Books I've Read: All Long Novels, Mostly Male-Audience Stories with Single Heroines
As the old saying goes, “If you want something done right, do it yourself.” I’ve always believed that I can only give a fairly objective review of a book if I’ve truly read it in depth myself. That’s what’s most useful to readers browsing a recommendation list. So every book on this list is one I’ve paid to read thoroughly. I won’t just copy and paste the blurb to fob readers off. I’ve written each summary myself, and I’ll do my best to make each review distinct so you can use them as a guide.

I only recommend books I've read myself. Some may be a little rough around the edges, but they're all good books that kept me reading. I'm past the age when every book I pick up becomes a favorite, but there are plenty of hugely popular authors whose books I can't get through. So every book on this list is one I've read and enjoyed enough to keep reading.

Have you ever been a witch? Take it for granted and write something 😅
Forgot to cut off the references🤓@reader
When writing a novel, you still need to have a detailed outline
Iona died too casually. This author seems to have a common problem in his works. On the one hand, the heroine basically lives a relaxed and happy life, while on the other hand, everyone else has their own difficulties and lives in dire straits. On the one hand, they hold high the banner of progress and equality, but on the other hand, they always reveal their worship of class, do not take human life seriously, and are immersed in grand narratives. In fact, according to the legend, I can still accept Tiya losing in the first version. People always make mistakes. Instead of the current assessment that disregards human life, the protagonist does not really exert any agency. It seems that she even feels that she deserves the depravity of her companions and does not care about it. It is very disconnected to watch.

His thinking is extremely out-of-the-box, and his conjectures about history and Xiludiya's age have turned into legendary (ridiculous) guesses (which have basically been overturned at present)
First of all, these speculations will raise the protagonist's background before amnesia very high, but as far as I know, the first two books written by Qingzora do not have a protagonist with a low background, so I think my guess is not particularly outrageous ( Conservative guess: The late eighth era, to the beginning of the narrative of this book Year 2145 of the Ninth Era of the Covenant. Why you guess so: The original content of Chapter 25: "In order to check the expansion of the Dragon of the Sun and end the too brutal "Catastrophe War", the goblin monarch made an agreement with a group of Sichen to divide the boundaries between mortals and upper-level creatures. From then on. The heavenly courtyard is separated from the earth, and no one can come and go at will. Only some passages and rituals can be opened. At the same time, the intensity of the war is limited, so that those mythical creatures that are beyond the imagination of mortals are isolated in the heavenly courtyard and can no longer interfere with the secular earth at will. " Based on this, two questions are raised: 1. The Dragon of the Sun sounds like something related to the two natures of Blazing Sun and Dragon Eye. Doesn't the remaining three natures of the upper level have nothing to do with the "Catastrophe War" in the eighth era? 2. The Elf Monarch was mentioned in the description of Xilu Tiya's talent in Chapter 2? , Obviously it is related to the Cuimi sex, so since it is the goblin monarch who comes to control the Dragon of the Sun, will the Cuimi sex also be related to the "Battle of Catastrophe"? It is "Huiyue" and "Cuimi", it looks familiar, right? Chapter 2 of the text, Xilu Tiya? Fate Card: [Sleeping Girl] 'You have lost the power of sexual appearance you once had. You can only guess from the silver vine frame that this power of sexual appearance may be related to the 'Huiyue' or 'Green Honey'. The past memories are deeply asleep. If you want to awaken that sleeping past, Go ahead, please start with 'Hui Yue' and 'Cui Mi'." This is an idea that has no evidence and even makes no sense, but why can't we assume that Xiludiya's amnesia and loss of sexual power are actually the sequelae of the "Catastrophe War"? In fact, it can be seen from the description of the talent that Sildiya's family is blessed by the Elf Lord. If the Elf Lord is closely related to this war, or even directly a party to the war, Sildiya herself is more likely to participate in the catastrophic battle. I don't think this conjecture is true. It's not unreasonable. Sildiya's destiny card can be related to two genders at the same time. Judging from the sixth-level androgyny class that appears in Chapter 36 of the text, Sildya's destiny card before she lost her memory is entirely possible to be the sixth-level androgyny class or above. The sixth level of the castle's gender means the founding level. Weiye, what about the sixth level of Huiyue and Cuimi? If it is even above the sixth level, it may be linked to a major historical period like the "Catastrophe War" (mainly because the high background of the protagonists in Qingkong's first two books gave me confidence) But there is a bolder guess: Regardless of the age before coming to this world, from the end of the Second Era to the present, the year 2145 of the Ninth Era This is even more crazy. It is purely a conjecture based on Silutia's other talent with less clear meaning: Star [Unknown Level]: You are not favored by the stars. You are not an original resident here, but an alien planet. But the strange thing is that you have been accepted by this world and become a part of it. Cherish this gift. The meaning behind this is far beyond your imagination. Alien planet, what does the alien planet have to do with the history of this world? >Original text of Chapter 19: "This era lasted for unknown years, until the alien star shattered the carcass of the world and came to the world." "The terrifying wound torn by the alien star made the world tremble, and countless firelights bloomed from the dark sky and sea, from which the original The light of the sky is the 'Scorching Sun' and the 'Fantasy Moon'." The original text of Chapter 25: The 'Scorching Sun' and the 'Fantasy Moon' were born in the third era, and they ended the second era of the unity of the sky and the sea, that is, the Qionghai Era. Therefore, that era when the sun and the moon shine together is called the 'Sun and Moon Era' (Chapter 2). Third Era). Then we can know that the alien planet shattered the entire world at the end of the Second Era and opened the Third Era... So combine this conjecture with the "connection of silk chords" at the end of Chapter 39, the accumulation of countless subtleties, the mother of life that changes the world, she will also go on the journey. Such a path." And the "Creation Witch" Sildya mentioned in the introduction, we may be able to draw the following ideas: Syldya came to this world at the end of the Second Era and destroyed the world, and finally embarked on the great journey of putting the world back together in the Ninth Era?

