Great Reads with Female MCs
Great Reads with Female MCs
Stories in which female protagonists and others are hopefully not one-dimensional i.e. just ruthless, just silly, high-IQ/low-EQ. Side characters (mostly) have lives outside of the protagonist and/or male lead. Villains aren’t downright TSTL.
Last three newly added: #9 | Don’t Touch Porcelain, #22 | Unconscious, #14 | I Am Average and Unremarkable
No. 1 - No. 32 | Incomplete Translations
No. 33+ | Complete Translations
Not in any particular order except for whether they’re complete or not.
A huge thank you to all the translators who translated these gems and gave me the opportunity to enjoy them

I told myself to not put in any dropped translations, but this is an exception. The MC is calm, stubborn and speaks with words that can draw blood. None of the villains are s*upid, (so far in the translations), but they’re crafty and very clever. The relationships aren’t also black and white, but change and develop with the plot. The plot goes on slowly, but there are lots of foreshadowing, so it’s not a drag. The characters are their own people, not with one note personalities, full of charisma.... more>>

My heart aches for Chen Rong. Just because she reincarnated doesn’t mean she can overturn her status in a society where misogyny is ingrained in both norms and the law. Chen Rong will dig her heart out for the person she loves, no questions asked, but just as easily she will dig out the hearts of anyone else she has to share the person with. She loves with everything she has, her whole being, which while really is her greatest downfall, I can’t help but admire.... more>>
