- For When You’re in a Reading Slump: Updated Whenever I Find a Gem 书荒可看，发现佳作就更新 I favor urban, historical, slice-of-life, and fantasy novels. 👉 Classics, completed gems, and great web novels are shared in the comments. 👉 I don't update the list often. It can only hold 50 books from this site, so when I add new ones, completed gems may be moved to the comments. 👉 I like sharing works with sound values and solid logic. I hope someone can recommend some older books. The new releases are hard to stomach. 56Books337Follows1dUpdated

- Future Jun’s Handpicked Reads 未来君看的精品书 I've read novels for years and have seen all kinds of genres. I've been making recommendation lists for nine years, too. Most of the books on my lists are ones I've read myself. I've gotten to know each one and appreciate what makes it special and different from the rest. Everyone has their own favorite genres. If the books I recommend happen to suit your tastes, that's wonderful. The books I recommend are all excellent and a pleasure to read. Everyone's welcome to join me.

- We’re Bailing Out, Guys. A Guide to Avoiding Duds When You’re in a Reading Slump 跑毒了兄弟们，书荒避坑指南 Books I'm reading or have read, rated out of 10. For good books, a 10 means I followed the story to the end and the plot stayed solid throughout, with no dull spots. A 9 means I kept reading without finding a reason to drop it; once it's finished, it becomes a 10. An 8 means I wasn't eager to keep up, but it was still enjoyable and had no dealbreakers. A 7 means I read up to the latest chapter, or stopped before that; there were no dealbreakers, but I just wasn't that interested in continuing. A 93Books195Follows4dUpdated

- Top-Tier Apocalypse Fiction! 末世精品！ The apocalypse is no place for a bleeding heart. You don’t have to be ruthless, but you need to consider the consequences of your actions. I, for one, have no patience for a protagonist who’s too nice for their own good! Qidian has so few good post-apocalyptic novels, so I’ve had to make do... These days, so many apocalypse stories give the protagonist a System or some other golden finger that there’s no tension in everyday life. How can you call that an apocalypse?

As if departing, yet still present; neither busy nor idle. No need to exhaust heart or strength, yet free from hunger and cold. No official duties all year round, 97Books2.7kFollows11dUpdated

- Urban Fiction, Entertainment, and Transmigration: The Best Picks 都市、文娱、穿越精品 1. My main focus is urban and entertainment-industry fiction, with some historical, sci-fi, and spacefaring stories, as well as the occasional indescribable masterpiece. Xuanhuan, cultivation, and immortal-demon fiction rarely make this list. That’s just my personal taste. 2. I often browse other people’s lists too. Whenever I see a book I love recommended by lots of readers, I’m happy, but also a little intimidated. I can only work harder to avoid repeating the great books already on everyone e 100Books1kFollows1moUpdated

- Needle in a Haystack 大海捞针 The road to becoming a great author isn't easy. I've seen many good books get no exposure and then get dropped, which is heartbreaking. In recent years, I've had to cut back on my spending and can't support the authors I like as much as I'd wish. The least I can do now is avoid pirated copies. I hope we can come together to support outstanding authors. If you find a good book on this list, please support its author with subscriptions, votes, or tips. Thank you. 50Books45Follows1moUpdated
