Reading List No. 3: Urban Fiction
This is the third one... I just saw that there's another categorized book-list event, and since I can make an urban fiction category, I went ahead and created one. Urban fiction has the most quality picks, after all. 【Here are my other three lists: Main list: long reviews focused on new sprouts, with over 20,000 followers and 35,000 without comments. You're welcome to follow! Fantasy list: mainly ongoing fantasy stories Sci-fi list: "Book List No. 4: Sci-Fi" Anime-related list: "Book List N
Books I've Read
Books with distinctive new ideas, fresh settings •ᴗ• and original concepts; seasoned writing and good storytelling. I personally bought every chapter. This also includes pioneering works of certain genres. Although some aspects may seem clichéd by today's standards, they are still well worth collecting as nostalgic reads. Updated irregularly. If there are books I particularly dislike, I may list them as well, partly as a warning to fellow readers.
Wonderful Novels
Unconventional, and quite fascinating
A Seasoned Reader's Picky Taste, After Nine Years or More
I don't write detailed reviews or descriptions for the books on this list. All I have to offer is my overall impression of each book and its author. It's just a bit of self-indulgence on my part. The list includes famous and obscure books, old and popular ones, and even some that are no longer available on Qidian. Only books with strong writing and plot make it onto this list.

These are all niche Japanese-style books!
Books I Think Are Good, with Smart Characters and Sound Logic
It's hard to find good books these days. Here are some that aren't dumbed down.
The Gallant Heroes: A Lingering Regret
Bold, cautious, upright, slick, gentle, mad, wise, foolish: all kinds of powerful people, but in the end, mostly kindhearted. A true man walks through the world with a clear conscience. How could he scrabble for profit or survival, stooping to any means necessary?
A Veteran Bookworm Recommends: Quality Reads That Won’t Disappoint

A Bookshelf Shaped by Time
There are no categories or special themes here. The only criterion is whether a book is good. The stories here are highly readable, with clear logic, consistent worldbuilding, and lucid prose that makes for a smooth read. There are plenty of forgotten gems here. Open one up, and you'll find yourself smiling in recognition. Someday, these books may become unavailable and disappear into the dust of history. Until then, let's remember them for a while.

I'll wait, I'll wait and see.
In 2014, I pretended to be a corpse. In 2015, I pretended to be a corpse for a few days. In 2017, you finally showed up. I am very self-restrained and patient. I am waiting to see you to see if you are still a corpse fake. Are you having surgery? What's wrong? Can you write? Can you give me an accurate answer?

Awesome, 141517 years, now 19 years.
The protagonist does men's things, and the author does the eunuch's work.

Talk about the speed-up results and continue the eunuch series. . .
This book is quite interesting in the early stage, and it well portrays the image of a male protagonist who started from scratch in a foreign country and gradually grew up. Many of the methods are still eye-catching even now. However, after the initial success, the male protagonist became more and more weird, and his writing became more and more anti-human. He described the plot here and there. The previous paragraph was still talking about this incident, and the next paragraph suddenly jumped to another unrelated matter, and the next paragraph jumped to another matter. There is no thread that connects the entire chapter, making the reading experience quite poor. There is no more new ideas in the direction of the plot, and there is no more spirituality like when Jiye was first founded.
When I first watched it, there was no starting point number, but I was so high that I haven't updated yet! Why on earth do I still put this book on my bookshelf?
The author has long since run away using other vests.
