Farming Fiction: No Empty Dreams, No Hollow Hype 🌾
🌹🌹🌹🌹 The farming novel is a label with a remarkably rich range of meanings. “Farming” first came from strategy video games. Players follow the principles of “build high walls, stockpile provisions, and delay claiming kingship,” quietly developing their own territory and gradually expanding their power until they conquer everything. It tests a player's ability to plan and coordinate. At its heart are striving, progress, and taking things one step at a time. Early farming novels were usually set
Relaxed Farming and Building on Farms and Fishing Grounds
Work and school can be stressful, so I like to unwind with relaxing, easygoing novels. Even if I can’t make it happen in real life, following the author and sharing in their farm or fishing-ground life, and dreaming up a place of my own to build, is a wonderful way to relax.
Books I Like, with Ideas and a Well-Developed World
My tastes are all over the place. I enjoy xianxia, xuanhuan, Western fantasy, fantasy, fanfiction, gaming, history, urban fiction, wuxia, farming novels, and more. I can appreciate them all. I especially like books with original ideas. Many books on this list may not be the best or the newest, and some are even ones I used to dislike, but I've read pretty much all of them,
Gazing at the Galaxy
I've gathered these books over time and revisit them whenever I'm between reads. The loneliness has long since faded like smoke. Of course, this list reflects my personal tastes: no harems or womanizers, and the plots tend to simmer slowly, like tofu stewing in a clay pot until all the flavors come through.
Some Great Books to Recommend
Here are some pretty good books I've read myself. If you like any of them, let's exchange recommendations for books we've read and found worthwhile.
Shared Discussion Zone
I created this list to share good books and discuss the ones everyone thinks are worth reading. All fellow readers are welcome to join the discussion.
A Big World in a Little House
I made this list to collect some books I've read and enjoyed, along with stories I'm following. They're here for everyone to check out. If you feel the same way, please follow and favorite the list. If it's not your thing, please don't be rude.
A Reading List for Myself
This is my personal reading list. Feel free to come in and save books with me. After the update, I finally found this long-lost list tucked away in a corner. I hope you can find something you want to read here.
My Favorites
I enjoy all kinds of genres, but especially fantasy, immortal cultivation, and otherworldly stories
Some Books I've Read. Real Life Is Tiring Enough; I Don't Want to Be Tortured by My Books, Too.
Some books I’ve read. Real life is exhausting enough, so I don’t want to be put through the wringer by a book too.
Green Curtain's Picks of Completed Novels
A veteran reader's tastes: I like a moderate amount of wish fulfillment, and most of my picks aren't harem novels! I can't stand face-slapping, harems, or excessive wish fulfillment. I've been reading novels for years and have collected some I think are good, ranked by stars, with five stars being the highest.
Whatever Strikes My Fancy
I'll add books as I come across them, whenever and wherever. New and old alike! I won't recommend lots of famous classics, since everyone already knows them! 🐼 This list has no genre limits and avoids formulaic stories. 🍈🍈🍈 Only original works written by people, no mass-produced "industrial products"! 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣
Nanshan Pavilion: Baixiaosheng
This is a list made by an old hand at reading. My interests are limited and my tastes are narrow. I like lying in a recliner on rainy days, listening to the rain and watching the ivy and flowers sway beside the window. A book, a cup of tea, and a calm, peaceful afternoon may be all I need. No need to think about troubles at work or worry about anything else. I might make a delicious meal or use a projector to watch a favorite movie. I simply go with the flow (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)!
Great Writing, Smart Characters, and Solid Logic
Just as the title says
Simplicity Is Truth, Happiness Comes First
Books I like, according to my personal taste.
Books I've Read
I record a book when I finish it. This list is mainly for books worth keeping, as well as some so bad I couldn’t finish them.
