Sometimes I wonder... If a fledging reader comes up to me and asks what stories I recommend them to read, how would I corrupt them *cough* introduce them into the delightful world of webnovel reading... This is my list. ... more>>

Each story listed here are unique gems, with a different sparkle that caught my eye. It could be for its mighty fine plot, awesome character development, laughter/fear/tears inducing ability, inspiring messages, or quirky story telling method... All in all, each book is a darn good read.
