I bought bookwalker read some but its so hard. Some say amazon kindle can do that, but i cant buy it cos region thing i dont understand.
Since anime is finished, can anyone suggest me from where should I continue light novel ?
I'm looking for stories that are complex and requires deeper thought to fully unravel. Stories that have a lot of potential for deeper analysis.
You can also recommend the specific aspect that you found complex or well done in terms of the characters, their motivations, the storyline, potential for reread etc...
I've already read Re:Zero, Mushoku Tensei, Hakomari, Zaregoto, Kara no Kyoukai and Ascendance of a bookworm
This novel is called "Henkyou Mob Kizoku no Uchi ni Totsui de Kita Akuyaku Reijou ga, Mechakucha Dekiru Yoi Yome Nandaga?" I know that it has a light novel, I tried to find it on many websites yet nothing. Would appreciate a ton if someone help finds it and send a link.
Yeah that’s bout it and I just want something new to read after reading classroom of the elite and too many losing heroines recent releases
Every other isekai anime feels the same nowadays. Can you guys recommend something new and fresh?
I remember seeing a youtube video taliing about this book. Basically the main character had this childhood friends but over time that childhood friend became popualr and they became distant, and he makes his own friends, and maybe I think has a girl or a crush. Later in Highschool suddenly the old childhood friend come bakc and says he is a trans girl. I think the cover was of the childhood friend blone hair kinda short for a girl but I don't remember. If someone knows, please tell me
Basically as the title says, I forgot the title of a novel I have read long time ago. Would be grateful if somebody could help me. Here is the story:
Our main female protagonist is the second princess of a small kingdom. She and her sister were married of to the same king. In general, her sister is viewed as a saint, but she has a bad reputation, even before the marriage. Now she is seen as a spare that was just given away to get rid of. She has good relationship with her elder sister.
So, the story continues in that she was ‘locked’ in a cottage after marriage with a helper to take care of her. She sent away the helper and decided to change her life. She was tired of this life and decided to escape the castle, disguise as a boy and join a special unit corp/army.
There she meets a colorful unit of people with who she has fun. She likes everyone there, especially the captain who is actually a disguised king. They both don’t know about each others identity and only a secret ninja spy, who was sent by the king to spy on the female protagonist in case she does something that would be considered disaster for the kingdom to report.
As she is a girl, she helped the unit a lot in solving different cases. From one case, I think it was to get into the mansion of a bad man, through the vents as she was so small. ‘Disguise’ as a girl and etc.
Again, would be very grateful :)
I'm very interested in series that have Demons and angels in them, and was wondering what were light novels that included Christian elements such as these.
I have been reading and enjoying the Min-Maxing My TRPG Build in Another World Light Novels and I am currently through the first two and am slightly confused by the Afterwords. Are they alternate timelines or the future?
Ive read uptil the 157th lightnovel chapter and im wondering if anyone knows where i could find the rest of the translated chaptes are or what the current situtation with the translators is
I have read all of sololevling and Mushoku Tensei. I am currently on about chapter 104 of Regressing as the Reincarnated Bastard of the Sword Clan. I am also around 394 for Surviving the Game as a Barbarian. So far I definitely like Surviving the most of them all. Definitely like Surviving most and Mushoku a close second. Thanks
I have read a lot of light novels with the harem tag, but most of the good ones are from korea. My favorite one is "Pseudo Resident’s Illegal Stay in Another World", the MC is funny as shit, he isn't almighty and suffers with the different challenges he confronts and the world-building is good (the characters have personalities). Any good recommendations?
Hi, so I recently am reading the light novel of the reincarnated slime, and I love Milim. Milim is prolly one of my new favorite characters in all of fiction. Are there any other stories where the main character has a friend or something, that is insanely powerful yet immature/childish?
On a lot of the novels on there I often see a simple 'updated' tag on some books. I legit have no idea what is updated and was thinking that there should be a log or notice of what is updated like grammar or updated chapters? I legit have no idea and was wondering what it signified. Anyone have any info on this at all?
I'm currently on Volume 7 of 86. Is it okay to read Eighty Six Alter now? Will it have spoilers for the upcoming volumes?
Ok so what is up with the saint? Is she actually evil? Why is everyone seemingly hypnotized by her?
Hey all! Just finished reading Yakuza fiance and loved it. I know it's not a light novel, but does anybody know any that would be similar? I've read 7th loop, Raeliana, Apothecary diaries. I love a strong female lead and preferably they'd be a little older. Thank you!
İt doesnt have an official english license. İs there any other source on the internet to read ?
i've just realized that YP not translating all konosuba light novel,what happened is the other spinoff don't sell that well? but i feel like konosuba spinoff still will sell more than some LN series that YP translating now
Hello! Currently I'm mostly buying digital lightnovels from Kindle... (My physicals tend to be from B&N).
Does anyone recommend any other sites that would be better to actually find new lightnovels?
Most of the time Kindle descriptions don't even specify if it's the manga or lightnovel (should I look at the file size? Any other recs?) It does not allow for easy searchability of more lightnovels of the same genre.
For reference most of the time I'm looking for stories more on the Josei/ Shoujo / BL side of the spectrum.. and those don't really seem to be captured on the lists in the sidebar. I don't see TokyoPop LoveLove for example either..
