Disclaimer: Some of these novels are extremely cliche, loved, and hated on. Aka, you DON'T have to like all of them, or even any of them really. These are just some of the more well-know novels that, I believe, are all worth checking out (lol mainly because of the amount of reads and reviews they have ;P). And walp, that's kinda the whole point of this list >.>... more>>

This list introduces the various popular/common/cliche tropes and genres of the translated novels community. I just want to point out the fact that this list is supposed to cover a wide range of genres and audiences. It doesn't cover everything, but I think most of them are here. I enjoyed these, and I think it's a good place to start reading from. (I tried to have novels for both male/female preferences). While some of these novels may be long, that does not mean you have to finish the entire thing -_- , if you enjoy it, good, keep on reading! If you don't enjoy it, then stop, no one's forcing you to continue.

The list is in no particular order, although I did try to put them into categories ... that kinda worked, ish. Some of these novels are officially licensed, so you may have to get the rest of the chapters from other sources (Google and *cough* aggregate websites *cough*).

Though if you are searching for harem novels and cliche titles, then i am afraid that you've come to the wrong place and should probably find another list. I dislike harems, repetitive novels and just bad novels in general. I made this list to invalidate the claims that NU doesn't contain any good novels anymore. I know the vast majority of translated works caters to the harem/anti-hero loving part of the community, but i quite frankly dislike the vast majority of titles in those genres due to how bad they are. As a result, i have created this list to include novels that IMO stand out due the excellent execution in story beats, excellent translations/localization (English primarily) and just have good characters. That's all. <<less

A combine of cn novel with good plot and historical genres, can be abit long for those enjoy long story

P.s. I tried to keep completed ones at the top but they aren't listed by favorites  <<less

Most of these novels are about transmigrated and reincarnated women. They are kinda OP (some in luck, intelligence, strength, magic etc.).

These are my favorite novels with transmigration, reincarnation and second chances as main themes*. I like slice of life, slow romance stories with good world-building... more>> and MCs who are calm, intelligent, not cruel and not too OP (if at all).  
I enjoyed reading the novels in this list but they may not be what I would typically like as mentioned above. Suggestions welcome. <<less

but went downhill

Recommend Favorite Ancient China Rebirth Novel. Plot Is Good, Revenge and Faceslapped Is Satisying. It's Addicted and Attractive Novel.

Nothing too edgy or boring. Just simple, quality romance stories. The story is not the only thing that needs to be good, but the translation as well. I also look to see if series either have a lot of available chapters or are new but consistently updating. There is no specific order to this list.... more>>

Currently looking for someone with similar tastes and standards, willing to help curate this list. <<less
