Please follow and save this list! ... Many of these books are completed, because waiting for updates is painful. Qidian books are usually great early on, then tend to go off the rails later. Our motto: don’t waste your money! (Though I can’t help it either.) ... The biggest problem with mainstream genre fiction is that it can’t write romance. I haven’t seen a book on Qidian that gives its heroine real depth. Could Qidian start a writing workshop? Have the site’s editors teach the classes: theory

Strolling Across the Page, Lost in Time
Nothing is perfect, and web fiction is no exception! A recommendation doesn't mean a book is flawless, and criticism doesn't mean I don't love it. This list thrives on both praise and criticism! My three tiers of web fiction: Lower tier: familiar formulas (lots of tropes, plenty to read) Middle tier: boundless imagination (bold ideas and unexpected twists) Upper tier: joy, sorrow, love, and hate (stories that move you endure) Everyone loves an Immortal Grass masterpiece, but such books are rare
No System, More Exciting
There are so many System novels that I'm tired of reading them. It feels like today's authors can't write a novel without giving it a System, or some other golden finger. The result is a flood of books of wildly varying quality. In truth, writing a great story without a System is the real achievement, and it's more likely to produce a masterpiece.

I've Been Reading for Ages and Got Bored, So I Made a List: Urban, Historical, Sports, and More
After all these years of reading, there are always a few books you can count on
My Reading List
Ten years as a reader. Here are some great books.
Highly Recommended, Worth Collecting, and Cleverly Written
Classics I've read
Power Trips with a Strong Male Lead
This list mainly collects novels I've read over the years and found engaging, with plots that make sense in real life. But if you're looking for System novels and expect them to be logical, this isn't the list for you. Feel free to move along.
Novels That Should Appeal to Women (Not Romance), Mostly Older Books
None of these genres are particularly popular.
My Bookhouse
I'm making a list of books that I've read and still remember clearly, to help me remember them. Even if I forget, I can find them here. I can also recommend good books I've read to fellow readers, and find books they suggest in the comments. I might even discover something great that I've never read. Good books are getting harder and harder to find.
Hunting for Books Is Like Panning for Gold ✨✨✨
Finding a good book you actually like in the vast sea of books is truly rare... Choosing books takes a lot of time. I do not have time to keep up with most of the books I add, so the only thing I can guarantee about the books I share is their quality when I added them... This list has started raising promising new works. Requirements for recommendations: steady updates and sound values! I generally keep a recommendation for a week. Those that suit my taste will stay! If you like them, please giv
A Ten-Year Veteran Bookworm's Eclectic Collection, All Books That Suit My Personal Taste.
I have been reading for fifteen years, and my tastes have become quite varied. That is why my list will not contain low-intelligence, mindless wish-fulfillment novels built around forced face-slapping. I like books with strong logic and storytelling. Let us see whether anyone shares my tastes.
Dark Fiction and the Post-Apocalypse I Love
Only darkness can make me shiver, tremble, and feel excited.
Novels I Love
Every Trade Has Its Top Talent
I read these for fun and to learn. There's always more to learn 😃 I haven't updated this list in ages. Follow it if you like (*σ´∀`)σ Also, please recommend some new books! [So why does a girl like me recommend nothing but male-oriented novels? (°ー°〃)] [I found several books I finished and wanted to add, but they've all 404'd =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪ ‧̣̥̇)] Since there are three hundred and sixty professions, most of these are urban novels.
A Tasty Mix of Reads
Personal favorites.
Good Reads with One Main Female Lead, If Possible
Whether there's one female lead or not, the most important thing is that I can keep reading. That said, I prefer single-romance novels, especially ones with rational, dark, technological, gaming, or urban themes.
Books with Heart
The more you read without thinking, the more you feel you know. But the more you read and reflect, the more clearly you see how little you know.
Professional Niche Fiction
Mostly niche, lesser-known stories about specific professions
My Picks, My Rules
A good story also needs good writing, and good writing also needs a solid structure. Most importantly, I have personally tested every one of them...
Books Worth Collecting
Books I've collected over the years
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"! 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣

[Comment] A suggestion
One suggestion: the author should specify the approximate price of a painting of the protagonist from different periods. We ordinary people can only judge art through the evil power of money.
I'd say it's fortunate I didn't read the book reviews before reading it; there are indeed very few art novels, and this book really suited my taste. First, let's talk about the professional aspects. I'm an art student, so when I discovered this book, I clicked on it. The book doesn't specify the year, so I don't know the exact year either.
[Comment] I personally think the dye factory has problems.
Everyone says they want to go for the high-end market, with hand-grinding technology, so why develop a regular version? Trying to be both high-end and low-end is a dead end. Wealthy people crave vanity; they want something you don't. Even a beginner using a show-off watch certainly wouldn't know how to use one. Patek Philippe watches start at 100,000 RMB mainly because of the brand.
Don't bring political stances into your writing. I could tolerate it at first, but the ending made me want to vomit.
Zhang Xu's character disgusts me, and I also hate Lu Xiaomin and everyone in her dorm. And the female lead is actually Lu Xiaomin's roommate? I can accept changing the female lead, but I can't accept Zheng Wan. The protagonist's close friendships with Lu Xiaomin's dorm members are really irritating, and Zhang Xu is so clueless.
When I saw that comment about how octogenarian scientists can marry women in their twenties, I laughed. Does this guy, with his background, even deserve to be compared to Mr. Yang? Use your brain!
This is really well-written; I've read it three times. Are there any other books similar about drawing?
I reread The Great Painter, and I must admit it's one of my favorite urban novels. The whole story is very enjoyable, and Fang Yi is one of my favorite characters. He may not be perfect, and he might even be a bit arrogant and aloof. But he feels very real. Most importantly, painting will always be his hobby and interest. He loves this art and has not lost himself because of any so-called "golden touch," which is really good.
[Comment] It feels like I've gone back to my student days in the art studio.
First of all, this is my absolute favorite book I've read recently. It resonated deeply with me, especially since I left my ten-year career in an art studio to pursue CG art. It even gave me the urge to start sketching and drawing on paper again, something I'm usually quite lazy about.
I shouldn't have read the chapter reviews. While I was already disgusted by the bizarre thought processes of Lu Xiaomin's dormmates, I saw a comment saying the female lead later on is Zheng Wan… and suddenly I didn't want to read anymore.
