A good story never fades with time. I only like happy endings. Let people say what they want! I've been reading for over ten years... I prefer long novels. I don't read danmei, harem stories, novels with bland protagonists, or Mary Sue stories. If I can get into a book and still remember it some time later, it's a good one to me... I'll add more from time to time. Most of these are complete! The rest are on their way to being finished! Tap ❤ if you like this list. (This is a very old account. I only got it back because I forgot my password, but I only recommend books I've actually read and enjoyed.)
