These are just my personal favourite, may have forgotten some so please put below any other recommendations. Most of the books here are either completed and fully translated or have a substantial amount of chapters built up already so u can binge. This list will probably be updated occasionally and is kinda..? in order from best to worst.... more>>

So here we go...  <<less

Ever got tired of the same old sh!t of questionably problematic relationships? Or of some stup!d characters and world building? ... more>>

If so, here lies a humble list of my favorites, in which the MC's are likable and the ML's aren't ªssholes in plot disguise... 

(Will include themes like reincarnation, transmigration, Isekai, time travel, revenge/strategic plots, xianxia, fantasy/medieval/sci-fi/game worlds, romance, friendship, badªssery, humor, drama, action, adventure and, more)

 There're recommendations in the comments too! Make sure you guys look there too since I haven't found some awesome works as novels here. <<less

Started reading novels since 2016 and this list reflects all things I've read.

Men who are clever and capable and cunning without being absolute wretches of humanity.... more>>

Action, fantasy, isekai, adventure novels,...... no harem/romance ... more>>

Because i cant search for some novels so i decided to put it here:

+ The Live (has the same author as The Hero Returns): Very recommended!! <<less

Novels that I personally think are 10/10. No particular genres, all I care about is how good the story, characters, world building, and translation is.

This is a sublist of my previous list "Novels I am willing to re-read", and compromises of only the BL novels to make it easier... more>> for the BL lovers. As you might realize from the Novels in my list I dislike weak MC who only lean on the ML, although I let it slide in some novels when the story has enough substance. <<less

Extremely satisfying slaps from our cunning protagonist

This is a continuation from my other list ah XD I reached the limit hehe

Most of the translation are incomplete, but some of it I already finished reading from other translation website or just mtled. Note that I don't put... more>> the list in ranking. Just simply a list. <<less

No description.

I dug up my reading list and gathered here novels that have a realistic perspective, not about building the world, but about building the relationship. They are fun to read and are a refreshment of some stories when the romance is written in a hurry and forced to the reader hahaha... more>>

=== BG and BL included ====

Many times, when searching for hiding novels to read, I found myself almost discarding some amazing stories just because the synopsis are deceptive.... So here many of the descriptions are mine/some angel that described perfectly the feeling you got when read them o(≧▽≦)o  <<less

Raise a hand if you recognize: A sweet/wild/sexy/dangerous/smart/lively/pure Chinese girl meets an overbearing boss/actor/CEO/prince/cultivator/general/demon/'god' of any field, and he falls in love with her. As soon as they have any sort of relationship, the girl becomes a pretty prop, while the guy is the one doing/deciding everything. Male friends? Forbidden! Going somewhere alone? Forbidden! Doing something slightly dangerous? Forbidden! Oh, she talked to a handsome male? She must be punished. In bed.... more>>

This list has none of it. Both characters have their own problems, their own goals and their own free will. Even when one has to depend on another, it's because they want it, not because it was forced on them.

Comment if you have novels to recommend for this list or if you think that there are novels on this list shouldn't be here. I will check every novel before adding. <<less

This is a list of novels that have mature characters, smooth progression and a solid plot. Little to no fan service. 

(Healthy, consensual, badass or sweet :))... more>>

Sweet and fluffy BG novel where FL is proactive, good communication, & there's not much love rival for ML, mainly focusing on deepening relationship between... more>> the leads. <<less

The novels where female protagonists decides to pursue the ml, or make moves first.

Nothing says "I love you!" like "I hate you!" This is devoted to stories about enemies turning into lovers. Includes novel-length, oneshots, complete and incomplete... more>> stories. Tired of of fluffy couples that always get along? Look no further!

Another one! (ಠ⌣ಠ)

Dear, Travis Translations, I hope you put the light novel covers so everyone will be enticed! <<less

just as the list name says. Main characters that actually push the plot forward and don't stall because of annoying cliches like misunderstandings, stubborn sub-villains, romantic love interest sub plot, emotional constipation, etc.... more>>

basically, avoid the cliches! down with bad writing! away with misunderstandings and dumb sub-plots that last 20 chapters!

i'll be compiling and modifying this list as i read <<less
