Library.

Gradual development of chemistry between MC and ML. Not rushed, no bland characters. Sweet, fluff and interesting. NO LOVE TRIANGLES. Like really fed up of plots were FL catches attention of ML and without rhyme or reason he is attracted to FL INSTANTLY.... more>>

 Basically typical rebirth/transmigrated  type of protagonist betrayed by her lover and stepped upon by her half sisters seeking out for revenge and catching the attention of 7th or 9th cold aloof general like prince are filtered out from this list. Like the thing is 'revenge' is more in light than romance part which is rather bland. <<less

No particular order. I enjoy any genre as long as it has nice plot. BxG. Currently interested in Sci-Fi. ... more>>

There is another Sci-fi novel that isn't in NU but it's really awesome and easy to understand to mtl. The setting is futuristic - ABO/Omegaverse. It's a straight couple (kinda rare in ABO universe). The plot are great and both leads are equal + with a dash of comedy which makes the story more fun to read. Only 90 chapters. 

The name is "Female A Survival Manual" <<less

Hodge podge of novels I enjoyed over my long long reading journey. Reading taste is all over the place.

I just love love love slice of life, and nobody does it better than these Chinese Novels. These are the historical C-novels that I feel are really worth re-reading. ... more>>

No-nonsense, no bullsh*t romance. 1v1. Strictly no third party (with the exception of past relationship(s)).

Note: Romance may not necessarily be the main focus of some novels in this list. Excerpts are included below. <<less

Basically, novels that are of my taste. I think I have pretty good judgment since I’m picky with what I read. All these novels will have good translations and a solid plot. The ratings for all will be higher than 4.0. Most are romance books!!... more>>

I will add my opinion for each one (this will take some time) and will note a few of my personal favorites. Some of them I don’t completely like but they are still quality reads so I added them here. 
MC = Main Character
FL = Female Lead
ML = Male Lead

Enjoy reading~

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>>

This list will include some spicy ones... <<less

*List changed to include other genres*... more>>

If you're like me, you're tired of the jerks in real life, you don't need them in the safe space of novels too. If so, this list is for you!

As the title said, no Male leads who are abusive, aggressive, overly possessive, or rapists. The quality of the novels will vary, but you can be sure that none of the novels here will have creeps MLS. 

-Fights between ML and FM may be present, even physical ones, only because sometimes they start as enemies, but never in the context of domestic violence, r*pe, abuse, and torture. Because after that kind of thing, she is a victim, not a wife. 

-r*pe as a punishment sometimes will appear in the list, because some are in gray areas. (I will only consider it as a gray area if wasn't a plan made originally by the protagonist, so think like "the villain planned but the protagonist defended herself kind of thing). And I'll warn you in the comments so if you don't like this, you can avoid it.

 - I will update this list as I find more novels that fit here. If you find that some novels here developed in bad ways regarding the ML, please let me know in the comments, and I will update it, the novels in the list are safe ones until the last chapter I've read. But I can't always follow all of them, so I'd appreciate recommendations and advice.  <<less

If you like historical setting with a transmigration,reborn or reincarnation with a face slapping b*tch,villain become good or etc .Just read at your on risk... more>> ahahaha  <<less

at least 4.4 rating at the time of collation... more>>

Origin: No comment - haven't read it yet.   Read - ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ .   ✔️ - liked.   ✔️✔️ - super liked.   ✔️✔️✔️ - in love.

feel free to add more <<less

All the reads I enjoyed. (Only the novels I enjoyed reading are included)... more>>

Still incomplete list cos I forgot the title of some of the stuff I read. This is the result so far after going through memory lane of all the novels I read, filtering the terrible ones.

Mostly BG

And worry-not, characters are actually pretty decent with a great or at least acceptable setting and plot. <<less

should i finish this??

These are the COMPLETED translated novels with romance tag that I rated 5 for being one of the gems I can read over again and again, and hugely recommend others to try!... more>>

Be warned that some of them are NOT for the weak heart!

The number is base on my ranking on them! ^^

The ranking btw, is not just base on the romance development but the overall story and characters. Some could even be said not to be "romance" at all *cough* stockholm syndrome *cough*, however them having romance tag is not up to my decision -and so in NU they are still considered as "Completed Romance Novels". <<less
