...and clever MCs. (and sometimes clever villains)

Rebirth/Transmigration and Face Slapping villains; AND KINGDOM BUILDING are added bonus. <<less

Sometimes I feel like missing good stories with a considerable number of chapters. They make you confortable to read as fast as you like to,... more>> without being afraid of ending in just one afternoon. I hope you enjoy as much as I like these ones. (~'3')~ <3 <<less

Currently on going romance/ josei series that I'm reading. 

No specific order~

Depicted the coolest, calmest and collected MC who will not crumbled in any circumstances, inside or outside.... more>>

Reason of their calmness varied, usually being a "master" in their respective field. <<less

I am a sucker for (1) traditional, ancient setting w/ fantasy elements, xianxia (not really wuxia), tragedy, face-slapping, revenge, rebirth troupes. (2) fluffy, comedy that makes me rolling on the ground laughing... more>>

But I edit this list every time I finish reading a novel, so most of the time, the newer ones will be higher up. So the ranking is pretty biased. 
Just saying that I'm very picky and values rating (4.5 or above is usually my cut off, although there are some exceptions. OR sometimes the novel rating decreased over time)

Just keep in mind that I'm a person who if a story can make me cry my eyes out, that story will inevitably rank higher than those that are just as good, but do not have a tragic element to it. Generally, tragic stories leave more of an impression on me <<less

Stories full of holes but somehow you gladly fall for them. A hidden gem once you pass by their weaknesses. (No particular order) 

Happy Ending novels

My go-to Chinese Novels.

Most Japanese novels have either a Beta MC or an ending that rips open your heart with tragedy. Koreans have a problem with their moral compass and Chinese think that the only way to live is through DOMINANCE... There are very few novels where the MC is not a typical douche-bag...... more>>

In the middle of all these distortions, there are a few novels that stand out and can be named as great enough to keep in memory...

In my list, I recommend my favourites... Any discontent with the list can be discussed after you show me a better list... <<less

List of novels that I don't find especially disgusting.... more>>

(Although I have complaints about every novel, these novels are ones where I managed to find entertainment value in and stuck with for at least a while) <<less

BL novel where I am in love with the protagonists. ... more>>

Few traits of MC that I really like are listed as tags. Though I don’t like stereotype where the MC is an idiot or dense throughout the entire novel and mostly I am into cunning & clever protagonist. 

P.S this is my personal preference!  <<less

I don't read BL Novels so much but these are Bl novels that i read and liked a lot

I hope this list can grow. <<less

I feel many of these novels came in to my life at the right time for how hard they affected me. However, these are the... more>> small amount of novels that I would truly recommend for others. All of this are in my opinion the best of their genre or very all rounded and wholesome to read. P.s. I do know Chinese so the Chinese novels recommended are still going strong plotwise and character wise. <<less

Amazing novels I recommend to family and friends.

I like slow romance and slice of life stories, calm and clever protagonists and definitely not into over the top cruelty or face slapping.... more>>

Of the modern romance themed novels I've read, these are some of the ones I liked the most! They may be not what I typically prefer as mentioned above, but I still enjoyed reading them. Suggestions welcome! <<less

It's simply novels set in an noble/royal structure with an female MC that I enjoy. They may or may not be good people, but they... more>> are usually the reason I read these. Some have reincarnation, others not. <<less
