specifics.
Yang Yang's Private Bookshelf
Some novels I've read before and others I'm currently following.
The Wasteland Book Nook
There are countless new books coming out every day, yet plenty of people still find themselves in a reading slump. There are so many books, but it's hard to know where to start. Which new releases are the best? You'll waste time comparing them all, so why not let me help you find some gems in the vast sea of books? To help you through a reading slump, this list focuses on new releases and promising early-stage novels that I enjoy and think are worth reading. I have eclectic tastes and may enjoy
For Personal Use | Xianxia, Fantasy, Wuxia, Light Novels, and a Little History and Mystery
Since someone actually reads these, I’ll give them a proper introduction. This is a purely subjective list, so don’t get hung up on the ratings. /Selection criteria: Promising new books, by big-name authors or newcomers alike. I only care whether I like them. I’ll update my reviews as new books build up a backlog. (Assuming I remember.) A few older books I like (very few). I’m good at letting books pile up, so most recommendations may go out of date. I’ll specifically mark the ones I’ve forgotte
Sound Logic, Fresh Concepts
A personal library focused on books with unusual premises, sound logic, and no [incomplete in source] novels. The point of reading is to discover all kinds of fascinating new worlds.
Cast a Wide Net, Reel In the Best: A Cure for Reading Slumps
A picky reader with ten years of experience. No protagonists getting tortured, no authors casually killing off popular characters, and no male leads neglecting their careers to fuss over romance in what are basically romance novels for men. 💝🙏💡 I like farming stories, slice-of-life, and everyday-life stories, as well as exciting, action-packed power fantasies. A story is slow-paced only if readers think it is. Don't use
The Whole Reading List
A bit of everything. No abandoned endings, dropped series, or harem stories, please.
Wild Ideas and Settings, Mostly Finished
Some books that caught my interest (The Silver Wheel, Dragon Throne, Diary of a Data Organism, Raising Monsters
Anime, Transmigrate, System, and Brainstorming Reads |•'-'•)و✧
Mostly anime-inspired stories, transmigration, System, sci-fi, magic, fantasy, and similar novels. I've read every book on the list, so they're safe and free of nasty surprises. Enjoy! P.S. What are flowers even for?
Easygoing Novels That Defy the Usual Tropes
My personal reading list
Shouwang’s Little Granary
Good books, love them, read more of them
All Great Reads, Any Genre
I personally prefer works with good prose and expansive frameworks. Novels with poor writing are truly unreadable to me. I usually read twenty chapters before deciding whether to add a book to my shelf, and I'm a slow reader at that. I rarely add a book to this list before reading several hundred chapters. I can guarantee that every book here is top quality and worth getting hooked on. I favor independent and self-reliant protagonists, and it's even better when the supporting characters shine as
Certified Great Reads by a 26-Year Bookworm
No brainless stories. I've been reading novels since 1999, and I generally can't bring myself to read truly mediocre books.
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.

