    This question came to me after reading another question posted a while ago.

    How many novels on your reading list are you actually reading? Did you just add it and forget it? Or maybe you dropped a novel but are too lazy to remove it? You have finished them through raws? Or maybe the translator dropped it and you are just hanging in there?

    In my case, most of the Chinese novels are already finished through raws. And most of the Japanese novels are their just for show. Lol. Novels with female MCs are in various stage of completion. And Korean novels?


    You need to pay for raws... So naah.




    So what about you all?

    I think i'm at most reading 20-30% RIGHT now, but all in all, counting ones i've completed or dropped, or caught up with a dead translation, the number is probably closer to 60%. I got 1 reading list, and i add stuff to it very generously, so a lot of the novels in there are just there because i once thought they looked interesting and added them, and then just forgot about them.

    i read about 5% of em actively, some because im waiting for chapters to stack up, some are abandoned by tl, some have super slow release dates so they go into excuse number one, and others are finished but i just havent bothered to move em to a separate list.

    I have 3 list
    -Reading
    -Backlog
    -NSFW
    I read all the stuff on the reading list, if I read stuff in the backlog then i promote it to the main list.

    At the moment the number of novels in my backlog list is equal to the number of novels in my reading list

    Easily got around or over 100 but majority of them have been dropped but I still read 22 that are being kept up on.There are a few I am back logged on either because I got bored or lost track of them too.

    I'd go with maybe half give or take 10% or so. Quite a few I've finished with raws, others I read when they get translated. Some of the novels are there to look at later or I've completely forgotten about them and need to try to read them before they get licensed and taken down for good. Some are completed and I just need to take the time to look at them, but I always seem to forget about them.

    10-20%. Novels eventually get tiring. Most of ones I don't read anymore, I still hope they might get interesting again.

    I read all of them. Not my fault that a few there and there are slow as fuck to update so I only read once a year.

    I don't use the reading list. I have some novels added to it sometimes but I don't actually use it to track them:cookie:

    Just see it yourself. Here's my public reading list. I actively read everything in the Reading list, I put novels that I prefer to batch read in the Preservation list, Batch Pause list is for long novels that I can't finish in a single sitting, Stalling list for novels I stalled, and Finished for novels I've finished reading.
