I've given the list a major cleanup. Some of the books I added before have stopped updating, and others didn't really fit my taste, so I reluctantly removed them and started over. I can promise that I'll read every book I add, and write a thoughtful recommendation for it. Anything on the list is sure to be good, at least in terms of plot and prose, and better than many other books. I prefer polished, substantial writing: traditional stories that aren't amateurish or padded. I may lean toward print-style fiction, with an appreciation for the weight of the prose rather than how exciting it is. I won't recommend books by famous authors. Everyone already knows them. I'm looking for lesser-known books and giving them a read. I'll add the good ones, and I'm open to recommendations too. When suggesting a book, give me the title and a passage you think is especially well written. I'll try to add a new book every week. Since the list is capped at fifty, every slot matters. I'll gradually narrow it down to thirty books that stay put. There's a huge amount of online fiction, but honestly, very little of it is worth reading. I'm especially not recommending old books. Finding good ones among new releases is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I'll review each book based on its subject, prose, plot, style, and originality. I'll add the book first, then write the recommendation. Some people read for entertainment, some want to learn something, and others hope to find beautiful sentences and moving stories. I'm the latter. I'm really busy most of the time, so it takes a while to organize everything. Thanks for understanding. Also, if you're out of things to read, you can browse the books on this list. I haven't written recommendations for all of them, but they're all good. There are no anime-themed, science fiction, fantasy, military, or sports novels here, because I don't know those categories at all.

This is a story with a supporting cast of extraordinary talents. Each one has his own secret, and in the end all the secrets become one. The danger that can be seen is not danger. It is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, and the way of heaven is unclear. Perhaps the Buddha is the incarnation of the devil, and the devil is the god who saves the world. The Buddha said that the Tathagata knows all the different kinds of minds of all sentient beings. The Buddha said that all dharmas in the world are Buddhist dharmas; The Buddha said that the three thousand worlds are broken into tiny dust; But he asked: Does the world exist in your eyes?
