Just watched the anime and now I’m curious about what happens later.

Mostly (queer) fiction these days.
I read more when I was younger and most of the books here are still imports from several years ago (and many of those, especially the to-read shelf, were very random; the to-read shelf can basically be disregarded altogether). Younger-ish reads are still archived as handwritten lists in notebooks on my shelf.

Someone recommended this online (I think cited by Martha Wells as a favourite?) and it’s delightful!

I think there are four volumes so I’m not sure where this is headed (except maybe mpreg?? that’s not a spoiler; the system had a throw-away line about it very early on) but I’m curious!

Have to return to library (too many things competing for my attention) but I look forward to buying this to read when the paperback comes out!

This sounds very delightfully madcap, hopefully a bit more cheerful than Scum Villain's Self-Saving System?

Content warning Some spoilers about the end
I found some of the omegaverse stuff in-universe ("gender" roles etc.) really annoying and frustrating; the MC (from "our world") does push back against them in a way but I still found it frustrating (compared to his uncle's approach, other character approaches), but on the other hand he was sucessful (along with the help of others) and things change a lot by the end so it did feel like there was a lot of progress.

It took me a while to remember this one, but now that I think back, it was kind of high school hijinks/redemption; pretty fun!
elevenses commented on Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being by 冰糖莲子羹
The genius cultivator Lin Xuanzhi didn’t let down the world in his past life, yet …
It look me a while to read this one as I kind of stopped after reading volume two; the narrative shifted gears and I felt a bit like I had to reorient myself. The story was so large and intricate with so many characters, but the plot really all came together in the end in a really satisfying way; at first, earlier on, it felt like we were coming to a close but there was so much book yet, and then it felt a bit like breaking through the ceiling into so much more complexity. Anyway, I quite enjoyed this one!

Okay so I'm not done reading this one yet, but it has been an enjoyable but also very unpredictable ride so far; my eyebrows have definitely been raised a lot!

The film emperor, Qin Yize, has a secret. He secretly married an Omega with a …
Content warning A bit of a spoiler about the end/motivations
Again, recording this after the fact. I felt like the sort of reveal later on that the MC kind of tricked the ML into marrying him was a little unexpected/kind of soured my perception as a reader a bit? (Even if ML didn't seem to mind.) However, it was fun to read more about this universe of characters.

I'm adding this after the fact so my memory is a little lacking, but I remember this being quite fun.

I liked this! It felt more like an episode than a stand-alone, but very enjoyable and additional characters growth/development was great.
