in different genres, not in order

most are also light read/chill read, and do not have heavy angst

List of novels that I liked (not fave - I have them on Rereads). These are good reads that I might not necessarily read again, unless I no longer have good novels on my To-Read list. ... more>>

I honestly forgot about the plot. I might update update when I read them again. Clearing out my reading list so I can have them sorted for future re-reads! <<less

Because sometimes we need bitter tea.... more>>

Novels I literally shed tears for. <<less

This is my personal To Read list but i'm sharing it to help people find novels.... more>>

I usually read romance so all of these have at least romance as a subplot but usually is the main thing. 

I REALLY like angst so a few of these are angst

I'm gonna put completed ones on top of the list <<less

"So many stories are glorious, so many heroes are victorious. But this story shows the other side that is rarely explored. This story is not happy, it is not light. There is no way to survive it without shedding tears, but in a way, the ending lifts the heavy feeling a little. Therefore, it was totally worth it!"- @Liri... more>>

[One of the review on Mulberry Song]

Liri's words pretty much sums up what I'm trying to accumulate in this list.  <<less

Complete translated modern romance novels to read waiting list

If it was you, when you met him, he who can’t speak or hear a sound nor walk, would you still be like the heroine and accept him like she does?... more>>

Novels with FLs/MLs that are physically disabled and/or have psychological issues.

Please do tell of you have other recommendations.

Novels not linked to NU are also listed in the comments section, I MTL'ed tho. <<less

Life’s hard, man. In this rec, you’ll find novels with characters that move forward from their tragic past and from societal standards, characters that find a way to live for themselves despite a system, plot, entity, or life from preventing them to do so. ... more>>

This list includes strong, courageous characters that disobey the system, original plot line, and fate through the ability to think and desire to choose their own happy ending. From world hopping to transmigration novels, these characters have dignity, grit, and values - both of which they are not willing to break regardless of what a system or entity says. 

-  includes transmigration novels where the characters struggles, suffers, or is punished for disobeying the original plot line; and characters who are able to fight the charms and effects of their own system and other people’s systems

- includes characters with grit and defiance to fate: characters that have been reborn or transmigrated way too many times, characters in game and different worlds that are trying to survive and find their own happy ending, despite the plot and other characters preventing them from doing so

- includes characters who portray growth; includes characters who are able to make peace with their past and move forward and find their own happiness <<less

As you may have observed, I definitely am a sucker for 'reincarnation & transmigration tropes', some yandere in the happening, with a dash of romance in... more>> medieval setting; and with a pinch of smut & fluff.  <<less

I haven't read any of the books in this list. I put together this list to make it easier for me to check what book to read next.... more>>

Every story that I've already read will be deleted from this list and moved to either the 'okay/dropped' or 'super good' list <<less

I have not read all of these. Just a collection.

Please take note that this is the list for some of the "romance" centered novels I have completed. So, expect that some are good, some are quite meh. As for the contents, I forgot already huhu but, just take your time and read the description if you see fit. The list is in no particular order. Mwaps!... more>>

I'll add more if I remember one lol ;)

Ps. Pls recommend me novels that you like if you see this. Preferably in action, historical, never-ending cultivation ;P, romance, or even just a romantic subplot category is okay. NO harem in any kind hehe. Thank u! <<less

log of everything i've read... more>>

She said we are good friends, so I resisted the desire to hold her hand. But when she raised her head and looked at me with bright round eyes, I felt that my heart was no longer beating.... more>>

Childhood friends to lovers is definitely the sweetest trope. And I'm also curious. How does it feel to grow up and see a handsome face almost everyday?

Please follow the list if you like the novels listed and do tell if you have recommendations.

I like how they take the risk, follow their heart and confess. How the relationship change from friends-ambiguous relationship-lovers.
