Pt 2 of my list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/70987/ <<less

Mainly strong female characters with brains, beautiful leads, power play or intrigue, good plot and world building. I do have soft spots for handsome men... more>> and handsome female leads. Sometimes with a dash of fantasy, but almost all the time historical. Not in any order. <<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!

cause life is hard enough

Decided to start keeping track of novels that were adapted to TV dramas!... more>>

Often I ended up watching the drama before reading the books, which in some cases is good, some other times is actually bad as the story is more fleshed out in the drama itself.

I’m not going to give a review of the novel and/or drama it’s been adapted to, but I’m going to give a score based on how similar is the drama to the novel (and viceversa) based on what I’ve read.
⭐️ = significant changes to the story and the characters  ⭐️⭐️ = some changes to the some events in the story and the characters but main story plot is maintained ⭐️⭐️⭐️ = both the story and the characters remain true to the novel

Unrated novels is because I either haven't read the novel or haven't watched the drama so wouldn't be able to provide an accurate analysis. <<less

Only the industrious need apply. Semi-historical dog-blood nonsense? Right this way, Mary Sue. Is there anything you won't read? DBZ enlightenment grinding to godhood. Ultimately unsatisfying. Relationship grinding is okay though. What can I tell you? Love triangles are a no-go. <<less

Shout out to MTL & GT for helping me read these novels~♡~

That certain type of (chinese) romance novel with a (often transmigrated) female lead, who's capable, talented and overall badass, and a (handsome and equally capable) doting male lead who'd do anything for her (Alternative Title: Wife-s*aves FTW). Generally, the male lead falls in love first, children between the two are optional (if there are, they are sometimes born before the story starts) and either one of them or both tend to attract several "flies"... more>>

The actual quality of the stories vary wildly, but these are the ones I consider "readable" (in no particular order really). Meaning, aside from how good the story itself is, the Female and Male Lead should have a healthy relationship; So no "he r*ped me so now I'm in love with him even though he treats me like shit" or bullsh*t like that. If something like that happens later in the story, I'll remove the entry.
("accidental r*pe", where one or both parties have consumed aphrodisiacs unknowingly/against their will or similar situations are a grey area and judged on a case to case basis) <<less

I managed to complete all the novels listed here, so to me it's not draggy and romance/plot is very interesting.

I don't know about the accuracy of these translations but the english used is natural, native english, notwithstanding any grammatical errors.... more>>

All genres. If you have a good ear for english and have further suggestions pop a note below. <<less
