A jumble of recommendations and complaints.
Personal Reading List | A Storehouse of Plot-Driven Reads
I prefer stories focused on careers. The most important thing is an interesting plot, followed by a well-rounded one. Good writing means telling a good story, not piling on fancy words. Multiple heroines or romantic ambiguity are major drawbacks for me, though that doesn't mean the list has none.

Some Great Books I've Read
What I think is good might not be, but if everyone likes it, that’s what matters.
A Taste of Delight
Keeping track of novels that have stayed with me.
Lighthearted Reads
I read novels to unwind, so here are a few great ones. They’re lighthearted and have good plots.
Novels with Great Supporting Characters [Mainly No Romance or One Female Lead]
Books worth rereading at least once! I'm a peculiar reader: most people focus on the protagonist, but I like the supporting cast. A good novel creates an entire world. In that world, the protagonist isn't the only one who's brilliant, dashing, or surrounded by admirers. Everyone has their own personality, their own joys and sorrows, and their own constraints. A novel where only the protagonist shines is just the author's wish fulfillment. When the supporting cast shines too, that's a real world!

Reading Diary
Books I've loved over the years
Anti-Qidian
I'm a longtime bookworm, currently in the late stages of sophomore syndrome. Every book I recommend is one I've read. The protagonists all stand out from the usual Qidian crowd: they're decent people, not pathetic losers, and neither naive nor self-indulgent. They're nonconformists on Qidian.

The beginning of Butterfly's book is really unappealing. Melee Full-time and Solo are both books that I have read countless times at the beginning and ended up getting out of hand, and I have thought about them countless times. Now I've read three books and I'm exhausted again. I've read the beginning of this one countless times but can't stand it. What kind of curse is this... I obviously like Butterfly's books and I just want to read his books, but... Hey, can anyone tell me that the wonderful parts of this book at both ends keep me motivated? This state is so painful 😅
In fact, this one is my favorite!
Although it is very vulgar, I still yearn for the tacit understanding and trust between Ye Fan and Ye Ping. As a reader, that kind of relationship seems really sweet and enviable. So only works with a single heroine can better reflect the character of the heroine. Unfortunately, it seems that Butterfly Lan is not good at writing emotional lines? Obviously you can feel the tacit understanding and attention from their daily singing. Ye Fan unconditionally disclosed all his secrets to Ye Ping, and Ye Ping also betrayed Yejia Village for Ye Fan. Although the funny daily routine and dialogue are very attractive to me, I still want to see the smooth emotional line between these two people. What's sad is that until the end, they seemed to be written as brothers. I was fully expecting that there would be some hints at the end, but I didn't expect that I would say "Fuck with me". It's obviously the finale, so let's follow Ye Ping's advice and come with me, but this mess is really a sad thing that I can't forget.
This book is the beginning of my exposure to Wanwen novels. I think it is better than The Master. I like its plot very much, but it is too short.
How come there are more than 40 comments?
There are many very funny scenes in the book.
Masterpiece
So beautiful! 😭😭😭😭
In my opinion, Ye Fan and Ye Ping are the couple with the clearest emotional lines in all the Butterfly books.
From the two people getting to know each other, to their separation, to saving each other's lives after meeting again, the various small details of getting along, as well as the attitude of the protagonist group, and most importantly, the tacit attitude and acquiescence of the two protagonists, can all see the relationship between them. It's just that Butterfly always likes to use gags and ambiguous descriptions, which makes the audience feel regretful. In the end, if there can be an extra episode about the two of them getting along with each other privately in their daily lives, it will be complete (dreaming)
Halfway through the second brush, I couldn't help but complain.
Five or six years ago, I read it in the order of Full Time → Solo → Star Photo → Online. I read the other three books repeatedly, but this one was the only one I didn't read. I actually forgot all about the plot. Rereading it recently, I realized why I had forgotten all about it. The character of the protagonist is too confusing. Halfway through the book, I was confused by his extraordinary IQ and inexplicable temper. I couldn't help but complain over and over again. I felt that it was annoying to complain about the same point over and over again, but every time I saw it, I still couldn't help but think: Huh? What is this for? The key point is that Ye Fan was also a very stable and humorous character in the early stage. The advantages brought by the experience of growing up alone were all gone. It was as if he was Ye Xiu when he appeared on the stage and became Feng Xiaoxiao halfway through. However, Ye Xiu and Feng Xiaoxiao are both very complete characters. Their personalities are consistent and consistent with their life experiences. They are reasonable and appropriate in their respective stories. Ye Fan is very erratic. In the initial campus chapter and the first mission, we can see his physical and psychological growth as he gradually enters the world of killing. He is becoming more and more fond of him. However, after the mission failed, he suddenly turned into a symbolic male protagonist who relied on chance. He also went from a top student to a horribly low IQ. Although it is "funny", it is also funny. . . I don't know if it's because this kind of plot was popular in Qidian back then, or because Butterfly couldn't grasp this kind of character back then, or because the character was sacrificed for word count and "funnyness". . . I really hesitate to read the second half of the book. . . Was it possible to order the full version back then to show support? I really don't remember anything at all. ,.
It's a pity that when Ye Ping came back, she always felt like there was something missing compared to her before.
