I tend to read novels with dark haired Fl's, so i made this list for the people who are like me:DD

Different genres, some i have read the novel or manhwa version and some are just added because of the FL's hair color. <<less

No description.

Transmigration + Apocalype... more>>

Second chance + Apocalype <<less

My personal dump for yandere and crazy manipulative gongs who deserve jail time but are still hot ^-^ 

This list is about the genre I enjoy and can't get enough of; I'm also looking for stories in the same genre, but I don't... more>> like BL, Yuri, or gender benders. <<less

Novels worth reading with smuts.

a mix of bad, mediocre and really good quick transmigration marked with "×" are the ones I dropped.

(scuse my bad writing and lack of punctuation )... more>>

(Will add more as I find) <<less

No description.

This is the list of scum gong and their karma danmei. Yes, cliche, dog blood, drama, angst. Why not?... more>>

And this is what I’ve read and I think good enough to be recommended. But this list focused more on scum gong and their karma, a satisfying redemption arc. If you wanna read the angsty ones, heavy angst to main character death, check my other list “ANGSTY Danmei to be Read At Least Once in a Lifetime” <<less

When one is dead all the truths and misunderstands clear leading to endless regret for those alive... more>>

especially ML - if he didn't cherish her alive, too late now cause she is dead 

For some reason I like watch ML fall apart ...the crippling love

will include ones where FL dies a lot <<less

A list with characters who are fond of plotting against their enemies, are uncovering great schemes and/or of characters who are caught in the schemes of their enemies. ... more>>

Stories with big schemes that will make your mind blow and your head dizzy.

Top 17 are some of the most scheming protagonists imo, only the first three are ranked according to whom I belive are the most schemming of all, the other ones were hard to decide qwq, though they are more or less ranked too. Those guys are really cunning...

The ones more at the bottom are, either not soooo schemming or not really schemming at all, they were caught in other people's schemes and conspiracies, don't know if it would be convinient to point them out to differenciate. <<less

And not just romantic love but familial love as well. 

Collection of sad bls. No particular order. 

LOVED reading and would highly recommend.... more>>

All completed novels. <<less

For the drama loving b*tches 

Ongoing list.  If you're looking for some sad or dramatic stuff (with a HE). 
Some have a lighter tone than others. But all of these contain elements like ~complicated relationships, dogblood drama, tragic pasts, betrayal, or deaths. ... more>>

All of these have English translations. 

I have them sorted by genre

1-5: modern setting 6-7: world hopping novels8-13: xianxia 
14-18: more general fantasy or primarily historical  <<less

My list of danmei novels that I truly love, with amazing plot and world building, interesting characters, and good translations! ... more>>

I really like unique stories so I try my best to find stories with unusual and refreshing plots that are different, though sometimes clichéd and trope-ish stories will be included if executed well, also since it’s kind of my guilty pleasure ʅ（◞‿◟）ʃ 

I really enjoy tragedies with happy endings, psychological and angst so be prepared for dog blood in some of them! I include both popular and underrated stories, though I’m definitely trying to dig around the more underrated ones I’ve read and newly discovered ones to recommend.

I’m a very picky reader so I don’t add stories frequently, but still regularly so!!

I update this list when I find a book i enjoy extremely!! <<less

awful sibling relationships (step-siblings, siblings as villains, fake child, scum family, family conflict as major plot point) :) i luv this trope... more>>

(not in order) <<less

This list has both BL and BG novels. ... more>>

Beware that not all novels have the satisfying groveling scenes from ML. 

I included some BE novels where I felt that the decisions MC took was very fitting even if there is no groveling from the ML or if the MC is dead to see that part. 

You’ll find most of Shui Qian Cheng’s novels who is well known for her 188cm group of novels featuring angsty novels about scum going groveling for their mistakes.

I only included the novels I was satisfied with.

Caution: Enjoy these novels, but avoid romanticizing the ML or fantasizing them as great lovers. Most of the MLs are just awful people, except for my beloved Lan Zhan, who is the epitome of kindness, Justice & all the good things. Remember, in real life, those who treat others poorly are likely to treat you the same way or mistreat you repeatedly will continue to mistreat you. Those who are controlling, manipulative, and obsessive never end with happy endings. Change in adults is difficult, even with love. Look into real-life cases of abusive partners to get a reality check.

Do keep that in mind. Hope you enjoy the novels below. <<less

This list will focus on protagonists which have been abandoned by their childhood sweethearts or best friends. I will probably also add some stories which... more>> has strong theme of abandonment and loneliness <<less

This list contains everything from unrequired love to death of loved ones to sadistic tendencies, violence, r*pe, betrayal, love-hate and any other possible way to... more>> make your heart bleed. Trauma and psychological conditions included.  <<less
