See allSuddenly in the Mood for Cultivation Stories, the Kind Without a System
I'm out of books to read. Looking for something that holds up well.
Dear Authors, Come Recommend Your Own Books!
Authors, please come recommend your own books!
Looking for Traditional Cultivation Stories with Gradual Growth and Nothing Too Over-the-Top
Couples are fine, or no couples!
Are There Any Novels Where the Male Lead Has Had a Crush on the Female Lead for Years?
It has to be available on Tomato Novel. I'm too lazy to search through other apps. I want something entirely sweet with no angst. I'm picky about chastity, so I won't read a novel unless both leads have only ever been with each other. Please!! And stop recommending "The National Film Emperor Has a Secret Crush on Me". I've already read it.
Any Master-Disciple Romance Stories? 😝 The Female Lead Should Be the Master 😄
Hmm, I'm in a reading slump lately. Could you lovely ladies recommend me something? 😊
Junior Sister, Hilarious, Awesome Cultivation Novel, Beloved by the Whole Sect, Breaking the Mold
Female Side Character Cultivates Immortality, Born into a Cultivation Family, with Excellent Spiritual Roots, a Good Family Background, Heaven-Defying Luck, and a Pocket Dimension
Transmigrate into a Book, Villainess, and Campus Life All in One
Any recommendations for novels featuring transmigration into a book, a female supporting character, and a school setting?
The Supporting Female Lead Sees the Future and Snatches the Female Lead’s Opportunities First
Female-Oriented Cultivation Novels
Are there any decent female-oriented cultivation novels on Tomato Novel? No romance, and absolutely no sexist slurs in the book. They're cultivating immortality, so don't have anyone saying men are stronger than women. No female rivalry, and if there is any, it shouldn't be over a man, but over power or status. Also, please don't make every male character an older fellow disciple.
A Cultivation Story Where the Villainess Can’t Be Bothered and Gives Her Body to the Black Lotus Soul Inside Her
Female Protagonist with a Life Script or Simulator
Reborn From Birth: A Cute Little Baby, Cool and Gorgeous, Come On!
Just to be clear, the transmigration happens before birth (´-ω-`), not at age three and a half, four and a half, five, and so on. Recommendations welcome ⊙ω⊙
Stories Where the Heroine Transmigrates into a Book as a Supporting Character and Keeps Her Distance from the Male Lead
I mean the kind where someone transmigrates into the body of a supporting female character, stops obsessing over the male lead, and decides to live on her own. Wouldn't that be better? ( ̄ε(# ̄)☆╰╮o( ̄▽ ̄///)
Sword Cultivators
Looking for a book with a sword-cultivator setting, one cool and aloof female lead, and no other female leads.
Looking for a Strong Heroine Cultivation Novel, Preferably with a Female-Dom Romance. No Couple Is Fine Too!
I don't want the female lead to be the clingy, dependent type. I want her to be assertive and handsome!
What Do Men Feel When Reading Female-Oriented Novels?
Tomato Novel has made me realize there’s a huge difference between novels for men and novels for women. They’re not even in the same league, especially when it comes to ratings!
Cultivation
Are there any books where the female protagonist transmigrates into a cultivation world and has a System?
Any Cultivation Novels With a Strong Female Lead?!!!
You can also share your favorite cultivation novels. I’m looking for historical romance! No saintly heroines! A System and a golden finger! The heroine should be super powerful!
The Female Lead Transmigrates Into a Cultivation World With High Talent, Back to When She Was a Child
Or a story where the heroine is reborn as a baby, has sound values, and cultivates diligently.
Female-Oriented Cultivation Novels with Sign-In Systems
Female-oriented cultivation novels with sign-ins. Having a pocket dimension is a plus, and a System would be even better.
Cultivation Stories with a Female Lead, No Romance. Transmigration, Transmigrating into a Book, or Being Born into the Story Are All Fine
The key thing is no romance, no romance. The heroine can be aloof or lively. She just needs to keep a low profile until the end.
Cultivation: A Noble Heroine Cherished by Her Family, With Great Talent and Strength
No fake sweethearts or self-righteous saints. Something like Shui Qianzhu's works.

The author writes wonderfully, but I'm curious what will happen when the female lead finds out that the male lead's previous attempts to play the victim were all lies.
I've read a few chapters and am completely captivated by the plot. I love the male lead's cunning yet feigned innocence, and I adore the female lead's kindness and cuteness. The story is interesting and engaging. Keep up the good work, author! Update soon!
I really want to see what the female lead is like when she finds out the male lead's true colors. It's so good! Author, please update!
I'm giving it 5 stars because it's so good! The female lead is aloof and quirky, while the male lead is cunning and possessive, but he seems to become more easygoing after meeting the female lead, especially when he's with Junior Brother Lu and Bai He, haha. What I love most is the setting of Shu Mountain, like a secluded paradise where everyone does what they love.
Sigh, the author's writing is superb. I really like the male and female leads and the people from their sect... I read all day and got to chapter 91 where it turned into a male-male pairing. I personally dislike it when a male-female couple novel suddenly turns into a male-male pairing. Sigh... Goodbye.
So far, this novel is of very high quality. Both the plot and the characters really resonate with me. The female lead appears aloof but is actually quite mischievous, and I also really like the male lead, who's a seemingly innocent but actually cunning character. Many of the dialogue and plot points are quite funny, and the strong moral compass is something most cultivation novels don't emphasize.
Haha, the female lead is a total straight woman! The disciples of Shushan are all so cute and adorable—a really warm and goofy bunch! The male lead had a tragic past life, dying in the female lead's arms—so pitiful! Because of his tragic past, the reborn male lead might not be very likable at first, but he's incredibly handsome, a perfect cook, and has amazing culinary skills! Haha, that's great too! Looking forward to updates!
This book is clearly amazing, so why is nobody reading it?! The author's writing is superb! ✨ Highly recommend it! (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) I love it so much!
Aside from the slow updates, it has no other flaws. I originally wanted to save more episodes to read later, but then I realized saving them was impossible since the author isn't updating and I've already forgotten a lot of the plot...
The setting of Mount Shu is very novel; it feels like a paradise in the immortal realm, a place where one can remain undisturbed even in a chaotic world. The female lead's personality is also very much to my liking. At first, I wondered why she was closer to the male lead more, but after reading the author's comments, I remembered that she's a pitiful girl who brings bad luck to whoever she gets…
