Facts and Fantasy

History, the present, and the future

Years Etched in Stone

The Great River Flows East

To establish the heart for Heaven and Earth, to secure a future for the people, to carry on the lost teachings of the sages of the past, and to bring peace to all generations. Zhang Zai. Display the heads at the post station on Gaojie Street, among the foreign envoys’ residences, so they may be seen for thousands of miles: those who dare offend the mighty Han will be executed, no matter how far away they are.

Books I've Collected and Finished, and That Left an Impression (Mostly Complete)

From childhood to adulthood, all kinds of things have moved me, and all kinds of books have touched my heart. Was it the books that moved me, or did I happen upon them at just the right time? Since starting work, I haven't had much time to read. I pick up books here and there, in little fragments, so the emotions never really build or linger. I've still finished a few, though. I'll make time to catch up on the good ones.

Learning from History

Ever since I was little, I’ve dreamed of becoming a great hero, returning to the past to change the world and make my name immortal. I’m sure lots of people have felt the same way. Alternate-history novels satisfy this desire, which is why transmigration stories have become so popular. If history could happen again, what would you choose?

㊙ So many great books (I’m too lazy to count). Come take a look! ٩(❛ั︶❛ั*) I’ve been reading web novels for more than ten years, ever since I first discovered them.

Being a Literary Romantic Is a Disease

If you like them, you'll like them. P.S. I removed Mao Ni's books. It's not like they'd care about one little reader like me anyway.

A Record of the Great Books I've Loved: Odette 🌸

Sharing some great books I've read and really enjoyed. A few are older romance novels aimed at women, but most are aimed at men. I've been reading web fiction for years, and these days I prefer well-written stories. I've stopped wasting time on garbage.

✨ "Multiple Heroines" Shoulders Like Carved Jade ✨ ✨ "Epang Palace" Waist Slender and Graceful ✨

🔥 Having read all the world's countless springs, this list holds the loveliest springtime. Light as a startled swan, graceful as a swimming dragon, Brighter than autumn chrysanthemums, more lush than spring pines.

Seen up close, she glows like a lotus emerging from clear waters. Her fullness and slenderness are perfectly balanced, her height a

[Jun's Bookshop]

Wouldn’t it be grand to be a steed galloping a thousand miles! The novels on this list are ones I read back when I was completely obsessed with fiction. Some are now considered excellent works or even groundbreaking classics, and many were thrilling historical or fantasy stories at the time. There are a few I started reading and couldn’t bear to delete, so I’ve kept them as mementos... This list is simply a way for me to remember what I’ve read and revisit the complicated feelings I had at the t

A List Curator Who Can’t Write Reviews

(To the person who went out of your way to downvote this list: thanks for the effort! I didn't realize you had so little to do!) Everything here is something I've read and personally think is worth reading. I'm too lazy to write reviews. Whether a book is good is up to each reader, not something the list owner gets to decide. (Book recommendations welcome, any genre.) No genre restrictions.
