    Hi, newcomer here. I’m generally fine with most genres except extreme horror and really smut novels. Hoping to get some post to do a finder for post. Unless someone can help me here.
    I think the description of the novel I was looking for was about some kid having to go the library to learn beginner magic because his magic turn out too powerful due to his golden finger. I think it was a fan fiction about Harry Potter but I honestly can’t remember.

    I tried making an account called CarburetorThompson as I often use, but I messed up the password because I'm technologically inept. Also, couldn't get password recovery to work. But I'm fine with that, I'm leaning into my new identity.

    I mostly read textbooks, but when my mind is rotten from reading all day, I look at some webnovels. I usually prefer medieval fantasy stories especially ones without the isekai.

    Hello people! I usually read whatever is good I guess, but I mainly gravitate towards xuanhuan, sci-fi and occansionally xianxia. English is my second language while mandarin (Chinese) is my mother tongue so I mainly read Chinese novels. Maybe I will help to translate a Chinese novel in the future but I am pretty lazy so that may only stay as a thought.

    Hey, y'all! I'm ClosetGoblin! I love listening to music and playing Minecraft. I usually search for yaoi on this site both because some of the books are really good, but some of the books are SO BAD. Not boring books. BAD books. I love reading bad books. I also like slow romance with sweetly written smut (it reminds me of how desolate my love life is 〒▽〒). Anyways, my favorite book is The Founder of Diabolism because, in my opinion, it's a great combination of romance and action. The characters aren't annoying (I hate annoying characters) and the book doesn't rely solely on smut. I've been lurking around the website for a while, but I've finally made an account and I'm excited to be part of the community! (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

    I can't believe I'm doing this 2 years later but.. anyway

    Idk why I chose EyeCandy as my name. It's probably because I always look at attractive men all the time but that's a story for another day.

    You can call me Candy :)) I'm candy made out of sriracha tho.

    I love the Romance genre. It can be mixed with any genre whether historical, modern day, sci-fi, vampires, fantasy, smut *wenk wenk* etc you name it. Just NOT HAREM/NTR


    Edit:

    The only Harem I'll probably ever watch is Naruto doing Kage bunshin no jutsu on Hinata

    Hello. Excuse me, my English is not very good. I am not a native English speaker.

    Name/Nickname: Nancy Drew.

    Hobbies/interests: I often read Asian comics (mangas, manhwas, manhuas) and other comics. I sometimes watch animes, animated films, movies and TV series. I rarely read regular books, and even less often I read Asian books.

    Genres and tags:
    Often: shounen, shoujo, fantasy, action, adventure, comedy, school life, gender bender, bromance, BL subtext, romance.
    Sometimes: josei, seinen, ecchi, harem, reverse harem, VRMMORPG, magical academy, psychological, sci-fi, time travel, isekai, fairy tale.
    Rarely: hentai, yaoi, shounen ai, slice of life, sports, drama, post-apocalyptic, xianxia, historical, horror, tragedy, anti-utopia, thriller, detective, black humor.

    At the moment, my favorite comics are "Dusk Howler", "The Dragon Master" ("The owner of the divine dragon: The Dragon Master"), "1/2 Prince", "Casearin" ("Carsearin", "Kalsearin", "Kalsarin"), "Cultivation Chat Group", "Reader", "The Devil King Is Bored" ("The Bored Devil King"), "Silver Demon King", "Eleceed", "Noblesse", "Queen's" (2003), "Transfer Student Storm Bringer", "Detroit Metal City", "At the End of the World to Love" ("Sekainohate de Aimashou"), "Y: The Last Man".

    My favorite books are "The Three Musketeers" by French author Alexandre Dumas and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" by British author J. K. Rowling.

    I also really enjoyed the books "Dusk Howler" ("더스크 하울러", 2009) by South Korean author Bak Taeseon, "The owner of the divine dragon" / "The Dragon Master" ("신룡의 주인", 2011) by South Korean author Bak Taeseon, "Game Master Mion" ("GM미온", 2006) by South Korean author Bak Taeseon, "Swallow Knights Tales" (2003) by South Korean author Kim Cheolgon, "The Founder of Diabolism" ("Mo Dao Zu Shi", 2015) by Chinese author Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, "Slayers" (1989) by Japanese author Hajime Kanzaka, "The Tale of Princess Kaguya" / "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" (10th century) by an unknown Japanese author and "The Tale of Ochikubo" (10th century) by an unknown Japanese author.

    I have read some excerpts from the novel "Dusk Howler" and I have not read the novels "The owner of the divine dragon", "Game Master Mion" and "Swallow Knights Tales" because these four books cannot be read for free on the Internet, but I really like these four books because I really enjoyed the Korean readers' feedback on these books. I really want these four books to be translated from Korean into English and find many readers in different countries of the world.

    Hey everyone!
    Name: username is ac03, but you can call me Abi, Bibi, Bb, Ac, or Beaux. Any pronouns are fine.
    Hobbies/Interests: A lot I have adhd so it tend to pick up a lot. I’m also a pretty creative person. My main ones are music(listening, singing, writing, producing, playing guitar and drums)(fave genres are kpop, emo, goth, pop, and r&b but I listen to a bit of everything), drawing/painting, history, reading manhwa/webtoons and webnovels,
    Fav Genres/tags: I am a sucker for romance fantasy. But I also especially like revenge stories. I usually look for josei/shoujou/shoujoai/yuri stories. Also I prefer stories with female protagonists. Also I love a romantic lead who’s super soft for their s/o.
    Fav Novel: Under the Oak Tree. It’s popular for a reason. Maxi is my favorite protagonist. She’s so interesting. I love how the characters in this novel are so well developed and written. They are realistic and I love it. Maxi was unfortunately ab*sed by her father. But the way she doubts herself and those around her is very similar to real accounts from victims of ab*se so I appreciate that. And her character arc and gaining strength has been so good. I’ve really been rooting for her and love seeing her gain confidence and strength. Riftan is a great lead. He’s well developed too. He’s tough and stubborn but really cares about maxi and is soft for her. And I love how the two compliment but also differ from each other. And I love seeing how they grow together and slowly learn about and understand each other a bit better. Also I love the wonderful and healthy platonic relationships in the novel. Plus on top of the incredible plot and characters there is also some spicy scenes so that’s a nice bonus.
