My Favourite Reads so far
My Favourite Reads so far
This list contains titles I am reading or have read so far. I will mostly list those I like and omit the ones I dropped or outright dislike and put them in another list. I probably missed a few because I read a massive lot and can't remember every title ^^
The novels I have read on this site started mostly in the Wuxia/ Xianxia Genre but with time I came to read more and more KR and JP stuff too. As a result, the contents will revolve around the usual genre tropes so I won't bother with a long list of tags. I don't have a lot of expectations for most titles I casually pick up.
What I consider when actually calling a novel "bad" is mostly bad writing ability (author) or translation quality. Otherwise there are some things like excessive NTR, those mostly have horrendous writing/ storytelling anyway. There are also things I just subjectively find boring of course.
I hope the list contains stuff that you may come to like just as I did :)

This has been my favourite novel on this site for a long time and I have reread it multiple times so far. Sadly the very well made TL by Chamber on Kobatochan's website had to be taken down because the KR publisher didn't tolerate it.... more>>
60 Chapters Every 487.5 Day(s) 22366 Readers 416 Reviews 02-18-2023
Currently listing 400 reviews and a rating of 3.9/5 stars, this is my favourite among the Xianxia/ Xuanhuan novels I have read so far. All the more reason to be aware of my personal bias but to hell with it!^^... more>>

This one had me reading till the late morning hours every night and among all those "different world" stories it is one of the very best. The regression-like element early on felt pretty novel to me since it is not some all-knowing omnipotent returner who plays everyone and everything like some puppeteer. I won't go into more detail so as to not spoil anyone who might read this.... more>>
747 Chapters Every 0.3 Day(s) 18273 Readers 211 Reviews 04-20-2024
Another KR novel with typical elements like status windows, skills, a world within a tower where each floor presents a trial to be solved to those attempting to climb it. So far it might sound quite familiar to many NU readers.... more>>
40 Chapters Every 68.9 Day(s) 2796 Readers 13 Reviews 03-16-2024
As an openener: This one has a lot of common tropes but I still like it a lot. It's fun.... more>>
163 Chapters Every 7.1 Day(s) 2677 Readers 18 Reviews 04-21-2024
A rather recent find as of writing this passage (06/22) and counting around 70 chapters worth of translated chapters. Not much to say to not spoil your fun but it is a fun and enjoyable ride with our not-so-human female protagonist^^... more>>
458 Chapters Every 6.3 Day(s) 29952 Readers 339 Reviews 04-20-2024
A quite massive amount to read, don't be fooled by the comparatively low chapter count!... more>>
456 Chapters Every 22.5 Day(s) 10000 Readers 114 Reviews 06-14-2023
In a single sentence: This is a "Forrest Gump" take with a Chinese Scholar MC in a fantasy world.... more>>
571 Chapters Every 12.2 Day(s) 4563 Readers 65 Reviews 10-30-2023
Another Chinese Martial Arts Fantasy with a decent touch of mystery. I have read about 600-something chapters and then sadly the translation had disappeared at the time. The beginning has really caught me with the mysterious setting and from there it was a joyful ride.... more>>
670 Chapters Every 10.4 Day(s) 15785 Readers 63 Reviews 04-20-2024
56 Reviews and 3.8/5 stars atm (06/22), this is a really slow slice of life, fanatsy world reincarnation story. Warning up front: This might be too slow for some and some passages are definitely a bit too long-winded, at least for my personal taste. Nonetheless I enjoy reading about Ryouma's 2nd go at life after his rather difficult time on Earth.... more>>
388 Chapters Every 10.5 Day(s) 3038 Readers 46 Reviews 02-18-2024
Currently 38 Reviews and 4.1/5 stars as of (06/22). Yes, there is a Romance tag and I personally liked the romance as far as I've read, no spoilers on that front tho^^... more>>
443 Chapters Every 106 Day(s) 26831 Readers 96 Reviews 08-21-2020
This one is highly rated at 4.2/5 in June 22 and it's been a good while since I read it.... more>>
764 Chapters Every 78 Day(s) 27221 Readers 210 Reviews 01-30-2022
"I'm a spider, so what?" really sounds like a sentence the MC of this novel might throw at you. Well if she can be bothered to, that is ;)... more>>
20 Chapters Every 123.9 Day(s) 5382 Readers 29 Reviews 04-22-2022
Not a reincarnation type novel but as the title says, the MC is frozen in ice for 25 years before he returns to society. A KR novel with a typical game-like world of hunters, dungeons, all the usual stuff if you have read some of those.... more>>
198 Chapters Every 72.6 Day(s) 19783 Readers 174 Reviews 06-16-2021
My scepticism held me back a good while here. "I was in the book I read" always seemed such a cheap way to introduce a fantasy world transmigration... But I was positively surprised, the romance and characters are actually nice.... more>>
55 Chapters Every 177.7 Day(s) 23792 Readers 316 Reviews 11-26-2017
What if you were quasi-omniscient about the world and its major future happenings but had no strength, influence or followers to make something out of it?... more>>
355 Chapters Every 33.7 Day(s) 13987 Readers 216 Reviews 04-14-2024
Just recently completed in 05/22 this is one isekai story worth reading, even if the title screems "THIS IS COMPLETE BS" to you as it did to me at first.... more>>
20 Chapters Every 285.3 Day(s) 14697 Readers 136 Reviews 02-09-2021
Although the lazy as hell premise of "My brother left me his diary and every useful hint ever is basically in there" made me curse at the author about seven thousand times (totally not a random number), this novel had me reading until it was first dropped around chapter 600 or so.... more>>
1361 Chapters Every 3.6 Day(s) 18112 Readers 98 Reviews 03-04-2024
Very unusual setting of the MC being a sentient sword. Rating of 4.2/5 as of now (06/22) seems adequate, this is a fun ride! On their journey, the sword-san and his wielder meet many interesting people, solve problems and crises and fight a lot as adventurers.... more>>
373 Chapters Every 85.1 Day(s) 18466 Readers 164 Reviews 01-17-2021
I will not say much here but I have read up to about CH380 so far and especially the first 200-300 had me hooked. As... more>>
736 Chapters Every 37.9 Day(s) 25418 Readers 239 Reviews 03-20-2024
I have read this one to the end and it is truly a game-like fantasy world setting. It belongs to the "Protagonist strong from the start" for all intents and purposes although there is always more to be had. A journey across a textbook fantasy world with dragons, elves, beast-people and so on, where heroes and demons have fierce (and sometimes comedic) encounters, I'd say.... more>>

Writing all those descriptions for the novels really takes a while, lol.
Tried ranking the entries but with the different Genres it is just too hard to do^^
Changelog 03-11-2022: Added Kidnapped Dragons to the list, updated description of Kumoko.
Sadly no other candidates for my fav-list yet
I have actually been reading kidnapped dragons for a while and it's really great!
the bookworm is on my todo list but the other 2 I didn't consider yet, will take a look! Thank you!^^
