All criminal investigation novels I enjoyed. And everyone is damned good! We have leaders, profilers, criminal psychology experts, and consultants. And they are all awesome!

I felt the need to make a separate list dedicated to the fantasy and story focused novels, ranging from xianxia, wuxia, ancient times to mystery, sci-fi and horror genres, with a more mature bl romance subplot.... more>>

One of the most memorable novels that kept me on tenterhooks through the whole read.

Ps. I really really love all these webnovels and anyone who disses any of these novels will be chased by Slenderman in their dreams!! I'm open for discussion though.

Horror, comedy, toxicity, slow burn (not for the sake of slow burn but BC the relationship is actually being ~developed~), character growth, GOOD PLOT. I love it all. And in the same novel? Peak. I like it when the plot is first, the romance is like a fine coating of cheese throughout everything.... more>>

Also. I dislike transmigration, slice of life, and pure tragedy. <<less

Novel recommendations not link to NU in the comment section. <<less

Read Lord of the Mysteries and fell absolutely head over heels for it. these are some novels i think have similar elements: lovecraftian/occult horror, steampunk/victorian vibes, themes of humanity fighting against fate, etc.  A mix of read and TBR, as well as BL/GL/gen.... more>>

Recs from outside of Novelupdates:

- Mother of Learning on RoyalRoad, TBR. time loop f*ckery babeyyy. apparently there’s a good magic system and some character development. I’ve heard nothing of good things about this one!

- The Forsaken Sovereign on Webnovel, TBR. LOVECRAFTIAN THEMES AND ELDRITCH GODS I AM SO EXCITED. 

(feel free to forum message me to gush about any of these novels!) <<less
