〖Man Ci Pavilion〗The Spirit of Books, Words That Fill the World

I've browsed a little of all kinds of books. I like books with interesting values, original plots, and sensible characters. The way things play out should make sense. Some may not quite fit that description, but I have to read them first to know. So feel free to have a look. Wuxia, fantasy, historical fiction, xianxia, urban stories about business and politics, classical romance, game fanfiction, and more. (Sometimes I suddenly get into a certain genre for one reason or another.) (You can tell

Web Novels and Memories

Recommending some good novels I've read. My tastes are rather unusual, and my personal dealbreakers may be pretty specific. Things I dislike might be exactly what someone else likes.

Red Chamber Novels I’ve Enjoyed

2026.6.1 1. Most Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction falls under alternate history, but it's fundamentally different from conventional historical fiction. The unique charm of these stories lies in the lives of the women in the garden. If a book uses the title Dream of the Red Chamber but ignores the fates of the women throughout, then the words "Red Chamber" in the title are meaningless. If it's just a historical novel wearing a Red Chamber disguise, it would be better to write straight-up hist

Fanfiction Picks: No AI, Mainly The Mysterious, The Outcast, and Dream of the Red Chamber

I looked for recent fanfiction lists and found that most were from two or three years ago. Hardly any newer books had been added, so I made this list to recommend some. My ratings are entirely subjective, based mainly on the flow of the writing and the characterization. I score certain genres, such as Dream of the Red Chamber fanfiction, more strictly, so a book can be clearly better than works in other fandoms yet still receive the same rating. That's just how it goes. Think of the ratings as c

The Wave Reading List: Come Trade Waves with Me!

**If you like this list, please tap the heart. It keeps me going!! 1. The most important thing is that I can keep reading these books! The day I can’t, they come off the list! 2. Unless stated otherwise, every story has one heroine and one hero. I’ll mention it if there’s more than one. 3. I have particular standards for writing, plot, and all sorts of other things. Taken together, they should be pretty good. 4. Slow updates are fine, but I won’t add a book if the author seems likely to abandon
