you will find here mainly transmigration, villains and badass MC with some spicy scenes. I'm still arranging it all and adding reviews so I wouldn't look at the ranking for now, except for the novels in which I have already written some reviews. I hope you will find something for yourself here XO... more>>

! There may be spoilers below ! <<less

Romance that gratify my soul. They are super sweet novels that give me a dopamine rush. Novels that make you crave for that kind of love. In addition to underrated gems, I have tried to include various fluffy, BG novels of different genres. Enjoy!! :)... more>>

i don't believe in the glorification of mu*der but i do believe in the empowerment of women

Mostly "toxic" relationships and primarly that of a romantic nature.... more>>

Although the ML's are usually the one described of such acting, the FL's can be too.

Ussually the FL has the upper hand and the ML is a puppy, this also being the preference, but there can be exceptions in the list.

Also novels where the ML's burning affection is not reciprocated by the FL. This can be changed as the plot evolves, or until the end the love won't be reciprocated.

Fantastic realm/ Royalty/Modern world/Ancient times - doesn't matter as long as the FL is not treated miserably, even if there is angst, mixed emotions, bursts of anger, sad and tense moments. The ML lead definitely can not be a total scum and the FL a weak, emotional damsel. This being said, I gladly accept new suggestions that match this genre. <<less

This is the continuation of "STRAIGHT ROMANCE NOVELS I"... more>>

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. 

The novels you're gonna be seeing here is still the same, romance novels, that are straight and are either realistic, fluffy, no dog-blood drama and 109876 chapters 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.

I have reached the limit yet again folks... so I guess time for rec list no.3...? let's gooooo

STRAIGHT ROMANCE NOVELS I - https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/45472/

STRAIGHT ROMANCE NOVELS II 

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

No description.

No description.

Female protagonists that have knowledge of a novel and are transmigrated/etc. into that novel; born into a villain's family, are the villainess themselves, the villain's daughter, repeatedly interact with the villain, etc.... more>>

The FL/MC has a fate with the villain of the novel/game. 

Basically, the MC is thrown into the world of a novel and interacts with the villain character of that novel, whether that is being the villain themselves or having a close relationship.

BTW, I only put the novels I LIKE on this list. If I don't like it, I won't add it even if the genre fits, tr*sh is tr*sh.

Let me help you. Firstly, if you want to read the novel, search for it in its native language and use the browser's page-translation feature. From my memory, it works for chinese, korean, and japanese novels. Secondly, MTL novel has most chinese novels, you'll need to adapt and get used to the brokenness and confusion that comes with the absence of an editor. Korean novels are found easily by searching '[Korean title] ch 1'. If you don't find it, shorten the korean name to broaden the search or give up. I have given up many times... (cries in 'The Princess Wishes To Die Peacefully'...)

What I'm saying above is. I have completed countless novels that NU will never release the chapters for. Don't limit yourself, you can finish every novel on my lists, because I have. <<less

-some novels i read with considerable amount of translated chapters
-mostly villainess romance fantasy trope... more>>

Just some novels that seem promising that I am reading/want to read!

When Female Leads are the exception to the rule for their cold Male Leads.

Same soul gets a second chance to redo things by turning back time or by dying and reincarnating in the same body or in another body, but in the same world. Mostly royalty and fantastic worlds or that 1% of modern society.... more>>

Stories set on any era and culture of the west: classical, medieval, renaissance, industrial revolution, victorian, world war, fictional universe, etc. Please beware of mature contents. Straight romance only.... more>>

Note: This list is still underconstruction. Some may be added in, some may be taken out. For the later case, it's usually because suddenly I don't like the direction the stories are heading to. The sorting can sometimes also change, because at the front page, I want to present the underrated stories rather than the already famous stories.  <<less
