Translated stories I like enough to recommend. I review them so expect some spoilers (I try not to spoil major events.)
(Please read the novels on the original translator's site which can be found on novelupdates!)

Type: Chinese Novel
Author: 奶香味哒
Chapters: 58
Description:
Jiang Miaomiao transmigrated into an apocalyptic book and became an insignificant cannon fodder. Considering all the brutal encounters behind, she decided to lie down and peacefully wait for death. She stayed at home and lived as long as she could.
In order to eat and drink well before she dies, she stored a lot of supplies.
Unexpectedly, one day a man broke into her house and was even more salty than her. He stayed and refused to leave. Her three boxes of potato chips were eaten up by that man. Her six boxes of river snail rice noodles were eaten up by that man. Her ten boxes of walnuts were also gnawed by that man!
Jiang Miaomiao was furious and decided to drive him out. So she secretly followed him in the middle of the night and saw him walk into a horde of zombies with a knife on his hands. He looked handsome as he easily killed those zombies.
The man came back and washed the blood stains. She was pushed to wake up while she was pretending to be asleep, Give me a spicy duck neck.
Jiang Miaomiao gave it to him decisively with both hands, Eat, its all yours!
A magical thing happened since then, her supplies Why is it continuously increasing?
Thoughts:
Not your typical apocalyptic novel.
The biggest difference is that there were no such things as abilities nor crystals. This is more of a slice of life+romance type of zombie novel with a dash of action. I prefer the hoarding and building of bases rather than the fight scenes, so I really liked this!
The female lead is very relatable. If you ever transmigrate, you'll probably relate to her as well.
FL was just an ordinary girl in the modern world, so obviously she wouldn't have the skills to kill zombies, know survival hacks, etc. I liked the fact that she considered suicide because tbh, who wouldn't? I know i'd choose death over life in that situation.

FL doesn't have any particular expertise, however despite that you would not think that ML deserves better. Regardless of her apparent flaws, she does her best to help when she can.
Opposite of her was ML, who is kinda OP kinda not. One thing I especially appreciate about him though is that he doesn't have a cold persona, I'm so over that!
The leads are a cute and funny couple. They have the "friends to lovers" sort of vibe because they like to banter and tease eachother. There were also some scenes that made me feel nervous despite knowing that they would survive.
So yeah, there are a lot of flaws, but it doesn't change the fact that I really enjoyed it. There is no complete translation though so you'll have to MTL it (understandable).
Overall a very nice story!

Vague spoiler: there will be a plot twist that could possibly be a deal breaker to you. I personally don't mind it, but to each their own. I'll spoil it in the comments just so you would know.
