pt. 2 No BS, good romantic story/characters
pt. 2 No BS, good romantic story/characters
By "good romantic story", at minimum: no bs that isn't justified or explained, or is overly done; romance is not offensive, neither lead being an as*hole to each other; romance that isn't overly dry or has too much drama; leads may be either slightly stereotypes or codependent but at least it's cute and they are not 2d but the sides may be a little; chemistry is good and story plot is mediocre or vice versa
At best: independent badass leads where the romance is a build up of them doing their own thing and getting to know each other; solid world building; 3d characters all around; fluff that makes you happy and not bored to read; there is actually good plot; there is life beyond romance but the romance makes it nice to read too
Pt 1 is here: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/16574/
Pt 3 (slowly updating):
https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/66164/
In no particular order.
Includes: bg/bl romances, enjoyable opness, supernatural, entertainment, fantasy, good fluff, s*x, smut, adventure and/or mystery, etc
Low-key this list is just me forgetting all these books' plots. Lawl

Still reading. I cautiously recommend this as I would cautiously recommend any of the new gen korean novels. Who knows when they'll have to stop translating it? So far, I find this a cute family story. The only thing is ... Unless I'm wrong... The translation is breaking each chapter into 8 parts. Lmao. When will it even end. ... more>>

Good romance or not I find her so hilariously op. Warning this is a real villain school aka there is one r*pe warning imo (idk I did mtl so maybe I'm wrong bc it's a bit vague). It's not against the mc, but the mc does help the girl take revenge in a splendid way, if it helps. Regardless she is lucky and it's pretty cute in a real villainous way.... more>>

Oh man. I really liked this but I can't remember lol. I completed this but I think it is one of the rare ones I'm actually willing to reread. Why didn't I give this a rating *thinking face*?

I think it's worth waiting for the trans bc the 1/3 of end part of the book is more telling than showing, so it can get draggy, but all in all a cute fluffy entertainment book with no one overly offensive. The romance is cute enough, but the ml does get a little whipped at the end but I'll forgive it. I think with fluffy romances like this the ending is usually the weakest part. I liked the MC's personality too, straightforward and "Buddhist" as in honest and genuine I guess. Entertaining for what it is.... more>>
