These are highly popular and highly rated romantic fantasy novels that I have NOT tried yet.  I've been collecting them feverishly, needed to separate the best ones to try, and figured I'd share the goodies!... more>>

I'm heavily biased towards female protagonists (but fine with multiple viewpoints/perspectives) and male love interests.  I also usually dislike harem in general, you *probably* won't see it here.

Whenever I read one, I'll write a very short general opinion. <<less

After reading on NovelUpdates for 7+ years, this is my ongoing list of novels that were actually worth my time. I will mark which novels are for casual reading or not worth re-reading.... more>>

- No specific genre or plot types. 

- Mix of het, BL, and novels with no romance for the protagonist.

- Some healthy and some not-so-healthy relationships, but this is fiction!

- Some are more plot-heavy with lots of feelings, while others are for casual reading or a break from tragedy. 

- Novels by MXTX and any novels with official English localization not included on the list. <<less

Romance that started in school. Couples that met and grew through school.

Want to share and recommend some chinese novels i like, also hope to find more interesting novels from other people :)

So, if you came here without seeing them first, Go See that 1st!}Here I'll try to add all the novels that I liked the most and were beautiful which couldn't fit on the previous lists. You won't regret reading them cause they're really nice.  This list will include Korean, Chinese, Japanese and other novels. Enjoy reading! ヾ(≧▽≦*)o   <<less

No bs toxic love stories (unless it's literally too addictive but those will be noted) with illogical leads, inconsistent storylines, abusive MC's for no reason, no dumb leads, nothing overly cringy, no excessive dogblood or drama, nothing overly boring as well, no misogyny if I can help it etc. These are bg/bl books where the leads HAVE TO TREAT EACH OTHER WELL. Or at least change in that direction. That is the base line. Cliches and Opness are accepted here as long as they are enjoyable to read and are well executed. ... more>>

I have a tendency to like more mature love where the characters both have a LIFE and may like each other on the side-- most will be like that. A few will be sweet, very charming romances that make you feel respected / happy.
