  1. A Reading Journal for History and Urban Fiction 历史，都市书荒杂记 Reader list Male ChannelRebirth I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about urban and historical fiction. The books I recommend have qualities I think are worth recommending. I’m not afraid of flaws, but I do want a story to have something distinctive. Evaluating a book isn’t about nitpicking; it’s about weighing its strengths against its weaknesses. I recommend books whose strengths I personally feel outweigh their flaws. Of course, every reader has their own taste, and a book not being to your liking isn’t something you can 26Books49Follows2moUpdated
  2. Liu Yifei, Xixi, the Celestial Beauty, An Feng [Only One Heroine] 刘亦菲，茜茜，天仙，安风【只收单女主】 Reader list CelebrityLighthearted Only collecting stories with one female lead, where she's as beautiful as a celestial maiden. Some of these are old enough that I've forgotten the details, but they're all worth reading. These are all books I was able to keep following. This is just my personal taste, so please don't flame me. Rating system: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good, worth a read ⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading when you're out of books ⭐⭐ Fine if you don't think too hard, just read for fun ⭐ Gross, frustrating, or impossible 46Books602Follows2moUpdated

  4. A Vast Library Through the Ages: Great Reads of Every Kind, Plus Self-Recommendations and Promising Newcomers 卷帙浩繁—亘久 各类精品好书推荐+自荐新书幼苗 Editor's pick LightheartedMale Channel Some books are wonderfully written but hardly known, buried in the endless sea of novels. It's a real shame. This list is dedicated to finding excellent stories across all kinds of genres. I carefully select books I enjoy and share what I consider classics with more readers. Writing a book isn't easy. If there's room, I'll add new books that authors recommend themselves. Once the list is full, I'll remove books previously added from reader comments and make room for new self-recommendations. Us 89Books830Follows2moUpdated

  15. Reborn and Transmigrated Cultivation Gems! 重生穿越仙草！ Author list LightheartedMale Channel After the scandal in Chinese entertainment, my rose-colored glasses came off, and entertainment-industry novels are hanging by a thread. I like books by Qisu Mianbao, Jing Keshu, Chang Yu, Qizhe Wangba Kan Shayu (Naonao Bu Ai Nao), and Lushi Canjun. Their plots balance tension and breathing room, and the pacing feels just right. I keep some good books even when I can no longer find them. 43Books18Follows3moUpdated
  16. Platinum Classics Through the Years 🔥 One Book Each 历年白金🔥一人一书 Editor's pick Hot-bloodedPower Fantasy In July 2006, Qidian introduced its Platinum Writer program.

  18. The Reading Drought Relief Station! 书荒救济站！ Reader list HistoricalMale Channel Every book on this list has been carefully selected. Many include experiences drawn from the author's own life. I don't like simplistic stories. I read mainly to broaden my experience and discover different worlds. Urban and historical novels test an author's life experience; without enough of it, it's hard to write a story with real flavor! I've read hundreds of novels, and they've ruined my prospects. Now I want nothing at all! I've also developed some opinions of my own about fiction. Thanks 62Books269Follows3moUpdated
  19. Quality Reads of Every Kind, Old and New! 各类精品，不分老幼！ Author list CelebrityMale Channel I’ve been reading for twenty years, and after so many books, very few have stayed with me. This list collects distinctive, representative works from different genres, along with promising new books. I don’t have time to write detailed reviews, but I’ll add them gradually. I only include ongoing serials and new releases, not completed works. These are purely my personal opinions. I hope they’re useful, and thanks for reading. 93Books528Follows3moUpdated

  22. Chinese Entertainment, Decisive, Sensible, Laid-Back Farming, Levelheaded 华娱，杀伐果断，合理，悠闲种田，理智 Reader list LightheartedMale Channel 👍 If you're passing by, please follow, leave a review, and check out these top picks. I recommend all sorts of books, a real mixed bag. I've read most of them, and most have just one female lead. Full of wild ideas, with protagonists who are only one part of the world, not necessarily at its center. Not everything revolves around them. Almost no melodramatic plots, and the characters don't show off without reason. These books have a bit more class. The protagonists have feelings but aren't self- 47Books383Follows4moUpdated

  25. Every Book Is a Gem! 本本精品！ Editor's pick HistoricalMale Channel Genre doesn't matter, and neither does whether the author is famous. What matters is whether it's good and well written. I only recommend quality books, across all kinds of genres. Reading different kinds of books feels like experiencing different lives. You can't go wrong by saving this list! It'll let you roam across the Six Realms: gods, demons, immortals, monsters, ghosts, and humans. Whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, these books can help readers thrive in any situation, regardl 64Books2.8kFollows4moUpdated
  26. 🧠 Brain-Storage Library (Urban Fiction) 🧠脑子寄存图书馆(都市分类) Male ChannelSci-FiSystem Ahem... well, you can probably tell from the list name. There may be a lot of oddball books here. If you're into them, consider this a recommendation. If not, treat it as a list of books to avoid, haha. Still, life is exhausting, so in our spare time we want light, brainless power fantasies that don't make us think too hard (but they still need basic logic!!!!) (￣▽￣) This list mainly collects new urban novels between 50,000 and 900,000 characters. -I prefer light everyday stories, warm and hea 57Books791Follows4moUpdated

I grew up reading books from my grandfather's study, like The Hu Family Generals, The Yang Family Generals, Tai Chi Master, Investiture of the Gods, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Historical fiction, wuxia, and myths and legends are my favorites. In middle school, when the girls in my class were reading Qiong Yao and Xi Juan, I was reading Jin Yong. I didn't fit in with the girls, but I didn't have much in common 88Books75Follows4moUpdated

This list is updated from time to time. 2. Some books may become less engaging later on, but I added them because they made me fall in love at first sight, so I won't remove them. 3.

  35. Reading Drought Relief Station 书荒救济站 Editor's pick HistoricalMale Channel [Pinned] My reviews are too vague or focus too much on the early parts of a book, and they’re not very well written! If you’d like me to revise a review, leave a comment. I really will replace or edit it if needed, no empty flattery! I’ve been reading web novels for 16 years, and I’m so tired of mindless garbage. Books that are already popular don’t need me to recommend them. I mostly recommend niche stories, and hope they won’t be overlooked!
