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

Female Protagonists. Romance. Comedy. Dislike yandere obsessive ml. Aversion to iceblocks.

A list of top Chinese BG web novel series featuring a mixture of genres that I’ve compiled for the purpose of conveniently browsing TLs of BG [Shoujo/Josei] Novels on NU ♪( ´▽｀)  ... more>>

P.S: No guarantees that each series will have good plot or romance cuz I haven’t read through the majority of them, they are listed according to the rankings provided on the popular Chinese web novel serialization platform, JJWXC (original publisher). It’s a decent list to browse through if you are looking for the next BG novel to add to your TBR or are just interested in exploring this genre in general.

Happy Reading (￣∇￣)/ ❤️ <<less

No description.

Brain gets scrambled pretty badly if you go for MTL novels but what can I say? Some novels are just worth the pain.... more>>

Here’s a selection of novels that haven’t been fully translated yet but this of you that for the sake of knowing the plot development (and when the antagonists will get their deserved face slapping) don’t mind a bit of pain.

Only BG, mostly historical, often revenge/rebirth sub-genre.

Please make sure you still support the original translator once new chapters are released. <<less

all the novels I've paused halfway through, but not because they're bad

Im a very picky reader and these novels are one of my favs with great plot, character development, characterization with no s*upid ML or FL, accompanied with reasonable ability and way of thinking, and of course the plus points are its great cover, lol.... more>>

Mostly highly rated, >4.0 <<less

For personal reference/rereading. Mostly plot focus & serious favs, with solid writing/characterisations/overarching plot. Any pairings (mostly bl/het), but not many harem/stallion novels. Mostly CN/KR novels for dialogue. Roughly sorted, many genres, no/low spoilers.... more>>

I prefer wuxia over xianxia, tragedy over fluff, etc. Some less serious/non-plot-focused novels included/marked for their definitive traits.
Personal genre/trait favs: comedy, tragedy, historical, mystery, psychological, scifi, realistic, mature, bittersweet, wuxia, delinquents, strategies/war, empire building, betrayal, food.   <<less

Romance novels of various sub genres where I enjoyed the characters, romance, setting or all of the above enough that I read them over and over again. 

This is a huge mash up of settings and maturity level. Read all tags on the novels before you click one to make sure you are into that style of story.