The seventh stick | This is my planet - Sixteen Veins Flowers
"So, should you explain the current situation to me, Deng Yilin?" Gaia still maintained her demeanor, looking at Deng Yilin with a smile, and she didn't even let go of Deng Yilin's arm. Deng Yilin swallowed hard, "You, how did you know it was mine?" He originally felt that everything was under control, but at this time, Gaia's simple words broke his guard. Gaia yawned lazily, "Ah -, I was just guessing. I don't know if it was true or not. When the Mind Flayer was raging, my only pastime every day was to watch you and that guy named Lei fall in love and kill each other. After watching you for so long, you must be a little familiar." Gaia finally let go of Deng Yilin's arm, took off the Void Ring on the ring finger of her left hand with her right hand, and played with it in her palm. The ring looked simple and unremarkable from the outside, revealing the depth accumulated over time, but it felt cold in the hand, and I didn't know what material it was made of. But Gaia is too lazy to think about it. The world of cultivating immortals is full of these weird things. If she knows how much time it takes to figure them out one by one, how can she have time to be in a daze? "It's boring. Your performance is not as good as my giegie. At least she can sing and dance rap, show off my basketball skills, and lay eggs for me when I'm hungry. Your poor acting skills are so full of flaws that I can't bear to watch anymore." "Jiejiejie——" Before Gaia could finish her words, the mysterious boy appeared from the void, followed closely by Chen Baiyi. "Gaia, since this world is so boring, why don't you follow me to the Qingxuan Continent, join our Heavenly Demon Sect, dominate the world, and become an immortal!" The mysterious young man named Liu Siqing seduced with a bewitching voice. "Don't believe his words. The people of their Heavenly Demon Sect never have any good intentions!" Chen Baiyi raised his sword and showed a vigilant posture facing Liu Siqing. "Their Heavenly Demon Sect has deceived many planetary wills like you before. Once you've been cheated, you can only let yourself be slaughtered!" Gaia listened to their endless quarrel, "But what does all this have to do with me?" She yawned again, and even this time a few tears squeezed out of the corners of her eyes. "We don't know what the Demon Sect is going to do, but there must be a big plan behind all these unreasonable behaviors, which may be detrimental to us and the entire Qingxuan Continent." Chen Baiyi looked solemn and continued to confront Liu Siqing, but he was also afraid of his strength in this world and did not dare to act rashly. "Hey, let me ask you, have you made a mistake," Gaia said lazily again, "This is the Earth Star, this is my planet-" Gaia turned her palm over, and the three of them turned into dust, slowly falling, and blending into the earth. "You are really annoying-" Gaia finally took care of these little bugs, shrugged helplessly, and prepared to return to her big bed in the center of the earth. There was no way. For a salty fish like her, it was already very tiring to muster the energy to deal with the troubles that should have been solved a long time ago. How could she be asked for more? "The meaning of life is to lie down -" But before Gaia could sneak back to her hut, there was a sudden loud rumbling sound in the sky, and a huge teleportation array flashing with golden light suddenly appeared. Immortal cultivators wearing Taoist robes and surrounded by black and red evil spirits passed through the teleportation array with their swords, pouring all kinds of magical tricks on the earth below like locusts passing through. Observe carefully, the place where the teleportation arrays appeared is exactly where the awakening houses are located, and those humans who became spiritual mentors died suddenly when the teleportation arrays appeared, and the energy in their bodies turned into the energy to maintain the teleportation arrays. This is a conspiracy. The originally prosperous or peaceful cities and villages on the planet Earth were reduced to ruins one after another. People fled in all directions. The vast majority of people did not die from direct attacks, but were trampled to death by the crowd pushing and fleeing. Gaia was stunned for a moment, looking at the apocalyptic scene in front of her, and did not respond immediately. As the will of the planet, although she is not biased towards humans, the humans who claim to be noble at this time are no different from other creatures on the planet. She can watch human beings kill each other and become extinct, but she cannot allow external aggression to destroy the ecological balance of the planet. This is her planet! Gaia, who has always been a salty person, is angry, and the consequences will be serious! She is an invincible existence on this planet! The reason why those planetary wills who were deceived by the Demon Cult to go to Qingxuan Continent were treated as leeks is because they were far away from their own planet. But now Gaia is facing a different situation. She is on her own planet, and this is her home ground. She can absorb the energy from the earth's heart without limit. As long as the energy contained in the earth's star is not exhausted, she will be immortal. She frantically mobilized