NO PARTICULAR ORDER <<less

Sequence is CN- JP- KR- Fluffy- (Comedy)- Exceptions- To-reads. Not ranked by number. 
My descriptions varies greatly from a gist, polished review, impressions, or explains key points.        ... more>>

[Flexible Preferences] 
A. Protags are somehow mostly male but I read both!- interesting, has compelling qualities, flawed with development
B. Entertaining, Distinct, & Creative
C. Steady premise, no TERRIBLE plot hole 
D. Romance: good execution, pacing, build-up, & evokes emotion; no bullsh!t drama & brain-dead denseness
E. Vital, relevant, fleshed-out characters
F. Comedic & Fun
G. Danger, Wars, Battles, Strategy, Tactics, Trials, Fights, Thriller, Suspense
H. Lore, Culture, Kingdom, Worldbuilding 
I. Political Intrigue, Schemes, Mind Games, Manipulation, Mystery
J.  Pure tragedies rarely - it hurts!
K. No BL/GL(yet?)
L. Can be R-18 
M. Polygamous-like IF great story | even if you're averse consider my recs. ;)

[Criteria]
1. These are (mostly) 4/5 stars in story, translation and enjoyment according to my flawed evaluation that is mainly 3/10 objective, 7/10 subjective.
2. I have perused the novels or adaptation before sharing my thoughts.
3. Writing must be consistent, coherent and engaging and the ending must at least not be sh!t. Clichés to a point are fine however it needs to be purposeful & executed well. 
4. I will keep adding books that are promising, satisfying, translated.  <<less

No cliche plot , good mc character , interesting story , something unique , surprise ending, good cliffhanger , with an awsome peripeteia , and at the end we find non-linear narrative .  <<less

List of novels that focuses primarily on building the MC's faction whether it's a kingdom/sect/clan. Generally, these type of novels have less focus on cultivation... more>> (so, not much filler on cultivating and leveling up) and more on building relationships, gathering followers and training them up. <<less

- Not romance centred, can't wait to read, mostly cultivation based, apocalyptic or fantasy, involves time travel.

My own personal list. Just what I've read.

These are some of the stories which I felt have a good plot and which I am willing to reread. They are stories of many... more>> categories (Romance, BL, Gaming, Historical, Kingdom Building, Apocalyse, Survival,Rebirth,Transmigration etc.) with the only thing common being that they have a decent plot and a proper storyline which keeps the reader intrested. I will keep adding more as I find other gems. For only BL novels, you can check out my other list, which has more novels in it. I am open fo further suggetion of any great novel you might know of. <<less

Who does not like a good read about wars and giant armies.... more>>

In these novels, army and wars are part of most of the story and plot.

ONLY TOP 25 IN SEQUENCE. - WORK IN PROGRESS... more>>

Personal reads i have found worth investing your time in. I have listed these novels based on following parameters:

1) Should have hope of being completed in this lifetime (i hate leaving a novel midway)

2) Should have overarching story and ability to incite suspense or curiosity in reader

3) Good Progression and decent paced cultivation  <<less

This List will include the novels that I have enjoyed throughout the years. It includes Japanese, Chinese and Korean.... more>>

Before I start, I will give a brief description of what I think is a good novel. Due to these reasons a lot of "popular" and "famous" novels may not be included in the list.

1. No Dense Protagonist. He has to have a brain and a sense of awareness.

2. Good plot and storyline. There can be plot holes but it should not be overpowering.

3. Good character development. Important characters should not be forgotten.

4. Decent romance. It can be harem, but the female protagonists should be more than just Dolls that the MC have collected.

5. It can even be ero, as long as it clears the above mentioned criterias.

6. Most important of all, the novel has to keep me interested till the end. <<less
