If Qidian had a filter for target age groups, finding books would be a lot easier.

Books You Can't Stop Reading

All kinds of subjects and styles, with pretty eclectic tastes. I ask for just one thing: make it a good read.

Quality Books That Feel Real and Are Worth Reading

I don’t recommend amateurish wish-fulfillment stories, cheat-code novels, formulaic plots, officialdom fiction, or System novels... I only recommend stories that feel real. A few notes: Amateurish wish-fulfillment: The protagonist or antagonist is incompetent, and the story relies on stale face-slapping and showing off.

Some Really Great Books

Books I find especially delightful, whether they're like sipping fine wine or tasting fresh tea. They leave me feeling blissfully content.

Books I’ve Bought or Am Reading

This book list is great. I can put everything I buy here and find it whenever I need it. I never used this feature before and lost track of several books that weren’t very important. That won’t happen again. I also want to slowly buy all of Chang Shuxin’s works, and some by Xu Gongzi Shengzhi. I bought Ren Yu, but for some reason I can’t add it here.

Where Did the Heaven, Earth, and Human Rankings Go?

Personal taste.
