Just me and my very cliché taste in novels

Includes historical and modern Chinese stories... more>>

I’ll add to this as I read more novels  <<less

Stories set on any era and culture of the west: classical, medieval, renaissance, industrial revolution, victorian, world war, fictional universe, etc. Please beware of mature contents. Straight romance only.... more>>

Note: This list is still underconstruction. Some may be added in, some may be taken out. For the later case, it's usually because suddenly I don't like the direction the stories are heading to. The sorting can sometimes also change, because at the front page, I want to present the underrated stories rather than the already famous stories.  <<less

A list of all the new shining stars of the genre.... more>>

PS: I'm an avid reader of HR novels but my initial list of favorites was getting too long so I simply divided it in 2. There's one list for the well-known classics & one for the upcoming shakers.  This here is obviously the latter. On that note, happy reading :)

Rating:   ❤️❤️❤️ To-die-for             ❤️❤️ Greatly entertaining                     ❤️ Enjoyable 

For more, my all times "Best historical novels" list is here: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/19039/ <<less

romance with a focus on sweet, unconditional love and a little bit of hurt/comfort — novels that will tug at your heartstrings. includes mini reviews and besides the first two novels, which are my favorites i've read so far, the order of the list has no meaning. ... more>>

though a novel can fall under multiple categories, here they are categorized by what i believe to be the dominant, general theme (transmigration not included since imo most novels don't make full use of that aspect):

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤshow biz / 1, 4, 10, 13     

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤceo / 2, 8, 8, 14    

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤschool / 3, 5, 12, 20    

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤhistorical / 6, 7, 11, 17, 18, 19 <<less
