I Am a Monster 我就是妖怪
I’m a monster, one who can stop time. I’m a monster who can stop time and even turn it back. That’s nothing. My true identity is far more mysterious. Sometimes I think that’s the most fascinating and poignant thing about my life: I’m the head of a neighborhood committee in human society... Sigh. That’s why my kind call me He Anyi, the One Whose Past Is Too Painful to Recall.

The Biggest Mess in History 史上第一混乱
I'm truly unlucky, really. Other people transmigrate, while I can only be transmigrated into. Other people pick up girls, while I can only be picked up by girls... At my umpteenth pawnshop, I received a series of clients named Jing Ke, Li Bai, Guan Yu, Qin Hui, and so on, leading to one hilarious story after another. This book is packed with comedy, and cultivation, transmigration, urban life, and romance are all indispensable. That is why it is titled The First Great Chaos in History.

Tales of the Strange 异闻录
I have no superpowers. I didn't transmigrate, and I don't have a kingly aura that makes countless beauties bow at my feet. But why do I keep encountering paranormal events straight out of video games?! There's the vengeful spirit who entered a Legend server and made himself the lord of Shabak City, the hacker with a bug that lets him drop top-tier gear at will, and the player who came back from the dead to find their in-game lover... I'm just a lowly customer service rep for a game! Then one day

- 5 The Demon Inn 有妖气客栈 A System with a supernatural air, a shopkeeper with a supernatural air, and an inn with a supernatural air. Raise the seven-star stove, boil the waters of three rivers in a copper pot. Set out the Eight Immortals’ table and welcome guests from every direction. Gladly welcome visitors from the four seas, with two supernatural mouths ready to serve. Share a smile upon meeting, and trade white robes for red. When the guest leaves, the cup is still warm, and a donkey lies drunk beside the table. 0Votes375.3kRecs330.6kFans

- 7 Back to the Past as a Cat 回到过去变成猫 At the gate of the East Family Housing Compound at Chu Hua University, the gatekeeper uncle answered a phone call, then threw open the window and roared toward the nearby grove in a booming voice: “Black Charcoal, your mom’s calling you home for dinner!” Whoosh! A black cat shot out of the dense grass at the edge of the grove and raced toward one of the buildings, disappearing into the entrance in the blink of an eye. After it, one cat head after another poked up from the grass. It was mealtime: 60Votes1.2MRecs1.1MFans

Tales of the Strange
Mostly supernatural fiction, like fantasy and dark fairy tales. There are quite a few obscure novels here. I have pretty particular tastes, but I'll recommend books I think are well-written and better than average. I can be picky, so don't be surprised if I drop a book. The list has limited space, so I'll add and remove books as needed.
Avoid Beginner-Level Stories, Treasure Your Time: A Collection of Wild Ideas
Hey, are you tired of overpowered chosen-one heroes? They're born invincible, every woman who sees them falls for them for no reason, every man wants to become their sworn brother, and every villain is brainless and practically begs the hero to trample them. Every technique and opportunity is conveniently laid out for the protagonist. If they don't become ruler of the world and shatter the void, they can barely show their face in public. Who are these brainless wish-fulfillment stories insulting
Old and New Books, for Readers from Beginners to Veterans
I casually counted how many years I've been reading web novels and realized it's been well over a decade. I've read all kinds of books in that time. Some are still unforgettable, while others have faded from memory. So I decided to make a list of the best ones I've read, as a look back on my reading journey. This is a personal list for my own use, made up of books I've picked out but haven't sorted into categories.