the energy in the center of the earth, and pillars of magma broke out of the earth and attacked the evil cultivators flying in the air. They screamed one by one, their bodies burned with blazing flames, and they fell from the sky one after another. It's a pity that it doesn't help. The dead are dead, and the living are gone. Human civilization has finally ushered in its darkest moment. "No--" Gaia roared, she finally began to regret herself. As happy as she seemed before, she is in pain now. Before the grief could overwhelm Gaia, her eyes were fixed on the teleportation array in the sky, and her eyes became firm again - a crazy and bold idea of revenge was brewing in her mind. She ignited part of the energy in the center of the earth and pushed the entire earth toward that great formation! The huge planet made the teleportation array even bigger, and the teleportation array seemed to be alive. It kept vomiting outwards, trying to expel this foreign object, but in the end it couldn't withstand Gaia's drive. In a blink of an eye, Earth Star has arrived on Qingxuan Continent. Looking at the unfamiliar continent below, Gaia did not hesitate and detonated all the energy in the center of the earth. The whole world is shaking violently, and cracks are spreading on the earth, swallowing up countless creatures in this world. Gaia watched the earth and rocks under her feet continue to collapse, with a hint of pleasure in her eyes. She smiled with relief, watching the disintegration of Qingxuan Continent, using up her last bit of energy to push a piece of land that held the fire of Earth Star civilization into the distance. "This is my planet, I don't allow others to interfere!" Gaia looked towards the direction where the fragment disappeared and showed a faint smile. The smile is very complicated, with guilt, reluctance, and joy... I hope it will take root again one day in the future, and perhaps, she can return to her people again as the will of the planet... {"TopicId":"847956397190414336","TopicName":"Pulsating Story Solitaire"} {"TopicId":"847956314373750784","TopicName":"Idiom Story Award"} {"TopicId":"849251015949418496","TopicName":"The infinite possibilities of spring"}
Lu Mingzhe fan art
I saw that Lu Mingzhe was gone a few days ago, and I wanted to commemorate it, so I tried to draw the same character as Zhang. I used the enhanced "thunder" character version that combined the "violent" character and the "guang" character (Hey, the picture I imagined in my mind was very good, but the actual performance is a bit unsatisfactory, so let's just take a look) In addition, I hope the author will update more, one update a day is really not enough. I have a weak question, is Lu Mingzhe really dead or will he still have a chance to appear in the future? I quite like him
All characters appear if
Help, I can't draw perspective and the human body I took advantage of the limited exemption and finished reading it in one sitting When I drew some summer huskies, I tried to follow them to hide and was caught on the spot
Li Huachao and Cockroach Girl
Great staying power
Full character design for WoLiu fanart
Drawn the protagonist and everyone in the universe! The automatic lead draft flow is exploiting, sorry for the roughness 🙏 (The original picture cannot be uploaded due to system convulsions, so I changed it to a screenshot, sorry)
An Buchen
Yu Liang, an online novel writer, will definitely use a leave note when downloading copies, even at the beginning of the month, and the daily updates are very short, so he basically eats instant noodles, or a large bowl of takeout (broth vegetarian noodles or simply vegetarian soup noodles) for ten yuan to barely make ends meet. Of course, I have been facing the computer for a long time. Although my glasses are not very short-sighted, in order to fit my identity as a writer, I still wear glasses (flat glasses have no prescription at all, which is ridiculous)
{"TopicId":"771756579455434752","TopicName":"Sand Sculpture Emoticon Pack"}The true face of Li Huachao
In the past, changing the protagonist midway was a taboo. When I saw the character Li Huachao, I felt something was wrong. Then when I played the copy of Rabbit, I couldn't stand it anymore. Biyang's defiant protagonist just sleeps and skips various events, and the whole process is played by Li Huachao, an abstract fun-loving person. So what was the purpose of creating the character Yu Liang? Are you trying to provide a container for Li Huachao, a fun-loving person, to cause trouble? The author's story is over. Would you like to see the author's interpretation of the protagonist through the method of Yu Liang sleeping like 00 and then Li Huachao coming out of the game to appear as a saint in front of human beings? ? Sorry, I really can't accept this setting. I thought it was the protagonist and Kaidan's battle of wits and courage, bringing the Kaidan world into the universe, and then letting the characters go in to explore and discover other secrets hidden in the world that the protagonist has not discovered. I didn't expect to have a job like sleeping and substituting people to do the work. I can only say goodbye by fate😒
Drawed a fanart 😌 If there are any differences from the article, please comment haha, I just relied on my imagination Mainly because I wanted to draw the little paper man, it's so cute
