I'm looking for a novel that satisfies the following:
- Main Character is not human, be it an inanimate object or monster. Can be born a monster, play as a monster, or be reincarnated as a monster.
- If not a game, then the main character should not be too heavily human. For example, Slime Tensei's main character is way too human, but Kumo doesn't feel human even in earlier sections of the novel. If the main character is roleplaying a monster, then this does not apply.
- Romance is acceptable only if there is one love interest.
Edit: -The protagonist should be nice. Jerk mc's or those that overreact is not my cup of tea.

I'm not that into crude and lewd jokes.

I've read:
Slime Tensei
ELLC
Overlord

Kumo Desu Ka
Tree of Aeons
Iron Teeth
Apothesis

Taint by Black Blood Tales is nice. The writing is ok in the first chapters and becomes quite good as the story goes along. It’s a solid read. It’s a bit hard to describe the plot without spoiling it as it is a slow and long read, but it’s basically about a young child who ends up losing her humanity, and all her social skills, as she’s tossed into a demon-filled dungeon for some reason unclear to her, killed, turned into a demon, and spends the rest of her formative years alone in a dungeon of murder.

Yeah, I'd recommend Fork This Life! It was one of the first SH novels on here and stuck around on trending for quite some time.

There are plenty of different things I can recommend, but many of them are not on this site. I recommend:
The Snake Report
Chrysalis
and Overseer
If you dropped the nice protagonist and lewd jokes, I would add more but...

Im not sure if this suits your taste but what im writng is the MC reincarnated as a cat.

Tho its not complete and is only in the first chap

The second chap is almost up

If you want a completed or long novel, I suggest

1. Raising a Fox Consort
2. Story of a careless demon
3. Villain Heal: The villainess's plan to heal a broken heart (completed)

Overlord!! How can you miss this novel??

Ainz sama will haunt you
This kinda negates Overlord:

- Romance is acceptable only if there is one love interest.
Edit: -The protagonist should be nice. Jerk mc's or those that overreact is not my cup of tea.
And, no, he is not a nice MC. He is, by definition, a monster who has no attachment to humans or to any form of morally acceptable goodness for that matter....If that even makes sense.
