General Reading Recommendation Thread (Not Series License Requests)
-
@Rahul-Balaggan Well, I am asking for light novels with physical versions. So I can buy one, since about to finish my current light novels. I not really sure which ones have a physical version.
-
Gotcha, if you only want physical Light Novels and that is your only criteria, (without knowing what you already own, or what genres you enjoy) I’d say read Ascendance of a Bookworm.
All 3 volumes in Part 1 of the story are available right now for purchase, and Volume 1 of Part 2 will be released next month.
It is a great story, I would call it a slice of life story, with plenty of comedy, and drama mixed throughout, and a bit of action here and there.
-
@Rahul-Balaggan It look fun I buy it when I done. There isn't nothing I would not read but preference will be the following.
Cat girl.
Monster girls.
Economics since I like Spice and Wolf.
Weird stuff like Please Don't Bully Me, Nagatoro.
Scary female/male mc.
Harem in general I like.
Any science fiction stuff. -
Read Death March to a Parallel world Rhapsody.
It has cat girls, and monster girls, harem
-
@Rahul-Balaggan Thanks.
-
@JRPG-Nation You should try "Last and first idole" then, it has monster girls, scary female MC, weird stuff (a lot of it) and science fiction, and it's available in paperback.
-
@Raitoiro said in General Recommendation Thread:
"Last and first idole"
That tittle and cover would fool anyone then. Thanks.
-
Does anyone of you have recommendations similar to "Bibliophile Princess", "The White Cat's Revenge as Plotted from the Dragon King's Lap" or "The Extraordinary, the Ordinary, and SOAP!"?
If possible without harem. -
The closest title I can think of is The Tales of Marielle Clarac series, it is most similar to Bibliophile Princess, it is my personal favorite of all the current J-Novel Heart titles, it makes me laugh a lot, and it has plenty of misunderstandings without dragging it out to a painful degree.
They just started translation of V2 about 2 weeks back, also V1 of the series will be going into the vault on April 15th, if you decide to give it a read.
Edit: also not too similar to the series you mentioned but you should definitely give Tearmoon Empire a read if you already haven’t. It is sort of an opposite White Cat’s Revenge in the sense that it isn’t about revenge but “salvation”...
Sorry but J-Novel Club does not publicly comment on any potential licensing decision or acquisitions.

I just finished the first volume of The Tales of Marielle Clarac series and I have to agree, it is truly great!
Thanks for the recommendation. And I am definitely looking forward to reading Tearmoon Empire. :D -
Hello again, I just finished all avaible volumes of Lazy Dungeon Master. I get some Realist Hero taste from it. Is there any other series from JNC or not, which similar to those? Smart guy, building stuff which a little comedy in it?
8 parts, 8 weeks to read a book, than binge read the same book within' 2 hours again.
Myne: Did we deceived him?
Ferdinand: Indeed we did.
Myne: *surprised myneface -
@hopebestman Try out Der Werwolf.
-
@hopebestman maybe arifureta: from common place to world's strongest
-
@hopebestman - I enjoyed the 2 volumes of Strongest Gamer: Let's Play in Another World from Slow Press. It reaches a good stopping point.
-
@HarmlessDave @jjch102296 @myskaros i will check those novels. Thanks for rec. Also when i am here;
I read 3 volumes of Bride Elf and that is not series i am looking for :D I am changing the novel so when i read i will write about is it good or bad.
-
@Clarys If you are still searching for more J-Novel Club Heart novels, I can recommend you Deathbound Duke's Daughter. I've read the first two parts and was really intrigued by it. Why don't you try it out?^^
-
@Clarabelle
Hey :)
Thank you very much for your concern.
I have also already seen it, but the problem is I really don't like (Reverse) Harem. I have already tried “My next life as a villainess: All routes lead to doom!“ and read the first LN. But I don't like all this fighting for one girls/boys heart und snapping after her attention.
And it seems, this is very similar, isn't it? -
@Clarys Nah, I wouldn't say that. I think this novel is much more exiting.xD The whole alchemy and dungeon/ruins exploring is definitely something new. I personally really like it.^^
-
@Clarabelle
Okay, thank you. Then I will try it out. :)
So the LN doesn't focus on Harem that much? -
@Clarys It has the "reverse harem" tag, so I assume it is such a novel. But since the novel only has two volumes and it is not clear, if it will continue, I doubt you will notice much of it. Besides, the protagonist is still a child at this point. And like I already said, the absolute interesting world buildung, including the alchemy and magic part, plus the dungeon/ruin exploring etc. make up for it. I'm not too fond of harem stories either, although it doesn't really bother me much, if it's reverse harem.
