THIS LIST WILL SLOWLY INCREASE WITH TIME; there are hundreds of good books that I've read and forgot to save them, now I'm going on a journey of finding them just to share it with you.... more>>

no harem, a finished man, calm and composed protag, female protagonist having the man wrapped round their fingers, beautiful people, vague and enticing lust-love, enemies to lovers, slow burn romance that'd have you wanting it to go faster, quick transmigration with no cliche dramatic plot and overused troupe, unique plots.✨

this list contains my emotions, thoughts, desires and the urge to read over and over again.  <<less

p.s. some are so good i had to Gtranslate them. Haha

P.p.s. Left a comment where you can read some. <<less

the 'laozi is screwing your mom' vibe, and other nonstandard, ancestor-cursing, delinquent, or generally a**holeish behaviour. refers to mcs, mls, fls, whatever—it can be any lead as long as they make ten thousand grass mud horses stampede across others' minds. ... more>>

note: they don't actually have to say laozi to be a grandfather in their heart. 

Although this list is mostly modern, it's mostly by chance; this list is not strictly limited by genre or pairing. Xueba or xuezha, personality matters most, everyone is fair game. Considering including willfully arrogant "benwang"s for a period-appropriate flavour. (Regretfully (for I, your father), this list is not overtly influenced by my preference for tragedy.)  <<less

BG ancient China novels with female MC that I personally rated 8/10 and above. I sorted this list by the time I read them. They all have happy endings unless stated otherwise. There are a lot more novels I liked over the years, but these are the ones listed in NU. ... more>>

I'm sad that only 17 of them are listed in NU, but I guess ancient China novels are too hard to translate...

*Edit: Added a few notable novels I rated 7/10 at the bottom of the list  <<less

Another year, another list!

These are romance novels with various kinds of varieties that I have read and have not read that I find interesting and happen to have the urge to share it to you guys just bc I find it a waste to haggle all of these treasures for myself. ... more>>

The novels you're gonna be seeing here are of course, romance novels, that are straight and are either realistic, fluffy, no dog-blood drama and 109876 chapters spent to resolve misunderstandings, no 5 men chasing after the protagonist, no male lead with 1000 concubines, makes sense to at least at the bear minimum, light-hearted, or some philosophical really deep stuff(though rarely). But mostly, it's gonna be more about fluff, light-hearted and more focused on romance.

Found out there's a limit on how much you could add on the list so... I'm gonna be making a Recommendation list no. 2!

The four arts (四藝, siyi), or the four arts of the Chinese scholar, were the four main academic and artistic accomplishments required of the aristocratic ancient Chinese scholar-gentleman. They are qin (the guqin, a stringed instrument, 琴), qi (the strategy game of Go, 棋), shu (Chinese calligraphy, 書) and hua (Chinese painting, 畫), and are also referred to by listing all four: 琴棋書畫; qínqíshūhuà.
