🖌️ Around 8–9 Out of 10, Interesting Reads I’ve Recently Picked Out
📚 I've reread my old favorites over and over. Lately, I've been looking for new books and have read well over a hundred. Some were pretty good, around 80 to 90 points. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ to about four stars, based on the chapters I've read so far. What happens after that is up to the author. 🔥 Books I feel could stay popular for a while. Yeah, the ones with really high scores: entertaining stories that seem likely to keep going strong. There are all kinds of genres here, so I'm sharing them with everyone.

Let's Read Good Books Together
Everyone has their own tastes, so the books on this list may not be for you, but they definitely aren't mindless. If you like one, give it a thumbs-up. If you don't, hit the thumbs-down. I'll remove the ones that aren't good first. The goal is to recommend great reads and help everyone find something new! The list mainly features, but isn't limited to, infinite-loop stories, wizards, xianxia, comedic commentary, science fiction, gender-bending, and historical fiction. I used to ignore recommenda

A story of tormenting the protagonist, similar to the theme of "Life's Regrets Flow Eastward Like a River".
I'm giving away 100 Qidian coins as a heads-up: the writing is decent, but the plot is extremely tragic for the main character. If you don't like stories with tragic main characters, don't read it! Silly kids, run!
A very petty Xianxia novel
My suggestion is to quickly read 😰 Yue, it's a female-oriented novel turned into a male-oriented one, right? It's all about romance, nothing but romance. The core is still feudal, there's no immortal path to freedom, no joy in revenge, and don't even mention the tenderness between men and women. The whole reading experience is petty and narrow-minded. That's all.
Taurus's plot is terrible
The plot of Taurus Star is terrible. What does it mean when the Queen Mother says "there's something wrong with me"? It's hilarious that there are eunuchs in the Jade Pool Celestial Palace.
Forget it, angst-filled novels are too pretentious; I don't like them. I might have liked them before, like *The Great Monkey King* or *Dark Blood Age*, which I used to enjoy immensely. Now I don't like them anymore; I just want some fast-paced, exciting stories. I wish the author great success!
It's too verbose, with too much internal monologue, too much focus on showing off, and too little plot progression. The author is likely a woman. Not many people care about the male and female leads' inner monologues; if you can't win, just die. If you can win, then you must endure loneliness and hardship. Does all this rambling and rambling really move heaven and earth? Heaven and earth are inherently indifferent.
He arbitrarily killed the cowherd child (how many lifetimes before Xu Xian?).
The chapter where he casually killed an innocent cowherd immediately raised serious questions. One kills because of personal whim, the other kills others because he feels guilty about being reborn? This kind of person can only ever be a demon. He's completely given up on being human, even worse than the crab (Fahai's previous incarnation). I'm deleting him from my bookshelf; not worth reading.
If you like watching the Flood Dragon King beat up Sun Wukong, then go ahead and watch it.
This author is ridiculous. They gave a minor character who barely appeared in the original work such a high level of power, and not only that, they also belittled the original protagonist. When I read Journey to the West fanfiction, do I look at the monkeys instead of the two fish? You're belittling the monkey like that, and there's a bunch of idiot netizens defending you.
There were no satisfying moments, just frustration and blandness. I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
Drunk! Even in the fantasy genre, they're still writing female-oriented content like eunuchs. They've gotten used to it, haven't they? Even immortals have eunuchs! 😥 Unbelievable!
The female author is awesome. The protagonist is frustrated all the way, so she doesn't get through it smoothly. She is suppressed all the way. That's awesome.
