Long or long-ish. I feel like some of these are still quick reads, but maybe I just breezed through since I was enjoying them so much <<less

maybe you wanna find something good but its new

Stories centered around female leads that are charming and competent and able to get stuff done. Satisfying reads about smart women who find love.

Here's a list of novels you might enjoy if you, like me, want to read some good stories that don't force an unnecessary & underdeveloped romance subplot where it isn't needed.... more>>

So these stories will have minimal to no romance, and I despise the harem trope in general. On the other hand, I'm a sucker for good bromance/brotherhood/friendship/found family stories. I also won't add any series to the list that I haven't personally read.

I decided to create this list because I've seen many similar 'no romance' lists on the site from which I've gotten many great recommendations to the point they have now become my go-to sources for new novels.

- - - - - - - - - - -

I'll be trying to organize the list based on how good I personally think the books are, but I'm only really certain about the first 4 being my favorites, the list then gets quite ambiguous, but I personally really like everything on the first page.

In the descriptions, I'll include how many chapters of the series I have read as well as how much romance there has been up until where I've read, as well as additional thoughts/opinions/warnings that I might have about the series.

I'll try to update the list whenever I find another good series to add. If you know of any series you think I'd like based on my list I'm more than open to suggestions! 

UPDATED JAN 1ST: Added 'The Nebula's Civilization' to the list. <<less

My biased tastes, I would include perfect run, mother of learning, and the last orellen which are all on royal road. Also the cradle series. ... more>>

Of course im missing reverend insanity and other stuff, but trust me ive read a wicked sh*t ton of web novels including RI but these are just my personal top faves.  <<less

+ratings and vague comments

Novels I've read, but translation seemed to be on hiatus or dropped.

Just what the title reads- "Gems"... more>>

*Novels containing more than 80+ chapters are moved here as the previous list got bigger* <<less

Good translations

No description.

Boring, cliche story / dull character

Exceptional stories about people who wanders in jianghu, albeit with some extra "fantasy spices" in the plot. They are just and psychologically strong, though not always on the right side of the law. They also have high IQ, high spirit of brotherhood, and never waver in the face of obstacles.... more>>

May include BG/BL/harem, because romance are not important in this type of story.

Additional novels:

1. That Person in Jianghu - https://1stkissnovel.love/novel/that-person-in-that-river-and-lake/ - 5 stars+++ - The novel triggered both the spirit of righteousness and poignant feelings. Protagonist wanted a free life with his family and friends, but then continuously dragged around by various unwanted and unwarranted troubles. He managed to get the peaceful life in the end, but lost almost everyone else. Definitely not a happy ending, though not a complete tragedy either; the epitome of wuxia plots. <<less
