1. Added Novel OneDrive Index, a great site for downloading officially translated light novels in EPub without any ads, redirects or shortlinks, just simple direct downloads, with novels grouped in respective folders so it's easy to download them as a single, though the downside is that most of the folders have the copies of the same volumes just from different sources so downloading an entire folder makes you download more than you have to but they're all official tanslations nonetheless , Also a pro or con depending on how you look at it is that, as far as I could tell, they only host official translations only so you can't find fan translated novels and another thing is that they only upload in EPub format only but overall it's the best site for lightnovels I could find by far, despite also being a bit behind on releases compared to others, they do eventually update in bulk after a week or some
2. Starred jnovels and mp4redirects (since they are managed by the same guy) the former is just for info viewing and downloading while the latter is more of a forum but they are pretty much the same, its best to just use jnovels since mp4redirects needs you to register as a member to actually browse through it since it only allowed me 4 or 5 page views before it started forcing me to be a member to continue, Anyways they are good sources for light novels both official and fan translations, they also upload official manga in CBZ too, plus there are some webnovels of which chapters are merged into a single file, the cons are that as you might expect from most of these download sites, the downloading process is extremely cumbersome especially if you wanna download a lot of stuff at at once because of the redirect pages with one page with a captcha and countdown leading to the final page with the link but also has a countdown, weak adblockers wont work with the first site as it's anti adblock is pretty tough but more powerful adblockers work other than that it's good, although all their books a edited with a paged advertising the site and app but it's no problem as it's only after the contents.
3. Unstarred That Novel Corne since it rarely updates (last update was in April and it's basically a copy of Jnovels, It still has the shortlink redirects so it basically has no outstanding features to give it an edge
