Novels I've read more than once. Absolute must reads

some jp novels with interesting premises and seems to fit with my taste. 

Intelligent female leads take active part on mystery/criminal investigation. Romance may appear either as subplot/catalyst for the cases, or as main plot that moves along... more>> with the mystery solving.  <<less

Complete-almost complete-healing novel// My cup of tea T_T // just made my heart melted // crying // Escaping from the reality

I've scoured far and wide for the most memorable books that I felt were not only well written, but unique. ʕ ꈍᴥꈍʔ... more>>

These few were carefully selected from the hundreds of novels I've read and my opinions on them are quite high！

Please also note that many of these are quite short, as I'm not particularly fond of novels with 150+ chapters.

/// I feel that after 150~ chapters, stories usually tend to be dragged out with no further plot advancements, it overall lowers the quality of a novel.

+ I've started to read more MTL novels //mainly on MTLnovel// and I've submitted quite a lot of reviews (under the same username!) feel free to read the recommended novels I wrote reviews on if you do manage to find my reviews ww as I don't think MTLnovel provides a way to see all of a single user's reviews easily ╮(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)╭ <<less

These novels are worth for second time reading. Best of the best novel. ... more>>

Note : No Yuri or yaoi type. <<less

When characters have a funny way of interacting. Possibly shameless, super thick-skinned tricksters or even just innocent weirdos who naturally lack even an ounce of... more>> politeness and etiquette. <<less

Thanks to COVID-19 I now go to Zoom University even though I paid a ridiculous amount of money for college. I am not complaining though,... more>> it's better than getting infected on campus. But now I have online classes... so more time to read some novels. And if you're like me then you are probably avoiding HW right now too. So enjoy some good reads...I spend to much time on this website... <<less

NO YANDERES and no s*upid MCs. Complete only.... more>>

Het / GL / BL (in that order, mostly alphabetical). 

Also these are only stories I like, so they (usually) don't drag on too long. I HATE r*pe AND YANDERES UG so here's some fluffy goodness for the soul. 

In terms of the romance tho, this list varies widely. 

If recs or suggestions or comments on the books plz comment thx :) <<less

favorites, mostly transmigration and reincarnation. All romance :D

The best novels consist of a good plot, smooth world building and ofcourse, a cool MC!  

This list is to keep track of novels I am considering to MTL or read

Stories in which female protagonists and others are hopefully not one-dimensional i.e. just ruthless, just silly, high-IQ/low-EQ. Side characters (mostly) have lives outside of the protagonist and/or male lead. Villains aren’t downright TSTL. ... more>>

Last three newly added: #9 | Don’t Touch Porcelain, #22 | Unconscious, #14 | I Am Average and Unremarkable

No. 1 - No. 32 | Incomplete Translations

No. 33+ | Complete Translations

Not in any particular order except for whether they’re complete or not. 

A huge thank you to all the translators who translated these gems and gave me the opportunity to enjoy them <<less

Fantasy / Slice of Life novels to breeze through, mostly mindless fluff but a precious few located at the top have plot. Untranslated works included... more>> below. <<less
