A Dust-Covered Heart
👍 means the star rating, with five stars as the maximum. I rate books based on my own impressions. Anything that gets three and a half stars or more, 👍👍👍➕, has something special and is worth a read. Also, feel-good wish-fulfillment novels get at most four stars. That's just a rule of mine. Most are classic web novels and feel-good wish-fulfillment stories. My reviews aren't really reading guides, but more like thoughts and summaries after finishing a book. I suppose only people who've read them

After More Than Ten Years of Reading, Here Are My Recommendations for Truly Great, Overlooked Books
I've been reading for over ten years and have carefully read thousands of novels. I only recommend high-quality books that have been overlooked. I've read every book I recommend carefully and genuinely think it's good. I can't stand formulaic, amateurish writing, clumsy prose, pretentious literary styles, or stories that torture the protagonist. None of that for me. Every book on this list is a clean read that suits my taste. Hope you enjoy them~ Maybe you'll find like-minded readers too~ Haha.
