      Horror science fiction with a bit of mystery. Like maybe Dead Space first and second game. Alternately like Blue Gender but that unlikely in either case .

        I would love to get more historical romance fantasy novels. It would be nice, if there would be a little bit of mystery in the mix too.

            @Clarys Then vote for the historical romance fantasy novels in the 'Licensing Suggestions!' forum. This way, we maybe have a chance to get more such novels.^^ Apparently it's My Fault That My Husband Has The Head of a Beast, Tearmoon Empire, Bibliophile Princess and The Tales of Marielle Clarac are already a good start.

              Where can I vote in the 'Licensing Suggestions!' forum? Do you mean to open a new topic with a suggestion or is there a special voting topic? :)
              Yeah, I read all of them except Apparently it's My Fault That My Husband Has The Head of a Beast. But I will definitely try it out if you can recommend it. Actually I am looking for new Light Novels anyway. Do you have any other recommendations?
              But although there is not much romance Ascendance of a Bookworm is also really, really great and furthermore I can recommend The Extraordinary, the Ordinary, and SOAP!. At the start, it is a little bit difficult to get in, but it has much potential and gets somehow really sweet and exciting. :D

                @Clarys It is a seperate forum. On the forum list look just underneath the Suggestions and Feedback forum, there is a Licensing suggestions forum, which has a thread per suggestion.

                  Yeah, I found that subforum.
                  But I don't see any voting possibilities.

                    @Clarys Just post a reply to the thread for the suggestions you want to support, or possibly up-vote the first post to the thread. To up vote you use the up-arrow that is at the bottom of each post after the reply and quote buttons.

                      Okay, thank you.
                      I thought there was a thread where you could choose genres like here.
                      But giving likes is also a possibility, you are right. :)

                        @Clarys Since the others already explained it to you, all I can add is to look in the 'Licensing Suggestions!' forum under the tags 'historical', 'romance' and 'fantasy'. You could also look for 'shoujo'. Then you will surely find novels of your taste you might want vote for.^^
                        And thank you for your recommendations. I'm already reading Ascendance of a Bookworm and like it quite a lot. I've also tried out Extraordinary, the Ordinary and Soap! right after the first part got released, but somehow I don't get warm with it.
                        Unfortunately I don't have any further recommendations for you, since you probably already know all shoujo novels licensed by JNC. The ones I would especially recommend still aren't licensed, but for some you can read the fan translations of the manga versions you know where (if you want to know what happens). They are called Earl and Fairy, Common Sense of a Duke's Daughter, Fake Cinderella, Kusuriya no Hitorigoto, Musketeer Rouge and Sugar Apple Fairy Tale.

                          Thank you very much for your recommendations either. I will definitely look through them.
                          And thanks for the tips. I really did not know that there was such a possibility to vote. :D

                              @Clarys You're welcome. There are quite a few shoujo novels in the 'Licensing Suggestions!' forum, which are really good. I hope, that JNC will license them someday. In fact, they recently released a hint, which could be one of them.^^
