Nothing Matters More Than Good Food
Food is more than just the food itself. It often carries culture, memories, emotions, and an outlook on life.
Relax and Read, Love What You Like
I've been reading novels for years, and I'm getting more and more fed up with formulaic plots. You know, the brainless rich second-generation types and street thugs who show up to cause trouble every two or three chapters. I've had enough. These days, I want stories where the protagonist doesn't force a tough-guy act, the side characters have brains, and the plot is easygoing rather than complicated.

These may be a little niche.
Forever Companions
Each book moved me unexpectedly, whether it was the title, the opening, or something else... Many big-name authors may have fallen on hard times and switched to other genres, or changed direction for other reasons, but there's no denying that their works once dominated an era.
If You Can't Write Romance, Don't Force It
I just realized quite a few books have either been abandoned or their authors have disappeared. So sad.
These Books Are No Ordinary Reads
I have broad tastes and read a bit of everything. When reading web novels, drop the ones you don't like. Otherwise, your reading list gets out of hand.

Easy Reading: I'm So Tired of the Devour-and-Absorb Trope!
These are simply books I like. Most are complete. I'm not too demanding, but I can't read just anything. What matters most is the author: some write one great book after another. Most titles here are ones I've read, and this list is a way to keep track of them. I'll add more whenever I think of it. Unfortunately, many older books have been locked away, so all I can do is recommend other books by their authors and note that. I really hate writers who disguise their work as Eastern-inspired fictio
Only Books I've Read and Can Recommend: Mostly Farming, Historical, and Fantasy
I only recommend good books I'm currently reading. Some don't show any fan support because they're new, or because I'm reading them on another account.

No Beginner-Friendly Stories. Eclectic Tastes, a Bit Unconventional, Updated Whenever
Books I've read or finished. Some seem great to me, but I just can't get into them. I'm an emotional guy with an engineering background, and I like to read with my brain switched on. I hope authors don't treat readers like fools. I want them to challenge me, keep me guessing, and draw me in. That's what wins me over... Sometimes a book makes me cry; sometimes I read female-oriented fiction... I just remembered my favorite line: Live by facing death. Thanks for following. Knowing there are so man
A Reading Log of Fifteen Years
A few little memories of the passion, unforgettable moments, sadness, and glory of days gone by! I, the Sword Swordsman, registered way earlier than Tiancan Tudou, by the way. Some of these novels are pretty representative. If one sounds like your cup of tea, check out the author’s other works too. They’re usually pretty good. I’ve been in a reading slump lately, so feel free to recommend any gems! Thanks! And please follow me. I’ll update this list every now and then when I find a good book tha
Reading List for Rereading
I was going to make a list of books so bad they'd need a warning, but then I realized I'd forgotten them all. My other list is about entertainment and feng shui, but there are other good books too, so I've put them here. When you have nothing to read, come back and catch up on these! I recommend books without any particular criteria.

[Comment] Someday
One day, Bai Lu will die. What about all the people he's been taking care of? They'll be like caged wild animals; they'll die if released back into nature. Bai Lu feels like a legendary insect, a worm that keeps crawling on itself, carrying everything it can reach on its back.
Those with connections have to fawn over you, the chef. Is your food poisonous? They'll die without it! A chef can be king? That's a fucking joke!
As always, those who like Tian Shi really like him, and those who don't really dislike him. It seems like Lao Tian should go back to writing urban novels; your new book just doesn't have the same feel as before. When it comes to urban novels, I admire Meng Hu, Lai Ha Ma, and Guai Chu—a good book is one that I can read multiple times without getting tired of it.
[Review] It's a pretty good book, but I stopped reading because the main character smacked his lips.
Is the main character born in the Year of the Dog? Why does he keep smacking his lips like that? Such a great book is ruined and disgusting because of that lip-smacking!
Does the protagonist really think he's a saint? He doesn't cherish what he should cherish, and just acts lawlessly all day long. Who does he think he is?

Looking back now, he was just a simp, treating women and men completely differently. The standard restaurant's pink label and black label are a joke. What does "women-only" even mean? Men are just a bunch of random people on the street.
I just finished reading it today; I'd been reading it as a backup plan. It's a novel, and some parts involve officialdom, so I recommend reading Hou Weidong's book for a more comprehensive understanding. It subtly promotes certain values, such as justice and kindness, even if the process isn't always beautiful.
The urban setting is really well-written. I like it. I've read this 6 million-word novel twice.
[Comment] I can't stand it anymore.
This is my first review. I initially liked the book, but later I felt something was off: 1. The protagonist uses helping others to mask his impulsive hormones; 2. The book implies that all his close friends are good people, while those who aren't are arrogant and should be killed or have their limbs severed; 3. The entire book is filled with a violent tendency.
