Premium Picks: No Mediocre Reads
A stubborn stone may nod, but it will never be fine jade; a withered tree may bloom again, but it will never become a pillar. To speak of ice to summer insects is to waste your breath; to play a lute to a cow is to waste your effort.

The Three-Flower Cat's Study
The comments on this list reflect only my personal impressions. If you disagree, I agree with you, because sometimes I look back and disagree with my own comments too. Some books start strong but fall apart later. I'm also pretty lazy, and editing the list means waiting for approval. Going back and forth is too much trouble, so I'll just leave it as is.
Decent Enough to Read
These are books I've read and thought were pretty good. I don't like stories that try too hard to look cool. Substance matters, and the plot has to make sense. The author matters too, of course. I'm in a reading slump lately. If you've come across any good books, please recommend them. Thanks! So many books on the charts lately are comedy stories full of silly characters, or shallow wish-fulfillment tales about leveling up and fighting monsters. Even the xianxia stories I love have mostly turned
Top Picks! Great Writing, No Beginner-Level Prose
This list collects quality novels with polished writing and plots that avoid the usual clichés, as well as some classic older works! Those classics will naturally have flaws if judged by today's standards, so if you're just looking to nitpick, don't bother. I'll occasionally reorganize the list based on title length and publication date.

A Personal Selection of Miscellaneous Reads, Mostly with Long Reviews
The novels here span a variety of genres, covering almost every section. Most were added when they were new, so they're not very long. Most of my reviews are long-form. I share a reader's perspective on the strengths and weaknesses I noticed while reading.
A Letter to Ease the Sleepless
Books are like wine: fragrant, strong, or rich. Their contents give them a mellow depth. Books are like songs: soaring, subdued, or sorrowful. Their contents make them sweet to the ear. Books are like paintings: vivid, dim, or understated. Their contents make them beautiful.
Books That Have Kept Me Company Through the Years
My tastes are pretty eclectic, and I feel like I've become pickier over the years. These are novels I've stuck with for a long time, along with a few that hold a special place in my heart.

The character settings and plot background are quite good, but the writing style is really hard to handle. Aren't there too many long, complex sentences, adjectives, and descriptive phrases? It's really tiring for my eyes to read.
Well, the beginning was great, but most of the descriptions in the book focused on the protagonist's understanding of Tao and Dharma. Once or twice was fine, but there was too much of it, my friend. It was all like that later on, and I got tired of it. After reading more than 800 chapters, I really couldn't continue.
Now most people understand why traditional cultivation novels, even if well-written, struggle to become popular. There are tons of people who say they love these stories and the writing style, but then they see the incredibly low character levels. Traditional cultivation novels are practically a direct hit to the poor.
Having read over two hundred chapters, these disciples of great sects don't seem like geniuses (they can't all be outstanding in cultivation while being terrible at everything else). The protagonist's talent is so over-the-top it's like he's the main character; his cultivation techniques are a hodgepodge, though of high grade.
There are just too many details about cultivation; it's not only confusing, but it's also incredibly, incredibly, incredibly, incredibly long. I can't keep going.
To be honest, the results would definitely be much better if it were in plain language. Reading this book reminded me of analyzing long and complex sentences.
This is an excellent classic fantasy novel. Having read novels for so many years, I knew it was a classic fantasy from the initial description of *Yu Sha*, and I never expected to find such a gem. After all, most novels these days prioritize fast-paced, enjoyable reading, so it's extremely rare to see one so meticulously crafted in terms of characters, plot, and background.
The writing is decent, but perhaps it shouldn't be so terrible, especially the later parts about the three disciples of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, which feel like they have a collecting obsession. The first disciple in the later part is also disgusting; the master-disciple relationship is so strained, don't they even consider the impact? 😅
It's definitely a good book, but after reading so many light novels, reading this was a bit tiring 😂
Wasted money
I stopped reading this book when the Dragon King gave me the medicine and I almost ate myself to death. I felt nothing for a moment. Damn it, I forgot to turn off auto-subscription and ended up subscribing directly to "The Helmsman."
