Reverse harem, shoujo, romance HET rec list that has CN, JP, KR novel recs.

One Night Stands, Single Parents, Adoption...anything with adorable children. 

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

Cooking, farming, business management and the likes. Might be boring for some.

BL that involves great, supportive (non scheming/back-stabbing/bad in general) family from either and/or both MC and ML's side or just really cute kids that you just wanna pinch their cheeks while screaming 'AAAAWW'. (I'm a goner for family tropes)... more>>

In no particular order <<less

2018-2021

New one, old ones ,all kind of genres.... more>>

There will be BL / GL / AND STRAIGHT COUPLE ROMANCE

Don't expect many harems with characters who can't think for themselves or fall in love with the MC before page 1. Many might have a slow moving plot... have to invest yourself into the characters to find the tragic, beautiful and poignant!... more>>

1. Trailer tr*sh

Note that I've been recently pruning and updating the list to remove some that were just good stories with average characters and move them over to new lists that are top of their genre. You can see all my rec lists at https://www.novelupdates.com/user/10378/tallrice/ <<less

when you're tired of going through every upload to see which synopsis tickles your fancy, you decide to kill time by creating a recommendation list until new uploads come out... but for real these are some good ones to read if you're a person of good taste ... more>>

***note: there's no order or ranking

Edit: Hello, I made a part 2 list because I hit the max: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/5381/ <<less

as long as there's kids, regardless of reincarnating into a noblewomen with kids or reincarnating into a child

As is says on the title. Any story that contains raising children and family fluff.  Single parents, adopted children, found families, or naturally conceiving, all are welcome!... more>>

*Not including the stories where for some reason, the parent figure suddenly f*cks their children, looking at you usa** dr*p and uch*mu**me <<less

Wake up one day only to find- what?! I'm a mom???... more>>

Skip pregnancy, skip the man, we're here for adorable kids! <<less

There are motherhood loves in this list

Novels that I adore and am caught up with (translated/MTL wise). If I managed to finish these, then they're definitely worth a shot at reading (my own biased opinion.) ... more>>

Give these novels some love! <3

(No specific order)  <<less

something to keep track everything I've read so far... more>>

pls don't mind the remarks and numbers. Its just my bookmarks hehe <<less

among the treacherous backstabbers, schemers, and abusive relatives that fiction is rife with, here you'll find those rare good people that care about their children,... more>> parents, siblings, and found family. may contain small spoilers!  <<less

✓List is full please check out list 2 here:https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/25580/... more>>

1. Fluffy Novels with rougly <100 to 200 chapters (no. of raw chapters)

Mostly CN, HE and BG --- no, 1 - 37 are completed

2. Each story has its own characteristics. There are modern day, ancient, transmigration, showbiz, business, rebirth, second chances, cultivation etc.

3. The best part of these novels is that, as they are so short, they have no drags, elaborate schemes, unnecessary plot twists, repeated scenes, lengthy dialogues, too much angst, etc.

4. You can easily MTL it on (MTLNOVEL. .com)  

5. The relationships are respectable with no r*pe, S&M type relationships, gory or other disturbing elements presents 

6. The most attractive elements of these novels is LOVE:  sweet & sour, fluffy romantic love (or) heartwarming 'aww' relationships between family. Some even can be defined as couple goals. Hot, passionate, fiery ,obsessive love that stabilises over time from its initial madness (or) sweet, mature, slow but steady love that's nutured with care, understanding and proper communication.

Do comment below if you've any suitable additions for the list as I am still expanding as I explore more. <<less

A little bit of everything. Every story on this list is my favorite. The #1 will be the most recent story I added to the... more>> list. <<less

There are so many amazing works that feature regressed MCs that are going through a second chance in management, corporate ladders, sports, cooking, etc. Definitely stronger list than the second chance in fantasy. Wanted to make a list that specifically targets this genre.... more>>

First, some of the best that aren't on NU:
1. Trailer tr*sh - wonderful depiction of a second chance high school life with strongly developed characters
2. Metaworld chronicles - only barely qualifies because it's really a fantasy world, but it's an alternate modern day Earth, with great detail and development of cultures and places and set in a modern society, if magic based
3. Let me make you a star - [have not yet read] but has good ratings, comment if you've had a chance to read it!

In addition, there are a number of great drama/TV shows (JP, CN and KR) of second chances that I highly recommend if you like this genre. I've added them in a comment below the list.

If you enjoy second chances, you can also try my other lists on:
- Second chances in fantasy (https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10749/)
- Time loops (includes movies and webnovels not on NU - https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10681/) <<less

This list is specifically for second chances/age regression in fantasy, historical or VRMMO settings. 
- Not transmigration stories (see: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/16246/)
- Not time loop stories (see: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10681/)
- Not second chances in modern society (see:  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/10745/)... more>>

I'll start with a big recommendation for:
1. Metaworld chronicles - wonderful series with well developed characters, magic, monsters and dragons, all set to a really well explored alternate modern Earth fuelled by magi-tech. It's the best in the genre and you should try it out!
2. Selena's Reign - only around 20 chapters out so far, but they're really well done. Beautiful descriptions (though sometimes a bit verbose) and the best depictions of a late 18th century setting that I've seen in an online fantasy. Read this for the magical second chance messiah in a gritty, Louis XIV->Napoleon type time frame world.
3. The Calamity of a Reborn Witch - more of a shoujo take on things, it's filled with political plots and conspiracies of a cinderella type heroine in a rather dark fantasy world
4. Forgotten Conqueror (this was on hiatus for a long time but restarted on the author's site) <<less

Isekai/time travel/fantasy fic with family/found family themes and raising kids

No description.

Lots of cute buns, family themes and fluffiness.

(CN-only) it’s either there’s a lack of these kinds of lists or i’m blind every time i look for one, but here’s some good ol' sibling love. just siblings looking out for each other, in whatever form it may be.... more>>

its hard to find good sibling stories where the siblings are consistently one of the main focuses, so some in of these stories it is noted that the siblings "come and go".

※ all novels listed i have read completely through translation or MTL unless stated otherwise <<less

❗No more chapters? No problem! I GOT MTL/RAW LINKS! ... more>>
