    for me it was from mangas. i used to read manngas online, then i found out some of them had originated from novels but mistakingly went to a fanfiction site. after that i found some translations on a forum. and have been a lurker for years.

    I actually stumbled on this site by accident, I don't even remember what I was doing/looking up at the time but once I found this treasure trove, I stayed for the lovely novels and have been here ever since lol

    A friend liked reading things on wattpad and for some reason (i forgot why), i ended up copying her and trying some things on wattpad since i had no idea where to try other than there. Someone else who was reading novels, and idk how it happend but she also told me that if i want to try novels i should try overgeared (im not even sure what im writing, my memory is a mess) because i complained to her that everyone dropped things on wattpad. And i think that i either got the page with overgeared on novelupdates or found later about it while searching for overgeared.
    Writing this made me realize that my memory is a mess since im not even sure how much of what i said is right (overall it should be right..) and i was reminded that im going overboard with details..

    I was reading a manga and reached the end of the scanlation some time ago, but I heard there was a novel version, so I searched for it, and found NU.

    Google sensei enlightened about this site when I was looking up a specific novel, forget which one. But I lurked and I lurked until I could lurk no longer due to the number of novels being updated on the site being more then I could keep track of myself.

    Was reading Tales of Demons and Gods manwha, and a comment linked the NU site. That opened the floodgates. Still took me like half a year to make an account to keep track of everything.

    When i was reading BTTH manga, i often found myself on cliffhangers, then i found out about it having a novel so i started reading it, until i read more and more novels to the point that it became a very good time passer for me

    Personally I found NU by googling for the source material of some of the manga I read which fortunately led me here. It took me two years to finally make an account though.
