I've been reading on Qidian for twelve years. I don't give books ratings or stars ⭐ because everyone has their own tastes. I focus on what makes each book distinctive. The ones on this list have all found their own niche. Reading lets us immerse ourselves in worlds others have created and feel for their characters and stories. A book that suits your taste is hard to find. I read widely and I'm picky, so I'll collect any interesting books I come across here. I hope you find something you like. I

Books I'm Following (Mostly Multiple Female Leads)
No protagonists who are eunuchs! No eunuchs! No eunuchs!! Important things have to be said three times. Unless the book is genuinely great and exciting! Also, a warning to readers: there are a lot of weird people in the chapter comments. Don’t let them influence you. If you think the book is good, that’s what matters. If you want to promote a book, please read the description carefully. It should preferably have more than 100,000 words. Thanks.
Personal Recommendations
Nothing much to say.

Bai Ge's Top Picks
I’ve been reading for twenty years. This list features recent releases across various genres, rated Fodder or better. Most have one heroine or no heroine.
Chishi Dawang’s Curated Reading List
I've divided the books I've finished into three grades: upper, middle, and lower. 1. The top grade reflects my personal tastes most, so there are very few of them. 2. The bottom grade usually means a book has minor flaws or a slow pace, but is still worth reading. 3. Some books are deleted from my shelf as soon as I finish them. Those don't make the list at all. 4. My personal preferences have a big effect on romance stories, so take those recommendations with a grain of salt.

I don't know who started this bad habit, but the protagonist creates a high-quality work by cheating, and then sells it at a low price, making it worthless. Isn't this just a cheap trick? It's just stirring up trouble and ruining the market.
The main character's portrayal is too awkward.
I forced myself to read 32 chapters, and I feel the protagonist's character development is a complete failure. Some people like action-adventure stories, and some like the cautious, survival-oriented ones, but the author just seems to be trying to please everyone.
Shennong is here
As of May 21st, the latest chapter of this book is a harem novel with multiple female protagonists, set in a Western fantasy adventure. The protagonist's name, Lance, hints at something amiss. Many readers have expressed concerns about his initially cowardly and timid personality, but this isn't a major flaw; in fact, it's quite normal.
No need to argue anymore, I am Shennong.
This book has already reached 10,000 subscriptions, which is proof of its quality. A book with 10,000 subscriptions must have some special strengths. The reader engagement is very high. I recently caught up to the latest chapters, and each chapter has consistently garnered 20 to 40 comments, which is extremely rare for a paid chapter, especially considering it's all generated within a single day.
Classic Japanese Western Fantasy
Having watched so many Japanese Western fantasy stories, I don't understand why adventurers, who are supposed to be like mercenaries—a profession anyone can do as long as they're paid—have clear rank progression requirements. Shouldn't it be that whoever is the strongest gets paid?
At first glance, I hoped the protagonist would focus his energy on CCB rather than on being an adventurer.
To be honest, the power level is suppressed too much. Don't pay attention to what people say about the overly powerful plot device or that the story won't be long enough. How long do you want to write? One or two thousand pages? Normally, seven or eight hundred chapters is enough for the ending.
It looks great, 10,000 orders placed.
Unexpectedly, this novel has already earned a "Featured" badge, so I'm writing a review. (Already has 10,000 subscriptions, here's an update) 1. It's a multi-female lead novel, with some scenes of the female leads having sex later on. (However, the initial timidity shouldn't be too prominent; it's interspersed throughout, increasing in importance later, but not abruptly, with some obvious…
The protagonist's personality is basically the opposite of Lance's. Although both are harem heroes and love to randomly smash things, the protagonist is the kind who's constantly sweating and imprisoned in a chaotic scene with a hatchet. As the opposite of the sadistic hero, perhaps we should call him a god-like hero.
The story starts by describing the protagonist as cautious about this and that, but it's unclear what he's being cautious about. He's just an ordinary, penniless adventurer from the lower rungs of society, unable to even afford a cheap erotic novel. Yet, when turning in a herb-gathering quest, he deliberately chooses a less crowded counter—is he afraid someone will steal his herbs?
