A Reading List for the Twenty-Four Solar Terms

Books: 80

Updated: 2y ago

Works I've read and really enjoyed. I hope we can share these unusual stories and discuss the questions they raise. I won't give specific ratings, since different readers will reach different conclusions. It's better to see for yourself than to rely on what others say. I'll add recommended books if I've read them and think they're good. If a book isn't on the list, it just doesn't suit my current tastes. For now, the list is mostly historical and xianxia web novels, with a few science fiction, wuxia, light novel, and fantasy titles. They're arranged from most to least numerous by genre. The list is limited to 80 books, so titles will be added and removed. The comments include a list of books that have been removed.

You step on the snow and follow the sound, and suddenly you see a faint light in the distance. After walking for a quarter of an hour, we entered the bamboo forest, and our eyes suddenly opened up and we felt warm.
