Another transmigration novel. Love this for the comedy and how ditzy yet lovable the protagonist is but I could have done without the last part.

Started as a parody, developed into your usual cultivation novel towards the end. Full of face slapping and various cliches but still delightful. The fact... more>>

A confusing read the first time. A delightful one the second time.

Lazy protagonist is my jam. Not a fan of harem but for this protagonist, I'll stomach it.

Reika sama is HILARIOUS. A pity this novel is on author hiatus. Will we ever meet again, Reika sama?

This. This must be the most badass villainess ever. If only it is not a oneshot.

Not a fan of clueless, naive female protagonist but this novel is from the male protagonist's perspective so it becomes much more interesting.

This is a hard novel to put down. Shao Xuan is undoubtedly a very overpowered protagonist with the biggest protagonist halo. But I love the many wonderful characters (and animals!) that colours the novel as I read Shao Xuan's many adventure & journeys. The fact that there is no truly evil character in this novel is also a big plus. The ending is a little questionable, with many loose ties but overall it is a delightful read. ... more>>

Another novel on this list by Miss Yue Xia Die Ying. What differentiates this novel with her other two novels I love is how real this one felt. Our FL Zhuang Laoyan is not the sole woman in the harem, and this novel is beleaguered with harem intrigues and women fighting for favour. Perhaps among all the FL in this list, Zhuang Laoyan is the most formidable mentally. A delight to read over and over.... more>>

I came across this novel a few times but Japanese novels don't appeal much to me, so it was not until I was bored out of my mind that I finally picked it up and boy, was it a fun ride. Although the theory behind his transmigration gave me brain freeze (I skipped the whole explanation), Elrise made me laugh throughout the story with her thoughts & antics and I found myself crying at her supposed death. ... more>>

This is not your usual apocalypse novel. It reads more like a game novel where the MC Yun Linh is playing a territory management game... more>>
