    Who are the authors that a reader should avoid?
    For me its Goose Five. I was enjoying reading the strongest abandoned son(already in chapter 687) and got curious about the spoilers but it made me disappointed and losed all the motivation of reading the rest of the novel. Turns out his other novel "The Gate Of Good Fortune" is also a failure and the ratings for those novels are reasonable.

    I haven't read "The Gate of Good Fortune", but since people keep saying it is actually a misspelling of "Misfortune", so anyone spoil about what exactly is "Good Fortune" in the novel?

    Situational, I'd say. If you want actual meaningful relationships, stay away from Mars Gravity. Good cultivation novels, yes, but the romance is pretty shallow sometimes. I mean, ATG has pretty okay romance, but the rest of his novels push the "getting stronger" and "destroy your enemies" vibes a bit harder. A lot harder.

    You want a completed novel?

    Don't touch Mad Snail.

    I mean the few he has completed are pretty good but still

    The only author that springs to mind is Ayn Rand, most books should be read or not read based on whether they are good or not, but Ayn Rand writes good books that have seductive and easy to believe themes that can trap the unwary (like me as a freshman in highschool).

    I read close to 80-100 pages of Atlus Shrugged and I couldn’t see the hype. I read it because I love Bioshock 1&2 and it was just so boring.

    The author who wrote "A Monster Who Levels Up". The novel's journey was enjoyable to read, but the destination was completely shit. If you want to read A Monster Who Levels Up, read it all except for the last 2 chapters. Pretty sure the author of this novel writes absolutely shitty ending for his other novels too.

    Read the reviews here mate. SAS apparently had a lot of plot holes and forgotten plot threads, plust even worse repetitiveness than others of the same genre. which is saying something.
