I've ranked these based on the ones I've enjoyed the most considering the plot and possessiveness of the male lead by a 2:1 ratio ~

Only straight romances 

(I have another list only for BL)

what I've written are my honest opinions and pls feel free to reccomend more or to ask any questions ~♡ <<less

Books I read using MTL. Some novels I read long time ago so It might not be a completely accurate rating. Bottom of list are books I plan to MTL, Will update and move most recent commentaries / reviews to top. Beware there might be some spoilers if you read my commentary.
Rating Readability using MTL based on my opinion : 
Highest 5 Stars = Very Easy to Read ☆☆☆☆☆
Lowest 1 Star = Very Difficult to Decipher ☆... more>>

Generally Historical novels are harder to decipher than novels in Modern setting so I tend to gravitate and read more modern day novels.  <<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>>

PS: The others novels I liked, but not enough to be featured here, are in my yearly "New Favorite Historical Romances" lists. <<less

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

Bl, bg, and no romance.  Genre’s pretty diverse.  I consider all of these top tier yummy food with good plot and fleshed out characters.  Not... more>> all of these are complete but some are good enough for me erode my brain and mlt.  Hope u all find smth u like.  (List incomplete) <<less

Favorite author of same genre. Transmigration: 余微之, 耿灿灿, 

Ps . Pls post similar novel on the comment thx.. <<less

These are the novels I've given a try in 2021. I've also only been MTLing for like a couple of weeks so I've only completed some of them. I am of course going to include novels I've dropped and try to say the reason BUT, I have an awful memory so I don't even remember what I read last week, so some reviews might not be too accurate. Also my opinion is sh*t, don't trust me bc I get influenced by emotions, but if I rave about it it shouldn't be too bad, if I dropped it then... that's usually my fault.... more>>

I reached the list's limit so I'm not including certain unremarkable stories... I don't wanna do another list though, I guess I'll just have to stop reading this year. If push comes to shove I'll just replace the novels that I haven't read much of and didn't like.

Also yes..... this is what I read in > 4 months, I need a life and stop reading so much but this was a boring semester and reading was far more interesting than certain classes and just as useful (not useful). I hate myself omg guys don't do this! The way I don't even remember the names of these characters hftguyihio.

This is 96% CN, 3% JP, 1% KR.

ALSO STAN LOONA <<less

just something to keep track of everything I've read so far. ... more>>

This is just based on my taste. Lol There might be something related to system, ancient, modern, world-hopping, transmigration, and the likes. ... more>>

This is in no particular order. I’ve been reading for years now so I cannot remember all. But if it’s in here, it’s remarkable to me.

I MTL-ed some of these. I’ll also update it once I encounter new good novels or remember some. Lo

20201201 - I’ll comment those novels I found and MTL-ed. Lol hopefully those will get translated.

Korean Romance:

I really like ✓unique (world building/game rule/setting), ✓logical development, ✓solid plot, ✓all character in the novel have a life of their own that not serve for the purpose of the plot and finally a ✓logical MC. If there are at least two of these qualities, LINNIL APPROVE!!... more>>

I like to read various genre I don't care if it's ✮shoujou, ✮shounen, ✮yaoi or ✮harem, if only there is my require qualities~

This list order by my like, it not depend on the novel quality though. >wOb <<less

A list of novels with women/girls who know what they want, how to get it, and stand up for themselves. ... more>>

Note: the novels in this list are not in any particular order! My favorites are noted with two asterisks (**)! <<less

Stories that I genuinely liked with interesting characters. These characters have ambition, smarts, or interesting perspectives. I think that every good story must have a good main character, or everything will collapse, so I've only added my absolute favorites.... more>>

The stories are in order, but they are all enjoyable. Some have romance (BL or GB) and others don't.  Some have period typical attitudes (ie, the value of women in a harem setting is not...spectacular). The majority are CN, but a few are also KN. There's...there's a lot of transmigration, admittedly. I have no defence there.

Please enjoy and let me know if my opinions are accurate! <<less

These are all CN novels that I would like to recommend. I finished reading some of them and still finding the right time to read the other novels. I find them quite interesting with the description and reviews so I decided to share it will all of you. No ranking order.... more>>

Enjoy reading! <<less

Absolute faves, wouldn't mind reading them again, for the third time.

Lady leads who don't take sh*t from no one. They qualify for this list if they are independent, practical, no-nonsense, and preferably if they enjoy pushing down shy boys. My waist hurts just reading about simpering weak FLs.... more>>

List is roughly sorted according to badassery. <<less

No description.

This is for my own reading list. I include both straight and BL reverse harem... A male harem.. Don't judge me. I love it when a group of dudes fawning over the MC XD... more>>

The endings can be a harem or 1v1. 

I haven't managed to read most of of the novels so I just add them to my list based on recommendations. Do let me know if I added wrongly. Cheers  <<less

*3-5 STAR RATINGS ONLY, MOSTLY 4 THO* *ALL GENRES*... more>>

- This list includes novels with these 2 tags, whether the MC is the one in the spotlight or whether they are in the background as long as one of these tags is present I will add them. Recommendations are welcome!
-------------------------------------------------

 KR novels: 1 - 16

CN novels: 17 - 58

-------------------------------------------------

[DESCRIPTION] –The description of the novel.

[ROMANCE] - Indicates if there is romance in the story or not. For me personally, I always base the novels that I read if it has good romance, since in some instances the romance completely ruins the story for me and sadly makes me drop the novel. In addition this helps categorizing what kind of romance genre it is, i.e yaoi, yuri, straight, shounen ai.

 [STATUS IN Country Of Origin] – Indicates the status of the novel whether it is completed or still ongoing, as well as a to compare it to the tl status.

[TL STATUS] - Indicates how far the translation team/person are. I added this in for I was sick and tired of sorting the story status to completed, finding a story that piqued my interest, then finding out it the tl chapters available aren't finished yet, really puts a frown on my face :( #stopthetranslationrickroll

To note I may be a bit late in updating the tl statuses as this list has many novels and I simply can't keep track of all of them. 

Recent update to the tl status was on: 07/9/23 <<less

i am very picky and particular about characters, the story, and translation quality so you can trust my recommendations
