The Best of Entertainment and Period Dramas (Updated July 14, 2026)
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.
Curing a Reading Slump
0. Running out of books to read is really painful. I hope I can help fellow readers find some relief. 1. This list is updated from time to time. 2. Some books may become less engaging later on, but I added them because they made me fall in love at first sight, so I won't remove them. 3. My tastes are all over the place, so this list isn't limited to any particular genre or set of genres. 4. I hope there will always be novels I can enjoy wholeheartedly. 5. No female-oriented fiction or romance. 6
An Old Reader's Collection, Updated Irregularly
I've been reading web novels for over a decade. The first one I read was Kunlun, in a wuxia magazine. This list recommends novels of all genres, with short reviews.
A Veteran Reader's Picks
Finding books these days is like panning for gold in a pile of crap. I'm making this list to collect books I personally find readable, as a rough first cut. They might not be exactly to your taste, but at least they aren't crap.

Test the poison, brothers of ambrosia
The preparation in the early stage was a bit long. A movie and the construction of the framework went to 60+ chapters, and I gave up twice in the middle. Later, I didn't have any books to read, so I reluctantly read the free chapters. I didn't expect that the more I went on, the more I imagined. It was smarter than most novels written by China Entertainment. There has never been an author who can stuff so many small movies into one universe and adapt it in a logical and self-consistent way.
Latest compilation in 2025 I spent more than a month searching the information of more than 1,000 female stars and came up with the following list of female stars. Divide the first, second and third tier stars according to each age group. See if any of the female celebrities you are familiar with are on the list. 👤🆔{"NickName":"Supervision and Restriction","UserId":406440657}
Most entertainment novels have a very big loophole. It is written that the protagonist can remember all the scenes and lines of the movies he watched in his previous life, and can remember the scores and lyrics of all the songs he has listened to. Then the protagonist can become an actor, singer or director. If the protagonist really has such a strong memory, the protagonist has copied dozens of books that are best-selling all over the world, and there are countless opportunities to make money such as futures and foreign exchange speculation at various points in time. People's time and energy are extremely limited, and they will definitely spend all their time and energy on these opportunities that can make them rich. Look at the rebirths of other urban life novels. They all spent a lot of time and energy running their businesses to become tens of billions or hundreds of billions. There is no way you would waste your time becoming an actor, singer or director in the first place! If the author writes that the protagonist becomes a billionaire or a billionaire, and then becomes an actor, singer or director, the novel will not be as exciting. It will be as ridiculous as if you were to farm with a golden hoe! So smart writers who write entertainment novels deliberately set the protagonist to be either a time traveler or a native, and then set the protagonist to have an entertainment system, so the protagonist enters the entertainment industry. Even if the protagonist is set to be reborn through time travel, the protagonist's memory will be deliberately set to be very average, and he will not remember the opportunities for making money in the future, nor the specific content of the novels and movies he read in his previous life. Then, it is set that the protagonist has an entertainment system, and he will naturally enter the entertainment industry to become an actor, singer or director. If the protagonist is reborn in time travel and has a good family condition, but does not have a memory golden finger and cannot remember the future fortune opportunities and the specific content of best-selling books and film and television dramas, then the protagonist can open an entertainment company and buy the copyrights of novels with film and game adaptation value in advance. Other film and television companies or game companies will naturally look to you to cooperate if they want to make movies, TV series or develop games. In this way, you can free ride and develop contacts and resources in the entertainment and game industries. It is simply impossible for the protagonist to become an actor, singer or director by himself. It is simply a waste of time. People's time and energy are very limited. If you spend time being an actor, singer or director, you will not have time to run your own company. The funniest thing is that many authors assume that the protagonist has a super memory golden finger or has a good family condition, and then actually writes the protagonist to be an actor, singer or director. As an actor or director, it takes several months to produce a movie or TV series. The scale of creating artistic value is far less than that of a film and television entertainment company tycoon. On the contrary, being an actor, singer or director is more tiring and hard than being an entertainment tycoon. An actor who is a little bit ambitious needs to fully mobilize his emotions when performing many scenes, which is very tiring! Some people need to lose weight crazily or gain weight crazily for a week for the plot, etc., Which is very harmful to the body. If