I've been reading for twelve years and have tried all kinds of books. What gets me down the most is finishing a book I absolutely love, only to find there aren't any other well-written books like it. So I'm sharing the books I'm currently following, in the hope that one of them will help you get through a reading slump. Reading so many novels has taught me one thing: authors aren't gods. Even in a world they've created themselves, things can go wrong. The books I recommend may have a few flaws, or might not appeal to everyone because of personal taste. But if an author is sincere and takes their work seriously, they deserve some understanding.

《Treasure Trove Bookshop》: Anime and Light Novels, No AI-Generated Stories

Whether it's a morning glory tucked away in a corner where nobody sees it or a rose beloved by everyone, each has its own brilliance. These books all have some degree of originality. I won't use AI to bring in older books, and I've also filtered out some ongoing works, so I rarely use AI or quote it at all. Parti
