1. 1 寻 Searching for Winter, Seeking Summer 寻冬觅夏 The Rhythm of Fragmented Chapters断章的节奏Urban517k WordsCompleted —Tickets80.5kClicks741Favorites

   Curator note

   This is a story about a younger sister (brother and sister), set after an earthquake when both parents died. The writing is good, but the plot is terrible. Both the brother and sister die, leaving the reader extremely disturbed. However, it's undeniable that it's a real shame to miss it. The biggest flaw is that the wicked woman manipulates the male and female leads without dying herself, and there are too many illogical plot points. Recommendation rating: ★★★★

2. 2 被 Abandoned by My Brother, I Became His Enemy's Sidekick 被兄弟抛弃后成了他仇敌跟班 Guang Cai QwQ光菜QwQCampus208k WordsOngoing Their bond as brothers was driven apart. Yang Zhi had thought their friendship was strong, but never imagined his brother would truly come to hate him. Sitting on the school athletic field at dusk, Yang Zhi was sobbing over losing his only friend when someone suddenly put an arm around his shoulders. "Hey, he doesn't want you anymore, little shadow. Follow me from now on." The story of a self-conscious, sensitive girl with social anxiety. Gender bender + gender reversal + 1v1 + angst before s 0Tickets699.6kClicks6.1kFavorites

   Curator note

   Damn it, it was about to change, and then it stopped updating! The plot is about a girl who, as the childhood friend of a boy, is rejected by him and then falls for his enemy. The plot is good, and the writing is decent, but the author has a bad temper. Recommendation rating: ★★★★

3. 3 被 I Just Want to Survive After Being Targeted by a Yandere Girl 被病娇少女盯上的我只想活下去 Wind Through the Torii风透鸟居Campus660k WordsOngoing The sweet, delicate upperclasswoman can wield a knife without so much as batting an eye. The club president, who seems airheaded, is actually a nasty young lady who loves training people to become pets. The beautiful girl at the desk in front of me seems as untouchable as a flower on a lofty peak, but in private she's a perverted woman who longs to keep me imprisoned. Even my seemingly sweet and adorable little sister is inevitably one of the yandere girls. Now that I've discovered their true na 0Tickets4.7MClicks31.4kFavorites

   Curator note

   The character development is good, but the foreshadowing is rather shallow, and the self-destruction is rather confusing. However, the younger sister's tsundere personality, the upperclassman's pitiful appearance, and Mashiro's crazy personality are all portrayed quite well. Recommendation rating: ★★★

4. 4 反 As the Villain, I Only Want Them to Obediently Do as They're Told 反派的我只想让她们乖乖听话 Three Thousand Fish三千鱼Western Fantasy1.2M WordsCompleted When I was still a good person, I was falsely accused of being a traitor. Reborn into this life, all I want is to be a bona fide villain. As a duke's son, isn't it only natural for me to be an arrogant playboy? What, you're going to report me for kidnapping the Grand Princess? No, I kidnapped the Little Princess too. You're saying I bought two slaves but only paid the price of one? Don't slander me!

   Curator note

   In summary, the book's unique features are what they are all about. The plot is alright. If you like erotic content, you might want to check this out; it's a harem novel. Push-up Index: ★★★

5. 5 病 The Disease Is Called Love 病名为爱 LyuxCampus43k WordsCompleted Dedicated only to my beloved younger sister (My True love ) 0Tickets39.3kClicks751Favorites

   Curator note

   A love affair buried for ten years is brought up again, a love that cannot be spoken of. Recommendation rating: ★★★

6. 6 血 The Blood Princess and the Knight 血姬与骑士 Return of the Han and Tang漢唐歸來Western Fantasy3.7M WordsCompleted I was captured after losing a skirmish against a group of vampires while serving as a paladin. "Oh my, you think I'm going to kill you? Dream on. Accept my first embrace. From now on, I hope we'll get along, my dear daughter." The silver-haired vampire queen, a little girl, playfully lifted my chin and smiled, then aimed her sharp fangs at my neck. (Dong Zheng's new novel, "I Was Turned into a Young Dragon Princess by the Silver Dragon Queen," is now online. 11Tickets108.6MClicks357.7kFavorites

   Curator note

   The early stages have a good pace, telling an interesting story of a human knight transforming into a vampire princess. However, the plot falls apart in the mid-to-late stages. It's recommended to read it as a light novel. Recommendation rating: ★★★

7. 7 女 A Daughter's Heart 女兒心 Silver Maiden in Troubled Times乱世银娘Campus4.8M WordsCompleted 1999. An ordinary boy. An accident. An operation. A new life as a girl. This novel is simply about everyday life. I dedicate this book to the classic gender-bender stories of the past, and hope there will still be successors to carry on their legacy, rather than everyone treating transformation as just a gimmick. 72Tickets12.8MClicks65.8kFavorites

   Curator note

   This was my gateway into the genre, a classic transformation novel. If you're tired of the current trend of silly, cute, and suggestive transformation stories that become popular just by being a little risqué, then come back and check this out. As the book's synopsis says, one surgery, one different life. Recommendation rating: ★★★★★

