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 I only recommend the ones I'm following, so please keep in mind that the list may be out of date.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

The book is alright, but the author's track record is terrifying...
This book's sophisticated level of pretentiousness is exactly what I wanted. It's rare to subscribe to the whole book.
I read it smoothly and felt like I wanted more. I liked this book; it was slow-paced but not bland. It was like eating too much evaporated milk with MSG and then suddenly tasting the delicious flavor of good ingredients cooked with salt.
Duke, the highest rank of nobility (excluding royal dukes, also known as grand dukes), there are 24 in total. They are ranked according to the time of acquisition. Specifically— 24th, Duke of Fife. 120-Year history, Scottish nobleman. 23Rd, the Duke of Westminster. A major landowner with countless properties around the world, owning a quarter of London's land.
The protagonist becoming a senator is a complete misstep, bringing only disadvantages and no advantages whatsoever. If the protagonist were caught having multiple relationships, the public would say he's young, wealthy, and charming; but if he were a senator? It would be a sex scandal.
Personally, I think it's really unnecessary to gamble with 2 million yuan and 55 times leverage. If you win the gamble, it just makes an already wealthy family a little richer, but if something unexpected happens, they might go bankrupt. The risks and rewards are completely disproportionate. Finally, given that the protagonist was reborn into that era, he had status, capital, and countless opportunities to make money. There was really no need for him to gamble; it would be extremely unwise.
Do you have any similar novel recommendations? These kinds of novels are rare these days.
After its release, the average daily subscription reached 2000, surpassing 70% of authors on Qidian. With this success, the author started taking frequent breaks and wasting time. In the five months since the book's launch, only 300,000 words have been written – pure laziness. Qidian should implement a real-name registration system for author accounts.
You're short of money, and you could earn more with the money you have, yet you choose to give it to your mother? Or did your mother not want to give it to you, but you insisted on giving it to her? Are you an illegitimate child? Will your mother still have money after her marriage? You can earn more yourself and are still short of money, so why give it to her? Is it just because the author wants to create the image of a strong mother and a weak son?
Young Connery and Connery in A Beautiful Mind are both incredibly beautiful. I support them!
