I Want Flowers, Flowers, Flowers (Updated Once a Year; Good Books Get Buried, So Scroll Down)
◎ This list values quality over quantity. There aren't many books, but if you scroll to the bottom, you'll find a treasure. ◎ I. Mostly rational stories. Some lean dark, but the characters are intelligent and don't get an unreasonable protagonist's halo. The plots are logical, rely on few cliches, and the protagonists have minds of their own rather than acting solely to serve the plot. The authors are skilled writers. II. Most recommendations are undiscovered works with potential. I don't recomm
If a Book Can't Hook You in the First Three Chapters, It's Not for You and It's Not a Good Book
There's the first book that got me hooked, the book that pulled me back in after I'd read so much I was bored and didn't want to read anymore, and the book that left me awestruck. Scenes and moments, one after another. Apart from those three, these are all novels I enjoy. Usually, the first three chapters tell you whether a novel is for you, so recommendations are welcome.
Great Books, No More Brain-Dead Amateur Fiction
These are the novels I like, both male-oriented and female-oriented, some ongoing and some finished. No dumb, brainless stories, please. I'll add or remove books from time to time.

I don't care whether a book is hailed as a masterpiece or has won any awards. All I care about is whether I enjoy reading it. Every river reflects the moon, and every cloudless sky stretches far and wide. Everyone has their own tastes, so here's a brief list of mine.

I couldn't continue reading this book after reading about the beautiful, stunning, and willful child bride!
Three thousand men were able to slaughter 180,000 Jiang people—that's incredibly vicious! I really can't bear to watch anymore.
What kind of ridiculous setting is this?! The summoned characters, even if they're not infused with the memories of that world, should at least be fiercely loyal to the host. Otherwise, why would a summoned character follow a nobody? (The summoned characters are all top figures of their era; without this loyalty requirement, who would follow an unknown nobody?
[Comment] The villainous hero system is unsuitable, but the treacherous scoundrel system is somewhat appropriate.
The villain system is not suitable, but the treacherous villain system is somewhat appropriate. Novel readers love to immerse themselves in their characters, and the protagonist's actions are unlikely to appeal to most. Even a villainous figure like Cao Cao, while possessing both cunning and flaws, had charisma; at most, some might dislike him, but few would find him repulsive or hateful.
The summoned character wasn't bound to loyalty and just ran away. Although they'll definitely come back later, it's still annoying to watch.
Has the author stopped publishing new books? Or has he changed his pseudonym? I especially love this author's books.
[Comment] I really like this book.
The writing is mature and fluent, showcasing the author's solid writing skills—a slight drawback in terms of technical skill. What's remarkable is the well-developed plot, without any noticeable flaws. I especially love the adorably silly system that the protagonist constantly exploits; its constant updates are very human-like, yet never feel contrived. In short, I really enjoyed it.
Why does it feel like the protagonist isn't very smart?
[Comment] This is a good book, why didn't I buy it?
This book is really well-written, so why isn't it selling well? I really can't understand it, sigh.
[Comment] I'm back!
I felt uncomfortable when I saw the part where someone was being coerced into becoming a follower, so I went to watch pirated versions of the video. I've been really enjoying watching this lately, so I came back specifically to catch up on my subscription. A cunning and ruthless man should act like a powerful ruler. I really like this attitude of daring to defy imperial authority.
