Mainly CN novels because I love Xianxia, I love them so much. Have a look. 

This is an addiction

So enjoying romance novels is very rare of me and I’m glad to find these amazing gems if I hadn’t decided to go check them out!

Most of the bottom ones have adaptations which is a surprise and I’m satisfying myself by reading them.

If anyone has any recommendations, please comment below! And if possible similar to the ones listed in this list!

A/N: This year Konorano panel completely gave up on trying to include genuinely good novels and just filtered out novels with high sales (due to anime adaptation). Disappointing.

I have verified all the above standards strictly. Especially the first love tag ^^... more>>
