[Ranked based on Number of Readers] Included Tags: Royalty/Historical/Adventure/Fantasy

New reading list for 2022, after 2 years away from NU. To see if there's anything worth reading on this site.
Just stories that caught... more>> my eye. <<less

The cream of the crop. No BL. Ranking after the first page is largely the order I remembered and added them. I think they’re all... more>> worth reading anyway so I didn’t put a huge amount of thought into rankings past the first page. I added small reviews/blurbs with my thoughts on each. <<less

I will need to find time and read these kids soon!

These novels are hands down the absolute best when it comes to quality in world-building, plot twists, character development, or melodrama.

Planning on reading

Most fo them idk yet. ... more>>

No smut, ai, yaoi, yuri.

Almost no harem.  <<less

No description.

This is to help my s*upid brain never regress further due to being addicted in reading novels with lack of common sense and questionable plot holes. And to also prevent myself from always having to lower my standard to the point of being brain dead.... more>>

Most often no romance but with male protagonist. As much as I always read everyday, only some stories really piqued my interest. So here's my list of unforgettable novels I've read here.

Just to mention, I won't add some KR dungeon tropes and CN wuxias, xuanhuans, xianxias since I find it more generic and full of plot holes (and armors).

I've been an avid NU reader since 2018? Yet this is my first time setting an account because I really want to create this list for my fellow comrades.

Ah, please do not hesitate for some recommendations I forgot to add! <<less

No genre in particular. Will update if I find anything that I like

I’ve been using this cite for a while without an account so I’ve never made a reading list but I thought people might be interested... more>> in the books I’ve curated over the years. TBH I have a pretty high literary standard but at the same time I like to indulge in tr*sh taste, so the quality of these books might be mixed but they should at least leave an impression. Be prepared for a lot of isekai. Also I'm a bit*h for completed novels, proper conclusions are great. <<less

Short list of novels that I wish to check up with daily.

Read Lord of the Mysteries and fell absolutely head over heels for it. these are some novels i think have similar elements: lovecraftian/occult horror, steampunk/victorian vibes, themes of humanity fighting against fate, etc.  A mix of read and TBR, as well as BL/GL/gen.... more>>

Recs from outside of Novelupdates:

- Mother of Learning on RoyalRoad, TBR. time loop f*ckery babeyyy. apparently there’s a good magic system and some character development. I’ve heard nothing of good things about this one!

- The Forsaken Sovereign on Webnovel, TBR. LOVECRAFTIAN THEMES AND ELDRITCH GODS I AM SO EXCITED. 

(feel free to forum message me to gush about any of these novels!) <<less

Just a humble list of my personal favorites. I'll make another list for A-tier Novels. I'll try to do a short review for each why... more>> they deserve to be in this list. <<less

A collection of Korean novels with male protagonist that I enjoyed reading, with absolutely no harem. 

fantasy/slice of life/... more>>

please comment any suggestions for stories that can honestly be any genre, but either KR or JP, with the sole tag male protagonist(personal preference, no hate) <<less

Just a bunch of novels i am reading, that are genuinely good

novels that caught my eyes but aren't complete yet, been binge reading, or novels I've stockpiled to binge 

Easier to browse on reading list for possible KR novels I would read. 

Definitely have to read this.

I'm running out of things to read, please help

Mostly great but not masterpiece, to read when bored or overwhelmed

Good novel '>'

- My personal favorites from the korean webnovel scene and some promising ones ... more>>

- In a random order

- Mostly male mc, some have romance and/or harems

- I've got another list solely for female mc's in rofan

- Will update this sporadically <<less

Good characters, good plot, good setting, and good development.... more>>

A good MC is the most crucial part.

rank doesn't matter (actually it kinda is, only for the top 10)

I'm always searching for good novels. If you have similar ones, you can suggest them in the comment! thanks~ <<less
