a good story is one that makes you feel.... more>>

regardless of anything else - characterisation, plot, setting, morals, - if this novel made my emotions overflow, if it was captivating, or if I remember the feeling that reading it gave me, I'll put it on here.

In no particular order, updated as I read.  <<less

Mixed bag. Basically transmigration and rebirth novels who have a better life (somewhat) for the second time, whether through revenge or just living a peaceful life while falling in love. ... more>>

Not only “Transmigrated into novels” type of story , but also stories who in their past life seems like they were a villain or cannon fodder who died unjustly. <<less

Tired of naive female protagonists? Close to losing it because you can't stand another clumsy MC that doesn't consider the consequences of her actions and somehow gets everything to work out either due to her OP male suitors or just dumb luck?... more>>

Well good news! 

Here is a compilation of mature female protagonists who are calm, level-headed, and rational. All hail these practical queens that can stand on their own, against all odds, with or without the male lead. 

PS: My queen ratings have nothing to do with how much I liked the novel. I rated all of these novels 4 or 5 stars and I think they're all really good. <<less

Novels I like featuring emotionally mature female protagonists who were unloved in their past life but were given a second chance... more>>

Bonus: No toxic, domineering CEO type male protagonists! (At least not the main male lead)

If you have any recommendations to add to this list please comment!!! <<less

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.
