A Maiden's Prayer in Progress... (Mostly Light Novels)
This list features books I consider worth reading. Rating criteria: - Three tiers: decent reads, good reads, and masterpieces. - Each tier has finer “-” and “+” levels. A “+” rating in the good-read tier is roughly equal to a “-” rating in the masterpiece tier. - To earn masterpiece status, a book must reach an exceptional level in at least one area. When rating a book, I prioritize its strengths, and only then consider its shortcomings.
Ji Caihua's Reading List
I haven't read many, but I'm here to show a little support.
Mostly Invincible, No Protagonist Torture, Game Worlds
I'm getting old, and can't stand seeing the protagonist abused or crippled. I mainly recommend some light reads I've enjoyed recently, with smooth writing and few major toxic elements. Tastes differ, so help yourself if these appeal to you.

The author's way of shaping the characters is really good. I didn't have much interest in Meng Dezhi before. However, in the author's writing, the character of the wife was created very well. It is not the kind of hypocritical perfection that can be broken at once, but it is embellished with some flaws. Specifically, it is a series of small moves made by the protagonist, and only the wife can catch them It is a match made in heaven Especially the misunderstanding that the wife's daughter directly thinks of the protagonist as her stepfather but the wife has no idea about it is even better It can not only adjust the rhythm of the plot, improve the perception of reading, but also make the audience happy to hear it. Otherwise, why would it be completely one-sided to say that there are only ladies in it? So, as for the author, when did you change the female supporting role to the female protagonist?
Actually speaking, I still prefer the Player's Guide to this one, well... I always feel that the Guide is more enjoyable, more serious, more explosive, and full of expectations... Of course, the problems with that book are obvious, right? Of course, this book is also very good. To be honest, I think the quality of the author's works is completely qualified to be on the list. In my opinion, it is one of the few works nowadays that is not exaggerated, or can express very exaggerated things in a very sincere way. I look forward to the day when you can become a god with a book. I believe that day will not be too far away.
The writing style and initial character design were quite good, and the beginning was quite attractive, but after it was released, the whole thing was messed up. One of them was a straight-forward Cao thief story on the surface, but in fact, they were all virgins. It was inexplicable that I was so obsessed with writing about Cao thief. The other one was that the order of priority was messed up. The plot advancement and combat power growth were almost blocked by the emotional line. Moved it aside. The combat power system has collapsed since the "Mysterious Knight". Most of the plot is about how to wander around a few women who must be his, but I dare not write it in depth. The emotional line is also a long and straight road without any fluctuations. Seeing that the protagonist is "forced" to accept his daughter's confession, I abandoned it here.
It would be better to change the title of the book and call it a collection of forbidden loves. Before charging, it is an excellent fantasy novel. After charging, it is a third-rate ambiguous novel.
I thought that magic + industrial revolution, the man behind the title of the book, would have a magnificent story, but what happened? After I started subscribing, I misunderstood one incident after another. The writing was too heavy on ambiguity with women, there was no exploration of the world, and there were no ups and downs of major events. A small matter requires five or six chapters. A little family spirit.
There are a lot of trainees in the comment area who are complaining, and they don't spend a dime. There are quite a few opinions
It's too messy, it's too messy, it makes my head hurt, it's so inconsistent to force the female protagonist to be a virgin, just one or two, it's too stupid if they are all married and still virgins. A beefcake and pure love are two completely different things, but the author just made it up into such a nondescript plot. The more I read, the more inconsistent it becomes, and it is completely impossible to substitute.
This book is already a eunuch, please enter with caution (fuck, my money)
After reading Chapter 138, let's briefly talk about my feelings First of all, let's talk about the advantages: the emotional lines of the characters are delicate, and the relationship between the characters is well handled. If you read it patiently, you can clearly feel the author's handling of the characters' emotions Let's talk about the shortcomings: The introduction and the content are completely inconsistent. It is basically the advancement of the emotional line, and there is basically no main line advancement Mistakes Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings, everyone is just making up their minds. The advancement of the plot is all based on imagination and misunderstandings. There is no communication, and people who watch it have a toothache. It is obviously a very simple thing, but a lot of nonsense is dragged out. The sea, you are all water It feels like there is no main line. I even feel that the author has not written an outline. The protagonist is completely pushed by the plot and has no goals and motivation for what he wants to do br> The positioning of the protagonist is confusing. A novice apprentice has been involved in the battle between the bosses. After looking at the back, it has been more than 300 chapters. The protagonist is still a low-level wizard... I am speechless😑 Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is uncomfortable to watch. It is obviously a top-level result and you can't feel it at all. The plot is confusing as hell, and the level of strength is not explained Event It's too dense, and more than 100 chapters were written in less than 2 months. The protagonist didn't stop for a moment to gather his thoughts, and his level of strength and positioning were not clear... His conversations with his wife were also secretive.
Looking at it now, I feel that this book has not officially entered the main plot, and is full of ambiguities. In comparison, I prefer the author's last book, which is the Player's Guide, especially the plot where the Demon King comes to the world, the sun falls into the clouds, and the spear of destiny is stained with blood, which impressed me even more. Even the fear of being painfully calculated still showed his grace as the Demon King. Originally, I was still looking forward to the big scene of the Kingdom of Heaven falling, but the author's outline was missing, which is really regrettable. But now that the author has written it, I feel that the author relies purely on his own writing. The plot can be said to be better than nothing. I plan to wait for when the first demon wave starts, and then come back when (or when the second sacrifice starts), then kick me (ps: I really like the author's books, but I'm really not interested in the current plot. I'd better read the author's last player's guide to pass the time. In short, I'll put the book on the bookshelf first and come back after a while)