you are filming a martial arts scene, you must first become familiar with it and practice the martial arts movements repeatedly. It is also more tiring to use wires. You may have to use wires for a day after shooting. I often shoot winter scenes in summer and summer scenes in winter, and have to soak in dirty water. Celebrities' usual words and deeds, walking postures, movements, etc., If you don't pay attention, you may be criticized by the public. Celebrities often have full announcement schedules and irregular life schedules. In addition, as an actor or singer, you have to accept the comments of all audiences, just like a monkey for people to watch. The protagonist obviously has such good conditions, but he still wants to be an actor, singer or director. This is just as funny as if you have the conditions to easily become a real estate tycoon, and then you work as plasterer every day, but you feel that the value you create is greater than that of the real estate tycoon. I have no objection to the author writing that the protagonist becomes an actor, singer or director, but I object to the author writing that the protagonist has a super memory golden finger or has a good family condition and becomes an actor, singer or director. If the author wants to write about the protagonist to be an actor, singer or director, he must not set the protagonist to have a super memory golden finger or have a good family condition. You can set the protagonist to have an entertainment system. The system will provide the protagonist with scripts or songs, and also improve the protagonist's professional skills, such as improving the protagonist's director skills, actor acting skills, screenwriting skills, composition and arrangement skills, singing skills, etc. If the author doesn't like system writing, he can set up a player in the protagonist's mind that can play future songs and film and television works. The protagonist then goes to school to learn directing skills, screenwriting skills, composition and arrangement skills, singing skills, etc., And then copies the contents of the player. You can also set the protagonist to dream of the entire content of a certain movie, TV series or song in the future only when sleeping or occasionally dreaming, and after waking up, he can remember the entire content of just one movie or song. Wait until the next time you occasionally dream, then you can open up the next opportunity The following are some reasonable setting combinations If the protagonist is an actor, singer, director, etc., 1. Poor + time-travel rebirth (memory is average, cannot remember future opportunities to make a fortune, film and television scripts, etc.) + System (provides scripts, songs, improves professional skills) 2. Poor + time-travel rebirth (memory is average, cannot remember future opportunities to make a fortune, film and television scripts, etc.) 3 , Aboriginal poor + system (providing scripts, songs, improving professional skills) If you write the protagonist to be an entertainment tycoon 1. Poor + have a super memory golden finger 2. Superior family + time travel and rebirth (memory is average, cannot remember future opportunities to make a fortune, film and television scripts, etc., But remember which film and television dramas will be popular, mobilize your own resources, purchase novel copyrights in advance, invest in film and television dramas). 2⃣️, fictional or different world The fictional or different world entertainment novel is a joke, entertainment, it is the culture, art and entertainment products of our real world. The reason why these movies, TV series and songs are popular is closely related to the current social background and the trend of the times. Even if the movies in our real world come out ten years in advance, they will definitely not be popular. For example, if "Wolf Warrior 2" was released in 2007, the box office would definitely not reach 30 million! Not to mention moving movies, TV shows and songs from our world to an alternate world or another world. It is absolutely impossible to be welcomed by people in another alternate world! 3⃣️, change the timeline or world background There are some entertainment novels that hard-write movies, TV shows, songs or variety shows that have been released before this point in time as not being released due to parallel time and space reasons, and then let the protagonist participate. For example, the protagonist travels back in time and is reborn in 2005, and then the protagonist goes to direct "Run Lola Run". For example, it would be extremely embarrassing to write that the protagonist traveled through time and was reborn in 2016, and then the protagonist participated in the variety show "Fengshen Training Camp". All the stars in the China Entertainment World written in some books are the same as those who exist in our reality, but making movies does not require permission and censorship, and the development of technology and the Internet is several years faster than our reality. Why write like this? The author is too lazy to look up the information, so he can just find some foreign movies and copy them. Anyway, it can be released in China without censorship and permission. , have been promoting movies on Weibo and short video platforms since 2005, because China Entertainment World is also several years ahead in the development of the Internet industry. There are also books about the China Entertainment World. Most of the stars that exist in our reality still exist, but some key people no longer exist. For example, write that Christopher Nolan does not exist, and then let the protagonist mainly copy Nolan's movies. Some books state that Jay Chou does not exist, and the protagonist mainly copies Jay Chou's songs. Some authors set up the system to provide film and television scripts to the protagonist, and actually provide movie scripts that have already been released. As long as the protagonist receives the script, the system can erase all traces of the movie in this world. It's so embarrassing that I just want to ask this author, can't you find a good movie after the protagonist is reborn through time travel? I despise all novels that change the timeline or world background! ! ! Is the author's ability to control and arrange the plot so poor? Can't the plot be reasonably arranged based on the real timeline and the backgrounds and characteristics of other stars? 