A Mixed Bag of Books

I like stories about fighting for power within a household, and I also like palace-intrigue stories. I have to say, Qidian's historical romances are generally quite good. I also enjoy romance and supernatural powers. I'm not as keen on ghost stories because I'm a scaredy-cat, but when I find a good one, I can't help taking a look. This list isn't just for female-oriented fiction. I'll also recommend books from the main site if they're good. The list is brand new, so please show it some love!

Mo Yan's Reading List

I've personally tried these out, and I think they're really good. They're all ongoing historical romances that I'm following, and I like them. Most are currently updating. I usually delete a book once I've finished it, or if I don't like it. I prefer newer books. Haha.

Women’s Fiction So Good You Can’t Put It Down

I registered on Qidian in 2005 and became a high-level VIP member in 2008. That's ten years as a VIP, not counting the three years before that. I started out reading the main site, and there's no need to mention big names like San Shao and Fanqie. I'd read just about every popular book from back then. Later, when Qidian launched its women's fiction section, I gradually started reading more of that. Early on, very few women's fiction books could compete with the main site's appeal. Then I realize

Peach Blossoms by the Pond 🌸 (Old List)

♚ Great historical romance, transmigration, rebirth, and household-intrigue stories for female readers ♚ I've updated the comments (tap the top-right corner and select “Show list owner's comments only”) ♚ The comments won't recommend only historical romance, but everything I've read there is good~(˘▾˘~) Of course, the list owner also rambles a bit (๑˙❥˙๑) ♚ I mainly recommend completed novels, so there may be quite a few older ones (✿ฺ-ω-) ♚( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)✧

Favorites From Kindle to Qidian

For the past couple of years, I’ve mostly been reading historical romance. The older I get, the harder it is to accept how novelists understand and portray real life. Good historical romances are easier to find and enjoy than contemporary romances, after all, their settings are unfamiliar to me.

Some stories are wonderful, but I never go back to read them, because the sadness they left me with far outweighs the warmth. Some wonderful stories are ones I return to again and again, because the more I revisit them, the warmer they make me feel. Zhizhi’s stories have just that kind
