The fluffy romance that gives you butterflies! Easy to digest, simple, and short. But not plotless. Some are deep, some are a bit complicated (but... more>> not in a soap opera kind of way, more like crime cases, psychological and gore, but still high on romance). Modern troupe. Can be transmigrated, rebirth, or just normal. <<less

Novels with female leads who are well written or have a solid plot.

I also like transmigration and reincarnation novels but because there are tons of novels with similar plots and I don't remember where I left off so I won't add those to my fav list.UwU <<less

Villainesses, transmigration, etc.

This is a mix of genres that I've read and absolutely loved.

No description.

Not your typical FL/plot (mostly tragic undertone)... more>>

Order of novels matters (for the first 15 smth, then I won't bother sorting them anymore) PS: Order greatly influenced by the time I read them, how well I remember them and by the uniqueness of the FL.

The tags are for all novels, but not all novels have all tags. The tags represent the things that I look for in novels. It's hard to find all of them in a single novel, if you find 5 in one it's really good, but to find it in 10 it's sadly only a dream.  So if you love one of this novels, you'll probably love the other too even if it's different. Each novel has at least 4 of those tags and other thrilling ones (manipulative FL, aloof FL, genius protagonist, charming FL, sharp-tongued FL, stubborn protagonist, mu*der and crimes, tough past plays an important role, reincarnation, revenge, second chance, mature feeling, mature FL, calm FL, doting love interest, power couple, devoted love interest, seduction)

The similarity between all: 

- not a fragile, submissive, prude and weak-willed FL

- not an a**hole, abusive ML

- not a dumb and repetitive vocabulary and sentences, such as: "obedient", "good girl", "nooo" (saying it just to have smth to say), a lot of s*upid unnecessary exaggerations of curses from antagonists etc

- honest, unconditional love

- good plot/ really good plot/ super unique

- from good to really good translations <<less
