A list of top Chinese BG web novel series featuring a mixture of genres that I’ve compiled for the purpose of conveniently browsing TLs of BG [Shoujo/Josei] Novels on NU ♪( ´▽｀)  ... more>>

P.S: No guarantees that each series will have good plot or romance cuz I haven’t read through the majority of them, they are listed according to the rankings provided on the popular Chinese web novel serialization platform, JJWXC (original publisher). It’s a decent list to browse through if you are looking for the next BG novel to add to your TBR or are just interested in exploring this genre in general.

[For untranslated CN novel suggestions, please refer to the Comment Section of this list]... more>>

Romance novels that will make you reconsider the pre-established order of things, that shine by their realism, that demand that you acknowledge cannon fodders, that hinder you in condemning villains. <<less

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

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

Novels set in ancient China (or resembling it), featuring female protagonists that I like for being strong in their own ways.

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

Stories in which female protagonists and others are hopefully not one-dimensional i.e. just ruthless, just silly, high-IQ/low-EQ. Side characters (mostly) have lives outside of the protagonist and/or male lead. Villains aren’t downright TSTL. ... more>>

Last three newly added: #9 | Don’t Touch Porcelain, #22 | Unconscious, #14 | I Am Average and Unremarkable

No. 1 - No. 32 | Incomplete Translations

No. 33+ | Complete Translations

Not in any particular order except for whether they’re complete or not. 

A huge thank you to all the translators who translated these gems and gave me the opportunity to enjoy them <<less

All of the novels in this list are good in their own ways and random.... more>>

PART 1: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/39488/  <<less

These are highly popular and highly rated romantic fantasy novels that I have NOT tried yet.  I've been collecting them feverishly, needed to separate the best ones to try, and figured I'd share the goodies!... more>>

I'm heavily biased towards female protagonists (but fine with multiple viewpoints/perspectives) and male love interests.  I also usually dislike harem in general, you *probably* won't see it here.

Whenever I read one, I'll write a very short general opinion. <<less

Strictly MC or ML rebirth and no transmigration

No description.
