I've Read These Myself, Here Are a Few for You
Here are some books I like. I'll update the list from time to time. By the way, the authors of other lists are so diligent. I'm impressed. If you like this list, feel free to follow it. Thanks!
Tales of the Strange
Mostly supernatural fiction, like fantasy and dark fairy tales. There are quite a few obscure novels here. I have pretty particular tastes, but I'll recommend books I think are well-written and better than average. I can be picky, so don't be surprised if I drop a book. The list has limited space, so I'll add and remove books as needed.
Some Books I Think Are Pretty Good
Books I've read and thought worth recommending to everyone.
Some Truly Worthwhile Book Recommendations
I mainly read fantasy and online-game novels, and hardly ever read urban or historical fiction. It's not easy to find a book I can stick with, so I often check out other people's reading lists and get a lot out of them. I'm updating my own list too, in case anyone comes across it and wants to share recommendations. I'm pretty picky about what I read. The flaws I point out are things I've noticed looking back after finishing a book. As the saying goes, a few flaws don't outweigh its merits, so I

Strolling Across the Page, Lost in Time
Nothing is perfect, and web fiction is no exception! A recommendation doesn't mean a book is flawless, and criticism doesn't mean I don't love it. This list thrives on both praise and criticism! My three tiers of web fiction: Lower tier: familiar formulas (lots of tropes, plenty to read) Middle tier: boundless imagination (bold ideas and unexpected twists) Upper tier: joy, sorrow, love, and hate (stories that move you endure) Everyone loves an Immortal Grass masterpiece, but such books are rare

Classics and Hidden Gems: Plenty of Quality Reads
A ten-year veteran reader's personal thoughts. Every book gets a long, detailed review discussing its strengths and weaknesses. This list mainly features xianxia and fantasy, with some urban, historical, and other works as well. I recommend both promising new stories and classics. Ratings are based on stars, with six stars as the maximum: ☆☆☆☆☆☆. The ratings place greater weight on the setting. Review criteria: 1. Prose. I don't recommend books with bad writing. Maximum: two stars. ☆☆ 2. Setti

Good books I've read
Chinese Entertainment, Decisive, Sensible, Laid-Back Farming, Levelheaded
👍 If you're passing by, please follow, leave a review, and check out these top picks. I recommend all sorts of books, a real mixed bag. I've read most of them, and most have just one female lead. Full of wild ideas, with protagonists who are only one part of the world, not necessarily at its center. Not everything revolves around them. Almost no melodramatic plots, and the characters don't show off without reason. These books have a bit more class. The protagonists have feelings but aren't self-
Books I Like, with Ideas and a Well-Developed World
My tastes are all over the place. I enjoy xianxia, xuanhuan, Western fantasy, fantasy, fanfiction, gaming, history, urban fiction, wuxia, farming novels, and more. I can appreciate them all. I especially like books with original ideas. Many books on this list may not be the best or the newest, and some are even ones I used to dislike, but I've read pretty much all of them,
Fengxi Night Rain, Ode to Xuanhuang
Books I like
A Colorful World
Gather the blossoms while they're there to pick; don't wait until all the flowers are gone and all you can do is break off bare branches.
I've Never Found Another Book as Stunning Since
I like books that have something distinctive about them. No books that are too padded or have protagonists with laughably low intelligence. Not every book can be perfect, but we can still look forward to the things that make each one stand out.

Mainly classical xianxia
A Personal List, Full of Bias
Ranked purely according to my personal taste Tier 1: Breathtaking Tier 2: Fun Tier 3: Excellent Tier 4: Entertaining Tier 5: A satisfying read that's not bad Tier 6: Boring (worth a look if you're really desperate for something to read) Tier 7: Trash (don't read it even if you're desperate)
Recommended by a Veteran Reader, Not for Beginners!
Recommended classics. I started reading novels at fifteen, and I'm forty-two this year, so that's nearly twenty-four years! From the Four Great Classical Novels to Jin Yong, Gu Long, and Wen Rui'an, from bookstores to web fiction... Reading is not just a pleasure; it also takes thought. Online novels are becoming increasingly childish and vulgar, and there are fewer and fewer classics... There are more and more garbage System stories!

Really good!
Masterpieces I've Read Over the Years
An author's knowledge and understanding are limited. Before they keep learning, most people can only write one kind of story, one good book. Authors who keep broadening their horizons and pushing beyond their limits are rare! I'll update the list gradually. I've read all the books here, and I only include one book per author!

The toad never wrote another novel that could rival the Immortal Gourd.
Reading this novel was truly enjoyable. The characters are incredibly objective, treating everything with utter objectivity. For example, they consider magical artifacts useless to themselves as mere trifles, never risking their lives for them.
The main typos in this article are: 1. Rěn, not ; 2. A sneer, not a smug laugh, but a gentle sneer; 3. (Qí) is not the same as (shénqí).
Toad, if you're testing the waters with your new book and still trying to control the comments, that's really pointless. Just silencing people completely, what's the point of testing the waters with a new book?
This is my favorite frog artwork.
Its towering cliffs set it apart from ordinary books; its lofty perspective and forward-thinking approach set it apart from the crowd. A culmination of the Toad School's imaginative sensibilities, it is expansive, unrestrained, and utterly extraordinary. The story possesses a touch of Taoist and Zen wisdom; if not for the occasional flaws of the Toad School, this book could be considered the premier Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) novel.
Immortal Gourd was the first Xianxia book I read by Hama, followed by Brahma, and then Crimson City. It's a pity they changed the setting after Crimson City. Actually, Hama's Xianxia is the Xianxia of my dreams.
This is the pinnacle of Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) novels, bar none!
Pure Yang Immortal Ascension Method
I haven't seen anyone summarize the method for achieving immortality from pure Yang primordial spirit, so I'll summarize it myself. In the future, fellow Daoists who travel to the Immortal Gourd Universe, please remember to help your brothers. 72 Pure Yang, 18 Immortals, One Creator Pure Yang:
Such a good book, only 68 discussions, it's a shame.
I've read over 200 chapters so far. To be honest, it's a good book, but it will only please a small group of readers. Firstly, the language is rather plain, which many find difficult to understand. Secondly, the narrative is a bit drawn out and unclear; the protagonist's purpose is often only revealed later, leaving readers confused.
