* There might be some s*xual tensions towards side characters but mostly it views the improvement of the main characters
* Novels like this just focus on the plot and battle towards mc's main goal and shenanigans but most of the novels here are my male protagonist 'to be read' and I hope you guys find something that suits your tastes <3 so yeah happy reading ^^)/ <<less

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>>

There are some female MCs on here as well. Mind the notes to avoid them.

You can also check the comment section where I will post Chinese novels that do not have a translation yet, and thus cannot be added to this list yet.

i noticed that a lot of readers dislike harem so i compiled the novels i read without it. genres are mixed so there's a lot... more>> you can choose <<less

A few hidden gems ... others not so much but all of them totally worth the read. List spans quite a few genre such as Fantasy, sci-fi, cultivation, management, mystery.... more>>

Not all novels in the list will have top ratings. In my opinion the best novels are rated around 3.2 - 4.5. Anything over is mostly BL or FL with some exceptions. Anything below is mostly tr*sh with minor exceptions of novels for people with very specific taste. 

PS: All my recommendations are based on MTL. I rarely read human translated versions ..  <<less

As a biology college student, I really like reading science related novels. That includes anything that is centered around biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics (I never thought I'd say that) and medicine. All of these novels take place in a somewhat realistic setting of Earth.... more>>

These novels will be ranked from the ones I liked the most to the ones I liked the least. This is my personal opinion, you might think otherwise. If I ever put a novel I haven't read, I will rank I according to its number of stars and specify it. <<less

Contains both FL and ML. Few of them contains BL which I do not enjoy reading but tolerate because all the other aspect apart from... more>> it are good. <<less

These novels don't have too much excitement, but they are fun in their own ways. ... more>>

Note: a lot will have some fantasy elements (being reborn, getting second chances or having systems). 

Note 2: the list is in no particular order.

Note 3: I only add novels that I personally read and enjoyed. If there are sugestions for more novels, do remind me in the comment section. Each novel has to have at least enough chapters to be able to enjoy reading it for one evening. <<less

ONLY TOP 25 IN SEQUENCE. - WORK IN PROGRESS... more>>

Personal reads i have found worth investing your time in. I have listed these novels based on following parameters:

1) Should have hope of being completed in this lifetime (i hate leaving a novel midway)

2) Should have overarching story and ability to incite suspense or curiosity in reader

3) Good Progression and decent paced cultivation  <<less

NOTE: Some of novel in the list below has bad review. But to me those novel not really that bad just like the review stated. My advice to u, dont read the review but judge the novel itself after reading either the novel good or bad. But if u want to read the review just go on, it ur right. No forcement here, just suggestion.

BTW happy reading. <<less

Chinese novel I’ve read and liked

These are the novels and works that satisfied my super picky tastes. Genres would range from action to thriller, etc. 

Some novels I am reading, most are BL or adventure novels.

These are mix of good and bad reads. There are many novels that I read but will not add here because those are unworthy. ... more>>

Most novels here are my preference.

Any genre.

No ranking  <<less

These are my personal takes at novels and my personal favorites. It's important to note that my experience with Chinese novels has lead me to... more>> filter through them so there will be very few CN here. If you think you have any recommendations that can defeat my expectations then please feel free to send them my way. My preferences in terms of novels are basically seen through the tags. P.S. I quit ranking them after #18. Additionally, as I started to add more to this list I thought it was worth noting that almost every story on this list is one that AT MINIMUM you would probably like the introduction. Bad introductions almost always make me not want to read a story and the ones that do have bad introductions probably indicate that I've read far enough to justify putting them here.  <<less

Novels that I have finish reading. 

Or to rephrase: "Novels worth reading"... more>>

All of the novels have lots of translated chapters so that you don't have to worry about them ending after a day of reading

Novels are ranked roughly according to my enjoyment of the novel. Take the ranking with a grain of salt though as you would have a different opinion. <<less

All have 1-40 chapters

How I spent my time in the last 4 years.

No description.

Well it Will be a compilation of a couple thing mostly cultivation with romantic subplot or romance ... more>>

Well i added some novels with system and some with s*x cause some MC are more ass*xual than an assexual 

The order doesnt really matter.
