Books Hui Meng Has Been Following Lately
These are the books I've been following lately. They're all different genres and picked entirely according to my own tastes. Most are new or early-stage books, so please don't be harsh if they're not for you. If you know any good ones, feel free to recommend them! I've recently started working, so I may have less time to read. Updates to the list may be sporadic.
New-Release Fanatic (Also Recommending Older Books; Please Favorite and Follow~)
As long as I live, I'll keep testing books. As long as Qidian stays open, I'll keep updating this list. I haven't been reading much lately, and I'm pretty picky. My reviews may be slow too, ✍🏻️, but every book I recommend is still carefully chosen. Sometimes, when people look for something to read, they notice something strange: everyone's out of books, yet they still ask each other for recommendations. Isn't this way of huddling together for warmth kind of fun~ I think it's the words that br

No Holds Barred (Xianxia, Western Fantasy, Lovecraftian Horror, Urban, Gaming, and Anime)
The first book is what I'm currently reading. Updated whenever. I add just one book per author: the first book by that author that I read. For each type of fanfiction, I only feature one title, with the rest listed below. So far I've read Harry Potter, One Piece, Naruto, Detective Conan, and more. Updated whenever I think of it. Some picks are niche, and some are just personal favorites. There are plenty of gripes and personal opinions, so take them with a grain of salt. After all, tastes differ
Reading Slump Rescue | Lighthearted, Slice of Life, Hidden Gems
A list to keep myself entertained when I'm short on books. Preferences: fresh, interesting worldbuilding and smooth prose. No brainless womanizer stories. P.S. I'm back from hanging out on JJ. Time to start browsing books again!
A Collection of Personal Tastes
I’m especially fond of wish-fulfillment novels with no female lead or just one female lead.
Professional Niche Fiction
Mostly niche, lesser-known stories about specific professions
Currently Reading
I’ve been reading web novels for over ten years, so I suppose I count as a veteran. Everything here is something I’ve read, am following, have finished, or have added to keep an eye on because of its reputation. These are all books I personally consider worth reading. If a book doesn’t meet that standard, I won’t add it. So this list has just three ratings: Worth Reading, Decent, and Excellent. The blurbs will probably reflect my personal preferences, so they aren’t entirely objective. This is p

🔥 A Roundup of Entertainment Novels 🔥
Entertainment-industry novels I’m currently reading. Updated from time to time. If you’re into the same thing, stop by and follow! Flowers 🌹 and likes 👍 are much appreciated!!

I haven’t gotten around to removing them yet; I’ll tidy up the list when I have time.)
Books I Like with Smooth Writing (Mostly Just Fun)
Discovering interesting books, discovering interesting souls. (First, the writing has to be decent. Then, the premise, story, or author has to be interesting. Someone once said, “If the world is boring, I’d rather not live in it.” May we all have interesting souls.)
Novels I Think Are Pretty Good (Trying Out New Releases)
A bit of everything. Just read for fun.

🎶Books I've Actually Read Before Adding Them Here🎶
Books I can generally get through. I only add books I’ve actually read. I don’t want to feel like the book is insulting my intelligence. I prefer lighthearted stories, games, urban fiction, ghosts, and novels about anime, manga, and entertainment. I’m done with stories that are nothing but fighting, leveling up, and repeating the same cycle forever. Pet-beast battles are fine, though. But don’t blame me if a book goes on hiatus or has a terrible ending. Take it up with the author. I’ll send a kn

Lighthearted Novels
Maybe I’m getting older. I’m not into fighting and killing anymore, and prefer something light and relaxing, so I read a lot of urban entertainment stories. I’m also tired of elaborate schemes and plots. They’re exhausting. Most of these books have one heroine or none at all. I’m out of things to read. My bookshelf is packed, but I only open three books each day: Super Dimensional Wizard, The Meow of Words Takes Shape, and Embers Ad Infinitum. Otherwise, I revisit old favorites. I’m thinking of
Truth: The Educated Youth Returns (Entertainment Industry Through Plagiarism)
I mainly share novels centered on copying works or the entertainment industry. If you know any books like these, please recommend them in the comments. And feel free to follow and save the list. I’ll update it from time to time!

