Great Reads, No Mindless Novels for Beginners
I’ve read countless books on Qidian and hit more land mines than I can count. Every time I get blown up, I wish someone had warned me ahead of time. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a book-list feature back then, so I had to test each book myself, one painful read at a time... I’ve read every book on this list, and there’s absolutely no brainless amateur fluff. I hope you enjoy them. Here’s my rule for recommendations: I generally don’t recommend ongoing books with fewer than 500,000 words. Getting
My List of Books for Female Readers
A guy so desperate for something to read that he started checking out female-oriented novels. Leaving a paw print to remember it.
Great Books I've Read in the Past Two Years
There are stories set in both ancient and modern times, some about the powerful elite and others about ordinary people. Most seem to have a couple. Life is hard, so let's have something sweet, hehe.
🍧🍧 In My Leisure Hours, I Sit Quietly Through the Years with a Beautiful Book in Hand
On a quiet holiday, a pot of tea and a book, with peaceful days stretching on. 🔥🔥🔥 I recommend I Have No Interest in Romance as a Socially Awkward Person. I can't believe adding this book made the list fail review. That's so weird, which means I definitely have to keep it 😈😈😈

No angst. There are bold and imposing characters, easygoing ones, and warmhearted ones. No holier-than-thou saints or fake sweethearts.

Ye Yi's Reading List
I’ve been reading web novels since 2003. I lost access to my old account, so I made this list to keep track of what I’ve been reading lately. I only recommend books I think are genuinely worth reading. I leave out the ones I read just to kill time.
Books I've Read and Subscribed To
I went from being a novice reader to running out of books to read. The books on this list are ones I’m currently following and subscribing to. Sometimes I add a book to my bookshelf and then to this list, but if I later decide it isn’t worth subscribing to, I’ll remove it from my bookshelf and from the list too. So this list may change pretty often.
Hilarious Reads
I like uplifting books with no awful characters, the kind that keep you hooked and make you happy. I've slowly recorded these books so I can revisit them, and I'm sharing them with everyone!

It's quite enjoyable to read slowly. A rare find, refreshing. However, I don't really like the male lead's character. Rebirth plus time travel, the mother-in-law knows everything. It feels like a person's secret is a secret, existing only between the protagonist and the reader. Adding the male lead's family makes it feel cheap.
There's too much psychological drama, to the point that it affects the story's flow.
I feel the female lead is unworthy of the male lead; he's practically perfect, and the female lead's occasional overly dramatic behavior is cringe-worthy.
What I really wanted to see was a story of clarity—a story about not being swayed by capital, but about acting peacefully and living authentically. But now, it's all about chasing after so-called fashion resources, endorsements, and variety shows. So where is the clarity in the female lead's writing? Is avoiding romance, not being a mistress, and avoiding bad works considered clarity? This superficial so-called clarity—how is it any different from other entertainment novels?
Well written, with a very positive outlook. I wonder how old the author is; they seem to have a lot of insights into life. 😊 The character settings are also quite interesting. Although there are some minor flaws, they don't detract from the overall excellence. And it's so sweet! I'm practically beaming with pride, haha.
If you don't understand how the recommendation mechanism works, and if you're getting recommendations from various male-oriented content, you can check out the author's notes. Whether you read the book or not is up to you. Please don't click through, because it's a female-oriented novel with a female protagonist. It's like, "How is this a female-oriented novel? A male reader like me is being recommended a female-oriented novel?..."
Is this genuine clarity or selective clarity?
At first, I thought the female lead had very positive values. Later, I just thought she was being pretentious; if she has to solve everything herself, what's the point of finding a partner? Is this some kind of "widowed-style" relationship? The male lead is sometimes useful and sometimes not.
Please take a good look at it.
I really couldn't stand it and it made me so upset that I wrote a chapter to talk about it. If you, author, disagree, just consider this a fart I uttered. The front looks energetic and comfortable. The previous text also stated that "exes should die." Later, they encountered a woman named Bai who was being malicious. The female lead immediately contacted Jiang's ex-boyfriend.
I really like this work; the author's values are very positive. 🙂
The book is good, but it's so long!
I feel like I don't have much patience left. I've been reading for a long time and I'm only halfway through. I'm losing interest in the later chapters. But it's well-written. There's no love-struck narcissism, no doting wife, and the plot is engaging. The female lead is a great character. For someone like me who procrastinates and likes to just lie around, she's exactly the kind of person I aspire to be, and I know I'll never change.
