Whispers Beneath the Honey Locust Tree

High School Campus Novels

School setting, secret crush.

School Life, Secret Crush, Cowardly Leads

Looking for books like *A Timid Person’s 1,001st Confession of Love*. Have you ever had a crush on someone? If you enjoy bittersweet stories about young love, give this one a try.

Looking for Ensemble-Cast Stories Where the Leads and Supporting Characters Share the Spotlight

I really need recommendations. I’ve hit a terrible reading slump lately. Everything people recommend is either about being doted on by everyone or has an absurdly overpowered protagonist. Please suggest some ensemble-cast stories where the protagonist isn’t exceptionally impressive. Any romance setup or no romance is fine, but no transmigrating into a book, and no transmigration. Please recommend some!

Secret Crush Stories With an Ordinary Heroine, Not a Quiet, Top-Student Type

Any High School Romance Novels With a Young, Tender Feel and a Slow Pace?

Looking for books similar to *My School Beauty Deskmate Spoils Me Until I’m a Good-for-Nothing*.

Looking for a Novel

The protagonist can dream things into reality, I think. It can include the Queen from Resident Evil, the technology from The Three-Body Problem, and the Gate of Eternal Life. That’s about all I can remember.

Any High School Romance With Normal Male and Female Leads?

High school stories set on campus, preferably short ones!!

Looking for a School-and-Youth Novel. Something Ordinary and Low-Key, Please

School Romance with a Girl Secretly in Love with a Boy: Happy Ending, Heartache, and a Reunion After Years Apart!!!

Campus Ensemble Stories, Ahhhhh!

Please recommend an ensemble school story, with a group of free-spirited, lively teenagers gathered together, bickering and fooling around. Something funny, lighthearted, and fast-paced. I really love this kind of thing, please!!!!!

Any Youth or School Life Novels?

Looking for books like *Her Smile Is Like a Piece of Candy*. Ideally, the leads meet in high school and start dating in college. No angst!! No angst!! And nothing adapted into a TV series.

Campus Novels Worthy of Godhood! (Preferably Completed)

Looking for Stories That Really Capture Authentic High School Life

I really can’t stand stories where there’s always some school bully, or where classmates are horribly cruel to each other. I’m a high school freshman, and I don’t understand why students are written like they’re enemies. I’ve been in school for years, and my classmates have always been really nice to each other.

Please!!! Campus Novels

Looking for books like *The Rules of Unrequited Love*. School setting, both leads are top students!! Nothing like a school bully paired with a goody-goody girl.

Youth, School Life, No School Beauties, No Power Trip, No System

A Crush Story That Feels Completely Real

Looking for books like This Is a Very Realistic Unrequited Love Story. Please! Please! Please! I want an incredibly realistic story about unrequited love. Happy or sad endings are both fine. It should be short, a novella or short story.

A Super Realistic High School Story with Incredibly Immersive Writing

I’m looking for books like After Transmigrating to the Apocalypse, I Became a Little Zombie Girl.

Please, Give Me a Novel That Brings Together Youth, Friendship, and the Reckless Spirit of Being Young!

Looking for books similar to *When the Wind Turns Warm*. Lately, I've really been into stories about youth, with friendships that last a lifetime woven in. I want to feel the passion and sincerity of young people, along with their free-spirited, rebellious way of doing things. They fear nothing and hold nothing back.

Everyday Life! Normal! Realistic! Campus Life~

I’m looking for something more down-to-earth. The heroine shouldn’t be too meek, too weak, or too arrogant. She should be capable, but not insanely powerful. The male lead shouldn’t be obsessive or anything like that. Just be normal. He doesn’t have to be aloof, just normal. Please recommend something like this, thanks!

Please Recommend Pure Youthful Campus Romance
