I will also mention why I'm hesitant and don't start reading them right away.

Once I read some novels from this list I will not remove them, instead I will give my comments so you can see both my hesitations in the beginning and my actual impression after picking them up. Maybe some of you have similiar hesitations so it might help you with your choice. <<less

I've reviewed all the novels' reviews. So basically, all the novels here passed my very own "Screening Standards" (no sad ending, mostly romance always part of the story, mostly Female Protagonist, a little bit to almost none bloodbath, etc). A must read for myself and maybe for you who have the same "type" as me! 

This list is being updated continuously so you better check it every few weeks (the ones that I've read would be removed from this list and moved to my other list, "Novel That I've Read Part 1/2/3". <<less

short review based off of what I remember liking and disliking from each novel (some I haven’t read in a while so let’s hope I can grasp coherent thoughts)

each will also have a personal enjoyment and objective score rating at the end.  (rankings are based off a combo of these)

NOTE: I made this on a whim at 1am so I’m prob gonna change around some stuff and I know theres only a few novels here right now but I’m going to be re-reading some stuff I know I enjoyed before adding them here to make sure my opinions make sense. also Otonari No Tenshi is overrated af
