Web novel sites
Go ahead and browse for something.
Royal Road (RR)
RR is mostly trashy fantasy and some sci-fi. Heaps of litRPG. Anyway some shit that varies from okay to based. Read the tags and reviews yourself.
Archive of our own (AO3)
More likely to have lewds. Many posted by anons from /scaly/ and /hmofa/
SoFurry (SF)
Also more likely to have lewds and is furfag focused so none of that humanform nonsense.
Scriblehub (SH)
Dumping ground for pretty much everything.
Spacebattles (SB)
High functioning autists only. Old school forum for sci-fi/fantasy writefags.
Amazon Kindle Unlimited (AK/KU)
Many books from Royal Road do deals with the devil and stub their web novels to self publish on Kindle Unlimited. You can get a free trial for a month and cancel if you are desperate enough and can speed read. AK for regular Kindle revocable license and KU for the subscription.
Independent sites (Link)
Only the most based Giga Chads host their own site.
Big list of books
Reborn as a DRAGON
RR, KU
Pretty based. Isekai but author could have cut that out without affecting the story. Starts from egg hatching to fighting eldritch horrors. Murderhobos a continent.
Stubbed/Ongoing isekai human to scalie
Shade Touched
RR
Follows a sapient cat-like lizard member of a species that isn't sapient. Eventually befriends humies and magic and pants. The author will never finish it, was comfy while it lasted.
Hiatus forever always nonhuman
Vainqeur the Dragon
RR, KU
Non-Sexual but a very fun read about a stereotypical fantasy dragon and his unwilling head of personel.
Stubbed isekai comedy multiple protags
The Dragon And The Author

Ongoing (slow as fuck) human to scalie
Chronicles of the Amber Dragon
RR
Girl wakes up in an egg. Isekai and litrpg. Is pretty comfy
Hiatus forever isekai human to scalie litrpg
Emergence
RR
Science based dragons. Lone survivor of expedition ship to monster island, befriends dragon, teaches dragon English, dragon rightly points out English is retarded. Dragons are fucking smart. Author has finished his rewrite and is posting 2 chapters a week for the new 1st volume.

Stubbed/Ongoing (soon™) isekai human to scalie anthro eldrich horrors
The Princess's Feathers
RR, AK, itchio
The Lemur Princess (she/her) gets teefed to a feathered dragon. It's steampunk/Victorian era instead of the usual medieval fantasy. 100% Furry.
Hiatus furry to scalie Victorian era fantasy
Ashlani's Reincarnation
RR
Guy gets killed and reincarnates as a JP dilophasaurus and has to litrpg to the top through blood gore and viscera.
Ongoing native isekai litrpg saurian lizard human to scalie gore
The Shining Wyrm
RR
She is a very long dragon in this slice of life. The authors thinly veiled fetish starts as soon as chapter 2.
Ongoing always nonhuman comfy light comedy
The Dragon Heir
RR
Female human to dragon LitRPG where she definitely embraces the monster. Human form is only wanted so she can see her father. The way the author writes the feeding scenes is borderline pornographic. Vol 2 reintroduces human form, but she acknowledges it as weaker than dragon form. I'll keep you posted if it starts sucking. Update: Humanform is tolerable, dragon is let out regularly.
Ongoing humanoid to scalie litrpg
The Saga of Vivex
RR
Female lizard/saurian brutal survival weak to strong story. Not isekai or litrpg!
Ongoing non-human lead saurian lizard

Tags pending.
Making things right

SFW Slice of Life human eastern dragon
Death claws for you
SO, AO3
Silver-tongued Wastelander manages to negotiate a deal with a female alpha deathclaw, but his charisma stat may have been a bit too high and his persuasion low as she expects much more from him than this deal.

Sonnie's Dulling
SO, AO3
Immediately after the events of episode 1 of 'Love, Death and Robots'. Sonnie finds herself being transported to another facility where things are looking up, but on the way there, she encounters a human and despite her "edge" she finds herself drawn to the man.

