A Record of Classic, Enjoyable Stories (Just My Personal Opinion)
If a book made it onto this list, the curator must really like it! There are all kinds of genres, for both male- and female-oriented readers~~ Feel free to bookmark it!! Some are complete, some are promising new novels, and some abandoned books are here on display for all to see.
Books on My Shelf with Rough Writing but Irresistible Stories
These books all have compelling plots and fully realized characters, and they make you think. If you enjoy the list, please give it a like. That makes recommending books more rewarding, hahaha! That's the original description. But I just opened Qidian Reading yet again and found that not a single book pinned to the top of my shelf had updated. All of those books are on this list too, so I'm sorry, everyone.

Created in May 2017. Although many authors have only one book recommended here, their other completed works are also excellent.

Novels I Followed Back in the Day
Keeping track of the books I've read.
A Breath of Fresh Air in Women's Fiction
Recommendations from a reader with over ten years of experience I've read so many female-lead novels that feel mass-produced. These days, I prefer stories with a different style. In this list, there are few vicious supporting female characters, and other side characters get their moments to shine. The heroines aren't Mary Sues, and the romance develops in unconventional ways. Some stories don't even have a male lead.
A Song Sent with a Letter, Asking Nothing of the Book's Ending or Whether We Meet Again
I dedicate a song to you, asking not whether we'll be together when it ends. Who scattered the incense smoke, scattering the tangled bonds between us? Hear the strings snap, severing three thousand threads of longing. Falling petals sink beneath the ripples of a morning breeze. If a flower could feel pity, whose fingertips would it fall upon? The mountain has trees, and the trees have branches. I love you, but you don't know.
Books I've Read and Enjoyed, Across All Genres
All kinds of genres. I'll slowly add good books I've read in the past. Some were so long ago that I don't remember their titles or even what they were about, only that I read them. They were an indispensable part of my life. These are all books I've read myself. Not everyone will like them, but I do, and I think some of them will stay with me for a long, long time.
Good Recommendations for When You're Out of Reads (Female-Oriented)
Everyone has different tastes. These are the ones I like, and I'm recommending them in earnest.
Ancient Romance Novels I Stayed Up All Night Reading

Books I've Loved!
Mostly excellent novels aimed at female readers, but I'm open to male-oriented ones too

I'm telling you, be prepared to read her books for several years. I've read her first two works, from her teenage years to her marriage and now her child is five years old—I can't even remember how much time has passed. I've almost forgotten the beginning of "Red Pearl's Diary" 😂
I can't handle this alone. Come back soon. Life is wonderful because of you Come back soon. Bring back my longing Don't let my heart be as empty as the sea. Music without you The world is making it difficult to move an inch I was stuck in place. Let memories condense In the dark night Praying for dawn to come quickly. Only you Give me warm morning light
I'm a guy, and I'm surprised I enjoy reading your books. The first two are very well-written. Most importantly, they don't have the saccharine, overly sweet romance of some other male and female authors. Keep it up!
Finally, I've been waiting for you. It was worth keeping it on the bookshelf and frequently coming back to browse through it. 😭 Even now, when I close my eyes, Brother Xue and Jing Chen are still there in front of me. They are one of the few characters in the book that I can still remember after so many years since the book ended! It was really disappointing when Hongzhuji suddenly disappeared.
Has anyone else been startled by a system update notification, just like me? It really has been 500 years!
It's been 7 years, and everything I saw before has been locked up again. From "New Tang Dynasty Jade" to "Everything is Easy," although the story of "Everything is Easy" is quite controversial, I generally admire Guo Da's writing style. In my mind, she is on par with Zhizhi and Xixing as an author. Unfortunately, Guo Da's update quality is really too poor.
What else can I say? Let's wait and see. Hopefully, my child will see the ending before going to university. 😭
Should we update again?
This author, whose habit of leaving plot holes unfinished is terrible 😓😓😓, started this book after everything went smoothly, and it's amazing that people have been following it for so many... Years! Unbearable! If the writing was bad, the plot would be one thing. But this one is perfect in every way except for the fact that they never finish the plot holes, which is unbearable!
I don't want to brag, but I feel like I'm rushing to finish this old story quickly. I really loved the opening descriptions of the Qinhuai River scenery and the history of the academy. Also, I truly admire the various foreshadowing and hints in the story. I feel that some parts of the plot lack any build-up. The parts that should have been touching or exciting didn't feel right.
Seven years! I can't believe I'm still so attached, still keeping it, I haven't given up. 😐
