Best Picks in Showbiz and Period Fiction (Updated 2026-10-28)
A list of entertainment novels I'm following. If you like this genre, give them a try. I often check the rankings. This genre is relatively easy for new authors to write, but competition is fierce too. I update regularly, so keep an eye on changes to the list's title.

This book is addictive! I actually had a great time listening to those old songs while reading it 😂
Hahahaha, author, do you know I was laughing like a baby the whole time I read this book late at night?! I was so afraid my laughter would wake my roommates! Update soon!!! I can't get enough! Hahahaha!
Author, you chose the right songs, but have you considered that you mostly picked widely popular ones? These kinds of songs don't really distinguish between classic and corny. Seriously, some songs might seem corny to modern people, but think about it: if they appeared in modern times, I reckon they'd still be popular. Not for any other reason than those simple, catchy lyrics, they'd be a hit.
My current perception of the problematic aspects: 1: Husky Vest: The Masked Singer contestants will be unmasked after the finals. You can create your own aliases on Weibo privately. These people who have performed on stage are really dangerous; they're even invited to sing in Hong Kong while wearing masks. 2: That female celebrity from Peninsula, I find this a bit strange.
If the Chinese music scene were to regress by 20 years, such a good thing would happen.
There's no need to use the "praise then condemnation" tactic every time to highlight a satisfying moment; it's become meaningless after a while. Zhao Mo already has so many chart-topping songs and has made so many people famous. Even if haters try to belittle her, it's pointless, doesn't shake anything, and doesn't make any sense.
It's supposed to be a parallel universe, but suddenly having a few real-world people's names thrown in is pretty disgusting. I'm arguing, you're absolutely right.
A first-rate idea, a second-rate fast-paced, enjoyable story, and a third-rate plot and writing style. It's a pity, the idea of old songs from the old era is very good, and it is also the main source of the current success. However, the plot's exciting elements are too clichéd, and the opening is extremely similar to another popular entertainment book by a famous author, yet it falls short of…
This book should be titled "Reading Me Will Give You Embarrassment Cancer"; it features a song called "Seeking Buddha"; the director and screenwriters collectively time-traveled; they call "Seeking Buddha" a cheesy love song because it's been around for a long time; when it first came out, the first reaction was one of delight, not collective condemnation.
I hate people who use multiple accounts to show off. Goodbye.
