Let's Read Good Books Together
Everyone has their own tastes, so the books on this list may not be for you, but they definitely aren't mindless. If you like one, give it a thumbs-up. If you don't, hit the thumbs-down. I'll remove the ones that aren't good first. The goal is to recommend great reads and help everyone find something new! The list mainly features, but isn't limited to, infinite-loop stories, wizards, xianxia, comedic commentary, science fiction, gender-bending, and historical fiction. I used to ignore recommenda

Still ongoing novels, chosen to suit my personal tastes. Also looking for blurbs for the books on this list. I'm in a reading slump, so please send recommendations.
A Veteran Bookworm's List: No Frustrating Reads, and No System Stories for Now
There's a bit of everything, but nothing boring. More anime-inspired stories, though not all of them are. There are plenty of quality books, and most are worth binge-reading. I'll point out any flaws in the descriptions. I'm currently avoiding System stories.
Reborn as a Demon in Journey to the West
Every protagonist is reborn in the world of Journey to the West as a monster, then strives to make a life there. Completed gems.
Mostly Fantasy, with a Little History and Sci-Fi. I Love Farming and Business Stories
I tend to enjoy fantasy and xuanhuan, but I'm also interested in historical fiction and sci-fi. I like lighthearted, traditional stories about farming and running a business.

I’m sure these will be good reads.

Lazy Curator's Private Bookshop
I love fantasy and xianxia novels. Surely everyone dreams of immortality and eternal youth. It's impossible in real life, but let me indulge in that fantasy through books. Lately, I'm especially fond of Primordial Chaos, Journey to the West, ancient myths, and primordial wilderness stories, so this list is mostly fantasy and xianxia. There are other genres too, since there's plenty of room. But these are pretty much the only books I've read, or else it's been so long that I've forgotten their ti

To Avoid Running Out of Books
As someone who is often left with nothing to read, I discovered something: turn off chapter comments before reading. That way, many books become readable. After reading one or two hundred chapters, or once the book goes premium, turn the comments back on. It makes things much better. Also, if you open the chapter comments and find people saying they dropped the book, you can open their profile to see whether they have a new or veteran account, whether they have privacy settings enabled, and whet
Smart Protagonists, No Overpowered Chosen Ones
No playing by the usual rules. No harems, no goody-two-shoes heroines, no overpowered main characters.
Classic Xianxia!
Recommended good books.

Recommended by a reader of ten years. I only recommend books worth reading: (1) entertaining, (2) a decent length. ψ(`∇´)ψ If you're out of books to read, come take a look.
Classics and Strong Recommendations!
These authors have been quietly working hard for a long time. Some haven't made it big yet, but their works deserve your support! Others are authors I follow obsessively, and their works are examples for me to learn from. And I've also included a few of my own little works. I hope you'll read them and share your feedback.
By the Time the Skies Clear, Summer Is Already Deep
Wuxia, historical fiction, eastern fantasy, anime-inspired fiction, fan fiction, and urban novels. I don't collect books by major authors.

Those Books from All Those Years
The list curator is working hard at their studies while still bringing you great books. Don’t you think that deserves some praise? How about a like, a follow, or even a comment to show your support? ^ω^ If you know a good book you’d like to share with other readers, leave a comment. I’ll add it to the list after I’ve read it... Please show some support during Qidian’s book-list event. (Three egg-smashing attempts cost 168 points, but you’ll get 188 points back.) Some books were read on another a
⊙﹏⊙ Constantly Adding Books: They're All Pretty Good, Hope You Enjoy Them
^O^→_→✔ Every novel on this list is exciting, and none has been abandoned. I mainly recommend books with highly intelligent protagonists. There are no harem novels, and most of these books have built up a good backlog. The supporting characters are smart, too. I’ve personally vetted every book on this list. They’re all currently ongoing. I’ve removed the completed novels I’ve finished, and the rest have at least a few hundred thousand words, so they’re worth a look. I think every book on this li

Why are there so few people reading such a good book?
Just because of that touch of red after my name, I think this thread could go up to 100 *▽*
This means another two-week hiatus from updates.
Looking at the book's grades is truly disheartening.
It's clearly a good book, but nobody's reading it—why are the results so dismal?!
Sun Wukong is actually trash.
In the original novel, Sun Wukong couldn't even get into the South Gate of Heaven before being beaten to a pulp by the gatekeepers. He had never even seen what the Jade Emperor looked like; the havoc in the Heavenly Palace was only a TV series adaptation.
The Eight Trigrams Furnace awakened its sentience. Instead of siding with Laozi, it foolishly tries to be clever by associating with a demon god, attempting to evade its powerful backer. So self-important! Utterly brainless. If you had taken human form in his Tushita Palace, you would have been a guest there, destined to be close to him.
Taking the long way around, going in the opposite direction. The author's words are clearly discouraging. Instead of being human, they choose to become demons. Doesn't the author know that all demons eventually transform into human form to become immortals, because humans are most in harmony with the Dao? The author wrote a time-travel story and then went to the trouble of becoming a demon instead of something close at hand? The author's words are clearly discouraging.
Damn it, it's one thing to define the Nine-Turn Golden Pill as a first-grade immortal pill, but some random name suddenly appears that dares to be two grades higher than the Nine-Turn Golden Pill. Besides, why not take the pill out after it's been refined and leave it in the furnace?
The protagonist will ultimately suffer a fate worse than death. His achievements are entirely due to the will of Heaven; someone of his stature could never have reached such a level. Even Sun Wukong and Yang Jian are only Great Luo Golden Immortals; the protagonist is the strongest. This is absolutely something Heaven has allowed him to achieve, and he will definitely pay the price in the end.
The main character's name is disgusting; it lacks any ethereal quality. Mythological protagonists should ideally not have surnames, and this demon's surname is Yang...
