A Private List for Killing Time: If It's Fun, It's Worth It
This list has no theme. It only contains books I personally think are decent, with a preference for stories with big, imaginative concepts. To be clear, there won't be any books where poorly written female characters get way too much screen time. And let me make this clear: pure romance and harem are absolute opposites. I have no idea how anyone dares to put those two words together. It's absurd. Battlefield stories just can't get great again. Dice gacha games, I'm really mad now. P.S. I'll re
Spirit Beasts, Farming, Pokemon, and More
Got any good recommendations?
Elf Novels, Pokemon, and Beast-Taming Novels
Mainly recommending spirit-taming and beast-taming novels, mostly new releases. Self-recommendations are welcome.
Rookie Training Room
Collecting promising newcomers and good reads. The reviews are only my personal opinions
A Bookworm’s Pantry
Mostly System or quick transmigration stories, with one or two farming stories. They're generally the kind of books that are easy to read.
Zangzang Mao's Book Reviews
This list features works of many kinds. A book needs to be at least worth reading to make the cut. Poor writing is an automatic rejection, but I'll make exceptions for originality, creativity, and wild ideas. I'm a picky list curator, and I regularly cull abandoned novels! Abandoned books must go!!

A moving rebirth
I saw this book while it was free for a limited time, and after checking it out, I realized I had indeed read the original version. I started reading the author's books with "The Inspector," and then followed up with "Gourmet 1.0." At the time, the subject matter was quite novel, and given the success of the author's previous book, I had high expectations.
After the reset, it looked much better than before, with a more comfortable rhythm and less dryness.
I read the author's first book from beginning to end. The concept was refreshing, and the interaction between humans and pets was heartwarming. I didn't read the food-themed book because of my studies, but I followed up on the unserious one later. However, it ended after I had only raised my pet for ten chapters.
Looking forward to future anime adaptations
I feel this book would be quite suitable for an anime adaptation; it's a fusion of Pokémon and Cooking Master Boy, and it's actually quite well-written.
The author writes really well! I came from *Douluo Continent*, and I also finished *The Envoy*, but due to limited funds at the time, I could only read pirated versions. Later, due to academic commitments, I didn't continue with the earlier book. I'm so happy to have recently discovered the remastered version. The author's writing style has consistently improved; keep up the good work!
There are actually many settings we can learn from.
Throughout history and across the world, there are countless stories to learn from the continuous reform and innovation of kitchen utensils, materials, and techniques. The different philosophies and origins of the eight major Chinese cuisines alone offer a wealth of possibilities. Add to that Italian and French cuisines, and the possibilities are endless.
Isn't the Rare Animal Hunting Team a cult?
Is this a copy of Team Rocket from Pokémon? The fact that they specifically wrote two villains makes it feel a bit off; the higher-ups have all been arrested, while two low-level henchmen are still running around. It's like a venomous plaster, really poisonous! The law enforcement in this world is terrible, utterly incompetent.
Idiom Chain
A good book is incomplete without an idiom chain game! Let me start with: (xiù sè kě cān) 😋
Seeing Yangzhou fried rice made me think of a question.
How will the protagonist explain the word "Yangzhou"? There are also many dishes involving place names or people. 🧐 For example, when making Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, how do you explain the word "Buddha"? Currently, there are no Buddhist elements in our worldview.
Honestly, the subject matter was quite original, but unfortunately, I couldn't stick with it. I kept missing updates every few days, and eventually, I just drifted away.
