I've recently turned to writing historical fiction, so I'm making a list to collect books I like. If you enjoy them too, feel free to follow and save it. This list mainly features and promotes new historical fiction, along with a few books I like. I deleted last year's list and really regret it. This year, I'll take better care of this one. Let's read history and talk about it together.

The storyline was quite good, even without the female lead. Having watched too many romance novels, I'm no longer interested in love stories.
Don't you think it's awkward for you if I strangle a bunch of them, or do you think this kind of oral habit can shape your character very well?
The football aspect is largely flawless, but the descriptions of technology when the protagonist starts a tech company are slightly inaccurate, with some minor errors in concepts, suggesting the author might not be very familiar with the subject. However, considering it's an earlier book, these flaws don't detract from the overall quality. Overall, it's still a good football novel.
Note the date this book was written; the author must be a true, seasoned football fan, especially in his comments on Löw and Ronaldo. A normal, average fan probably wouldn't have guessed that Real Madrid's desire to sell Ronaldo was a long-standing idea.
... Female characters are off-putting...
Transfers should be in Euros, right? What's with the US dollar?
I've finished reading it; it's the first football novel I've ever read. I'm not a football fan at all; I only know the names of some European teams. But I thought this novel was excellent. It broadened my knowledge and gave me a much better understanding of football. Another thing I really liked was that it didn't touch on Chinese football at all—excellent, fantastic! I highly recommend this novel; keep up the good work, author! 😁
Chen Aiting's football articles are simply brilliant.
The author's writing on football is decent. However, the romantic subplot involving the female lead is incredibly poorly written, down to the point of being awful. 🥵
Discovering this book during its limited-time free offer was my good fortune.
