Personal Reading List
Books I'm currently reading or have finished. Qidian's recommendations have a hard time catering to different tastes, so I hope everyone will make more lists of their own. That way, we can share good books and stay out of reading slumps.
My Third Reading List
This list is entirely based on my personal taste and appreciation for the authors' imagination. There's no serious theme to it; I just thought these books were interesting and worth sharing. Let's see how that goes.

A very good book; the most unique dragon script I've ever read.
The premise is quite unique, completely different from other stories I've read about demon cultivators transforming into dragons. The protagonist, a dragon prince, is a born powerful demon with a prestigious status in both the Dragon Palace and the mortal realm (it doesn't seem to be set in the prehistoric world or Journey to the West; here, cultivating to become a dragon is the ultimate path).
Screenshot of personal memo
The ornate language and elaborate descriptions of characters and scenery in my writing came from these excerpts.
It describes the dragon race, but it still reflects human behavior and values.
What's the main plot? What's the main plot? What is the protagonist trying to do? It felt like I wasted my time watching it; it was just a rambling, disjointed account.
I'm getting angrier the more I think about it. Can you give me money back?
Pay me back my money, pay me back my money, pay me back my money! If all else fails, cut off that thing down there and become my sister.
What exactly is the protagonist doing?
No kidding, I'm an audiobook listener, so I might have missed something, but I genuinely don't understand the protagonist's actions. The protagonist had just been teaching his sister that climbing the social ladder to become a true dragon was a heretical and crooked path, but what happened? When he himself encountered someone with such luck, didn't he want to lick their boots like a dog?
Reading Chapter 36
The author has excellent writing skills and a strong command of language, but I personally have some questions about the later plot. By chapter 36, the protagonist had opened orphanages and nursing homes, and had already taken on two apprentices. He also plans to take on an unborn nephew as an apprentice in the future.
It's getting less and less interesting. It's purely a babysitter story. The protagonist doesn't have much screen time. After reading over a hundred chapters, it's all about cleaning up after his siblings.
The last one ended badly, and this one will likely end badly too. Author, just give up writing altogether, abandon it, and don't start any new books. Change careers and stop ruining our lives.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
There are always authors who change their writing style and plot pacing as they write. Some authors go crazy, like that necromancer who ruined his career; others are led astray by distractions, like this book. Basically, any change results in a box office flop; there are very few exceptions. People have been following the story precisely because they like your original style and pacing, right? If you insist on changing it, well, it's doomed.
