My Book List
Mostly books that catch my eye
History, Modern Life, Games, and Fantasy; Laughs, Passion, Grit, and Humanity
2017.07.25: 2,000 followers. My selection criteria: 1. The views on life and human nature align with mine; 2. The writing flows well, and the characters are vivid and distinctive; 3. The book once set the trend; 4. It has earned mainstream recognition, such as strong print sales or a film or TV adaptation. Of course, most important of all, it has to be my kind of book. Sometimes a book suddenly disappears, reminding me that in the end, I'm just an insignificant speck.

A list specially recommended for beginners. Seasoned readers have probably read these already, so they can skip it. Top-quality books to start with: completed novels over a million characters long.
My To-Read List
I'm a woman who likes male-oriented novels. My taste is all over the place, but I won't read anything with poor writing or a weak plot.

An Old Bookworm's Reading Log (Completed Books Only)
I've been reading web novels for over ten years. Many times, I've been moved by what I read, only to slowly forget it all. I wanted a place to collect those memories. Where should I put them? Right here, I guess...
Books That Once Brought Me Joy
I've read who knows how many web novels. I've certainly wasted a lot of my life, but I'm still grateful for all the classics that brought me joy. Here's a selection of books I like or used to like, to share with you.
My Taste: Carefully Selected
The heroine is pretty inspiring, and the hero isn't an idiot Updates are a little slow
Reliable Picks: Historical and Urban Fiction
Most of these are historical novels I've read over the past few years and think are worth recommending. Occasionally a non-historical novel sneaks in. I've read every one and picked them out carefully, based on coherent logic, good writing, interesting ideas, or simply how entertaining they are. There's no rating or ranking here. Pick whichever one you're drawn to and see where it takes you. Finally, thanks for following my list. Whenever I find a good book, I'll add it right away.
_Gui Cang_
I'm not good at writing reviews. I've been an avid reader for six years. I update this list from time to time, and every book here is one I think is worth reading. If I come across something awful, I remove it. Feel free to recommend books in the comments. I'll check them out, and if they're good, I'll add them to the list.
Dreams and Reality
I enjoy historical novels, and there are also a few about youthful dreams.

There is something I really don't like saying. Author, please don't let the protagonist sneer at every turn, and sneer at every turn. People who can sneer are either in high positions or have deep thoughts. Do you think you are great just because you are a time traveler? It's okay to sneer.
The author's literary and historical standards are very high, and his characterizations are vivid and distinctive, which deserves recognition. But the protagonist feels that he has no interest in life at all, and even finding a wife is just to complete the task. Unlike a normal man, no matter how high the official position is, there is not much meaning, not to mention that in ancient times, no matter how high the position was, the emperor could finish you off with just one sentence. As a result, readers have no passion to continue reading.
To be honest, this is not a time-travel novel at all. I just borrowed a time-traveler's skin and wrote an ancient life novel similar to Dream of Red Mansions. The intrigues of a time-traveler may not necessarily be great, but the knowledge beyond hundreds of years must be there. However, the protagonist is never seen taking advantage of her own advantages from beginning to end. She is always just like the ancients, being submissive to power. This is probably a historical life novel written by a female author who thinks she is good at classical literature and has rich historical knowledge. There is no need to think about making achievements, changing the course of history, and promoting Chinese civilization. With the character and vision of the protagonist, it is impossible to happen.
This is my favorite book, like it
It turns out that the author is a female. There are so many unreasonable things in this book. There is one thing that I don't understand very much. The male protagonist married the family's housekeeper, Lingxi, to Peng Shisan, the slave of Zhang Fu's family. It is equivalent to letting the British public know the privacy of his entire family's inner house, including his family fortune. With such a huge hidden danger, no one in the male protagonist's family objected, and ninety-nine times Lingxi's parents were the old lady's companions. How could he possibly agree to marry his daughter outside? Lingxi would either be a concubine, die, or end up alone with her hair pulled back and become a nanny. How could she be allowed to marry an outsider? Not to mention how could a well-dressed and well-fed housekeeper of a great aristocracy fall in love with a stinky warrior who had nothing?
The setting is seriously inconsistent. As a highly educated time-traveling adult, you have only copied a few poems and articles, and have not applied any knowledge of future generations. You fight in the palace every day, and you are always pitiful and compassionate. You have not done anything to improve productivity or improve people's lives. It is extremely poisonous!
Zhumen's book has a very high level of attainment and can sweep the Internet. The only one that can rival the historical time travel category is Yasao. After reading these two books, I can only go back to the sea and the clouds in Wushan.
I just discovered that reading the entire novel costs about 15,000 reading points, which is 150 RMB. Xiba, spending 150 RMB to read an online novel, isn't this a scam?
I suggest female channel authors not to write on male channels. It's really embarrassing.
According to my understanding, when Lingxi said she wanted to marry Peng Shisan, my first reaction was to kill her. This is just too weird. Lingxi's quality of life is comparable to that of Mrs. Gaoming, the housekeeper of a noble family. How could she say that I want to marry an old husband whose wife is dead or a general of another family?
