A Veteran Reader's Personal Reading List
I’d like to share some books I’ve read and am currently reading. These aren’t beginner-level stories; they have smart characters. I’ve been reading web novels for many years, from pirated copies to official editions, so I suppose you could call me a veteran reader. The first web novel I read was "Immortal Cauldron". I happened upon it while browsing a rental bookstore. As I slowly read the story, the protagonist Zhang Meng’s experiences opened a door to another world for me, a world full of fant

Author, please turn off the anti-piracy measures, I can't read this.
[Book Review] A book with unique perspectives and highlights, worth reading.
I've read most of it on Gouyue, so here's a brief overview of my impressions. As a novel based on the Dream of the Red Chamber, it doesn't directly create a fictional dynasty, but cleverly combines it with the Northern Song Dynasty and connects it to the classic novel *Water Margin*.
That's brilliant! This concept works perfectly perfectly; it's incredibly awesome!
The author's way of linking Jin Ping Mei and Dream of the Red Chamber is truly ingenious. Connecting the backgrounds of Dream of the Red Chamber with Jin Ping Mei and Water Margin is really great! Very good! This is much, much better than those stories that combine elements of the Qing and Ming dynasties, or fictional settings depicting the Ming and Qing periods.
Gentlemen! Please take a look!
This is my first time writing history. Gentlemen who support me, please read it! Help me achieve some success, don't let it die out! Thank you!

After reading the latest chapter, I can tell the author has talent.
I won't even mention the descriptions of the people; everyone's praising them. I just want to say the author's depiction of society at the time is absolutely brilliant. The descriptions of clothing, food, housing, and transportation are superb; it's clear the author put in a lot of research. For example, the "ice and snow cold dumplings" were a popular snack at the time.
"Serving you, sir, is the proper thing to do; I dare not complain of the hardship."
The author remembers Granny Liu; don't forget the women.
My current favorite historical text
The writing is excellent, a true gem, capturing the essence of nature and human relationships with exquisite detail. Most importantly, it's not mindless entertainment; there are subtle foreshadowings throughout, and updates are frequent. I can only say I don't even have enough coupons to watch ads!
