I can't say that i am a professional reader but I can assure you the quality of all the novel in these list. I hope you guys enjoy it ^^ <<less

Disclaimer: Some of these novels are extremely cliche, loved, and hated on. Aka, you DON'T have to like all of them, or even any of them really. These are just some of the more well-know novels that, I believe, are all worth checking out (lol mainly because of the amount of reads and reviews they have ;P). And walp, that's kinda the whole point of this list >.>... more>>

This list introduces the various popular/common/cliche tropes and genres of the translated novels community. I just want to point out the fact that this list is supposed to cover a wide range of genres and audiences. It doesn't cover everything, but I think most of them are here. I enjoyed these, and I think it's a good place to start reading from. (I tried to have novels for both male/female preferences). While some of these novels may be long, that does not mean you have to finish the entire thing -_- , if you enjoy it, good, keep on reading! If you don't enjoy it, then stop, no one's forcing you to continue.

The list is in no particular order, although I did try to put them into categories ... that kinda worked, ish. Some of these novels are officially licensed, so you may have to get the rest of the chapters from other sources (Google and *cough* aggregate websites *cough*).

Pls don't hate Orz. When I was first introduced to translated novels, everything seemed pretty good to me T^T.  <<less

You want a main character that summons a lot? Well this list is for you!... more>>

Note: NO BL, NO SHOUJO. There is generally romance, could be 1 to 1, could also be harem. No particular order. <<less

List of favourites based mainly on:... more>>

isekai in any form (reincarnation etc.),  game elements, overpowered protagonist, country building and management, army building, modern knowledge in fantasy world and technological gap, crafting .

MC is pretty much always in control, always has a plan and always ends up on top. Or just has plot armor.

I don't exclude harems (even bad ones), if novel is good by itself. 

No yaoi. No pure wuxia or xianxia.

I don't include novels that are too short (less than 20-100 chapters depending on chapter length).

Some of novels may not be available on NU or be incomplete, but they are somewhere in web.

Novels are mainly Korean or Japanese. There are some Chinese novels included but they are either heavily west-influenced or not cultivation oriented. Basically, they are not Chinese-heavy if You know what I mean. The World Online is the only exception, as I simply skipped most of boring chapters.

Novels are kind of sorted best to "worst", though last novels on list my be unsorted at all. <<less

Novels you will binge, throw your money away, and put a countdown timer just for the next chapter.

These novels I am currently reading and or waiting for updates. They, to me, are worth waiting for because they got me hooked. I will admit some are my preferences and i wont say everyone will like it. But i like them. Even if some may try to extend with fillers and repetition, but if the readers like it (me in particular) then I say good for them and a job well done. Well, here it is. From most favorite and currently updated on top.* ** ***... more>>

*Please note, the bottom doesnt mean least liked, it might mean slowest to get updates.

**Also doesnt include Pokemon: A mystical Journey

***Kinda use this too much but also note a couple novels have bad grammar or structure, I just fill in the missing or jumbled parts in my head. So I wouldn't read those if you dont like that. They are Village girl becomes family head(picking up a general to plow the fields), pokemon a mystical journey, and generals little peasant wife. Side note strange life of a cat isnt updating anymore but is a really good novel while tales of demons and gods I recommend the manhua but novel is longer. And I just want to finish I'm really a superstar but it repeats a lot of things so dont get your hopes up for that one. <<less

list of novel what make me still loving Light Novel 

Novels I've read throughout the years and actually enjoyed.
