Only the Best Books Over One Million Words
Books I personally think are pretty good, in all sorts of genres. I only recommend books with over a million words.
A Feast for Foodies
A collection of works the list owner enjoyed reading. The owner considers their reading experience reasonably broad, and this list includes everything from breakout hits with over 100,000 subscribers to underrated gems, spanning fantasy, xianxia, light novels, history, science fiction, and fantasy.
Books I'm Following (Mostly Multiple Female Leads)
No protagonists who are eunuchs! No eunuchs! No eunuchs!! Important things have to be said three times. Unless the book is genuinely great and exciting! Also, a warning to readers: there are a lot of weird people in the chapter comments. Don’t let them influence you. If you think the book is good, that’s what matters. If you want to promote a book, please read the description carefully. It should preferably have more than 100,000 words. Thanks.

A Veteran Reader Who Has Read Every Novel in Yijiao Bookshop
As an avid reader of over ten years, I want to share some books that I think have something to offer. I don't have much of a way with words, and my memory is getting worse, but I still want to record books whose plots and characters I may no longer remember, in hopes of bringing someone a little of the joy they once brought me. I've read thousands of books, so I think I've picked out the best ones. If you haven't read them, give them a try. P.S. These days, I can barely finish a novel. I couldn'

My Reading List (Alternate Worlds, Ensemble Casts)
I read all sorts of things, but generally prefer ensemble casts.
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.

Web Novel Picks: Not for Beginners, Off the Beaten Path
Not beginner-level fiction. Personal taste, entirely subjective. I'll score each work based on my preferences, out of 10. The books on the rankings are pretty good, but most put commercial success first. They're like junk food: great the first time, but too much gets cloying, and they don't have much to offer beyond passing the time. These days I mostly browse at random, and I'm not as free as I used to be, so finding a book that suits my taste is pretty rare. I've read every book I review. I
[Proceed with Caution] The Divine Farmer's Weed Compendium
I'll put the bad books here and the good ones in the neighboring Hundred Herbs Record. Rotten Weeds are books I don't want to read past the free chapters, or that have too many major flaws. Poison Weeds means exactly what it sounds like.

Regarding the protagonist's cheat ability
First, it can cause civilians to be mildly infected with the Witch Disease, thereby granting them magical powers, and then allowing them to use magic-powered guns and machines. Second, the protagonist's greatest ability is debate. In a world with popes and angels, debate is truly powerful.
The synopsis mentions the Great Western King, and the content features a strong tendency towards obsessive-compulsive behavior and a nanny-like devotion.
After reading the first ten chapters, all I saw was an incredibly idiotic plot. None of the characters are realistic; they are all forced into a clownish performance by the author, and a clownish one at that. Some people say that the first part is not very well written, but the rest is very well written. Not everyone has the patience to endure the initial disgust and the patience to see what follows.
Holy Alliance Jokes
1. An artist at the Holy Armory was painting "Lady Jeanne in the Dawn Island Federation," depicting the Saint's grandson and Sylvie. A passerby asked, "Who is the person sitting next to the Saint's grandson?" The artist replied, "She is Sylvie, the Dean of the Holy Alliance Academy." The passerby asked, "What are they doing?" The artist replied, "They are discussing how to build a clockwork train."

Shennong is here
As a book about a medieval uprising, the world setting is relatively novel, and the basic skills of scene description and narration are solid. However, the style was not yet determined in the early stages, some plot settings were lacking, and some scenes were overly repetitive with references, which could be off-putting.
The plot is full of jokes, but the character development is poor. First, Joan of Arc is portrayed as a liar, and then the protagonist is portrayed as a low-budget version of Hong Xiuquan, even worse than Fang La. The various mishmash-like settings are both headache-inducing and unnecessary, and the book itself is a low-budget version of "Release the Witches".
It's recommended to summon 1000 knight mechs when you reach the lord's castle.
