I'm a very picky reader who often skimmed through many chapters and sometimes wouldn't even read til the end, unless imo the novel is really, really that good. And this is my list of the best BxG romance with female protagonist and more than 4 ⭐ ratings.... more>>

Do please take note though, most of these novels are still being translated into English so I usually finished 'em by MTL. <<less

Gems and treasures found in Novelupdates!! Stories that you'll never be forgotten. Like a sculpture, carve by the authors amazing minds.

Mixed bag. Basically transmigration and rebirth novels who have a better life (somewhat) for the second time, whether through revenge or just living a peaceful life while falling in love. ... more>>

Not only “Transmigrated into novels” type of story , but also stories who in their past life seems like they were a villain or cannon fodder who died unjustly. <<less

I want them as my husband. PERIODT

These are all the Romances that come highly recommended and have been on my radar. Ended up being quite an eclectic mix though. Enjoy!... more>>

Note: Obviously this list will frequently change. The novels are later either moved to my "New Favorite Historical Romance of 2022" list or my "Put on ice" list.

Latest moves:

      - New Favorite HR: Who cares?; The Imperial guard’s revenge; Royal Road; Villainess won’t let the main lead break up

      - Novels Put on ice:  <<less

IN THE PROCESS OF FIXING THIS READING LIST! C= C= C= C= C=┌(;・ω・)┘... more>>

this list has the novels for those who want:

- romance novels (comedic undertone, light reading, lots and lots of FLUFF) 

- no romance novels (where romance doesn't bu*t into an amazing plot and makes you want to dry heave)

- misunderstanding novels (specifically ones that evoke laughter or amus**ent)

warning: all of these novels have (or will have) my opinion and terrible descriptions !! 

i hope you have fun reading 

(*￣▽￣)b <<less

This reading list contains completely translated novels and easily MTL novels that aren't completely translated but already completed in the raws. Enjoy~~

These are romance novels with various kinds of varieties that I have read and have not read that I find interesting and happen to have the urge to share it to you guys just bc I find it a waste to haggle all of these treasures for myself. ... more>>

The novels you're gonna be seeing here are of course, romance novels, that are straight and are either realistic, fluffy, no dog-blood drama and 109876 chapters spent to resolve misunderstandings, no 5 men chasing after the protagonist, no male lead with 1000 concubines, makes sense to at least at the bear minimum, light-hearted, or some philosophical really deep stuff(though rarely). But mostly, it's gonna be more about fluff, light-hearted and more focused on romance.

Found out there's a limit on how much you could add on the list so... I'm gonna be making a Recommendation list no. 2!

My Favorite Chinese Historical  Novels >.< This list consists of both BL and Straight novels with a rating above 4.0~... more>>

Note: Recently, some of the translation teams have taken their works down (dead links on the content section)  from NU (because NU has grown a lot) however most of them if not all have their own sites and the novels are still available there! So if you search the novels online you can still find them! ;)

P.S. There is also a part 2 with more novels and hidden gems for everyone to read! If interested the second list can be found on my account :)  <<less

✓List is full please check out list 2 here:https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/25580/... more>>

1. Fluffy Novels with rougly <100 to 200 chapters (no. of raw chapters)

Mostly CN, HE and BG --- no, 1 - 37 are completed

2. Each story has its own characteristics. There are modern day, ancient, transmigration, showbiz, business, rebirth, second chances, cultivation etc.

3. The best part of these novels is that, as they are so short, they have no drags, elaborate schemes, unnecessary plot twists, repeated scenes, lengthy dialogues, too much angst, etc.

4. You can easily MTL it on (MTLNOVEL. .com)  

5. The relationships are respectable with no r*pe, S&M type relationships, gory or other disturbing elements presents 

6. The most attractive elements of these novels is LOVE:  sweet & sour, fluffy romantic love (or) heartwarming 'aww' relationships between family. Some even can be defined as couple goals. Hot, passionate, fiery ,obsessive love that stabilises over time from its initial madness (or) sweet, mature, slow but steady love that's nutured with care, understanding and proper communication.

Do comment below if you've any suitable additions for the list as I am still expanding as I explore more. <<less

Female leads of all kinds, all badass in their own ways (ongoing novels first, completed novels at the end)

This list resumes the chinese novels I have liked so far. Many may not be here for two reasons: a. I haven't read it; b. I really haven't liked it. ... more>>

Be aware, if the novel isn't tr*sh, it takes a lot for me not to like a Chinese Historical Novel. Btw, you might find one or two unusual participants in this list but it is probably because I have enjoyed the novels or many elements in it.

I accept recommendations, so please leave some comments!! I will keep updating every week! <<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

Light novels or web novels with lots of fluff, sweet dialogues, cute moments and comedy. 

[binge over, now filling comment recs zzz] SPOILERS + assume i used mtl sites unless stated... more>>

fell into cn mtl hell. oops. also a list can only fit up to 99 novels so

Notes:
>  mainly fem protag villainess, modern or ancient settings
>  mostly complete stories
> chapters averaging 100+ only, no patience for bingeing 1000+ chapters
> will probably move comment recs into list ones, just, idk if i'll know it got an entry ngl
> contains dropped reads
> ratings mean... some things, but GtRaSML will always be last because of how long the read more is <<less
