A list of novels I like so I don't forget. Not in order. I try to not make this similar to FIEND's and other people's list but there aren't that many decent ones with no romance y'know. ... more>>

Some novels : Since The Red Moon Appeared, The Damned, Supreme Grandpa, Is That A Wisp?, Spending My Retirement In A Game.

P.S. I still haven't differentiated quick transmigration and world hopping so I could be mistaken about some. Thank you for understanding. <<less

Sharing several years of my reading experience.... more>>

I was slowly creating this list for about a year. When I've got nothing else to do I was gradually expanding it and that's the result.

***

To make it more descriptive and clarify some things I've put what I consider the main focus of the story under the 'Main Tags' line.

I've also added some comments to express what I thought about most novels that I've read.
As a bonus I've thrown out here some things that people look for or try to avoid like romance and mentioned similar titles that I've read myself.

***

Tags' explanation:

Mature:
FL - foul language, G - gore, E - ero elements.

Romance:

'No Romance' - nothing worth mentioning/mc is a loner, No Romance(?) - I haven't seen any, 'Romance' - only 1 heroine, Yanderes - self-explanatory, Harem - if MC is in CONFIRMED relationships with
several love interests, not a japanese useless one.

***

'My reading progress' line is a show of my 'sincerity'. At least I know what I'm talking about cause I've read it till cXXX.

***

Rating:

10/10 - Perfection (for me).

9/10 - Not 10/10 but pretty close.

8/10 - Something good/worth reading

7/10 - Readable

6/10 - Read with caution / Only 'Readable' under specific circumstances

***

P.s I've read a lot of novels (more than 200), so I've chosen more popular titles, or at least novels that I've liked more than others. So very few novels here can be considered questionable or 'hidden gems'. <<less

if your bored read this list, it will entertain you trust... more>>

PS: Mount Tai

if you guys have anything to say, feel free to say it in the comments. This list is more inclined toward romance but it does have some books that are Action only or MC only and have no romance.

There is no order, almost all if not all books are pretty good to most people

this list does include BL but it's only like once or twice! <<less

Chinese novels with MLs that are well-received in the Chinese community, meets at least one:... more>>

1. Rank highly on novels websites like Qidian and Zongheng (mostly QI)

2. Are strongly recommended on novel recommendation websites (eg at least 1k recommendation upvotes or at least 7.8/10 or 4/5 ratings with 1k reviews)

3. Commonly recommended on forums, search engines and blog posts (eg zhihu, sohu)

Notes:

There are novels that meet the criteria but not included like Lord of the Mysteries and Perfect World. May add them in later.

I picked the novels according to what caught my eyes (mostly comedy) or have more well known donghua adaptations (eg soul land, btth) so there may be many novels not mentioned

*Well received may not always mean good or well written, they may just be wish-fulfilment, OP-MC novels that generally cater to many, therefore, highly ranked. (eg popular 'junk food' novels).

This list is used as a compilation for me to ‘try out’. I will update my reviews if I’ve read something here. While I may not have read the novels, I may have read/ watched the dongman adaptations. <<less

Novels which have been deemed to be excellent in some regard, irrespective of genres and themes. While not exhaustive in any way, this list will be periodically updated as I read more. Note that erot*c content might also be included. To better understand why I chose certain series, check out my reviews!... more>>

Note: I am biased towards reading more CN, and I have stopped reading any novel related to QI since the controversy with WW. Thus, you might find this list to be particularly biased, so take it with a pinch of salt. The order/numbering is not indicative of anything. <<less

Here is the best Xianxia Novels in my opinion. Nothing much to say. I didn't count the novels that less than a hundred chapters.

The mixture of suger & spice.

Wuxia: Martial arts, but nothing else, People practice martial arts. They are mortals and their goal is not to be immortal.
Xianxia: Wuxia + C-nese magic-based mainly on Daoism
Xuanhuan: eastern fantasy, Might have cultivation, but it's more fantasy than anything... more>>

My recommended Wuxia story [Which is QT but all the worlds are related to this genre]

[No CP] [Comprehensive Martial Arts] My life will stop  【无CP】[综武侠]吾命将休

[Comprehensive] Zhao Ru Sun and Moon_Little Fox Xili [End + Fan Wai]     [综]昭如日月_小狐昔里【完结+番外】

A favorite Korean manhua  -> Trinity Wonder

Jianghu/kangho: the most generalised answer is “The part of the world the imperial court doesn’t have direct jurisdiction over.” You are talking about brothels, gangs, bandits, slums, the underworld, rogue disciples from various sects and more. There's no order and rife with crime. It's like taobao, lol. Wulin/murim: refers to specifically and only to martial arts schools/sects/cults etc. The wulin is considered the refined, respected and virtuous people in society; they're also placed higher on the hierarchy. There's order. If jianghu is taobao, Wulin is Tmall.

I've read a bunch of webnovels, thought I'd list my favorites for others to enjoy

Romance heavy novels are in another List

List for ellen that describe my tastes in novels

You won’t regret reading these, bring you to tears or thrill your heart.

Novels that actually are decent to good. Not the usual harem where the MC forget about them, or the face-slapping, restaurant fighting, no brain characters,... more>> and the like. These ones actually have a good plot, magic system (or cultivation), character development, interesting arts/techniques, and side characters. <<less

I find it difficult to find good books, so do you I guess, and ratings are usually deceptive.... more>>

This is my list of best TL reads, hope it helps.
Novels with below 4 ratings: first impression last impression syndrome.

Some books have incomplete/ bad translations but have great stories.(i mtled)

I will keep updating the list. <<less

Any cultivation story that struck my fancy.... more>>

Not always highly rated, but enjoyable to read, have a "good" MC, have many chapters and more than enough as a snack! (*´w｀*) <<less

Fully translated novels to read. F/M. - Not Romance focused

cultivation novels

The premise is silly, but everything else isn't. OR... it's just silly serious.... more>>

The list includes novels I like that are that are uniquely amusing (crack) yet still coherent (treated seriously).  

F/M, M/M, OR no romance included. Usually not very explicit. Lots of genres, so be careful. Order doesn't really matter, but I'll try and stick inactive/unavailable novels toward the end and completed ones earlier.

Any quotes included may NOT accurately reflect the overall story... but they're funny. And the fact that the author actually included them in the novel is hilarious.

Crack? More like creativity. <<less
