See allGreat Reads, No Mindless Novels for Beginners
I’ve read countless books on Qidian and hit more land mines than I can count. Every time I get blown up, I wish someone had warned me ahead of time. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a book-list feature back then, so I had to test each book myself, one painful read at a time... I’ve read every book on this list, and there’s absolutely no brainless amateur fluff. I hope you enjoy them. Here’s my rule for recommendations: I generally don’t recommend ongoing books with fewer than 500,000 words. Getting

These are all books I've read and thought were pretty good. I don't like following ongoing stories, so most of them were already complete by the time I read them. But building up a backlog is so hard.

I've read every book here and thought they were good. Quite a few are finished, and many were recommended by fellow readers. If you accidentally fall into one of the skinny books' pits, please don't hit me, because... I'm down here in the pit too. One more thing: I'm very particular about what I read, but feel free to advertise. Just give me a title. If I can get into it and finish it, I'll add it to the list. Please spare me the long-winded, pointless recommendations. If I don't read it, I'll

My Reading List
In her previous life, Situ Yingxiu was gentle, kind, virtuous, and well-mannered. She waited ten years for her fiancé, only to be framed at the last moment and thrown into prison. To preserve her innocence, she leapt from the hundred-zhang-high White Pagoda of Dongyuan and died horribly before a crowd of onlookers. Reborn by an accident, Situ Yingxiu faces one mystery after another. Determined to escape the tragic fate of her previous life, she vows to take a different path: This time around, sh

Books I'd Read Again
I've been following online novels since 1999. I read all kinds of books for both male and female audiences, and there are too many great ones to list all at once. I'm lazy, so when I like an author, I keep following their work. I've followed many authors for years, so rather than list everything they've written, I'll pick one or two favorites to represent each. I only include books worth rereading; no fleeting action-packed reads that don't hold up over time. I'm no good at writing reviews, so I

... I have to say, regardless of the writing style, the description of this psychological counseling is just too jarring. I desperately want to convince myself it's fictional and not to take it seriously, but as a psychological counselor, reading this is just...
A sofa? I never get tired of it, I've watched it at least five times! ✌️
I really wish Yun Da could write another book on psychological counseling. I've looked at so many in this genre, and only "The Housekeeper's Wife" gave me a slight sense of healing. However, I also understand that psychological counseling is difficult to write about; to be convincing, one probably needs extensive clinical experience. Moreover, there's a severe shortage of truly qualified psychologists in China right now. I wish China could have a master like Hellinger someday.
So it's a book from 2015. What about the extra chapters...?
Pei Mingzhao is a good person, but unfortunately he has a fickle mother...
Of all the books by Yun Da, this is my favorite. Unlike the one below, from my perspective as a patient, I actually think the author handles psychological counseling very well. There's no magic formula, nor is it a direct copy of reality; the balance is just right.
Relationships require effort and maintenance from both sides. The male and female protagonists' love wasn't earth-shattering at the beginning, but rather a steady, enduring bond that ultimately became stronger than ever. I admire the female protagonist's high emotional and intellectual intelligence, and the male protagonist's courage to change history despite being reborn; both are incredibly capable.
I'll do everything in my power to tell Master Cui, I've finally waited for you!
Does this book have no side stories?
The Pei family's young lady's name was simply replaced with ***. Every time I see this name, I feel like the author is insulting her, and it makes me uncomfortable.
