Good entertaining novels, definitely worth a read.... more>>

Novels are in no particular order <<less

All of the descriptions are allegedly, I haven't read most of them. Mainly focused on completed novels. Only male protagonist. I hate anti-hero or Villain protagonist novels that have no morals so none of them will be in this list! If you have any other recommendations please comment them!... more>>

Novels from other websites:

Worm - Interesting dark fantasy superpower.

One Piece: Reborn as Enel - Hype transmigrates as a character with an amazing devil fruit in One Piece.

The Runesmith - Man with technological knowledge isekais into a fantasy world as the 4th son of a noble family. Cool sounding western written isekai

World Keeper - Isekais as the manager of a world, kingdom-building sounds cool.

Tree of Aeon - Really good kingdom city building western novel, being made into a book.

Life Hunter - Overpowered protagonist isekaied, seems interesting but the accelerated progression tag is worrying.

Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizard - Isekai into Harry Potter world, realises that other media must also exist. Wish fulfillment going into the world of various media worlds. Harem story. Could be good, or not.

Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor - Sounds interesting, non-cliche Xianxia progression novel. <<less

No BL, No Female MC... more>>

Mostly Korean with some Chinese as well.

Novel I love to read sometimes. <<less

A mix of mindless fun novels and those that paint a picture of the vicissitudes of life/humanity. (BL and non-BL)

Here's a list of novels you might enjoy if you, like me, want to read some good stories that don't force an unnecessary & underdeveloped romance subplot where it isn't needed.... more>>

So these stories will have minimal to no romance, and I despise the harem trope in general. On the other hand, I'm a sucker for good bromance/brotherhood/friendship/found family stories. I also won't add any series to the list that I haven't personally read.

I decided to create this list because I've seen many similar 'no romance' lists on the site from which I've gotten many great recommendations to the point they have now become my go-to sources for new novels.

- - - - - - - - - - -

I'll be trying to organize the list based on how good I personally think the books are, but I'm only really certain about the first 4 being my favorites, the list then gets quite ambiguous, but I personally really like everything on the first page.

In the descriptions, I'll include how many chapters of the series I have read as well as how much romance there has been up until where I've read, as well as additional thoughts/opinions/warnings that I might have about the series.

I'll try to update the list whenever I find another good series to add. If you know of any series you think I'd like based on my list I'm more than open to suggestions! 

UPDATED JAN 1ST: Added 'The Nebula's Civilization' to the list. <<less

what i've read over the years. i'll continue to add when i remember the novels i've read. its just too much lol
