The Ugly Beauty

Great Completed Historical Romance Novels, Part 1

This list is for completed historical romance novels only. It features works by Lin Jiacheng, Xunzhao Shiluode Aiqing, Ye Huimei, Han Wuji, Qing Tong Sui, Wei You, and Xi Xing. Some people have said this is just a collection of works by famous authors. Well, you could say that, except these just happen to be a few authors I like, and I enjoy most of their stories. I also think sorting them by author makes the list more organized. What can I say? I'm helpless here!!!

🍁 Pure as snow atop a mountain, bright as the moon among the clouds 🍁 I heard you had a change of heart, so I've come to end things with you 📓 Twelve historical romances by Lin Jiacheng 📓 Other historical romances, mostly excellent completed works There was a time, and a style of writing, that belonged to Lin Jiacheng. Some say the heroines in Lin Jiacheng's books are too melodramatic. But I think it's not so much that they're melodramatic as that they value love too much and themselves too l

A List Curator Who Can’t Write Reviews

(To the person who went out of your way to downvote this list: thanks for the effort! I didn't realize you had so little to do!) Everything here is something I've read and personally think is worth reading. I'm too lazy to write reviews. Whether a book is good is up to each reader, not something the list owner gets to decide. (Book recommendations welcome, any genre.) No genre restrictions.

Worlds I can get into

🍀🍀🍀🍀Books I've Read N Times🍀🍀🌼🌼🍀🍀

A little about me: I've been reading for many years, from my school days through my working life. I truly love the worlds books open up, each one full of wonders. I'm a woman, so I started with romance novels, then moved on to male-protagonist stories, fantasy, urban fiction, history, wuxia, sci-fi, celebrity fiction, and books about men and women. I love creative, entertaining stories with a single heroine that aren't dumbed down.

Recommendations for Female Readers

Honestly, most of the well-written female-oriented stories on Qidian are historical novels about rebirth and family intrigue. I hope to recommend some well-written books in other genres. This list is updated regularly...

Books I’ve Read Over the Years

Over the years, I’ve read works in all kinds of genres. Here I’m sharing the ones I personally think are good.

Books I Personally Enjoyed

Every genre is represented. I read pretty much anything.

The One Thing I Disdain Most Is Love

A delicate dice bears red beans, but do you know how longing cuts to the bone? Most willing to forget the poems of old, most dismissive of all is longing. Quality over quantity. No settling.

One Heart, One Love, For a Lifetime

A Rabbit's Reading Shelf

I enjoy all kinds of stories, so as an omnivorous rabbit, I thought I'd share some with everyone.

Do You Know How Deep My Longing Runs?

Red beans adorn the exquisite dice, yet love is the thing I disdain most. Of three thousand weak streams, I'll drink from just one. I'd rather go without than settle for less. Only period romances about one lifetime, one devoted couple.

A rest stop amid the hustle and bustle

Let the Flowers Bloom

A clever, strong heroine; no idiotic plotlines, and no completed stories where she's tortured again and again.

Farming, Transmigrate, and Reborn Stories: Classic Historical Romance I've Read Over the Years

Of all the novels I’ve read over the years, I’ve always had a special fondness for historical romances. Compared with the flashy modern romances, historical romances set in fictional worlds leave more room for the imagination. I love following authors as they spin tales from different times and places...
