Not ranked in order; fluffy, 1v1 (no harem), HE; entertaining <<less

Novels that contains a lot of informations related to it's industry/field. Well, some may not but at least they're career oriented yknow?... more>>

I don't include the overly mainstream ones unless I absolutely love them (re: entertainment)

Personally I prefer reading the manhwa adaptations of the Korean novels, btw, since most of them haven't been translated/dropped/still too far to catch up. <<less

Reincarnated or transmigrated females that use their modern skills and some cheats to survive and prosper. 

My personal list for this niche genre of novels - will be adding as I read. Charisma and leadership do not come easy, but they sure as hell come naturally for these protagonists. Charismatic MCs with significant focus on character and ability growth, kingdom / army / career development & management, and/or wholesome friendships / brotherhood. Romance (if any) will only be subplots, not the main focus. I've put short descriptions and summaries of every novel, plus my thoughts on them.... more>>

Arranged from best > worst > boring reading experience. I change my ratings often. Feel free to recommend more or point out any mistakes in my sorting of this list. Cheers!

*[CC] - Collecting Companions, aka collecting and raising loyal companions. Brotherhood, friendship, blablabla. [CC] focuses more on picking up and raising companions without necessarily having to develop a full kingdom/empire.

*[KB] - Kingdom Building. I'll use this abbreviation as a general umbrella term for anything to do with (insert noun)-building and management. [KB] by association would also include raising the people in that empire/kingdom, but the novels focus more on the development/management part. <<less

The unforgettable 60s-90s historical novels 

The best non bl novels with modern settings where a male or female protagonist transmigrates into a novel.

Historical novels with a female protagonist living in the period between 1960-1990 . Who doesn't like to get rich and improve their living conditions?

Let's continue shall we....?!??            Unpopular novels that is....                         ... more>> Go check-out (desires of the heart part 1, 2 & 3 and the popular novels for newbies) as well in my profile. As usual will be adding novels from time to time. Follow and keep updated. Mwuaaaah....!?!! <<less

Farming - Nurturing - Raising

BL novels with a complete translation. This is a compilation of all BL novels I’ve read that’s finished. 

This contains the bottom of the main list, All Novels I've Read Sorted By Rating! It was reaching the max limit so I've moved the stories rated 3 Stars and below and all the dropped novels here.... more>>

I have made a review and rating for every novel I've read on novelupdates. Since they don't have the user friendly capability of sorting a user's read list by rank I made one for myself ordered by best/enjoyed the most to least. The ranking within the same number of stars may not be right because it is usually from different genres, too different to compare with each other haha. Also, I didn't bother to ranked the dropped stories because I don't want to waste brainpower on that. So if I didn't give a rating, I won't sort it.

The other weaker alternative is the Reviews section in my profile but it can only be sorted by likes and date of review not by rank. The reason I want to put my rating and reviews straight in the list is because you can't search for a specific user's review in the novel page if there are too many reviews. You will have to search one by one. Its easier to straight up  see why I put the novel in a particular list plus my review in the list itself. Sigh, novelupdates is really not user friendly. <<less

A list of novels I would recommend along with my thoughts on them, in no particular order or rank. These are all novels I rated... more>> 4.5-5 stars. Novels with the * are my favourites. <<less

A list of novels with a cozy domestic vibe set in ancient china , where the ML/MC is transmigrated from modern times, using his modern... more>> knowledge ( technology , culinary , medecine, business...ect ) he starts to improve his and his partner's life style starting from the bottom and  rising to sucess . <<less

List of novels in my To Read list for my favourite trope, rags to riches! To my best guess anyway since I haven't read them XD. Also usually slice of life. ... more>>

I'll also put what made me want to pick the story up. Just be warned that I will delete the story from the list after I've read so the list will frequently change. I like to view the cover art of the book, and be able to see a lot of novel details on the list in one place instead of having to click to the web novel page. I also include any translation detail like where to find them if they aren't on novelupdates so I can read the whole story without getting stuck halfway because of no translations. Not in any particular order but I try to put similar novels, either in expected tropes or vibes together. And the incompleted ones at the back.  Recommendations are very welcome! <<less

I really enjoy novels that are set in ancient china where the MC starts at the bottom and raises to success (and they are farming!) so I'm compiling a list both BL and straight (though a lot of it is BL)... more>>

I'm not a huge fan of court drama or emperor stories, but don't be surprised if you find a few of those on here too! <<less

I have made a review and rating for every novel I've read on novelupdates.

The ranking within the same number of stars may not be right because it is usually from different genres, too different to compare with each other haha. All in one spot. The bottom of the list that are my lower rated and unranked/dropped novels, I have moved to  a new list "All Novels I've Read Sorted By Rating (3 Stars & Below + Dropped)" due to a list only having a max of 100. The... more>> other weaker alternative is the Reviews section in my profile but it can only be sorted by likes and date of review not by rank.

PS: I've made another list to put all the novels I've read rated 3 Stars and below and all the dropped novels because this list is getting long. In the future, this will be basically my Top 100 list. The others will be from ranked 101 onwards. <<less

No description.

We are now on our PART 3, list of the (NOT-SO-POPULAR NOVELS). Also check-out PART 1 & 2 so you will not missed-out some of... more>> those interesting stories. And the ( POPULAR NOVELS FOR NEWBIES) as well on my profile. As usual i'll keep adding novels from time to time so go, follow and be updated. Until then.....ciao..:-) <<less

These are all BL novels that I enjoyed and wouldn’t mind reading again. Most are light reads that aren’t too angsty or super dog blood. I get too immersed when reading so I always feel like I need therapy after reading those types of novels. Lol... more>>

I hope you find something enjoyable from my list. Happy reading~ <<less

No description.

Any recommendations are very welcome! All the family/village/kingdom building poor to rich, wealth making business type of stories I've read because this is one of... more>> my favourite tropes of all time! Including any business management! (Just discovered there is a tag for it haha) Its just that usually its not done very well or only the kingdom building is good and the characters and scaling is so bad its not enjoyable to read anymore. The stories included will have things like improving the quality of life of the village/kingdom, introducing modern advancements into an ancient/medieval culture type of place. And with likeable characters to keep you going. I'll only include the novels where I read 100% of it or most of it. Probably won't include any dropped novels. <<less

BL stories that do not include pregnancy. 

Any recommendations are very welcome! Stories where nothing really bad happens or if they do, there are really wonderful feel good scenes throughout most of the story. Something warm and sweet to read when stressed to make you smile, laugh or just feel happy. It's ranked according to rating which is basically how much I enjoyed the story. It's not ranked on how heartwarming the story is.... more>>

I wish I can put my own tags but I can't so I'll add some here haha:

Family is Important, Feel Good, Family Love, Warmth, Sweetness, Friends that feel like real friends <<less

Stories I genuinely really reeeeally love. I tried to order them but some of the stories I like for very different reasons so take the... more>> order with a grain of salt!  There are also a lot of stories with my favourite tropes but not as high a quality of writing or TL. It should be able to make me feel a holistic array of human emotions and especially must make me feel that excitement of wanting to know what will happen next! So cannot be a one note pure faceslapping story or just a sweet romance story. However, since there are so few of these, I put stories I enjoyed but isn't quite a favourite too lol Maybe I'll remove the not quite favourites later haha <<less
