novels that:

- gripped my heart and emotions (aka i cried buckets or pulled all nighters just to finish it) 

- has very interesting plotlines (some can be too plot-heavy and only have little romance) 

- funny and interesting couple dynamics (they're dumb idiots in love / tried to kill each other / trusts each other to death and can i just say i love tacit understanding couples! )

*all novels included are completed translations or enduringly completed through mtl
