As far as I'm concerned, you can't trust in the overall novel ranking. ... more>>

I am sure there are different reasons for this development. And without a doubt one of them is a female readers' activity. What I mean is that they are much more active and generous in rating, comment section, lists. etc. If you are looking for proof you can try sorting all the novels by rating and here you will mostly see yaoi, shounen-ai, josei, shoujo, romance. Also, many other novels can't escape their influence. I mean, nobody said that they can't enjoy popular seinen novels, right? I am not saying that it's something bad or trying to stop them, but as a normal, straight guy, I can't enjoy the situation either.

So here comes my personal, manlier than even me, top of the novels I've enjoyed reading!

I can't really describe myself as a picky reader, but I have to spend quite a lot of time looking for something that satisfy my preferences. Which are mainly: 

1. No wimp/beta protagonist. (Life is hard as it is. I see no reason to read about someone's indecisiveness and useless tears.)

2. Protagonist with at least average level of intellegence. Otherwise it's too annoying to read.

3. As a litrpg genre fan i've got a soft spot for stories with different kinds of systems.

I guess that's it. <<less

No slow/beta protagonists, no boring slice of life.... more>>

Novels of different genres, Romance, Horror, Xianxia, Fantasy, BL, Supernatural... 

This is a list of things I have read which I think are great from the perspective of 'quality of craft' & 'quality of story'. In general those will be great reads for everyone as well, but will less include 'because I like this' focused listings of other 'great so long as you like this' stories.... more>>

That said, there are only so many 'objectively great' stories, so farther down the list I will put caveats (etc.) with less 'full measure' stories- either 'just good', or 'great if you like this', etc. I moved all the anri-social protags to another list.

If you know of something I should add to this list, feel free to comment a suggestion or PM.

I have written quite a few reviews for most of these and other works- feel free to check them out, and vote them up if you find them helpful. Thanks! <<less

临渊行 SS+ (Lin Yuanxing or Journey on the Brink of Abyss). Oct 21.
Mother of learning SS-. Jan 21.
Original Wizard B+. ~ Apr 21.

SSS - it was incredibly interesting for me to read, I consider it an excellent work, the shortcomings do not strike my eye.

SS - it was very interesting for me to read, I consider it a good work, some shortcomings are striking.

S - I was very interested in reading, the work may be shit, but I was interested in something and did not want to pay attention to the shortcomings.

A - it was interesting for me to read, I think the work is at least normal, there may be many flaws.

B - it was interesting for me to read, it may be shit, there are many shortcomings, but I ignore some.

C - it was a little interesting for me to read, I think the works are shit, there are a lot of shortcomings.

Estimates can be corrected and specified. The meaning can be distorted due to translation.

Although imo the most correct classification would be: what I finished reading was interesting to me at that moment, and what I never finished reading was not. <<less

List for meh gut LNs

Anything that I can pick up and read for hours without noticing the time fly by. Some of these may be tr*sh that I personally... more>> find enjoyable. Pretty much any genre, not in any specific order. Just added into this list if I liked it too much for my other list. Most of these are continuously updated, at least once a week. If it says 0 per week or no chapters I use a different website. A couple finished novels on here, personal favorite novel on here is strangers handbook. <<less

In no particular order. Props to anyone else who has read them all.

As an avid wuxia/xianxia/litrpg novel reader for the past 8+ years these are some of the best of the best out of the hundreds I've read. I personally enjoyed the journeys and some even have somewhat decent endings. All are mostly completed novels, with a few enjoyable ongoing ones, arranged from highest rated to lowest. Most are worth the read. Of course these are all my own personal preferences, everyone has their own.... more>>

Also a few highly recommended Novels outside of NU you may enjoy (see synopsis in comment section):

1. Mother of Learning

2. Shadow s*ave (S-L-A-V-E)

3. Supremacy Games

4. The Primal Hunter

Disclaimer: These novels are highly addictive and can get you lost in and immersed in their own worlds resulting in a lot of personal time/life wasted, read at your own risk. <<less

Series where the protagonist uses magic as their main weapon.
