The Ones I Never Tire of Reading (Personal Picks)
All sorts of books across all sorts of genres. If one really wows me, I'll add it.
Great Book Recommendations, Fewer Reading Slumps
Books with lots of subscribers: urban, light novels, and historical fiction~ A step above newbies, but not quite a veteran reader~ These are my personal opinions, so please don't take offense~ My ratings are only: Solid pick (has something going for it) Must-read (really good) I'm out of things to read. I've dropped so many books halfway through~
Books I've Read
Books with distinctive new ideas, fresh settings •ᴗ• and original concepts; seasoned writing and good storytelling. I personally bought every chapter. This also includes pioneering works of certain genres. Although some aspects may seem clichéd by today's standards, they are still well worth collecting as nostalgic reads. Updated irregularly. If there are books I particularly dislike, I may list them as well, partly as a warning to fellow readers.

A Reasonable Reader's Picks: The Logic Should Mostly Hold Up, with a Bit of Everything
I've been an avid reader for almost ten years, so my tastes are pretty varied. I recommend books for readers who want something beyond simplistic fiction: fewer tired tropes, fewer saintly characters, and fewer mindless face-slapping scenes. I also like books with relatable protagonists. More precisely, these characters act in ways that feel human. They can be good or bad, but their choices have to make sense. P.S. Please save and like the list so I can see what you enjoy. The list has reached

New releases that really stand out! Fantasy, xianxia, urban, historical, sci-fi, light novels... (The flowers-for-a-booklist event is paused.

Chen Qi thought about it and realized it made sense. It seemed exactly the same as before, but upon closer inspection, it felt like something was missing. Some people will never come back. Three days ago, Chen Qi's father died. There were no surprises; the autopsy report stated that he died suddenly. Chen Qi did not believe the autopsy report because she was at home on the day her father died.
Chen Qi travels through time to "The Literary Era" and guides Grandpa Chu and Young Master Zhou.
The difference between people is truly greater than that between a person and a dog. Chen Qi shook himself off, came out of the toilet, felt his heart pounding, and sighed deeply. He'd transmigrated again, for the second time. He'd finally escaped the life of emptying chamber pots, his wife and children enjoying a warm bed, only to wake up one morning to find Xiao Gong gone, his children gone,…
Chen Qi asked the owner why he hadn't moved to a more spacious and comfortable storefront after making money for over ten years. The owner, busy with his work serving beef hot and sour soup, chuckled when he heard the question. He'd lived a long life, and had been running his stall here for so long; he was used to it. If you really asked me to work in a bigger store, my whole family would feel uncomfortable. People are always nostalgic; they like to keep the good things deep in their memories.
[Fanfic] Chen Qi and Gong Xue's Daily Life
It was a bright and sunny morning. Chen Qi arrived early outside the film studio, holding a bouquet of flowers still glistening with dew. Gong Xue asked the security guard to open the gate. Seeing his smile and the flowers, an indescribable warmth welled up in her heart. How thoughtful of him! These flowers are so beautiful. Chen Qi smiled and said, "Little Gong, these flowers are for you.

Who told him to go for abstract art! (4.4K)
Chen Qi wasn't sick; he just had a craving for shit. Summer, 1979. The air in Beijing seemed to carry a peculiar smell. Chen Qi wandered to the public toilet in Menkuang Hutong and suddenly began muttering to himself, "Hey, you mysterious little house, do you know? You hold the secrets of the universe! Today I'm going to go in and explore, hahahaha!" With that, he plunged into the public toilet.
