Of the many thing to enjoy in life reading is one of them. I read in English and Spanish. It can be "regular" books, Light novels, Webnovels, and Audiobooks. I do get eye strain so I take my time reading. Genres of interest are Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Contemporary_Teen_ Young_Adult, Non-fiction, Autobiography, Life, Science, Society, Mental_Health, Technology, and Religion.

There's at least 2 other Chinese light_novels / web_novels that are great but are on "hiatus". In reality they are discontinued because they didn't pass the Chinese government filter so the authors cannot finish them.