8. 8 外 Am I Really a Boy When I'm This Cute? 外表太过可爱的我真的是男生吗 Qi Di Xing启迪星Campus335k WordsCompleted “I like you, Xia Ye.” “I like you too, Jiang Lian... but I’m a boy...” “I don’t care.” “But I do... and sooner or later, you will too... Mm...” After a long while, they parted. The boy gazed quietly at the beautiful face in his arms. “That’s my answer...” “What the hell! Aren’t you a guy?!” “Not anymore.” The girl straddled the boy, looking utterly dismissive. “And one more thing: don’t tell me you’re tired tonight. Lately, I’ve been very, very hungry.” 0Tickets782.6kClicks7.6kFavorites

   Curator note

   In the early stages of the fake marriage, the cross-dressing boy transformed into a "juice extractor" to drain his boyfriend dry in order to become a woman (ps: a male body, by the way). They've now reached the stage of the actual marriage transformation; it's a very novel concept. Recommendation rating: ★★★

9. 9 被 I’m So Sick of Being Forced to Cross-Dress 被迫成为伪娘的我真的好烦 Moe Girls Should Read Light Novels Too萌妹也要看轻小说Campus51k WordsOngoing P.S. This book follows two storylines at once. Choose a different one for a different experience. See "Notes" in the table of contents for details! As a boy, I was raised as a girl at home. Outside, people treated me like a freak. Maybe it was sad, but that's just how things were. So, why not become the ultimate cross-dresser, with every kind of charm imaginable? Still, who could understand all the troubles I've faced along the way? 0Tickets440.4kClicks2kFavorites

   Crossdressing novels, with a tendency towards depression. Recommendation rating: ★★

"Someone sent a tip. At least ten chapters today. Every typo means an extra ten thousand words. If you can't write that much, you'd better figure something out." "I've been busy lately. I might come over for dinner tonight, so remember to make enough for two." "I bought you two new dresses. Wear them properly. It's getting colder, so don't catch a chill." "I'm staying over tonight. Make sure the bed is warm." "... 0Tickets9.7MClicks64.4kFavorites

    Curator note

    An older man, due to his sharp tongue, was transformed into a little girl by the Grim Reaper. This accidental act foreshadowed their future together. Their impoverished life as a child gradually improves, as they strive towards a better future. Their everyday life, filled with warmth and hope, is both simple and beautiful. A realistic, healing-oriented story (the book's defining characteristic is its focus on the everyday realities of life, which are most comforting to the human heart). Recommendation rating: ★★★

11. 11 受 Humiliated Again and Again, I Will Not Submit to the Demonic Fallen Fairy 受尽羞辱的我不向魔堕仙子屈服 Sixteen-Night Pearl十六夜明珠Eastern Fantasy1.3M WordsCompleted As a holy grail of elixirs, a spiritual-energy power bank, and “Tang Monk meat” that could extend your life just by rubbing against you without going all the way, or grant instant ascension if eaten, Leng Xuan was used and abused by wicked women countless times.

    Curator note

    After I died, I, who loved my brother, became his cat. Love is both a bondage and a shackle. Recommendation rating: ★★★

13. 13 来 I Come from the Abyss, and Today I'll Save Humanity Again 来自深渊的我今天也要拯救人类 A Clump of Spanish一簇西语Western Fantasy3.0M WordsOngoing The Abyss represents pure annihilation. Its denizens possess unrivaled power and follow their instincts, devouring every living thing in the world. But one day, a traitor emerged from among them. "Miss Sylviga, it's time to show them your power." "Eh~ But I haven't finished my dessert." She's still a macho man today. PS: The protagonist is single. Come flirt with her~ 39Tickets66MClicks197.5kFavorites

    Curator note

    The value of this book is self-evident. Some people might not be able to stand the fact that the female protagonist is seen naked by other men at the beginning, but I believe you will come to like this book as you read on. Overall, it doesn't feel like a transformation story; it's more like a female protagonist story. The writing, foreshadowing, and plot are all quite good. Recommendation rating: ★★★★★

Looking at the women before him, he vowed to calculate the future they wanted most.

The people honor you as the Valkyrie.] [You become the greatest female immortal of all time, wise and perceptive, able to discern the truths of heaven and earth. Though eras change, you remain undying.] 0Tickets970.5kClicks5.9kFavorites

    Curator note

    Excellent vocabulary and fluent writing are my first impressions of this book. A young celestial master who knows the future—when the future is no longer unknown, and he is told this, would you hate him? Those who cannot bear the consequences will ultimately attribute it all to resentment towards him. This book contains a large number of yandere characters. Recommendation rating: ★★★★

Do you yearn for a sweet, obedient, thoughtful beauty to take your hand on a cold winter day and warm your whole life? That's right, you have to start raising a girlfriend when she's young.

One was his buddy, and the other was a girl who liked him. "What do you like about me? Is it because I look a lot like a girl and can do a convincing feminine voice? Or what?" Lu Yinyun was going a little crazy inside. He just couldn't understand either of them. So, whose boyfriend or 0Tickets42.1kClicks578Favorites
