        Yeah if you want I can also post some general guides, though I think that a community like that will never be as big and active as it was in the old days. At least it won’t require much moderation.

          Yeah I was thinking that. That’s why I decided to not make it like r/MartialMemes or r/Xianxia. Too overly specific and we’ll get like one post every 2 months and that’s gonna be me any time I open a new book. But at least there were like 5 people in this thread interested in Chinese literature so I was like, that’s cool, time for the community I’d been yearning since I joined (first thing in my bio lol).

            Yeah I think I read (mostly halfway to quarter way through) all the xianxia novels that I found interesting and wouldn’t mind finding something new. Going to read the 3 body problem soon before it gets made into the netflix series.

              My dad was reading that and I started seeing it everywhere. I’ll download it then and see if it’s interesting when I have free time.

              Currently also rereading your much hated Cradle

                  x) jk

                  And yeah. You did more than I would. I think I don’t finish 9out of 10 shows I start. Triple that for books. Not sure I’ve finished a book I didn’t like yet.

                    Think I finished 6 translated Chinese novels, 2 of those were under 1k chapters. Just took me a decade :). I think it’s impossible to finish one of these novels without liking it, 2k chapters is a grind that’s like 200+ hours per novel.