Can I really be relaxed and happy this time? ()
Some facts about cornflowers
The name cornflower comes from the Greek Kentaureion, which means the herb of Chiron the Centaur. Chiron was known for his wisdom. He was familiar with various plants and could use them to cure diseases. The ancestors of the Eastern peoples also brought back cornflowers when they brought back grain seeds. Its Chinese name originated from Japan. Because its petals shoot out in all directions like arrows and the entire shape radiates like a wheel, it was named "cornflower". The flower language of cornflowers mainly includes "meeting and happiness", "gentleness and loveliness", "seeing the light again", "elegance" and "auspiciousness".
I think the author wants to write that the protagonist keeps a low profile and plays the role of a pig and eats the tiger. But shouldn't there be a proper reason? Judging from the first volume, it is barely reasonable for the protagonist to disguise his appearance and say that he does not want to attract bees and butterflies. What role does it play to forcefully hide his combat power? Not to mention that An Luoer vest, it is completely redundant. Then in the second volume, since the protagonist has chosen to go to the shadow world, a place where major organizations select talents for the next step of development, and the competition for places is so fierce that an important supporting role died, which caused controversy, then isn't what she should do is to show off her talents to obtain resource tilt? You are talking about yearning for a peaceful pastoral life, so what are you doing here? Just this sentence made my impression of the protagonist drop sharply. It would be better to add an external force setting, such as being chased by something, so that the protagonist cannot show his face and attract attention.
The author is advised to exploit strengths and avoid weaknesses
After reading it, I suggest the author make the most of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, and focus on fantasy stuff instead of writing about military and political stuff. In addition, there are too many places where inconsistent strength collapses, so it is better to make an outline For example, the camel picking up the students in the forest, even if the power of the whole world on the earth cannot reach a toe, it is many times higher than the train after the Mage Alliance. It will become very funny if the author talks about industrialization Another example is the Mage Alliance, which has three named ones starting at level 8, and four woodland players who are considered to be high-end players at level 6. Their strength has completely collapsed Or I can ask the author what level the camel, which is taller than the mountains, is? Can I use this thing as a carriage to fight black snakes in the forest and get a few sixth levels? These four sixth-level people were trampled to death by camels.
I have read all three of Aozora's books. Except for the first one, which I have not ordered in full, I have ordered all of the second and this one. First of all, I am very happy to see the changes in the author's mentality in these three books, which is a good thing. The content of the book can reflect the author's real situation to a certain extent. Although the three books have certain similarities in content and themes, they have different cores. In Not a Witch, the protagonist is an artificial human created by ancient humans. He has a distinguished identity and background, a certain ability to protect himself, and a major mission. However, these are not important to the protagonist. In this book, the protagonist passively accepts every change in the event. It is only the protagonist's ability that makes passive acceptance become a kind of confidence. In the end, the protagonist clearly understands his mission and accepts his fate calmly, but I think there should be a little unwillingness. In "Don't Want to Be a Witch", the protagonist possesses special abilities and has a declining family background. The unfortunate experiences in his childhood have led to a life of poverty, and he has become very introverted because of this family background. Under such circumstances, the protagonist still takes a step to change himself. Later, he meets a noble person who appreciates him, and thus discovers his own ability, which spreads from changing himself to changing everything. It seems good, but the protagonist's idea from the beginning was just to change his own situation. The subsequent changes in a series of events made the protagonist realize his own specialness and couldn't bear to see what he had experienced happen elsewhere. This is a change in mentality, from passive acceptance to wanting to take the initiative to change. This is a huge change. In this book, this change in mentality is further reflected. It becomes easier for the protagonist to accept his identity, and he is better able to make use of his identity. He accepts the add-ons to his identity more calmly, and participates in some things more actively. His own behavior style also becomes vigorous. Feng Xing, but occasionally he would argue that he was not like this 😁 I don't know the author's real situation, but from the changes in the three books, I saw changes. I saw the changes in the protagonist's personality, and also saw the change in the author's mentality. In my opinion, this is a good thing. As for some comments I saw saying that the story progresses slowly and the protagonist always has a calm and unhurried mentality, I have a different view on this. First of all, let's make it clear that the protagonists in the three books have one thing in common, that is, the protagonists are all immortals, and the most important thing for immortals is time. In this case, their views on things are different from others. Since I don't lack time, why should I be impatient, and why should I do things that are faster than haste. This kind of mentality will naturally make the protagonist neither impatient nor impatient, but it does not mean that the protagonist does not pay attention to some important things. It is more that he wants to be fully prepared to face the future, and it is enough to do what he can do well in the present. The above is my humble opinion. If there are any shortcomings, please correct me.
