Remembering the Great Books I’ve Read

Interesting, Smart Reads for Passing the Time: Neither Pretentious nor Dumbed Down
1. At least decent fare, with prose that's readable. 2. The premise or plot should be interesting. No need to bother with mediocre works. I'm no literary intellectual, but I do have some standards for prose. I was pickier about what I read early on. These days I'm tired from work and often just want something light, but I can't stand mindless power-ups and endless hookups. This list is based on those standards. I think these books are pretty good, and ideally they have something special. I've
Some Truly Worthwhile Book Recommendations
I mainly read fantasy and online-game novels, and hardly ever read urban or historical fiction. It's not easy to find a book I can stick with, so I often check out other people's reading lists and get a lot out of them. I'm updating my own list too, in case anyone comes across it and wants to share recommendations. I'm pretty picky about what I read. The flaws I point out are things I've noticed looking back after finishing a book. As the saying goes, a few flaws don't outweigh its merits, so I

What can ease your worries? A reading drought. What can ease that drought? Reading. I personally prefer physical books, and most of my recommendations have print editions. They're all worth a read. There are too many books, so I've put fantasy novels on a separate list.

Personal Reading List | A Storehouse of Plot-Driven Reads
I prefer stories focused on careers. The most important thing is an interesting plot, followed by a well-rounded one. Good writing means telling a good story, not piling on fancy words. Multiple heroines or romantic ambiguity are major drawbacks for me, though that doesn't mean the list has none.

Books I've Collected and Finished, and That Left an Impression (Mostly Complete)
From childhood to adulthood, all kinds of things have moved me, and all kinds of books have touched my heart. Was it the books that moved me, or did I happen upon them at just the right time? Since starting work, I haven't had much time to read. I pick up books here and there, in little fragments, so the emotions never really build or linger. I've still finished a few, though. I'll make time to catch up on the good ones.

2017.07.25: 2,000 followers. My selection criteria: 1. The views on life and human nature align with mine; 2. The writing flows well, and the characters are vivid and distinctive; 3. The book once set the trend; 4. It has earned mainstream recognition, such as strong print sales or a film or TV adaptation. Of course, most important of all, it has to be my kind of book. Sometimes a book suddenly disappears, reminding me that in the end, I'm just an insignificant speck.

All the books here are ones I think are pretty good. Note: 1. Overall, I prefer lighthearted stories, though that doesn't mean I dislike other kinds. 2. Aside from absolute classics, I'll keep books by authors who have disappeared or abandoned their stories on the list for a while, then remove them. P.S. Lately, I've found several authors who've dropped their stories are thinking of picking them back up. Some have already started working on them. Of course, just because I like a book doesn't me

Thoughts after the supplementary subscription
I've read it several times and still can't believe it's from 2005. I just looked up some online games from the same period, and sure enough, they all follow the same formula. Especially books by Mars, Snail, and Lost Leaf, where the protagonist starts with a hidden class and hidden skills, bumps into a brainless rich kid, and incurs the wrath of his father's murder.
This is my favorite book. Although The King's Avatar is better in terms of character development and plot, this one captures the essence of wuxia (martial arts) in my mind.
I feel this is the best book by the author.
I've read this book three times already. It has a bit of the Lu Xiaofeng vibe. I even shipped Liu Yue and Feng Xiaoxiao as a couple back then.
This is the first book by "Bug Daddy," brimming with the flavor of the martial arts world. Although it has many plot holes, the writing style is unrestrained and free. "The King's Awakening" is excellent, but ultimately a bit too commercial. "The Road to Awakening" is updating too slowly. His new gaming novel is another "Honor of Kings" story; I wish it were "League of Legends." I really don't want to read "Honor of Kings." The people in "Bug Daddy's" world are all really nice.
Personally, I think Butterfly Blue's best works are The King's Avatar and this novel, Lone Ranger.
To be honest, I really miss the novels of the past, with their diverse styles and vibrant atmosphere. There were novels like *How a Villain is Made*, *Buddha is the Way*, *Zhu Xian*, *A Mortal's Journey*, *The Thief's Journey*, *The Thief's Courage*, *Brave the World*, *Black List 1/2*, *Human Weapon*, *Global Sword Tournament*, *Zi Chuan*, *The Law of the Devil*, *Qing Xu*, *Zodiac Guardian*…
After finishing "A Year of Full-Time Worker," I had little interest in reading other novels until I stumbled upon "Wandering the World Alone" by Chong Die. I read it once and have been listening to audiobooks on Himalaya FM ever since, at least three times in total. To be honest, the beginning was really off-putting, but Chong Die's style is often to start poorly and end brilliantly.
Everyone understands the martial arts world from a different perspective. My ideal martial arts world is one of freedom and unrestrained spirit; I admire characters like Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang. I've read this book and "Melee Mage" at least three times. I can't get into the others, like "Butterfly." I've lost the gaming mentality I like. Feng Xiaoxiao is just an ordinary person; if he wants to work hard, he works hard; if he's tired, he takes a break.
"Full-Time Master" was written with inspiration from the modern e-sports environment and Dungeon Fighter Online (DNF). The author, Butterfly Blue, didn't need to overthink the setting; he just needed to write a compelling story and exciting matches. "Lone Ranger" and "Melee Mage" truly showcased Butterfly Blue's creativity and imagination.
