Ordinary Novels I Enjoyed

Ordinary Novels I Enjoyed
This is a list of novels that aren't top-tier, but I still enjoyed thoroughly. These novels are either taste-specfic or didn't quite make the cut for the other novels that I recommended in my "Great" novels list (I highly recommend checking it out). It may also have some greats that I haven't read far enough to justify putting it in the other list. I will add to this list as I read novels.

They are in no particular order

One of the few slow-paced/fluff stories I like. Quite unusual but it is a nice read. Don't expect much logic though...... more>>

I liked it and from what I read, it is a novel that could appeal to many. Nevertheless, after a while, it just wasn't my cup of tea. Solid story, but be aware that it seems to be permanent hiatus.... more>>

A novel of the non-horror infinite genre. It is good and many will like it if they like infinite stories, but I never really liked the settings of scenarios (most will be based off TV media). I may read it from the start with a fresh mind after some time.... more>>

If you like non-horror infinity stories, then this is a good fit if there is nothing else. It holds up well, but falls short of a few promises in its story (This frustrated me while reading, but if you go into it expecting this, it should still be a fun read). Don't expect anything too sci-fi or variance in the MC.... more>>

Ordinary novel. Traditional dungeon power fantasy korean novel, but sort of well-developed. One of my first finished novels and though it was sort-of a slog in a few chapters, I enjoyed it nonetheless. ... more>>

Ordinary and it has been a while since I have read it. Despite this, It is in reserve for re-reading if the time ever comes, but I've got other more interesting novels to read. Still recommend. It is a solid story that moves forward. Nothing to lose by reading it.... more>>

I liked this novel, it was fun but I'm pretty sure the ending was rushed/axed. Despite this, I liked everything leading up to it. I am a sucker for technology R&D and capitalist research novels (surprisingly hard to find them though ?) One of my first finished novels.... more>>

Logic is questionable, but it isn't bad. Above average in terms of power-fantasy quality and though I am not a harem fan (nor was much a fan of it in this novel), it was tolerable and didn't take away too much. It was one of my first finished novels.... more>>

Fun novel with a powerful but normal goldfinger™. It's great watching how it can be made use of in the story, but it does get a little repetitive after a few hundred chapters. Recommended to read if you want a fun junk-genre novel to read.... more>>

It's a pretty good read. If you haven't LOTM, you wouldn't be none the wiser. Nonetheless, it is a fan-fiction (of game media), but the fanfic elements are pretty unobtrusive and I forgot it was at some points (the world and system is original). It has pretty good scenes, action, and planning, but a common critique of the novel is that it feigns intelligence for well explained coincidences. This does get a little tiring at points. There is also not much variation in prose which can get mind-numbing after a while (Unsure if this is a TL error).... more>>

One of the first novels I read, I stopped because I wasn't used to reading more than 50 chapters at the time (I was just a leek!). Still good and fast-paced story. It is in reserve for re-reading and from what I remember, it was quite fun.... more>>

This is a pretty good novel. It definitely has potential, but It does require some build-up. There isn't enough TLed chapters for me to evaluate it in my other list yet. It may not seem like it, but it actually has a surprising amount of thought put into it despite the prose. The author does have the habit of of deluding to events or adding descriptions in a meta-like style that kinda irks me sometimes, but it is tolerable given the story.... more>>

For some reason, I have a strange obsession with this novel. It's not top-tier, but I really like the premise (?). It has passed by many translators and I can't really tolerate its MTL. It's solid though.... more>>

It's been a while since I read this, but its basically about a psychopathic mu*dering girl in a vr game. This reveals itself very fast. Fun read as you don't find many stories like it, but don't go into it expecting deep characters.... more>>

Fun novel with a hardcore premise. Pretty unique and down-to-earth details, with large focus on MC's thoughts and effects of gender bender.... more>>

Fun novel If you like mecha/sports with some action. Typically I'm adverse to shounen-ai/yaoi, but this doesn't really have as much of a focus on that. Unfortunately it falls into a quickly identifiable pattern of battle, injury, rest, repeat cycle and it got pretty boring fast for me personally.... more>>

This novel is fun but slowly goes stale if you aren't really into SCP inspired stories. The writing gets a little monotone and somewhat predictable after a while. Despite this, it is well written if you want something more meta or unusual in its power creep.... more>>

Its pretty interesting and it is a more "realistic" slice of life of a man transmigrated into a honey badger. You don't really find much like it and it is controlled in its scope. It is a little bit of a slower paced novel.... more>>

Its a fun novel and there isn't anything too bad to say about it other than that it is a true school-life story with a bit of fantasy mixed in. While reading, it felt like it sort of lost its identity and became a magic slife-of-life about 100 chapters in, but nevertheless, its great dialogue and character dynamics make up for it.... more>>

This novel is pretty interesting and I would have read further, but reading it was like walking through mud. There is never really any tension and it seems that apart from dedicating seemingly infinite amount of time in one day, he can usually solve the problem by just leveling up his skills for a bit. There is nothing bad about it, but it is pretty ordinary regarding storytelling and the main character.... more>>

Ordinary novel. It isn't very ground-breaking and offers a rather predictable narrative. Despite this, it was one of the first novels I finished and I found it interesting at the time.... more>>

Very fun novel (I highly recommend it) and I would have included it with the greats if it weren't for its position in both memory and reading priority. Power Fantasy. I don't have clear memory of it and its power systems get a little muddled later, but somehow I have managed to drop it twice (Just by simple abandon, I.e. forgetting about it and not reading it to retain context) at 1000+ chapters (!!!). Whether there is a reason for this or not, if I ever re-read in reserve and complete it I will change my evaluation.... more>>

This novel is great, but I don't have clear enough recollection to put it in my other list. It is in reserve for re-reading. When I first read it though, I caught up to translations and I really liked it. It is a little cliche/edgy (not over-the top though).... more>>

Interesting story and there are some fun moments, though it is a slog at a few short points. Despite this, it is an interesting read and offers surprising variety in its setting. Power Fantasy (?).... more>>