4⃣️. The wrong way to play with female stars Many books write about the protagonist being in love with several female stars at the same time, and then these female stars know each other's situation and can tolerate each other, which is simply outrageous. Most of these authors treat their readers as mentally retarded, and they all write about female celebrities as tools, as if the female celebrities they write about do not have independent personalities. If this woman has no money or career, she may tolerate it for a while, but as long as she makes money, she will definitely not tolerate it anymore. If it is for the sake of resources, I will at most maintain a casual relationship with you and will not continue to fall in love with you! Of course these women also have many other friends at the same time! Look at the tycoon Howard Hughes. He had so many women at the same time, but most of them fell in love with him. In many books, it is written that the protagonist hangs out with different female celebrities every day, or even several a day. Who can stand it? In reality, those rich people who have dozens of lovers may only be able to sleep with one lover a day. If a person does it more than several times a day for a long time, his body will definitely become useless soon. Unless the protagonist is set to have a body-enhancing system plug-in. 5⃣️. Preaching Many authors write a novel about the entertainment industry and always preach at length in the book instead of mainly writing about the interaction between the protagonist and supporting characters. Readers pay money to read books, not for you to preach. Many authors think that they are not preaching, but writing narration. Haha, then you have to reflect on the problems in your writing. Dear book friends, if you have any other poisonous points you think, you can share them below. ✍️ ✍️ ✍️ ✍️ ✍️
The first movie in a short review novel
I feel that the adaptation of the first script is quite good. First of all, the author made a reasonable adaptation of local flowers, which is much more thoughtful than many novels that directly copy movie scripts. Secondly, the author reasonably buried two easter eggs in "Buried Alive". One is that the special forces who rescued the protagonist turned into Wolf Fang commandos, which led to "Wolf Warriors". The second is that the "subconscious healing device" involving dreams appeared in the end of the credits. This is related to "Inception" at first glance. It really feels like Marvel pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud. I hope the author will continue his efforts and see how the second movie goes.
Jing Tian plays the heroine of Gravity, I'm afraid it's not a bad movie, right?
Da Tiantian plays a major female lead in a drama like Gravity. It is almost a one-man show. The character is also full of growth and dramatic tension. It is not that she looks down on Da Tiantian. I doubt that she can even play an ordinary heroine well. Is her acting skills good?
Test poison
I've only read Chapter 98. The plot in the beginning is very good, but it's marked as a female protagonist, but I sleep with another woman in the middle... The book is so short, it's so difficult for female readers... Author, you're cheating by targeting a female protagonist like this!
"Star You" is too sloppy
It's not that I'm mocking her. Liu Yifei's embarrassing and foot-picking acting skills can't produce that kind of contrast at all 😅

Complain about how the entertainment industry exaggerates well-known plots
In those days, the influence of public intellectuals was not that great. At most, public intellectuals were considered a larger niche circle. The only famous public intellectuals with great influence were short and tight. He was considered the ceiling of the public intellectuals. Short, large and tight people only had such influence. How could they compare in influence with celebrities in the mainstream entertainment industry? In the era when public intellectuals were active, they did not have much influence. . . Is it blind to be positive or negative? ? ? On the contrary, only when the public knowledge is criticized by everyone, the netizens will know that the public knowledge is public knowledge. . .
When it comes to Liu Yifei, she blames her mother for playing a good hand of cards to pieces. The problem is that the good cards were also found for her by her mother. The subsequent decision was indeed not perfect, but the resources she found were really bad. The reason why she continued to fight was because Liu Yifei was incapable and not worthy of the resources her mother found for her. Look at the rubbish resources she found after she left her mother. She couldn't even act well in these youth dramas. In this case, fans still keep washing, blame her mother.
