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

Well written CN novels with clever and inspiring characters that I've stumbled upon and will like to share...got a little bit of everything but bs ^_^ No order in terms of quality bc they're all GREAT (nothing below 4*)... more>>

LINK to part 2 since this list is filled up- https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/60592/ <<less

These are my favorite novels with transmigration, reincarnation and second chances as main themes*. I like slice of life, slow romance stories with good world-building... more>> and MCs who are calm, intelligent, not cruel and not too OP (if at all).  
I enjoyed reading the novels in this list but they may not be what I would typically like as mentioned above. Suggestions welcome. <<less

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!

STRAIGHT ROMANCE NOVELS III - https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/45549/ <<less

There are revenge and face slapping novels as well as slice of life novels and all kinds so go through these and find your types.... more>>

Novels with strong female leads , funny female leads etc etc.

Some female leads are op[overpowered] okay but I like them too there is nothing wrong with them being op because the novels are really good to read.
Some are strong from the beginning. some of them have character growth from being weak to strong and here strong doesn't necessarily mean physical strength its also their mental strength I am talking about.

Some female leads might be a little bit rude  but those books are entertaining and well done for a one time read And also for once I can read jerk female lead instead of a jerk male lead alright.

If anyone want me to add some books to this category please comment below will add it (✿◡‿◡)(✿◡‿◡)q(≧▽≦q)q(≧▽≦q). <<less

✨Only the cream of the crop ✨ All the (mostly) historical novels which have proven to stand the test of time a.k.a survived  my endless nitpicking, fluctuating moods and multiple re-read. So yeah, pretty strong novels.... more>>

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>>

A few ancient Chinese novels whose heroines I am quite fond of. Mostly calm, smart, and reasonable women who are not overpowered. Most of these webnovels... more>> also have minimal angst. I also have untranslated suggestions in the comments. <<less

Part 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/64452/... more>>

Most of the novels I read have complete proper translations so if the red completed tag isn't there, that means there is a quality translation somewhere on the internet, it just isn't linked here in NU for REASONS. 

So just search it up because I'm too lazy to edit every novel description QAQ (maybe I will still eventually do that in the future tho). 

I will also try my best to indicate those I MTLed, but they should all be with many chapters released already (maybe some are even completed now bcs a few of these I read a long time ago), I just google translated the last 15 chapters or so. 

Hope I help some of you find good novels to read. In alphabetical order for now, will sort later~ <<less

You can follow this rec list if you want to. I might add some new novels after I read them. 

PS: I put a message about which novel I have read yet. <<less

Novels with an actually strong female lead that gets the job done and doesn't really rely on anyone else.

Good day ladies and gents, these are CN historical novels that I never regret reading in no particular order.

novels with 4.4 and above WOW I NEVER EXPECTED THIS TO BLOW UP SHI-

In our world where no third person is allowed. No one else but the two of us.... 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

✓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
