🌱 Old Bookworms' Ranting Club 🌱 Urban Stories, Family Cultivation!
A veteran bookworm with over twenty years of reading! In 2003, wuxia was king. I discovered Liang, Jin, and Gu, and Jin Yong became my favorite! In 2005, web novels took off. I started with the ordinary man's The Sword Immortal, then read the pioneering Journey to the Ethereal Realm. From cultivation to fantasy, online games, urban fiction, and history, I still love cultivation most! This list is mostly a way to vent the negative feelings I get from reading, and to record my reading history! Boo

I mainly recommend stories with smart characters, strong writing, invincible protagonists, reborn characters, sci-fi, fantasy, and promising new works. Basically, anything I personally enjoy goes on the list. I'm not great at recommending books and won't write much in the way of reviews, but everything here is something I can keep reading.

Jojo2ray's Reading List
Light pages, a faint scent of ink, threads of affection, and one extraordinary romance after another. Within books lies a house of gold; within books lies a beauty like jade.

A Reading List for a Veteran Reader in a Reading Slump
I've been reading for ten or twenty years, and I used to follow the big-name authors too. But these days, very few books still suit my taste. I'm sharing some that I particularly like or am currently reading. No hard feelings if they're not your thing.
Lighthearted Reads
In the midst of a busy life, you need to leave yourself a little window for escapist daydreams, to ease the social pressures that come with getting older.
Hundred-Grass Garden Bookshop
There are fewer and fewer books worth reading these days. I've checked these out, and they're to my taste. I'll keep updating the list. P.S. I mainly read alternate-history urban entertainment and industrial fiction.
【Powerful, Mind-Blowing Great Books】
A good book needs great ideas, writing, and originality. None can be missing. The impact a book leaves is rated from one to ten hot dogs. The more hot dogs, the more powerful the impact.

There is no sense of historical writing at all. In 1987, a set of modular cabinets cost 1,200. I'm afraid you want to eat it... I think some people want it for 120. To be honest, in that era, it was very good for rural people to have a net income of more than 100 a year...
I personally feel that this novel is well written, but the era is not right. The author probably has not experienced the 1980s and 1990s. It is best to check the information or ask the elders at home. I am a carpenter. I was born in 1979. My home is on the edge of the national highway. It cannot be considered remote. In the 1980s, it was Not to mention electric planers, not many electric lights were available at that time, and the electricity bill was very expensive at that time. One kilo of electricity could buy half a pound of pork. It was difficult to eat meat at that time, let alone use electricity, and you needed a ticket to buy anything. Otherwise, you couldn't buy meat if you had money. It was easy to sell the extra things. It was a bartering method. I became an apprentice at the age of 16. It was a three-year apprenticeship at that time. I had no money, but I could eat with the master. At that time, there were no electric planers or gypsum boards. I first saw gypsum boards in 1999 at a construction site in Wuhan. I first saw an electric planer in 2000. The first time I saw TV in the countryside was in 1995. It was still black and white. Bicycles required a ticket in 1990 and were only sold in the county. Moreover, it didn't cost much to build a house at that time. At that time, a piece of red brick only cost one or two centimeters. The house my family built in 1995 only cost more than 5,000 yuan, which was two hundred square meters.
Author, your economy is too collapsed and the social situation is unreasonable Hubei 1996 Small workers on construction sites cost 5 yuan a day, large workers 10 yuan 1992 A women's bicycle 300-350 yuan 1990 The cost of a tile-roofed house with three rooms and one main room is about 2,500 (mostly with the help of clan members from the same village). In addition to materials and food expenses The author's set of modular cabinets cost 1,200 (in 1988), which is a bit too much. In small counties, they are usually custom-made. The labor and materials are priced at 300 (ordinary materials cannot be used yet). They were all hand saws (big and small). My uncle was a carpenter at the time, and he had two apprentices by himself (no wages, and he had to pay for apprenticeships. When the income was good, he would only give some red envelopes, but food was included) And at that time, all the woodworking materials were collected by himself (it was difficult to collect trees in nearby villages, and when there was no work, he would go out to farm) In addition, there was no paint at that time, so the logs were painted with tung oil There is also the village party secretary who wants to marry his daughter into the city (this is a dream). In 1988, the urban household registration was very popular, and he wanted a betrothal gift. It was good without any money (urban household registration is usually only for those with some flaws, and second marriage, no matter how good-looking the girl is). Because there is no job in the city if you have a rural household registration (coastal areas are better, don't even think about it in the mainland) When I saw the chapter about the chainsaw, I really wanted to complain
Nowadays, when writing chronicle articles, there is no need to look up information at all? It's not just any poison, it's extremely poisonous. In 1988, my salary was only a few dozen yuan a month. At that time, you could sell it for 1,200, which is about the same as selling it for 20,000 or 300,000 now.
A set of furniture cost more than a thousand dollars. Who would buy it in those days? . . At that time, wealthy people would hire masters to make furniture at their homes.
If you introduce your daughter-in-law to others as a bitch... Resign yourself!
I started to watch it patiently, but I really couldn't stand it! It's really hard to find a good period article!
It's really ridiculous to sell cabinets at the beginning. I feel like this is a pretentious novel. In those days, selling a home for 1,200 yuan was really a pretentious novel. Three to five hundred is considered expensive. It's boring to read and I don't even understand the prices. The most annoying thing is that it's either three days or a day or a week to earn thousands. It's true or false. Earning money varies by place and age, all of which makes the protagonist show off.
He turned around and started talking nonsense. It is understandable that the author has not experienced that era, but if you haven't experienced it, wouldn't you ask the elders in your family? I couldn't even stand the first chapter. First point, the novel is set in Northern Jiangsu, but the dialogue between the characters is like a Beijing movie. Second point, the brighter the furniture in that era, the better. If you had to make it out of raw wood, it would still be fashionable. It was so fashionable. The third point about the betrothal gift, I just asked my mother. They are from northern Jiangsu and got married in 1991. In that era, there was no saying about how much the betrothal gift should be. When buying clothes, sewing machines, bicycles and TVs as betrothal gifts, there was no direct payment. I just saw this and didn't read the rest. Anyway, I can't stand this kind of tricking people into selling dog meat.
This year was the author born? What defense did you write? What era was that? Will you give me 1,000 as a bride price? How much does it cost to make a cabinet? Or a village? Talent
