Those Sleepless Nights, One After Another
A world where the curtain slowly rises, where you can face what's ahead with composure, calm, and courage
Saved for the Memories
You miss someone when you haven't seen them for a long time
Never Get Tired of Rereading Them, Always Nostalgic
This is a collection of novels by a middle-aged homebody who has been reading for 15 years. I've spent 15 years reading on Qidian, switching accounts four times along the way. Many old memories are tied to these books. Although many can no longer be found, plenty of classics remain. I update this list irregularly with books I'm currently reading. Anything I recommend is something I was genuinely able to get into. My personal preferences lean mainly toward history, competitive sports, and games.
Leisure Reading
A little bit of everything
Ge's Little Book List
If you like niche works, fresh ideas, and especially great prose and clever thinking, give these a look.
The Wacky World
Xia Xie's works have smooth plots, no filler, smart characters, and are guaranteed to be complete.
Meow's Book Nook
No silly, naive protagonists. The main characters have their wits about them
Personal Favorites, No Playing Favorites Between Big Names and Rising Stars
Purely a matter of personal taste, so please don't flame me if you disagree. Some books are old, some are new, but I only include the best. These are all books I've read and really enjoyed. I'm not hyping them up: they genuinely have something to offer.
A High-Quality List of Hidden Gems
I've been reading for many years, and my tastes are pretty broad, so this list has all kinds of genres! I especially like online-game novels, but I really hate reborn online-game stories! I also like historical fiction, but transmigration stories have been done to death. It's hard to find a good one. I especially hate unserious transmigration openings, like going on and on about eating, drinking, or what to wear. If you don't know how to start, don't write an opening at all. Just begin the story
Mind-Blowing Novels
We're not reading books, we're exploring the authors' wild imaginations. Books may come to an end, but ideas are contagious. Once your imagination takes off, there's no putting it back! This list is all about books with wild ideas. Some may be a little silly, but their stories are always told with complete sincerity!
Xia Xie: Looking at Me Like That Is Very Dangerous. Because...
The Mercenary War. Records of Abnormal Creatures. Guys, would you mind following me?
Brain-Twisting, No-Filler Shrimp
Xia Xie is an obscure Qidian author with 16 completed VIP novels. He reliably posts two chapters a day, and his stories are packed with substance, never padded. Even hidden bosses can be killed off by the male lead in just a few dozen words.
Hidden Gems
Novels I've read and enjoyed. Maybe someone else has the same taste as me.
My Personal Cloud Bookshelf
I've been reading for a long time. To keep my bookshelf tidy, I'm moving books I've finished or no longer want to keep there to this list. It also makes it easy for me to revisit them whenever I like.

Reading Notes
I've read so many books, so I made a list to keep track of them.
A Veteran Reader's Favorites
Books I've read or am currently following over the past decade or more. 1. Fans of big-name authors may be disappointed. 2. Sanjiang Picks can no longer satisfy people like us. 3. Crude protagonists and poor writing are deal-breakers, except for wish-fulfillment stories and unusual premises. 4. Dedicated to finding all kinds of quirky, unconventional good stories that differ from the mainstream.
Mage or Warrior?
I want to be a mage, no explanations needed. The Gate of Truth awaits its opening. Only warriors are the truth; I hope to shatter the shackles of flesh and blood. I'm not good at describing things, so that'll have to do. Updated from time to time. I might not finish reading these, though! Don't recommend books to me, let me find my own! I finally got my account back! I read some books on another account, so this one doesn't have any fan points. (́An◞౪◟Pai‵) The Knight's Horn disappeared at chapt
Why Not Have Some Tea?

Books You Can’t Find on Qidian
Give them a try! So many good books have been taken down in the recent cleanup campaigns
Urban Fiction
A reading list is for storing books.
Fellow Daoist, Please Stay a Moment
No idiotic protagonists, no promiscuous male leads

[Comment] Can you write it?
I've written about urban life, fantasy, supernatural abilities (or games), how about writing about a post-apocalyptic world? See if it's still as lighthearted as ever.
[Comment] I just finished finishing "Business Shadow" and this one is also finished. What themes are you planning to write in your new book? Is it a multiple-choice question?
As the title suggests. I hope the new book comes out soon; I'm out of books to read.
[Comment] Heroes that have appeared so far
Card (protagonist) Big Mouth (a giant insect monster in the desert), Blade Girl (North Moon). EZ (Ding Ze), Raven Strategist (Raven), Female Police Officer (Evelyn), Little Mage Vega (Will) Widowmaker (Eva), Graves (Reguss), Lee Sin (Lee Sin), Malphite (Morte). Wei (Zhao Wei), Jin Jin (Jinx), Kennen (Mi Xiaonan), Timo (Mi Xiaomo).
The world of this book is a futuristic urban world with some cultivation elements. The novel uses the settings, characters, plots and other designs of the two major games, League of Legends and Hunter x Hunter, and creates a new story based on them. So, readers who have not played these two games don't need to worry too much.
Ding Ze's mother was forced to her death by the Ding family. Ding Ze wasn't even a blood relative of the Ding family, which led to his expulsion. But Xia insisted on giving him the surname Ding! If Ding Ze were alive, he'd probably have fought Xia three hundred rounds in a fit of rage.
Holy crap, three people are carrying the entire comment section?!
Many works have good content but don't break out of their niche.
Writing style determines the lower limit of the audience; the personal message conveyed determines the upper limit of the audience.
I just want to ask, the necklace that Beiyue had at the beginning was never explained in the end.
[Comment] I'm a little worried about Xia Mi's math calculations.
It took Cui Ming three months to go from 0.1 To 0.2 Force, and then the increase was steady. Therefore, it would take 30 months to increase his Force to 1. The text states that Force 3 is sufficient for a cultivator. However, True Force is more powerful than Force, so after 90 months, or 7.5 Years, Cui Ming would roughly reach True Force 3 (at which point he should be roughly equivalent to a…
I visited to express my gratitude and thanks, bringing with me my book, "Wizards Begin in America"! I've added it to my favorites. It has a very imaginative concept, and the author's writing is excellent.