I don't understand why a copywriter is being pretentious. It's not you who wrote it.
Hahaha, the protagonist just deceives outsiders to get money. Why does it feel like he has been deceived? I'm just curious about one thing. When the protagonist's future wife and children look at the talented protagonist with admiration, will the protagonist feel ashamed?
To be honest, this article is my ideal type of copywriting, but it is not about copying something that will make me famous or make money, but what happened to me and what I felt, and I want to pass this feeling on to others. Loneliness, nostalgia, feelings, from being incompatible with this era, to having a nail to anchor this world, it really feels good. I am used to seeing all kinds of provocative, domineering, arrogant and arrogant copycats, none of which are written straight out of the mouth, and all kinds of articles are broken down because of the theme of the competition. At least this is an article that I think will be naturally expressed based on the feelings I encounter, rather than written for something.
Don't understand
The copy of the copy goes to the brain, is it self-impressed? If you really want to write about literati, why not be original and copy it in a pretentious way?
The author must have offended someone. Reading a novel, a group of people still want to ask the author to write a literary masterpiece. Now the requirements for authors are so high?
After reading the chapter about disqualification in the world, let's talk about this book. Not like a novel, but like a collection of reflections on Japanese classics. The first three chapters are good. There are stories, plots, and conflicts. The protagonist wants to contribute to improve his life, and he specifically chose the Snow Country. Then one of the unique pretentiousnesses of the literary youth who are addicted to human food begins - writing about loneliness... Without the "sadness and loneliness" writing power, the end result of writing about an independent protagonist is that the protagonist quickly becomes a symbol, without even a sporadic sense of substitution. The protagonist no longer has any desire or subjective initiative for wealth, life, fame and wealth, so what are we, the common people, looking for? Do we think literary youths will become hysterical? The protagonist and the editor talk in a cloudy way. They should live in books and prose, not the real world in the book. Do literary giants have to be so literary and pretentious? Brother Xun also had an interesting story about "I bought Lao Zhang's book for my mother, and I hurriedly explained it when I met a friend." However, there is no trace of humanity in the protagonist, which seems to be a symbol of a collection of thoughts after reading. But it feels good to skip all the dialogue chapters between the protagonist and the editor, or the protagonist's chapters, and only look at the side descriptions.
Maybe it's because I like it or not, but I don't like it. I haven't read much, but I feel like it's pretentious. To tell the truth, you are just a literary copycat. You are not the original author. You act like you are the original author and deliberately rely on your mood to speak. There are many things that are said to be good. They are not just white articles. They show that they are advanced. In the final analysis, they are just time-traveling literary copywriters. Don't deal with those vain people.
No malice, I simply want to ask the protagonist why a plagiarist is so depressed as a literati? Why does he act like he's not seeking fame or fortune even though he's doing things that are going to jail in the modern era? Why are you copying books when you are so hesitant to just wait until death?
As a recommended book list for modern Japanese literature, it is qualified. As for the author's post-reading feelings expressed through the readers' supporting characters, there are more private goods. Just ignore it. What you should read when reading is the original work itself, not some nondescript Douyin or B station introduction. The starting point is also the starting point. In terms of plot paragraphs, after the actual ending of "Snow Country", the full text ends just right; at most, it would be superfluous to arrange for the protagonist to commit suicide after the publication of "Disqualification in the World". In the routine, there is the possibility of writing a unit sketch like "Late Night Canteen". Maybe it is due to the writing power, maybe it is to cater to the taste of Qidian readers, but it fell apart. Although it is a pity, it is also expected. Finally, the book "Disqualification in the World" should never be recommended to young literary readers.
First of all, for some malicious complaints about the main character who is clearly a copycat and pretends to be a copycat. If you don't like reading, you can leave, but if you insist on complaining, then you are not here to read, you are here to cause trouble. In fact, the author's attitude is really not very good recently. At first, he updated twice a day, and then once a day. In the past, he was missing one update a day, and he even apologized and explained the reason. Now, he is missing one update a day, and he doesn't even say anything. It is estimated that the author no longer wants to write a book, and it is unlikely that this book will be completed.
