Veronica8 if it isn't gaming or system then it's definitely a fanfic, or poor girl meets a chaebol and fall in love.
New novels are always the same (boring)
Name of the novel: Metalfield
Brief Summary: The peaceful Earth was suddenly invaded by unknown creatures. There was no salvation; human weapons doesn't work on them. Electricity died, society regressed-- the world completely changed. A twin, living in the middle of the woods, detached from the world, encounters these creatures. Watch as they uncover the mysteries hidden in this invasion. (tags: Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Sword and Magic, and a little Comedy)
Why I recommend it: this story will develop in a way you can never imagine. No mature tag, no sexual content, no self-satisfaction shit. Just pure story and awesomeness.

Try it? Dunno if you'll like it though
Eliza_Thornberry Eek. I didn't realise there was such limited choices.
darkstar123 There’s one novel I’m reading rn it’s called House of Horrors. It could be considered a different type of trope so I recommend it.

True, stories with these plots are oversaturated on here. They're popular, winning formulas. Otherwise, the top 100 powerstone rankings wouldn't be completely dominated by them.
There are some good stories that don't follow any of these tropes; however, they don't get the exposure or viewership they might deserve.
To anyone interested---
While it doesn't specify plot, maybe for Originals, Virtual Bookshelf can help locate some good stories.
If you click on the book icon next to each title, it brings you to that Webnovel, so you can read the synopsis to decide whether it interests you. At the very least, it gives you an idea of how well-written and thought out the plot and characters are, even if the arching theme (like cultivation) isn't original of itself. Hope that helps. Any feedback on the website is appreciated.
Book_Keeper first time clicking the bookshelf link. Props bro the page looks great.
Book_Keeper anyway you can add a category for demented novels and put mine in it?

darkstar123 Welp, may I shamelessly introduce you to a romantic novel with a dark twist and a fantasy/cultivation novel?

Edit : The fantasy one is a work in progress. I have never written fantasy before so...please proceed with caution...

Great work on the page.
I just have a small issue with it. The link to the webnovel page of Legend of the Gunslinger Mage actually pointed to Queen of Performing Arts :).
Keep up the good work!
Veronica8 yup, the sad and painful truth. I've read a lot of interesting novels with different ideas though, but after around ch 50-100, the plot will reconnect to the main skeletal work of Xianxia, system, gaming or makjang drama.

ImBloo Thanks so much for pointing that out! I noticed at one point that my copy and paste wasn't refreshing, so I tried reviewing the links, but it seems I missed some still. I also caught another link error today when I reviewed again; the links of several stories on the Surprise+Library section got put all into one! I don't even know how that happened since the underlining looked fine the other day; not to mention, it was all individually put in, so how it all got highlighted into one link is strange. WordPress be glitching on me.
I'll have to extra careful now; otherwise, redoing all the links again because they somehow got highlighted into one is a pain.
SouthToiletWizard Haha, anyone's story can go on the site. Just post that you want an assessment on this thread: https://forum.webnovel.com/d/19580-novel-assessments-reviews-empowering-writers-helping-readers
That's where the project idea started. :)
darkstar123 My novel doesn't have any of that, it's a supernatural action/adventure series! Maybe give it a look? It's called Canticle!
DO YOU REALLY WANT A NEW TASTE? THEN READ A NOVEL FROM A MAN FROM AFRICA TO TASTE AFRICAN FLAVOR, SUCH NOVEL IS (he is only after this body) THIS NOVEL IS NPT ABOUT GAME BUT ABOUT BETRAYER OF HIGHEST ORDER FROM A MAN TO A WOMAN WHO PUT HER LIFE ON THE LINE FOR HIM, AND HOW THE WOMAN TOOK HER OWN POUND PF FLESH

darkstar123 Read Lord of Mysteries. It is pretty well written so far. The pace is slow compared to most webnovels and pretty different level of story writing. Actually, all of that authors novels are pretty good. Like Throne of Magical Arcana. Pretty different from your usual webnovels. Don't know why his novels aren't more popular, guess people don't like slow pace and good story writing. They want insta power up OP mc slapping the shit out of everything and a heap of moronic characters throwing themselves infront of his palm to be slapped from all web novels i guess...
Please Do check out my entry in Contest 58
If you are looking for a romance, adventure, fantasy, weak to strong, you could try my novel. The beginning writing was a bit rough, but since I publish daily, I don't have time to go back and fix the older ones as of now. I started it as a romance, but then decided around chapter 100 that I wanted to break away from that a bit and do more adventure. It does still explore the different types of love that exist though.
Anyway, Macha's Journey.
Due to pirating, I did swap over to Patreon for the later chapters, but they are all still 1 a day free. I just disliked that my novel was being ripped off without my permission or my name being credited. As of now I have over 330 chapters for free.
BabyTanuki wow that's rough
darkstar123 Maybe you can search for different genres. Like realistic fiction perhaps.
