Novels I've completed reading (ordered by rating)

Xianxia and Qi Cultivation are the hallmarks of the Chinese Novels, but the Chinese Web Novel scene has so much more to offer than Qi Cultivation alone.... more>>

Here is a list of the best Chinese Web Novels that don't use traditional Qi Cultivation.

Like my other list, this list is still under construction. If you have any novels you believe deserve to be on this list, please leave them down below in the comments.

Thank you =]

*** Spoiler Warning for contents listed below *** <<less

Horror, comedy, toxicity, slow burn (not for the sake of slow burn but BC the relationship is actually being ~developed~), character growth, GOOD PLOT. I love it all. And in the same novel? Peak. I like it when the plot is first, the romance is like a fine coating of cheese throughout everything.... more>>

Also. I dislike transmigration, slice of life, and pure tragedy. <<less

-He protec, He attac, but most importantly he's a snacc  ... more>>

#GreenflagML deserve to be popular too  <<less

-For me personally, sometimes the story don't need to add too much of smut scene or better focus more only the relationship of FLxML and their growth. <<less

Full setting, world building, plot and romance that I like for a long time reading (mostly have long chapters). BL GOAT series in my mind

-Korean Edition... more>>

Amazing Novels You May Have Missed

I love a good selfish female lead. Not a mean one but someone who would never let others mistreat or overuse them.... more>>

Those are the ones I found so far. <<less

novels like debut or die!!

Life’s hard, man. In this rec, you’ll find novels with characters that move forward from their tragic past and from societal standards, characters that find a way to live for themselves despite a system, plot, entity, or life from preventing them to do so. ... more>>

This list includes strong, courageous characters that disobey the system, original plot line, and fate through the ability to think and desire to choose their own happy ending. From world hopping to transmigration novels, these characters have dignity, grit, and values - both of which they are not willing to break regardless of what a system or entity says. 

-  includes transmigration novels where the characters struggles, suffers, or is punished for disobeying the original plot line; and characters who are able to fight the charms and effects of their own system and other people’s systems

- includes characters with grit and defiance to fate: characters that have been reborn or transmigrated way too many times, characters in game and different worlds that are trying to survive and find their own happy ending, despite the plot and other characters preventing them from doing so

- includes characters who portray growth; includes characters who are able to make peace with their past and move forward and find their own happiness <<less

Another VERY subjective list! In case it's not obvious, I've been reading A LOT of CN Romance lately! Recommendations are always welcome! The rating is based on Story > Characters. Check out my others lists here:... more>>
