Genre: Cultivation, Martial Arts, Werewolf, Food, Pokémon, Survival, Online Games, Awakening, Qin Dynasty (serving Qin Shi Huang), Rule-based Mysteries, and Support-type novels are all included below. For Cultivation, I recommend the first one, featuring a male lead with no desires; the second one is good at the beginning but has a bad ending—a mindless wish-fulfillment novel. The fourth Werewolf novel is the best; the two Pokémon novels are different types of Support-type novels; the fourteenth one, the one with the purification element, is good; the God-level one is too old to remember, so it's just average. The rest are mostly single-genre.