A Benevolent Evil Dragon
RR
Male isekai into dragon progression fantasy. Dragons age and develop into being eldritch abominations, starts off thinking his mother is horrible and saves a small group of magically deformed humans from being eaten by him and his siblings, but forced to take care of them himself when his mother disapproves. Act 2 has MC and one of the humans he saved off solo adventuring together.
reincarnation isekai human to dragon too many limbs dragon mom's a milf
Kin of Jörmungandr
RR
Also space folding snake progression fantasy about gaining gaining sapience and emotions to hide author's thinly veiled vore fetish. Author confirmed to hate humamform so not gonna happen when MC starts hanging out with surface dwellers.
Tags pending.
Not Your Usual Magical Girl
RR
Female forced to change into dragon, then returns to earth in humanform after 1000 years... But MC changes back to Dragon almost every combat and sometimes out of combat enough that I found it worthwhile.
Tags pending.
The Snake Report
RR
Human to snake isekai litrpg with an instinct headmate like Draka but instead of fighting each other they cooperate but also get more insane as the story progresses. MC at one point wishes he could settle down with a snake wife at a farm estate and just watch their grandkids.
Hiatus forever litrpg human to snake
Razag
RR
Human hatches as a dragon but can't remember much. He got no litrpg numbers so deadbeat parents drop him off in the woods and pretend it's not their problem. Slow pace, short chapters and weekly chapters so it'll be a few years.
Ongoing litrpg reincarnation isekai weak to strong human to dragon
Hunter or Huntress
RR
HFY guy gets portal isekai'd into a world with human sized anthro dragons and large regular dragons, trouble and shenanigans ensue including laying one of the Dragonettes.
Tags pending.
Learning To Fall
RR
Another story in the same universe as Hunter or Huntress, without the human this time. Dragonette gets shipped off to the capital to work due to financial issues but their Dragon transport is ambushed by bandits and crash lands on an abandoned floating island with no way off.
Tags pending.
Song of the Dragoons
RR
MC turns into a dragon in chapter 5. She joins a newly founded knighthood order alongside her sister in hopes of finding a cure. MC figures out how to turn human for limited periods early on, but the human form becomes less and less human as the instincts settle in. Dragons have a high degree of autonomy and are considered a normal part of society. There's a debatably autistic they/them in MC's party, but none of the usual pandering surrounding that.
Wasn't Reincarnation OP?
RR
Parody of isekai tropes, but taken seriously enough. Has litrpg pandering, but mostly ignorable so far if that's not your thing. POV swaps between the two MC's. An isekai'd human ranger and his formerly human isekai'd lizard companion who sees the new body as an upgrade. Author might be /ourguy/ based on some of the latter's comments.
Burden of a Fire Dragon
RR
Fire dragon gets kidnapped and forced to area fight while sharing room with an OW_THE_EDGE emo black dragon. Her naivety eventually warms his heart (THE_DARKEST_PLACE_I_KNOW) enough for them to team up and escape together, the story then follows them working their way back to the island her clan lives on. Notable contents: Apart from one nation, the world is run by various Dragon Supremacist civilisations with humans being a segregated class at best. Has elements of progression fantasy, torture/suffering and our protags are not always good (unless your name is misanthropnanon).
Re: Dragonize
RR
Hiatus forever with litrpg. Guy isekai'd into baby dragon works with fellow isekai spiderfriend to survive and fight an ant apocalypse.
Why Did It Have To Be Red?
SB
Guy isekai'd as red dragon hatching, retreats from the cave and submits before the first adventurer party he finds. They then decide to warn the kingdom of the threat his mother and siblings will pose to save his own hide and figure out a way back to previous life.
They Are Smol
RR
Humanity get's discovered and uplifted by galactic empire consisting of big nagas, big feathered dinos and big werewolves (2/3 ain't bad), shenanigans ensue. This is a 1,400 page shitpost, don't say I didn't warn you.
Unreviewed
Shit found with scalie references in the description or cover image but unread. Might be good, might be mediocre, not actually scalie focused or have humanform. Who knows.
