Novels I need to read !!! :)... more>>

Cough…. most will probably not rank very high with me.

This list is made up of completed and non-completed novels. All genres are welcome, except for harem novels lol. Though a few might sneak through.

P.S. no BL or GL.  <<less

Every story that I've already read will be deleted from this list and moved to either the 'just okay/dropped' or 'so good' list

No description.

All 4+stars. Most I loved. Some I’d just recommend. Different strokes for different folks and all :)... more>>

Added a few xianxia and xuanhuan themed novels <<less

Heteros*xual Romantic Relationships (some are exophilia) [No Harem or School Life & very little Slice of Life]... more>>

For my followers and those who wish to follow: Let it be known that this is not an accurate list.  I have excluded some nonhuman males.  Stories that are under 10 chapters long and have not been updated in a year will not be included in this list.  I will include descriptions for each as I read them.

~If you're looking for completed stories good enough to be read more than once, then check out my 'Completed Favorites' list.  I highly recommend it! <<less

No harem... more>>

- First page shows novels with male protagonists, rest is female-centric and last page shows more R18 novels 

- Check out PART 2 here: https://www.novelupdates.info/viewlist/92647/

Other novel recommendations:
- "Immortal's wine store" (Heavenly God MC transmigrates to new world, w system providing missions to brew wine)

 - "watch out! danger ahead" (FMC, horror, survival game to be God, from weak to OP, start was quite interesting)

- "shocking the whole internet! He's not a psychologist at all!" (MC, lifestreams to help change others' fate and cultivate to be immortal)

- "the rich young lady destroyed her dream girl script" (FMC, OP main characters, not your usual dreaming of being in a novel/character w system story -- in fact kinda like downfall)

- "among cultivators, I stand above all" (FMC, aware she'll be killed by novel MC in future, tries to make use of her time to learn as many skills, one of the most hardworking cultivator MC I know)

- "transmigrating as a delicate bundle of luck for a farming family" (FMC, one of the sweetest loving family/friend relationships, with MC being a divine doctor, though ended up going an unexpected plot line, made me tear up many times early in novel, with interesting mix of cultivation/superpowers introduced in later stages, stopped around 800+chapters) <<less

My Favorite Chinese Historical  Novels which I've finished or I am currently reading part 2 >.< This list consists of both BL and Straight novels with... more>> a rating above 4.0~ <<less

I have over 100 novels marked TBR. I recognise I have a problem

My list of novel
No specific ranking
No BL/GL

Not a Ranking List. ... more>>

Just novels that I found interesting.

Mostly tragedy, but not limited to that. I like a tragedy for a good cry, not for a distressed cry. So mostly these novels aren't full of ab*se just to make you cry. You will cry because you feel for the characters. 

There are fluffs and diabetes here, but like I said, mostly tragedy. 

Please read the Genre and Tags of the novel before plunging yourself into this hellhole. 

My tendencies are to seek novels in which: the CP Happy Ending is when they are together <in death>, the CP Happy Ending is when they are together <in life>, the CP is supportive of each other, or the CP building is interesting.

Have a good cry reading these novels! <<less

Novels that I am waiting for it to be completed... more>>

Most of the novels have romance, transmigration, rebirth etc... <<less

Either it makes you cry a river or choke you to death with dog food. There's no in between.

In no particular order.
Fav authors :
Bai Li Zi / chestnut (heart warming stories). Mo Ding. Zi Xin Yu (short stories with tragedies). Gu Man. Mo Bao... more>> Fei Bao. Jiu Lu Fei Xiang. Celine Gu Xi Jue. Tong Hua (amazing writer, her tragedy novels could make you cry a river) <<less

Novels I loved, mtled, and giggled over. 

Mostly set in ancient China so expect politics, harem, face slapping, honorifics, you know the drill. Added some with a modern set up only if I can’t find anything that interests me as of the moment.... more>>

If completed via MTL, will rate MTL quality from 1-5. <<less

In no particular order.

Ended up falling by mistake into the world of cultivation's cauldron. Didn't gain any superpowers sadly, just a good old mundane high from it. Particularly for cultivation novels with a female MC. Looking for more.... more>>

This is just a list to track down my to-be-read as well as likes and dislikes a.k.a my personal library. Recommendations are welcome!

✩= Genuine cultivation novel <<less

These are all the Romances that come highly recommended and have been on my radar. Ended up being quite an eclectic mix though. Enjoy!... more>>

Note: Obviously this list will frequently change. The novels are later either moved to my "New Favorite Historical Romance of 2022" list or my "Put on ice" list.

Latest moves:

      - New Favorite HR: Who cares?; The Imperial guard’s revenge; Royal Road; Villainess won’t let the main lead break up

      - Novels Put on ice:  <<less

Wuxia: Martial arts, but nothing else, People practice martial arts. They are mortals and their goal is not to be immortal.
Xianxia: Wuxia + C-nese magic-based mainly on Daoism
Xuanhuan: eastern fantasy, Might have cultivation, but it's more fantasy than anything... more>>

My recommended Wuxia story [Which is QT but all the worlds are related to this genre]

[No CP] [Comprehensive Martial Arts] My life will stop  【无CP】[综武侠]吾命将休

[Comprehensive] Zhao Ru Sun and Moon_Little Fox Xili [End + Fan Wai]     [综]昭如日月_小狐昔里【完结+番外】

A favorite Korean manhua  -> Trinity Wonder

Jianghu/kangho: the most generalised answer is “The part of the world the imperial court doesn’t have direct jurisdiction over.” You are talking about brothels, gangs, bandits, slums, the underworld, rogue disciples from various sects and more. There's no order and rife with crime. It's like taobao, lol. Wulin/murim: refers to specifically and only to martial arts schools/sects/cults etc. The wulin is considered the refined, respected and virtuous people in society; they're also placed higher on the hierarchy. There's order. If jianghu is taobao, Wulin is Tmall.

BG romance. Light, sweet, and simple.... more>>

Enjoyment level 100/10. Everything I’ve read and liked. From a picky reader’s perspective.

Favorite authors: You Qian, Jiu Liu Fei Xiang, Qian Shan Cha Ke, Yue Xia Die Ying

p.s: Most novels that are listed here are comedic, with strong FL and devoted love interests (no second male lead syndrome) ☆〜（ゝ。∂） <<less

No description.

This list is to keep track of novels I am considering to MTL or read

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. ... more>>

Last three newly added: #9 | Don’t Touch Porcelain, #22 | Unconscious, #14 | I Am Average and Unremarkable

No. 1 - No. 27 | Incomplete Translations

No. 28+ | 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 <<less
