A Veteran Reader of Ten Years: Must-Reads to Beat a Reading Slump, Even If It Means Staying Up All Night
I've been reading for over a decade, and this list reflects my personal taste. I'm not into womanizing protagonists or harem novels. I prefer stories with sound values, and I read a bit of everything, both for men and women. I only recommend what I think is worth reading. I won't recommend the big-name books on the rankings. I'll stick to less popular ones, and I only recommend books good enough to keep me up at night reading.

Must-Read Thrillers

Devoted Couples, Few Toxic Characters, One-on-One Romance, Positive Vibes, and Heartwarming Reads
I don't like too many over-the-top characters. I don't like misunderstandings that drag on forever. I don't like overly exaggerated golden fingers. I like protagonists who work hard to improve themselves 👍 I like romances where the leads have a steady relationship 🌼 I like sweet, cozy, heartwarming stories. One couple only, please 🌹 No tragic, tortured love stories 🌴 P.S. I'm a delicate soul 💔 with limited brainpower, so I can only handle sweet, lighthearted stories. Intricate power plays are to

This list hadn’t been updated in ages. I suddenly realized that I’d lost track of so many books!!! Books of all kinds are collected here. Feel free to browse. If you find something you like, please give it a thumbs-up to show your support. I’ll pin books from time to time based on their number of likes! Quick transmigration stories, or similar ones. I’m really into them lately. Quick transmigration seems to have evolved from infinite-flow novels. I think the male-oriented version is called infi
♡A Mixed Bag of Books♥
Most of these are books I've read myself and enjoyed ^ω^, the ones I like. There's a pretty wide mix, mostly xianxia and fantasy, with a few other genres thrown in. ~_~ I tend to get interested in different topics at different times, and sometimes I remember a book I read ages ago and add it here, so the list is a bit eclectic. =^_^= But hunting for books in a mixed collection is fun too! ❀ My favorite thing is searching for books everywhere and adding them to my bookshelf, even if I might never

A Web-Novel Haven for My Spare Time
I usually read printed books, but in recent years I've also read some web novels to learn more about the people and customs of different circles. So, taking advantage of this event, I've put together a little list of works I appreciate, making them easier to revisit and review. P.S. The books here can be old or new; age doesn't matter. It's all about quality and whether they catch my eye.

The Daoist Lord of Hongchen
The main point: I only thought of making this list so I could recommend The Daoist Lord of Hongchen. That's the important bit, underline it. (The book has been abandoned now. I'm heartbroken (｡•́︿•̀｡)) A little bit of everything. I'll add books I enjoy. 1. The writing is pretty good across the board. No shallow wish-fulfillment novels. 2. No saintly characters, Taiwanese-style dialogue, or harem stories. 3. I have a soft spot for reborn stories, and only recommend romance between a man and a wom

Great Stories I'll Revisit After Finishing, With One Rule: No Angst
I love discovering new authors, but I love many established authors even more. The books here may be bestsellers or may not be especially popular, but they are always smoothly written, well organized, logically sound, humorous and satisfying, or filled with positive ideas. They make me itch with anticipation while I'm following them, and after finishing them, I want to read them again, twice, three times. That's what I hope for... (This list will be continued...)
No Fluff, No Soap-Opera Drama
Heartfelt recommendations from a reader of twenty years: no beginner-level novels and no formulaic tropes.
Books Worth Giving a Second Chance
Books I've read twice or more.

No matter what, I hate that you killed off Little Foodie. Such a lovely child, a child who should have had a happy life. His life was simple: he loved to eat, loved Jia Yuan, a simple person. Don't say Jia Yuan is a thorny rose, that she's more beautiful without the thorns. Is a rose still a complete rose without the thorns? A flawed rose is only beautiful as a flower.
It's a miracle the female lead didn't bind her daughter's feet, haha! Later, she hires a tutor to teach Lin Daiyu, Xiangyun, and Tanchun... The Four Books. I almost vomited watching it! At least the South had women's reading societies! Please, talent equals being a "skinny horse" (a derogatory term for a woman who is beautiful but short-lived), where did this feudal thinking come from?
I don't know if it's true that natives are inherently inferior to transmigrated or reborn protagonists? Jia Hu only wanted the warmth of his parents and relatives, was that wrong? Forcing him to shut himself off and die, author, you must be feeling good now!
It's very well written. The author's analysis of the characters in Dream of the Red Chamber is very insightful and enlightening, and it suits my taste perfectly.
How can you turn a maid into a traveler, yet keep your own family members mediocre? What kind of nonsense is this?
Oh dear... I don't know how to say it, it's like a bolt from the blue! The very first chapter shows the protagonist transmigrating into the body of Bao Yu's mother, who is giving birth!? What?! My scalp is tingling!!
This emperor is truly filthy. So what if he admits the female lead is exceptionally talented? She didn't eat or drink anything from his house. He's just pushing his luck.
My god, what did I just see? 15 Works, I'm in awe of this master!
