Urban Fiction, Entertainment, and Transmigration: The Best Picks
1. My main focus is urban and entertainment-industry fiction, with some historical, sci-fi, and spacefaring stories, as well as the occasional indescribable masterpiece. Xuanhuan, cultivation, and immortal-demon fiction rarely make this list. That’s just my personal taste. 2. I often browse other people’s lists too.

Old Bai’s Favorites
Books loved by a reader who's been at it for decades. At least 500,000 characters, and they have to be satisfying. I generally leave out chuuni stories, anime-inspired novels, infinite-flow stories, and reborn-as-a-child stories because they're not my thing. Feel free to leave recommendations, but ideally they should be around 500,000 characters. I usually don't recommend books that are only tens of thousands or a hundred thousand characters long.
