A Young Lady’s Reading List
Books that keep readers turning the pages. I grew up reading books from my grandfather's study, like The Hu Family Generals, The Yang Family Generals, Tai Chi Master, Investiture of the Gods, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Historical fiction, wuxia, and myths and legends are my favorites. In middle school, when the girls in my class were reading Qiong Yao and Xi Juan, I was reading Jin Yong. I didn't fit in with the girls, but I didn't have much in common
Four Seasons of Spring: A Cozy Book Nook
Spring's beauty lies in its flowers bursting into bloom, their breathtaking colors, graceful elegance, delicate charm, and inviting fragrance... The riot of color, each flower vying to outshine the others in the spring breeze, is where its vitality shines through.
If You Enjoy Reading It, It's a Good Book
No fixed genre, but I've read every book on the list!
Obscure, Offbeat, and Hilarious
Anyway, these are the books I've read twice... Recommendations are welcome, but I only have so much time to test them out... I've removed all the books that are no longer available...
Completed Books I Personally Enjoyed
These are all books I've read and enjoyed. There are both old and new titles, but I only recommend books that are finished. I hate getting stuck in a story that never gets completed, so no matter how good an unfinished book is, I wouldn't dare recommend it. I don't want people holding a grudge against me.
A Reading List for My Own Amusement
Good Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction
Novels I Can Finish
I've been reading web novels for over ten years, and I've been on Qidian for more than 2,000 days. I'm very picky, and there aren't many books I can stick with to the end... If you're out of things to read, give these a try.
A Young Reader's Big Reading List
I wrote every review on this list myself. Of course, they're not very well written, and some are a bit long-winded. There may also be spoilers, intentional or otherwise. If you don't want to read me rambling, just look at the titles. Please bear with me! Every book on this list is one I've personally read all the way through. Quite a few I've read more than once. Good books stand the test of time. I read a pretty wide range of genres, and my taste isn't necessarily mainstream, so don't say thing
The Genius Little Pig's Five-Star Picks
Female-oriented novels I enjoyed, with few things to complain about.
Great Reads About Dream of the Red Chamber
I don't read Dream of the Red Chamber, only fan fiction based on it
My Reading Slump on Qidian
When life is weighed down by layer upon layer of negativity, why not take a breather in another world for a while?
Little Worlds
I love the world of novels. With you all, I'm never alone.
Books I Followed Back in the Day (●◡●)ﾉ
Stories with good writing and sound logic, and side characters who aren't idiots. A story needs at least one of these: writing, logic, plot, or intelligent characters. If all else fails, a good plot will do. I hate one-dimensional male or female leads, especially when it's painfully obvious in a sprawling harem story.
Novels That Left Lasting Memories
Memorable novels I've read over the past eight or nine years
Tianyi Academy
Good books I've read, including both mainstream and female-oriented fiction. These are mainly recent works that I still think are good!
A Mixed Bag of Books
A bit of everything. I'm just recommending the good books I've read

For My Own Enjoyment in My Spare Time

Talking to myself
Great Authors and Must-Reads
The few web novels I've read, and they're all great!
Ten Years of Reading
After ten years of reading on Qidian, my tastes have become pretty discerning. I only include top-notch books. Lately, I've been into stories set in specific historical periods. I'm often in a reading slump, so I'll keep updating this list. 💐💐💐
Beautifully Written
I read pretty much everything except horror and stories about womanizers. Everything I recommend is something I've read and thought was good.
Some Books I've Read
A bit of everything. They don't have to be the best, just suit my taste!

The story is not bad, but there are many bugs. For example, going from Jinling to Youzhou, you will pass by Yellow Crane Tower along the way, and the last stop in Youzhou is Jingzhou... I feel like I'm going to laugh out loud. Does the author know where Jinling, Jingzhou, and Youzhou are?
The comment section said that this article cannot withstand scrutiny, which is indeed true. I just saw Chapter 2 and there are all kinds of bugs. Since Lin Ruhai knew that the Jia family had killed her unborn child, she still sent this one alive. You don't know what your daughter's character is?
I'd like to ask if there are any novels where the protagonist travels through time or is reborn in the Dream of the Red Chamber to fight for supremacy?
This is a female-oriented novel, and to my utmost sarcasm...
I couldn't continue reading when they portrayed my favorite characters, Xiangyun and Baochai, so poorly. What kind of nonsense is this? They completely distorted the characters' personalities!
This Lin Daiyu is so simplistic and annoying to watch; she has absolutely no wisdom.
Of all the books written about Dream of the Red Chamber, this is my favorite. I feel that it takes a very good approach to the story and has little impact on the original feeling of Dream of the Red Chamber.
I'm disgusted. Forcibly changing character personalities for the sake of the plot, and they even have the nerve to justify it? Saying it's just fan fiction? Author, do you even know what fan fiction is? Fan fiction usually adheres to the original characters' settings and worldviews. True fans have even higher expectations.
After reading more than forty chapters, here are my thoughts: I feel the author's writing style is decent, with a few typos and no major errors, but there are still some issues. First, there are too many inexplicable characters, such as servants, maids, relatives and children created out of thin air, and unknown scholars, officials, and nobles...
Why are all the reviews negative? The writing is clearly very good! A novel with a strong Dream of the Red Chamber feel. However, this work doesn't cater to the audience and isn't a typical "feel-good" story. If you're tired of "brothel" fanfiction, you should check this one out. It's not a perfect novel, but it's definitely worth reading!
