Good stuff I've read. No BL/GL or smut.

ranked from the most satisfying and biggest W for mc to least satisfying, or barely scratching the revenge itch.... more>>

revenge danmei novels where an mc who wasn’t treated right or even humiliated several times by ml finally vents. he either puts the ml in situations similar to the ones ml put him in or karma bites ml back in the ass. mc isn’t wronged or gets his happy ending at the end, but the actual story may be BE, may be HE, may be a bittersweet ending. 

somewhat softcore slag abuse. wronging or humiliating the mc here excludes physical or s*xual abuse, r*pe, pe*ophilia, etc. however, the novels in this list are not necessarily pure or healthy, and are mostly dark.

—i’m reading the novels i include here as i go so i may remove some that have content i actually don’t want to read there, like the no-no’s mentioned above. i will update this list as i find more novels with this description! <<less

the suffering of side characters brings me joy

Mc is a cunning man when it comes to schemes and conspiracies

Best action adventure novels with ruthless MC with little almost nothing romance

What you're about to see is the list of books that I enjoyed reading or at least have a good impression of, hell, it can even be my favorite list. The ranking of the list is also done intentionally so yeah I didn't just add them randomly(uhh, well, I did... sort of.) so the higher the ranking the better it is in my opinion.... more>>

Also, It's not all about quality but also the journey and it's my personal opinion so you don't have to comment below about how s*upid I am because I already know that. <<less

little to no romance

Stories that highlight mc and ml reconciling differing morals, values, beliefs, philosophies - fuel for delicious angst and drama... more>>

For those who want to see "sparks fly", to see mc and ml fight, become estranged, experience slow dread when they realize the other is their enemy, cry when the other isn't looking, point a gun at each other, sacrifice love for ideals, eventually accept each others' dark side... <<less

Romance novels where the leads are initially distrustful or plotting against each other.  Mix of completed and ongoing stories.  

Novels filled with either decent comedy or schemes. If you found novels similar to these titles, feel free to recommend them to me.

[The order is random]

Just some good isekai and mmorpg light novels with female leads that I personally like.
