Sunny and Rainy Book List
Um, I guess I'm a longtime reader by now. Here's a list of some books I've read that I thought were pretty good, along with a few I'd warn people away from. Some books have great stats, but didn't suit my taste. I also have a few I'd like to call out for not living up to their reputations, so I'll give them their own section here instead of saying so in the authors' comment sections. I'm not too picky about what I read. What I care about most is whether the prose flows smoothly, so there's a bit

A Library of Fantasy Worlds Across the Heavens
Mostly stories set in other worlds or parallel worlds, with a cheat or a System. Supporting characters are smart, protagonists don't rise to the top overnight, and there isn't much romantic drama.

I Like All Kinds of Transmigration Stories, but Not Fantasy or Alternate History. I Especially Love Historical and Anime Stories
Mostly transmigration stories. I've read every book here from start to finish before recommending it, so updates will be slow
Novel Reviews in Progress
Over the years, finding a book that suits my tastes has not been easy. In the vast sea of books, even novels on the rankings are not necessarily worthy of their reputations. The main purpose of this collection is to properly summarize the books I have read recently, and to give readers like me a reference so they can save a little time when choosing what to read.

Not by Master Authors
I rarely read books by famous authors.
♥ Bookshelf ♥
People’s tastes can change with age. Sometimes I really miss when I first started reading. Back then, everything seemed like a good book, and I could read any genre. After all these years, I’ve become much pickier. So I’ve picked out some books I like: thoughtful, funny, unconventional, niche, slice-of-life, and more.
Rating the Books I’ve Read
When I read, I mainly care about the protagonist’s personality. I like Han Li and protagonists with a similar outlook, who put themselves first. They can do good deeds, but shouldn’t do so out of kindness for no reason. I also don’t want protagonists who hurt innocent people for a little gain, or harm others without benefiting themselves.
Myths Live On
The world of gods and demons has long since left us, but their names still live on. If you enjoy mythology, come take a look!
Private Bookshelf
From this moment on, let's build a personal bookshelf. I hope whenever you open a book, it's because you like it, not because you're bored! Just like getting married, it should be for love, not because you had to settle. @Everyone who joined
My Personal Reading Stash
Decent reads I've read recently or am currently reading. At the very least, I think they're worth reading. Any genre goes. I'll remove a book if I stop enjoying it.

Brother, you still need to practice.
Trapped ghosts, devouring ghosts, slaying ghosts... "Riding a ghost". This was the first time Zhang Jiuyang had heard of it, and the first time he had ever seen it. It's strange. Zhang Jiuyang was drawing portraits of gods and Buddhas when he accidentally fell asleep and ended up in a new world. This world. Very peculiar. It is completely different from the Earth he used to live on.
Slay the demon with your sword!
The setting sun sinks behind the western mountains, and dusk is approaching. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the willow trees beside the stream, where Zhang Jiuyang, dressed in blue, stood with his brows slightly open. "Who awakens first from this great dream? Only I know the truth of my own life!" "I accidentally slept for the whole afternoon!"

Work in a factory
"Since youth cannot be retained, why not work in a factory where meals and accommodation are provided?" "Tightening screws is too hard work, I'd rather be a security guard!" "The air conditioning in the factory isn't for people, it's for the machines. The air conditioning in the security booth is for people!" Zhang Jiuyang slowly opened his eyes as he heard the unfamiliar voice beside him.
A few personal thoughts
The protagonist's cultivation progress is a bit slow. His growth in the last book was too fast, and this one feels a bit slower; he's only at the second realm after 100 chapters. This wouldn't be a problem in itself, but the enemies are far stronger than the protagonist.
The first five realms were great, but the rest fell apart.
The first five realms were exciting, but the plot fell apart after that. I don't understand why the author insisted on creating such a grand background. It was another conflict between the divine and human realms, and the protagonist suddenly became a prince living among commoners—that plot point was disgusting. Then, they inserted a subplot about the Jade Emperor from Earth.
Overall, it's good.
The writing style of this book is very smooth and comfortable to read, surpassing 90% of the books on Qidian. However, there's a plot twist in the middle where the protagonist gets injured while acting, and is almost killed off. This twist felt really illogical, so I dropped it. I roughly understand that the author wanted to add some plot, but the technique was just too poor.
In this book, the good characters often suffer inhuman torture, worse than death, and their eventual demise is a relief. The bad characters, on the other hand, commit countless evil deeds, living carefree lives, and in the end, they simply die easily, taking a few innocent people with them. Even when the protagonist defeats the villains, it still leaves the reader feeling unsatisfied, with a lingering sense of injustice.
A good article; its flaws do not detract from its overall excellence.
The writing and descriptions are both very good, and it's a very enjoyable read. The only drawback is that the protagonist always seems somewhat detached, making it difficult to immerse oneself in the character. The protagonist is clearly hardworking, humble, and capable. Yet, every now and then, someone will blurt out, "You're not good enough for Miss Yue," or "What's your status?"
The plot and language of this book are quite good; I've been reading it continuously. However, the settings for cultivation levels and lifespan are a bit strange. The fourth realm is the Golden Core stage, and the sixth realm is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage, since the ninth realm is the Immortal stage. A person can reach the Nascent Soul stage at thirty, only two steps away from becoming an Immortal, and then still die of illness in their sixties or seventies... This setting...
