All the books from slow romance to fast paced that kept me on the edge

No description.

I've been reading danmei since lockdown back in 2020 and these are some of the novels that I read in no particular order (except for the first one bc MDZS got me into the danmei pit LOL). I've actually read too many to remember at once so I'll add them slowly one by one. ... more>>

*Note- this list is extremely chaotic since im adding all books I've read regardless of the genre. 

However, on the bright side, I'm a really picky reader(as well as a huge picky eater) so I can assure you all of these books are amazing (at least at some point).  <<less

Wuxia: Martial arts, but nothing else, People practice martial arts. They are mortals and their goal is not to be immortal.
Xianxia: Wuxia + C-nese magic-based mainly on Daoism
Xuanhuan: eastern fantasy, Might have cultivation, but it's more fantasy than anything... more>>

A favorite Korean manhua  -> Trinity Wonder

Jianghu/kangho: the most generalised answer is “The part of the world the imperial court doesn’t have direct jurisdiction over.” You are talking about brothels, gangs, bandits, slums, the underworld, rogue disciples from various sects and more. There's no order and rife with crime. It's like taobao, lol. Wulin/murim: refers to specifically and only to martial arts schools/sects/cults etc. The wulin is considered the refined, respected and virtuous people in society; they're also placed higher on the hierarchy. There's order. If jianghu is taobao, Wulin is Tmall.

Books that have successfully passed the judgment of that annoyingly meticulous inner critic of mine (which is a feat of a great complexity on its... more>> own, I assure you). Hop on the train if you're looking for enjoyable reading, plotlines interwoven with the intricacies of all sorts (or the ones of lighthearted simplicity) and vast assortment of the characters of all kinds! <<less
