I laughed, I cried, I just plain enjoyed these novels. These are novels I consider to be my top personal favorites.... more>>

To see "candidate" novels that didn't or haven't made this list (yet), check out this list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/25/ <<less

All stuff I've read till the end and ranked by personal preference. The ones at the front are more accurate, the ones at the end are unsorted. ... more>>

My preference: Meandering slow-burn novels like Mao Ni's stuff get extra points. Harem/romance/face-slapping power fantasies get minus points. Completed novels get bonus points, and terrible endings get points knocked off. Also plus points for character building friends/family/enemies and down points for solo yolo.

English ones not included in rankings: Worm, Pact, Mother of Learning, The Perfect Run, Twig, Lightning is the Only Way, Master this Poor Disciple Died Again Today, Unable to Cultivate I can only Raise Soul Pets

MTL-only: Rebirth of the Noble Mage Behind the Scenes <<less

Some novels for those new readers to tried out... more>>

Some novels are now licensed and are thus unavailable, therefore my recommendation would be either to buy from the source or read from another source, Aka google it. <<less

Recommended you best funny and gender bender romance novel that I completely reading.

What I think are pretty good novels to read.

This is a list of fun romps and good stories to sink your teeth into. As I read many types of stories there are many different types on here. Ignore the ranking check my descriptiors. I hope this list can help you find a story to satisfy your current reading needs.... more>>

Edit: I will add to or remove from this list as I see fit. <<less

This a list of my all-time favourite stories. Adding reviews in-progress. (May take over a long span of time.) Novels are sorted in descending worthwhileness.... more>> (Again from perspective.) <<less

Small list of the stories I've found to be compelling even if flawed due to at the very least getting the basics right if not excelling in one aspect. (world building, character growth, character development, action, humor, etc.)... more>>

Quoting a user from the discord: 
"The best stories with a super overpowered protagonist don't rely on combat to be the motivating force for plot progression. 
It's interpersonal relationships, it's a time limit on how long they have to reach a goal, it's severely limiting factor on their powers, any number of other things. 
Making a story about a super overpowered protagonist, and then making every single piece of conflict in the story based around fighting severely drags a story down."

I've omitted any stories hosted only on webnovel/Qidian.

Work in progress, in no particular order. <<less

BL Only! No particular order, but the novels on here are pretty close in greatness!

hahahaha

CONTRIBUTOR/S:

yours trully♡ <<less

Here are just some of my all time favourite novels on NU. Not all BL, I swear! Though quite a few are... ... more>>

A lot contain transmitigration, reincarnation, game elements, level up, apocalypse... so forth <<less

Stories with a close friendship/relationship between two male characters that is not romantic in nature.

Transmigration, reincarnation, summoning, time travel and whatever have you. If it managed to grasp my attention (and keep it), it goes into the list.

Historical/xianxia/transmig that I actually liked... more>>

Stuff I haven't dropped yet or have read to completion or at least plan to finish reading. The good stuff. Mostly down to earth female protagonists (or love interests) you won't feel the need to strangle. Too much. 

Lots of strong women here, whether mentally or physically or... eventually haha. Some fluff, some serious, many both.

Mostly female MC, but might add some male MC stuff if it feels like it fits the theme of the list. 

No particular order.

Recs welcome: leave comment :) Or just to agree or disagree about my views on the novels. Discussion welcome :)  <<less

Stories full of holes but somehow you gladly fall for them. A hidden gem once you pass by their weaknesses. (No particular order) 

A dumping ground for stories i've read that somehow decent. In no particular order

+ mostly action/adventure focused... more>>

+ cn/jp/kr

+ romance/no romance

+ completed/ongoing

+ both m&f protagonists

+ ~3-5/5 ratings

+ based on personal enjoyment factor

+ not ranked in any order <<less

It can be the way it was written, the twist at the end or just the overall mood of the story.... more>>

The plot can be anything, from old cultivation, reincarnation in the magic world to the mecha battle in the distant future and space. The rating doesn't have to be high.

It's just...when you read it there seems to be something that made you want to keep reading.

It's that kind of novel..? <<less

To read or not to read; that is the question. The continuation . . . 

In no particular order, BLs that take place in an apocalyptic world/setting. Quick Transmigrations have the apocalypse Arcs indicated and are placed at the end of the list.... more>>

#19+: Quick Transmigrations <<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 

(*￣▽￣)b <<less

These are novels I enjoy reading and some I always wait patiently for update

Don't expect many harems with characters who can't think for themselves or fall in love with the MC before page 1. Many might have a slow moving plot... have to invest yourself into the characters to find the tragic, beautiful and poignant!... more>>

First, some English original webnovels that are superb and easily googleable (in order of best characters, not necessarily plot): 
1. Trailer tr*sh
2. Iron Teeth
3. Castle Kingside (rewrite)
4. Metaworld Chronicles
5. The Good Student
6. Worm (Parahumans)
7. AnimeCon Harem (18+)
8. Mother of Learning
9. Selena's Reign
10. Double Blind: A modern litRPG
11. Tidal Lock (unfinished)

Note that I've been recently pruning and updating the list to remove some that were just good stories with average characters and move them over to new lists that are top of their genre. You can see all my rec lists at https://www.novelupdates.com/user/10378/tallrice/ <<less

*in my opinion... more>>

Kinda but not really in order. If you've got similar taste, rec me stuff in the comments! 

I read a pretty wide range of genres, but in general I avoid harem, bad-end/tragedies (real life is depressing enough lol), and yandere (they creep me out). You might find some of the above on this list, but they'd have to be really good.

Updates whenever I read something good (fairly often bc I read an insane amount), but I'm pretty selective about what goes onto this list specifically. Check my reading list for the others that aren't quite at the this level. <<less
