Never Run Out of Books to Read
A list for anyone who doesn’t want to run out of books to read.
Yinglong's Dark Library Is Open
This is a personal list, powered by love, featuring new releases and ongoing novels. Completed novels will be removed after a while. Please follow and save the list. Lately I've been seeing more fantasy stories about dragons, and finding more interesting books. There have also been more COC steampunk novels lately. I only just noticed that a lot of veteran authors have launched new books. I'm still searching for stories I like. The quality of new releases in Qidian's historical fiction section k

My Reading List, Starting Today
Read books. Read good books. Read books that are fun to read. Read books that still seem good when you revisit them years later. Read books so good you want to finish them in one sitting, and so good you can't wait for the next update.
Books I Read for Myself
A Bookworm’s Smorgasbord
A laid-back list maker who updates whenever the mood strikes. I'll gradually add new books and revise my comments on existing ones. Feel free to drop by often. I'm an older reader with eclectic tastes. I read male- and female-oriented fiction, cultivation, fantasy, historical romance, magic, family intrigue, sci-fi, farming stories, anime-inspired fiction... pretty much anything. Rather than following new books as they come out, I prefer the satisfaction of reading a whole story in one go. So
[The Grand History] My Love Is Called China 🧐
From the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods to the Republic of China era, including alternate-history twists and reimaginings, you'll find it all here. ️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️⚛️ Why do we love historical fiction so much? Because every rabbit has a dream of a great nation in its heart. Listen to the mightiest voice of our magnificent China: “Beneath all heaven, all land belongs to the king; at the shores of the realm, all are the king's subjects.” “I shall be the First Emperor. Let my s
Mostly Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Gaming (I)
A selection of books I think are well written. They may be niche or mainstream, but they should all have a distinctive style or something that sets them apart.
My Taste
Just some books I've picked out from a sea of novels. Some are complete, and others are still updating. This is Xiao Shi Chuang's first reading list. I recommend only one book by each author, either because I think it's good or because I'm currently following it. P.S. I used to read quite a few pirated copies, but fortunately I made up for some of that by buying the authors' new books.

Personal Reading List | A Storehouse of Plot-Driven Reads
I prefer stories focused on careers. The most important thing is an interesting plot, followed by a well-rounded one. Good writing means telling a good story, not piling on fancy words. Multiple heroines or romantic ambiguity are major drawbacks for me, though that doesn't mean the list has none.

Qidian has hundreds of thousands of novels set in modern society, 99% of which feature supernatural powers. Now, the development of these novels is synchronized with modern society, and the final world order is exactly the same—this is absurd.
[New Book Excerpt] "The Ming Dynasty, the New Rome, and Infinite Divine Strategies"
#New Book Preview# [Book Title] The Ming Dynasty, New Rome, and Infinite Divine Strategies [Keywords]: Abstract Cultivation ★ Steampunk ★ Spiritual Energy Revival ★ Modified ★ Humor [Status]: Ongoing **Overall Recommendation Index: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** [Reading Instructions] ✍🏻: A modified version of the Ming Dynasty, where the protagonist rivals Rome and vies for global dominance.
This book... Reads like some kind of Eastern-style Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Steampunk, electric punk, space age, and Western fantasy are blended together in a strange yet harmonious way, creating a very... Interesting worldview and story. Or rather, using the word "unconventional" to describe this book is too simplistic.
Frequently Asked Questions (QA)
Q: Has the author written any books before? Does the author use pseudonyms? A: I did write it, but on another site. I don't have an alternate account on Qidian. Q: How does this book relate to the author's previous works? Is it a sequel? A: It's not a sequel. The plot and characters are unrelated.
Phaethon (demigod)
I checked out another of the author's most famous works. It feels like the world the author depicts is a perfect world with morals and ethical boundaries that even dreamers wouldn't dare imagine. There are occasional bad guys, but they don't detract from this beautiful world; it's quite dreamlike.
Really?
What does it mean to be inspired by the content of this novel, discover a fundamental theoretical gap in the field of artificial intelligence, and thus develop dozens of papers, three of which will be published in top journals?
The character and cultural settings are at least ten or even nine times better than those generic, repackaged works currently on the Qidian rankings.
I was moved to write this after reading the latest chapter.
Shangluo Why can't Apollonia talk to anyone else, and can only talk to you? Why did my body not react at all after eating a lot of spirit root radishes? Why is the Foundation Establishment Pill so powerful when it contains your blood? Why can you, without any cultivation level, solve problems that even Qi cultivators can't solve, and even repair the "Infinite Divine Machine," using "Qi Sensing"?
If I had known it was the author of Conquering Paradise, I wouldn't have passed by the book three times without going in. 😢