The Library of Time
Whether or not they’re classics, some books have left a deep mark on my memory. I’ve collected them here for us to enjoy together. The pleasures of life are little more than satisfying our appetites and finding joy in the things that nourish the spirit. A good book can bring the joy of reading straight to your heart. When I’m following some books, I hope the author will never finish them. Once they do, I can’t help starting over from the beginning. They might not suit your taste, but if you hap
All Kinds of Power-Fantasy Stories
Everyone in the world has a dream. Some hope for wealth, some for happiness, and others for a home. My wish is very small: I only want a quiet corner where I can peacefully lose myself in a world of books.
The Book Garden: Great Reads and Classics I've Finished
The best survive the test of time, and these are a few selected picks. Whether it's the prose, the plot, the originality, or just the sheer fun, each has something to offer.
Extreme Plays
I once read these words in a book: “Reading can dispel ignorance, overcome poverty, heal illness, strengthen resolve, broaden horizons, develop social skills, and sharpen the mind. It teaches us how to make friends, understand people, speak, act, and live in good health, body and soul. It helps us understand what kind of life can be called perfect and free of regrets.” Indeed, the benefits of reading are endless.
Weiri Shou Nuanyang's Reading List
Books are the ladders of human progress. They not only drive our development, but also open up a fresh realm of imagination where we can explore the future, as distant as the stars and shrouded in mystery. Perhaps in the moment when I touch a book heart to heart and draw close to it, I have already spread a pair of wings feathered with wisdom and begun to soar through a sea of books, forgetting myself in its depths...
Updated Irregularly
Living in this world of ours, it is utterly impossible to understand people without reading.
My Shelf Is Full, Saving These So I Don't Lose Them
Reading is enjoyable not because of what an author tells you, but because it makes you think actively. As you read, your imagination races through the pages, and your thoughts may become richer and more detailed than the author's own writing. That way, you don't just learn about the world and experience the author's life through a book; you also come to know yourself anew. But reading can only become a pleasure if you approach it with sincerity. If reading makes you nobler, wiser, kinder, and mo
Top-Tier Reads of Every Kind, Not to Be Missed
For people who love reading, life and books are inseparable. The relationship between people and books is close, because the spiritual nourishment we seek reflects our inner world. How could a refined reader lose themselves in shallow, obscure books? The kind of person you are shapes the books you read, and the books you read shape the person you become. Perhaps this isn't an absolute rule, but there's certainly some truth to it.

The author, well, seems to have never been abroad and has absolutely no common sense. International flights don't allow cooked food, yet the protagonist's mother gives him hard-boiled eggs 😅, which will result in hefty fines. I witnessed a $200 fine for an egg in New Zealand. And raising fish and eels in the US? There are laws against bringing in exotic species for farming there—that's suicidal.
I love farming novels, but unfortunately, there aren't many well-written ones. This author's farming novel is probably the best among qd's works. These past few days, I discovered a farming novel that's just as good, or even better: Back to the Mountains to Farm! I came here specifically to recommend it. You'll see for yourself once you read it. Why do I say it's better than Aldehyde Stone?
It's disgusting to constantly use the term "foreign woman" in Chinese; those three words carry a strong sexual connotation.
When I came back for archeology, I saw many people recommending him as the originator of overseas ranching. After reading more than ten chapters, I really couldn't stand it anymore. Many of the logic is inconsistent and common sense is lacking. Many book reviews don't look at the books of any year. To be honest, even if I saw them ten years ago, I would not be able to read them.
After reading over 80 chapters, it's definitely not a farming novel.
I gave up. As a seasoned bookworm, I couldn't stand it. It lacked any logic, strayed from the topic, and was full of trivial matters. It felt like it was just padding the word count.
I just want to ask if the main character simply got a green card or became a U. S. Citizen?
What are a bunch of freeloaders who read pirated copies doing here whining about? Is it even interesting? Don't they even know what year this book was published...?
This is the originator of the farming and ranching genre abroad; I haven't found anything earlier. Be forgiving. It's an 8-year-old novel.
The moon is brighter in foreign countries; please leave China behind when you write your book.
