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

50+ High Quality Novels.... more>>

read untranslated novels using ChatGPT, superior to Mtl. <<less

Caution: bear the risk of having your taste being too sky-high standard.

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.

- No Ranking. <<less

Sharing several years of my reading experience.... more>>

I was slowly creating this list for about a year. When I've got nothing else to do I was gradually expanding it and that's the result.

***

To make it more descriptive and clarify some things I've put what I consider the main focus of the story under the 'Main Tags' line.

I've also added some comments to express what I thought about most novels that I've read.
As a bonus I've thrown out here some things that people look for or try to avoid like romance and mentioned similar titles that I've read myself.

***

Tags' explanation:

Mature:
FL - foul language, G - gore, E - ero elements.

Romance:

'No Romance' - nothing worth mentioning/mc is a loner, No Romance(?) - I haven't seen any, 'Romance' - only 1 heroine, Yanderes - self-explanatory, Harem - if MC is in CONFIRMED relationships with
several love interests, not a japanese useless one.

***

'My reading progress' line is a show of my 'sincerity'. At least I know what I'm talking about cause I've read it till cXXX.

***

Rating:

10/10 - Perfection (for me).

9/10 - Not 10/10 but pretty close.

8/10 - Something good/worth reading

7/10 - Readable

6/10 - Read with caution / Only 'Readable' under specific circumstances

***

P.s I've read a lot of novels (more than 200), so I've chosen more popular titles, or at least novels that I've liked more than others. So very few novels here can be considered questionable or 'hidden gems'. <<less

Chinese novels with MLs that are well-received in the Chinese community, meets at least one:... more>>

1. Rank highly on novels websites like Qidian and Zongheng (mostly QI)

2. Are strongly recommended on novel recommendation websites (eg at least 1k recommendation upvotes or at least 7.8/10 or 4/5 ratings with 1k reviews)

3. Commonly recommended on forums, search engines and blog posts (eg zhihu, sohu)

Notes:

There are novels that meet the criteria but not included like Lord of the Mysteries and Perfect World. May add them in later.

I picked the novels according to what caught my eyes (mostly comedy) or have more well known donghua adaptations (eg soul land, btth) so there may be many novels not mentioned

*Well received may not always mean good or well written, they may just be wish-fulfilment, OP-MC novels that generally cater to many, therefore, highly ranked. (eg popular 'junk food' novels).

This list is used as a compilation for me to ‘try out’. I will update my reviews if I’ve read something here. While I may not have read the novels, I may have read/ watched the dongman adaptations. <<less

IN THE PROCESS OF FIXING THIS READING LIST! C= C= C= C= C=┌(;・ω・)┘... more>>

this list has the novels for those who want:

- romance novels (comedic undertone, light reading, lots and lots of FLUFF) 

- no romance novels (where romance doesn't bu*t into an amazing plot and makes you want to dry heave)

- misunderstanding novels (specifically ones that evoke laughter or amus**ent)

warning: all of these novels have (or will have) my opinion and terrible descriptions !! 

i hope you have fun reading

A. Story Quality

B. Translation Quality

C. Entertainment Value

Note: Series on the list are from CN, JP and KR. Also, novels have Male Protagonist, which will either have a. heteros*xual romantic interest, or b. undeclared/undecided. Strictly no Yaoi pairings. <<less

Xianxia and Qi Cultivation are the hallmarks of the Chinese Novels, but the Chinese Web Novel scene has so much more to offer than Qi Cultivation alone.... more>>

Here is a list of the best Chinese Web Novels that don't use traditional Qi Cultivation.

Primarily Career/Shop/Kingdom Development, but there also could be some novels that I like. Most of these novels do not have romance or harem tag as I am not a big fan of these in novels that aren't primarily written as romance.... more>>

It's about the time when an ordinary girl addicted to a romantic novel on a wattpad becomes in love with a translated novel. It's been 6 years after all. How amazing there are so many different genres, different types of MCs, not all about love and not all about good people or heroes.... more>>

Starting with reading all the translated novels that I can be found on wattpad, looking for special sites that translate novels into Indonesian. 

Found "NU" and used Google Translate. It feels like hamster that's never satisfied with putting food on it's cheeks, starts reading MTL and even looking for RAW. <<less

A list of decent to amazing novels I've wasted evenings on. They may not be literary masterworks, but then again no one actually reads Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. Sometimes we just want the literary equivalent of potato chips, not three-star Michelin dishes.... more>>

The novels ARE ordered according to best to 'worst', but all of them are worthy to read in my opinion (and have more than 2 chapters published).

Reviews are structured as follows:

BAD ONE-LINE SUMMARY

TRANSLATION STATUS

The best webnovel in the world will still be poorly received if the translation is bad, non-existent, or locked under $$$. I wished that things were different and that I didn't have to include this criterion, but that's how it is.

STORY DEPTH

In flat one-dimensional novels, it is as if the setting is taking place in a void. Characters, places, and creatures spontaneously appear and disappear out of thin air, and you never quite know what's going on or where it's going on. When reading such a novel, a dragon could literally descend on the capital in chapter 33 out of nowhere to eat the entire royal dynasty and you wouldn't even blink.

CHARACTER DEPTH

Characters with flat personalities are not lifeless, they are literal sock puppets that occasionally do stuff and utter dialogue. You have no idea what such characters do on their free days, nor could you envision how they would interact with you if the two of you were to sit at a café.

WRITING STYLE <<less

Chinese Novels about reincarnation, got a second chance, transmigrated, woke up in another body.... more>>

With e-sports being such a popular genre, I thought I should create a rec list for it. This list includes online gaming, video games, and game streaming. ... more>>

What makes this list different from other e-sports rec list? Nothing! BAHAHA 

So why am I making this list? Because I felt like it! 

- hope you enjoy!

- I’ve tried to include all forms of love. But this list contains more BL since it seems like many of the gaming novels are BL; sorry if this doesn’t suit your taste <<less
