A record of the books I've been reading lately. This isn't a recommendation list, just a simple record of what I've read recently.
Unearthed Gems: Books at a College Student's Level!
What does college-level writing mean? First, it's not childish prose or overly simplistic writing. The logic should hold together, and the writing should flow. It might be understated yet humorous, awe-inspiring in its imagination, or so finely written that it resonates with the reader. And so on. In short, it shouldn't make you feel inexplicably pulled out of the story.
Epic Myth and Fantasy
Legends are epics, and myths are reality. Who wields the pen like a blade, carving the truth of this world? When dragon roars break the dawn, the gods meet their twilight!
No Romance, Ensemble Cast
Since most stories lose all common sense as soon as they introduce romance, I’ve preferred romance-free stories and ensemble casts pursuing their careers over the past two years. Recommendations are welcome. I’ve read at least half of every novel I recommend. Please let me know if any later developments no longer fit the theme
Great Reads Over 500,000 Words That Will Keep You Up at Night
I've personally reviewed every book. These are my most honest impressions.
Looking for Novels Without Tormenting the Hero or Harem-Building
I like lighthearted books with invincible protagonists and no romance. If the premise is interesting enough, those three points can be overlooked, though I still don't read stories with multiple female leads.
Wild Ideas
Books that stand out in some way
New Buds, Tiny Buds, and Teeny-Tiny Buds
This list is mainly for promising new stories under 100,000 words. I hope they grow into towering trees soon! I've tried writing novels myself, so I know how much a recommendation on a reading list can help during the early stages of a new book. Back then, I used to leave comments on reading lists hoping to get a recommendation, but almost never heard back. So after I stopped writing, I started putting this list together. I hope I can do my small part to help. May you ride the wind and become a
Obscure and Niche Genres
Nonhuman protagonists, protagonists outside the orthodox path, unorthodox cultivation techniques, unusual concepts, and niche genres.
Kapok Blossom's Personal Booklist
Just as the title says, this is my personal reading list. A lot of these books aren't particularly good and have plenty of little problems, but if I can see the author improving, I'm willing to pay for the books as a form of encouragement. That's still better than some so-called great authors who've made no progress in years. The styles here vary widely, and I'll add or remove books from time to time. (P.S. I don't really like writing book summaries. You can click through to read the author's ow

The subject matter of this book is indeed novel, like a pineapple emerging from a pile of apples
This book opens up another track for wizards
This book is simply a breath of fresh air in wizard literature. I have basically read all the famous wizarding books on the list. So far, the two books that have left the biggest impression on me are The Wizarding World (the pioneering work of the wizarding genre) and this one. Generally speaking, wizards in the literature are indifferent and selfish psychopaths. This is normal. The strange world + the survival environment of the fittest + the heart of worshiping the strong + the desire for life have trained wizards into this kind of selfish and narcissistic neurotic personality. Not all opportunities will be delivered to the protagonist, and not all enemies are malicious towards the protagonist. All results have reasons (in layman's terms, you can use your brain when watching the plot) The plot is smoothly connected, the characters are full of emotions, and it is a good article no matter what the subject matter is. It is a wizard novel, but I think it is more of a wizard Western fantasy novel that applies the wizard-style world view. The protagonist is not always in a life-or-death crisis, and the improvement of strength is not necessarily the most important thing. Not everyone will live and die for a few resources, and then the young ones die and the old ones give away their heads and equipment. The process can also be more important than the results, not the resources obtained. Every thing I have experienced, every person and every word is a kind of harvest, growing and developing. Ruger is the kindest and best-charactered protagonist in all the wizarding novels I have ever read. He is real. He has walked through it step by step since the birth of consciousness. He has no memory of soul reincarnation in this world. The author writes about this growth process in a very natural way. I even have a kind of nurturing happiness. What Ruger brings to readers is a relaxed and stable mentality, which not only affects us, but also indirectly radiates to many people around us. You can say he is ugly, but no one can hate him from the bottom of his heart. The wizard's diary of the kobold, It's like an adventure, more like a journey, The wizard has not only interests and power in his heart, but also a steaming bowl of thick soup.
Nowadays, it is harder to find a novel that writes a story seriously than it is to have an erotic dream while sleeping. Come on, author.
If there is no book to read, please give me some advice, brothers.
I have mixed tastes and read a little bit of everything. As long as you think it looks good, I'll try it.
Good niche articles
It is indeed written in a tone that makes the kobold confused and thoughtful, with fragmented and divergent thinking. Moreover, the wording and word order itself have a flavor of The Lord of the Rings. But on the other hand, there are too many detailed descriptions of appearance and demeanor, as well as the protagonist's psychological activities and speculations. Many times the connection between context and context is not smooth. For example, in the opening scene where the fight with other kobolds occurs, almost every paragraph is interspersed with changing perspectives. This causes the plot to progress at a normal speed, or even fast, but the writing seems very slow. Looking at it, it's a bit tiring.
Sure enough, impulsiveness is the devil, I ordered it all in one go, and then I couldn't read about 700 chapters. Every chapter is a waste, and the main plot is basically not recommended? What is this? The whole article is full of chatter, going around and around. It's not that the author doesn't know how to write, it's that he doesn't want to write, right? The compactness of the early stage is completely gone. Quite disappointed
Have you ever been a kobold? Some things are scribbled and taken for granted.
Lots of robot comments
It's hard to read the text. I don't know if it's not smooth or for some reason. The style is that of an animal in ancient times. It's a very bland narrative to explain a story.
Why do kobolds shed their hair? It's just a matter of translation. They are called kobolds.
I hope the author can stick with it until it is finished. This book is really good.
