These are my favorite novels with transmigration, reincarnation and second chances as main themes*. I like slice of life, slow romance stories with good world-building... more>> and MCs who are calm, intelligent, not cruel and not too OP (if at all).  
I enjoyed reading the novels in this list but they may not be what I would typically like as mentioned above. Suggestions welcome. <<less

That certain type of (chinese) romance novel with a (often transmigrated) female lead, who's capable, talented and overall badass, and a (handsome and equally capable) doting male lead who'd do anything for her (Alternative Title: Wife-s*aves FTW). Generally, the male lead falls in love first, children between the two are optional (if there are, they are sometimes born before the story starts) and either one of them or both tend to attract several "flies"... more>>

The actual quality of the stories vary wildly, but these are the ones I consider "readable" (in no particular order really). Meaning, aside from how good the story itself is, the Female and Male Lead should have a healthy relationship; So no "he r*ped me so now I'm in love with him even though he treats me like shit" or bullsh*t like that. If something like that happens later in the story, I'll remove the entry.
("accidental r*pe", where one or both parties have consumed aphrodisiacs unknowingly/against their will or similar situations are a grey area and judged on a case to case basis) <<less

Yandere ML, Love Interest Falls In Love First, Strong Female MC. Honestly, if you want a yandere and possessive ML and can’t get triggered at... more>> the toxicity, then this list is for you. Some are also not toxic, I also left reviews so that you could pick. <<less

Tired of rude, overbearing Gary Stus who don't know how to treat a girl (or any human) right? Look no further as this list comprises... more>> of male leads who truly love their female counterparts and know how to treat them right. <<less

✨Only the cream of the crop ✨ All the (mostly) historical novels which have proven to stand the test of time a.k.a survived  my endless nitpicking, fluctuating moods and multiple re-read. So yeah, pretty strong novels.... more>>

PS: The others novels I liked, but not enough to be featured here, are in my yearly "New Favorite Historical Romances" lists. <<less

I read a lot of historical romance so I'm a bit fussy, well-written leads (who have chemistry) and a decent plot are a must!  Also, cliche tropes are fun once in a while but I prefer things that are a bit more unique.... more>>
