Note: This is a personal book recommendation list. The review section contains a lot of personal opinions, and some comments may be controversial. Readers are welcome to engage in rational discussions and debates. My perspective as a reader is that of an observer and an admirer of stories, rather than putting myself in the shoes of the protagonist. Thus, I may find it difficult to connect with certain exhilarating moments. Additionally, I dislike novels with inconsistent characters and plots.
With that said, I’ll be recommending books based on several aspects such as storytelling, writing style, cultural depth, thematic significance, character development, world-building, originality of ideas, and plot structure, among others. If time permits, I’ll provide thoughtful insights into each novel. However, if I come across a book that I struggle to digest, I won't hesitate to share my critiques. Personally, I’m not a fan of wish-fulfillment novels; if you prefer those, you might find this list less enjoyable.
