A Celebration of Outstanding Works!
Everyone loves a great story, but we all have different tastes and different ideas of what makes a book good. Today, let's look for the books we each enjoy. You can help me judge whether my recommendations are any good. This list has its own comment section, so feel free to leave a message there. I've been reading since the 2000s and have explored a wide range of genres. If you find something you like, add it to your bookshelf. Whatever you think of the books, I hope you'll join the discussion.
Drifting Duckweed in Troubled Times · 2026
Sometimes the protagonist's world isn't a happy place. There are no beautiful scenes, no fairytale stories or endings. Sometimes I want to give the author a huge tip just to change the plot. But the story always goes in the direction I dread. I value realism, so this list includes stories that aren't perfect. Stories about real worlds and things that could really happen.

Completed Novels I’ve Read
I've been reading web novels for about 15 years. I used to read everything, but now I'm always in a reading slump. These days, I mostly read historical, sports, infinite-loop, entertainment, and fanfiction stories, along with books by a few authors whose styles suit me. At first, what matters most to me is the protagonist's characterization. After that, I care whether the plot fits who the protagonist is.
