I fell in love with business farming novels with FL. I thought I would share it with u. ????... more>>

Update: I found an app, BabelNovel, that has a lot of farming novels with female protagonists, but English translation is poor for some. It will require much patience.  <<less

I have collected the few stories with reasonable & moral characters and character development. In most of these stories, the powers  MCs have are earned... more>> not given. I have avoided harem tags like the plague, due to many cardboard cutout supporting characters. However, the few stories with harem tags listed actually have characters with at least 2D/3D personalities. almost all of these have a rating of 4+ as the quality(rating) is more important than the quantity(popularity). Incomplete stories can be pirated using nyaa.si, vn miedo, ect. <<less

Stories in which female protagonists and others are hopefully not one-dimensional i.e. just ruthless, just silly, high-IQ/low-EQ. Side characters (mostly) have lives outside of the protagonist and/or male lead. Villains aren’t downright TSTL. ... more>>

Last three newly added: #9 | Don’t Touch Porcelain, #22 | Unconscious, #14 | I Am Average and Unremarkable

No. 1 - No. 32 | Incomplete Translations

No. 33+ | Complete Translations

Not in any particular order except for whether they’re complete or not. 

A huge thank you to all the translators who translated these gems and gave me the opportunity to enjoy them <<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

These are my favorite novels with transmigration, reincarnation and second chances as main themes*. I like slice of life, slow romance stories with good world-building... more>> and MCs who are calm, intelligent, not cruel and not too OP (if at all).  
I enjoyed reading the novels in this list but they may not be what I would typically like as mentioned above. Suggestions welcome. <<less

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

Amazing novels I recommend to family and friends.

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

I'd rather read these novels when they update than sleep... more>>

#49 - #57 are short stories/one-shot novels <<less

My absolute favourite titles and definitely my most recommended ones.... more>>

I hope this list can grow. <<less

No description.

Villainess books that I would 100% recommend to those who like the genre! My criteria is that they were either transmigrated into a villainess body, once a villainess or act villainess-y. Rankings don't matter, but I try to put the lesser knowns above. Enjoy and I hope this list helps!!... more>>

*If novels are not getting updated, I will drop it. Exceptions are made only because I enjoyed reading it a lot <<less

Well after reading novel in novelupdates.com for about 3 years. Here what i think the best novels that could be found here are:

These are the novels that I highly recommend you all to read due to the great plot, character development, and sometimes just the plain joy... more>> it will bring to you to feel a part of the novel your are reading. It's got plenty of antihero and exciting plot that just keeps on giving. Synopsis near the bottom... usually, no promises.  <<less

This my list for my fav romance Chinese novel. My favorite type is (not so) short story. At most 200ish chapter. Enjoy Reading!

BG novels I have on my lists. ... more>>

Mostly consists of FMCs but here and there, there might be MMCs. 

Note: When I have finished a novel or I have time, I will update certain novels with a description.  <<less

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

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

There some not bad novels without isekai,self wishfulfilment and big plotholes.

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

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

My go-to Chinese Novels.

Surrounded by loyal protective companions? Good stuff. Platonic harem and bonds? Heck yeah. MC smartly planning ahead and sometimes humorously misunderstood?  Dig it. Bromance? YES!... more>>

This is my jam~ ✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧

I like stories where the MC is loved and cherished by his people (but not romantically, not into harem).Though I still ship MC with other characters sometimes (〃'▽'〃). 

Some are more of a slice-of-life, with little actions, but more focusing on the deep bonds of the main characters.  I only put series that I've actually read, with my little comments on it, I'm definitely up to recommendations for similar trope.  

Top best three asides, the rest are in no particular order. Enjoy! <<less

Happy Ending novels
