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

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

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

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

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

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

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

No description.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Some of the really good ones, imo.... more>>

There're multiple genres in here. Some of the novels are paywalled.

The first seven are my top 7. The rest are not in any particular order.
