Gu Dao's Immortal Life 顾道长生
I thought this was going to be a realistic urban-life story, but then the setting changed without warning! Spiritual qi revival, the return of Taoist arts: this is probably a story about modern civilization transforming into a cultivation civilization. This book still takes its time.

Fang Lin sprawled lazily on the living-room sofa, watching TV, with his dog’s head resting comfortably on Lin Yuqing’s fair thigh. “Mom, I heard neutering has lots of benefits for dogs and can prevent a lot of illnesses.

Books with distinctive new ideas, fresh settings •ᴗ• and original concepts; seasoned writing and good storytelling. I personally bought every chapter. This also includes pioneering works of certain genres. Although some aspects may seem clichéd by today's standards, they are still well worth collecting as nostalgic reads. Updated irregularly. If there are books I particularly dislike, I may list them as well, partly as a warning to fellow readers.
