r/Wattpad

Hey! I'm in the mood for a read, but I haven't found anything yet, so I decided to ask here. I'm looking for stories with few reads and low ratings, so feel free to leave your own stories here if you'd like. I'm looking for something fantasy or mystery, but I'm open to any genre! If possible and language isn't a major issue.

Also, I LOVE fanfics, so throw those in too.

I will read everything you send me, but seeing the amount, it may take me a while, hahaha. Now I won't lack for things to read!

hiiii!! i started reading wattpad in 2012, i stopped at 2020 i think because i feel like I've read all types of story lines. I'm trying to go back to reading and looking for some good reco that will make me addicted again hahahaha..

i really like serialsleeper stories back then. her stories are top notch.

Can you suggest stories with a virgin ML? I really love male leads who are innocent, inexperienced, and awkward when it comes to love hahaha. I find them so much cuter and more refreshing compared to the usual confident or womanizer type of MLs.

Hi,

I saw another post whether adults are in wattpad to read and I saw a lot of comments.

I am also an adult and some of the stories are so childish for me. Yesterday I started reading a mafia book because it had 65 million plus reads. When I started reading, it was a love triangle, and the fmc had feelings for someone who tried to assault her. I mean, why? 😭

So the adult readers of wattpad, what stories did you love reading?

What's is your favorite wattpad story and what is it about?

I LOVED Death is my BFF series soooo much but have read it 80 thousand times 🫠.

What is your favorite book and what is it about? Looking for some new reads. I don't mind some intimate scenes but pleaseeeeee not like every single chapter 😂. I started reading one the other day and it's like 99% just smut (no hate - I just also like to have plot with it). It also had some kink topics that made me severely uncomfortable with (I can give the title if anyone is interested in it). ​

More into the "undead, vampire, hades, romance" type things

It has happened to me in my novels that I’ve noticed someone always commented. At first everything was fine. But then I realized their comments were very flat or basically the same every time. It also caught my attention that they could ‘read’ a 5,000‑word chapter in two minutes and say ‘excellent chapter, I loved it,’ when it was a chapter about lack of love and depression.

Going back to the question… Has it ever happened to you that you have a reader who comments on your stories but doesn’t actually read them?

Looking for genuine sci-fi/fantasy R4R/C4C readers.

After finishing YCA, I’m taking the next couple months to promote my stories while also supporting other writers.

How I do R4R:

• I only take a few stories at a time (3 max)
• Mainly interested in sci-fi, dark fantasy, psychological, horror, dystopian, or cinematic stories
• Prefer books under 25 chapters
• I’ll always be honest if a story isn’t for me, and I’d appreciate the same honesty back
• If I don’t connect with your story, I’ll still support up to 5 chapters with votes/comments
• If I genuinely enjoy your book and continue reading, I’ll support the entire story
• You don’t have to force yourself to read my books if you don’t enjoy them — genuine readers matter more to me than forced engagement

I’m trying to build real connections with writers/readers who actually enjoy these genres instead of doing empty engagement trades.

Stories:
• Beyond the Parasites — dark sci-fi/parasitic evolution
• You Came Anyway — psychological revenge thriller
• Her Human: Mercury Skies — dark sci-fi fantasy/cosmic romance

If you genuinely enjoy my stories and know readers who might connect with them, recommendations/shares are always appreciated.

And if you want to follow me for future stories/projects, feel free to do so. I have a lot more planned.

Drop your story below if interested. Thank you.

For a long time, I’ve heard authors talk about how they get distracted from their writing by ideas for other stories. And I felt lucky to think that I was able to stay focused on a single project without getting sidetracked.

I’m writing a psychological thriller that blends several subgenres, and I’m currently at the exhausting stage of the second round of proofreading and editing.

But for the past two days, a new idea has started to take shape. I’m feeling that initial excitement again as the whole plot comes together bit by bit.

It’s in the horror genre (the one I originally write in), and I couldn’t help but sketch out a cover to have it in my Wattpad drafts!

We can't post Book Cover here to show you but I'm excited to finish so I can start this one !

Note: I'm french so I use a translator. I don't know if my post sounded like AI, it's the way I write...

hi, i’m looking for some subtle dark romance books if you can suggest me. but i want them to be very slow burn. and my problem is that i don’t want the theme to be mafia boss etc. i’m not very interested in that stuff. and i want the story to have a nice plot not just spicy stuff. i recently read the maddest obsession by anvesha, and i liked it a lot, but i can’t find similar books like that. also i’m new to dark romance so u don’t want very extreme stuff like torturing. if someone can help me that would be very nice.
(sorry if my english is bad, it’s not my first language 💗)

Do you like to read novels on wattpad? If yes what type of genre do you like... What are your preferences?
Chalooo batadoo mrkooo

Anyone interested in a mafia romance book with a kingpin who's a green flag dressed in a red flag, and a single mom on the run from her mafioso ex? Realistic plot, great plot twist and heartbreaking trauma? (The book is completed)

hey guys, i’m currently working on my first book- it’s called “the rook” by awlelele. it’s a mafia dark romance.

it is currently ongoing, i just completed the first 3 chapters. i would love to know your thoughts. any and all feedback will be appreciated. thank you

This book was recommended on this sub a few days ago. I read the prologues and the writing style alone was enough to hook me.

Initially, the story feels a little like your typical Wattpad rich people romance.. but as it progresses it stops feeling tropey and starts becoming emotionally layered - the family dynamics, emotional damage, backstories, and character motivations.

Avani is one of the most frustrating female leads I’ve read in a while. I both loved and hated her throughout the book. She’s arrogant, rude, selfish, strong and emotionally exhausting many times, very messy, but her diary entries changes how she is viewed underneath all that hate and anger. there is so much grief and loneliness. She hurts people and the author makes her face consequences for it .

Sammy and Viransh carried parts of this book for me. Sammy’s scenes were short but man he is probably the only honest character. He is selfless but not weak. Viransh is emotionally mature, selfless. The way he is with Avani , patient and loves her without conditions. Though I do want to see more of his individuality outside of just being you centered around her.

The story does gets better with every chapter. The last diary entries were brutal. The past of Avani and Denzel wrecked me but I knew from the start he wasn’t right for her. The other side characters like both of their families are interesting. Most of them are equally selfish and cunning, some are charming also its implied there is more to their story

All said, the book could’ve been better. The writing is beautiful, but sometimes it tries too hard to be beautiful. But I think its her first ever book. There were sections where the descriptions are dragged so much I started skimming. Some emotional scenes would’ve hit harder with simpler, sharper wording instead of metaphors. The beginning also could’ve been tighter because the real emotional and plot depth takes a while to fully kick in. And Avani in recent chapters  crossed the line from emotionally guarded into insufferently rude for no reason.

Overall though, this was way better than I expected it to be. Messy, emotional, frustrating, dramatic  but also memorable. It has layered characters, strong emotional tension. 

There is a sequel. I’m really hoping the author continues developing it well because the potential is absolutely there.

If anyone is contacted by them, it’s fake. If you can find their real information, don’t let them find peace. My writing may only be good enough for scams, but if they’re going to scam me and I find them, I’m going to make their life miserable in any legal way. You should do the same. I will delete my WattPad account in 48 hours. It was good knowing all of you.
