No yuri (gomen)

No yaoi (gomen ;~;)

There are a lot of novels I know which have obsessive male leads, but unfortunately there's no info about them here on NU, so i'll probably just list it here or on the comments:

Mommy villainess (PERSONAL FAVORITE)

The demon's bride

The crown's obsession

Young master Damien's pet

The reason why I don't want to marry the Prince <<less

There are revenge and face slapping novels as well as slice of life novels and all kinds so go through these and find your types.... more>>

Novels with strong female leads , funny female leads etc etc.

Some female leads are op[overpowered] okay but I like them too there is nothing wrong with them being op because the novels are really good to read.
Some are strong from the beginning. some of them have character growth from being weak to strong and here strong doesn't necessarily mean physical strength its also their mental strength I am talking about.

Some female leads might be a little bit rude  but those books are entertaining and well done for a one time read And also for once I can read jerk female lead instead of a jerk male lead alright.

If anyone want me to add some books to this category please comment below will add it (✿◡‿◡)(✿◡‿◡)q(≧▽≦q)q(≧▽≦q). <<less

Got betrayed, got killed, got a chance to reborn!

These are the novels I've given a try in 2021. I've also only been MTLing for like a couple of weeks so I've only completed some of them. I am of course going to include novels I've dropped and try to say the reason BUT, I have an awful memory so I don't even remember what I read last week, so some reviews might not be too accurate. Also my opinion is sh*t, don't trust me bc I get influenced by emotions, but if I rave about it it shouldn't be too bad, if I dropped it then... that's usually my fault.... more>>

I reached the list's limit so I'm not including certain unremarkable stories... I don't wanna do another list though, I guess I'll just have to stop reading this year. If push comes to shove I'll just replace the novels that I haven't read much of and didn't like.

Also yes..... this is what I read in > 4 months, I need a life and stop reading so much but this was a boring semester and reading was far more interesting than certain classes and just as useful (not useful). I hate myself omg guys don't do this! The way I don't even remember the names of these characters hftguyihio.

Female protagonists that have knowledge of a novel and are transmigrated/etc. into that novel; born into a villain's family, are the villainess themselves, the villain's daughter, repeatedly interact with the villain, etc.... more>>

The FL/MC has a fate with the villain of the novel/game. 

Basically, the MC is thrown into the world of a novel and interacts with the villain character of that novel, whether that is being the villain themselves or having a close relationship.

BTW, I only put the novels I LIKE on this list. If I don't like it, I won't add it even if the genre fits, tr*sh is tr*sh.

Let me help you. Firstly, if you want to read the novel, search for it in its native language and use the browser's page-translation feature. From my memory, it works for chinese, korean, and japanese novels. Secondly, MTL novel has most chinese novels, you'll need to adapt and get used to the brokenness and confusion that comes with the absence of an editor. Korean novels are found easily by searching '[Korean title] ch 1'. If you don't find it, shorten the korean name to broaden the search or give up. I have given up many times... (cries in 'The Princess Wishes To Die Peacefully'...)

What I'm saying above is. I have completed countless novels that NU will never release the chapters for. Don't limit yourself, you can finish every novel on my lists, because I have. <<less

NL/BL I have read/am reading that made my heart skip a beat. List order doesn't mean anything. Notes are formatted this way:... more>>

- who the male yandere is (* for series where the yandere is obvious, I will leave as "--")

- 4-1 personal yandere rating (4 - iconic & re-read, 3 - good enough to open, 2 - for when bored, 1 - don't really like but someone else might)

NOTE: I am rating yandere of the novel, not the novel's quality itself. Also, my standards for 'yandere' is pretty loose so keep in mind that it's just how I wish to label them. (If I could see the character picking the MC over the world when forced to choose, then I consider them yandere. "I would burn down the world just to keep you warm," sorta thing.)

- short desc. of how the yandere moments show up in story

Reason for change: I started adding works that didn't fit the title but I've already evaluated. The title could be misleading as is, so I changed it. <<less
