Personal Reading List
I don't know how to put it
Relaxing Reads to Unwind
There's plenty of pressure in life, so why not look for comfort in a book? All I want is something relaxing, even if it's a little simple. Every book on this list has been read carefully by me, so updates are slow. After all, you have to take your time with a book. Ahem, you can't finish one in a day or two, right? I'm in a reading slump...
The Most Satisfying Reading List Ever
Follow the list so you don't lose your way. I'll take you on the fast lane. If you like science fiction, check out my genre list: [The Future, the Apocalypse, and Infinite Worlds] If you like martial arts, check out my second genre list: [A Grand Collection of Traditional Martial Arts] I've organized the list.

Fantasy
I enjoy xuanhuan, wuxia, xianxia, urban entertainment, and more. If you like the list, please follow and share it. I like novels where the golden finger isn't too powerful, where the protagonist has to work hard to improve, and where martial arts are cleverly developed. In entertainment novels, why just copy everything? Why not come up with creative plots, improve your writing, and show the hard work behind performing, singing, and acting? If the protagonist's skills just magically improve, with

Books I Still Feel Like Rereading After Finishing
Some books stay with you. Long after you've finished one, you might suddenly remember a scene and find yourself rereading the whole thing. I generally prefer historical and urban novels, and don't care for fantasy or similar genres, unless they're exceptionally well written.

No Mindless Stories: Judged with Unwavering Optimism
This list doesn't stick to any one genre, but the main criteria are writing, plot, and realism‼(•'╻'• )꒳ᵒ꒳ᵎᵎᵎ There are very few xianxia and xuanhuan novels, since I'm not keen on stories where people go around wiping out entire families at the drop of a hat.

One of the biggest drawbacks of this book is that the protagonist did not position himself correctly. You were the only screenwriter and director in Hong Kong worth 5 million at the time, so your status surpassed Bruce Lee to a certain extent, because you can create a star at will, but Bruce Lee does not have a good script and director, so his popularity will naturally become lower and lower.
The protagonist is mentally unstable; I can't stand watching him demean himself, destined to be Bruce Lee's underling.
This book should be called, The New King of Slaves.
The protagonist of this book is a complete sycophant. It's not that Bruce Lee was bad, but you should try to become as famous as him. Whether you sycophantically follow Bruce Lee or not, you'll be a world superstar. Personally, I think the only world superstars are Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson.
This is very well written! I'm subscribing to the whole thing! It's really rare to find a story without harem elements!
Was Bruce Lee really as amazing as everyone says? I personally don't like his movies; his personality is too arrogant, and the protagonist gets a second chance at life just to chase after a star?
I've read dozens of chapters, and everything else is fine, except for one thing that's absolutely disgusting! Every chapter starts with a bunch of author-sponsored posts asking for votes. Aside from padding the word count, it really pulls you out of the story and makes it incredibly frustrating to read! It's like watching TV, with commercials popping up every five minutes – it's so damn annoying!
Ye
Back then, I even followed the updates closely; looking back, ten years have passed. 😭
I started watching because of Angie Chiu, but I couldn't continue before the female lead even appeared. I really have no liking for protagonists who are reborn and become experts in everything. Especially those chapters about training the Seven Little Fortunes—don't you know the phrase "forcing growth"? You've changed their lives; how can you be sure they'll achieve what they did in their later lives?
