This is the stories that I like, you can read it if you want but I warn you, they are wholesome but some of them are tragedies that's why even if you are fulfilled and the ending is so good you will be frustrated because there are no more chapters...... more>>

Anyway don't mind the descriptions down there ↓. I'm a role player in Rpg games and gaming community that it even affect me in real life....

Oh there's no harem here, I'm not really fond of that genre.

I still have so many to recommend but still finding them.

I find television to be very educational. Every time someone turns it on, I go into the other room and read a book.

Les romans que je considère comme les meilleurs parmi tous ceux que je lis, il y en aura de tous les genres (presque) je n’ai... more>> pas mis d’ordre en particulier et j’ajouterai le reste quand j’aurai le temps <<less

Novels I enjoyed/am planning to read in the future. A lot are in the kingdom building, some otome game, some reincarnation. Novels are generally ranked... more>> by page from favorite to least favorite. <<less

If you want good novels, then you've come to the right place.... more>>

Though if you are searching for harem novels and cliche titles, then i am afraid that you've come to the wrong place and should probably find another list. I dislike harems, repetitive novels and just bad novels in general. I made this list to invalidate the claims that NU doesn't contain any good novels anymore. I know the vast majority of translated works caters to the harem/anti-hero loving part of the community, but i quite frankly dislike the vast majority of titles in those genres due to how bad they are. As a result, i have created this list to include novels that IMO stand out due the excellent execution in story beats, excellent translations/localization (English primarily) and just have good characters. That's all. <<less

Everyone has their own preferences and picks.
These are novels that I read. Though some of them I have already dropped.... more>>

In order of how great they are in my view. 

Status: 

Read - I have read it to completion

Up to latest chapters - always up to date with the latest chapters

Waiting for chapters - update frequency is slow, tend to stack up chapters to read

Unplanned Dropped - Dropped the novel with no future plan for it. May or may not continue reading

Temporarily Dropped - Dropped due to inconveniences, fully planned on reading again

[Order is relative to this list and not the subsequent lists]

Second List: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/6452/ <<less

A list of stories with female protagonist doing their own things. JP novels only.
I always update it as I read something new. If you have recommendation just say it.... more>>

Update: Deleted shoujo novels is heavily focused on romance <<less

List of novels that i found with no romance and has a female as the main character.... more>>

Anything that has the tag where a romance can happen is not included in list despite not having the romance genre in the genre list, e.g: josei, handsome male lead, late romance, slow romance, anything with love interest, engagement, marriage, r-18, s*xual relationship, romance sub-plot, yaoi/yuri sub-lot, etc. 

This is for the people who are tired of seeing a female protagonist become a s*upid damsel because of romance.

If you don't mind Fanfic or Gender-bent(male to female) types, I'll also be adding them.

I'll be adding more if I found some in the future and I'll be removing some if the author/s add romance in their work.

This type of novels are really hard to find so anyone who knows a one or two can drop it in the comment.

I'll also be adding what i found in other websites like webnovel or scribblehub in the comment section. <<less

I've read a lot of novels from this sites. As more and more novel entered my mind, the old ones will eventually be forgotten. But, theres always some special ones that left lasting impression in my mind. Whether its because of Its strong plot, enjoyable character interaction, emotional attachment towards the character, intriguing world building or simply because its theme is my delicacy. ... more>>

Note: My delicacy is God/Immortal protagonist (not shounen-kind-of god protagonist). Watching the fleeting life of mortals from their perspective always makes me feel melancholy that somehow addicting. Their life reminded me death is also a kind of blessing for us, being the only one left behind is miserable feeling. And that made me cherish every moment in my life, regardless in joy or sorrow. So, if you happen to know novel with said premise but not included in this list, hope you can leave a comment and let me know, thanks! 

No particular order.  <<less

if there is a good novel, the MC is Female, Just comment, who knows, it will be added later.

I made a list that includes what I considered the best of the best but I slowly built up a sizable list of novels that I wouldn't consider "great" but were a pleasant/tolerable read regardless.
