The bl novels that have good stories *only from the novels I read before*

This list consists of a whole lot of amazing romance novels. There will be many genres and also have historical and modern stories mixed in here.  Descriptions will be added to novels when I have time ... more>>

It will organized with completed novels first then updating ones. For both categories it will always be HIGHEST to lowest RATING.

Any novels that are still updating will have a completed MTL version cited. 

***This list will be updating frequently***

Thankyou for stopping by! I hope this saves some stress in finding a good novel! :D

Part 2- https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/58955/

Korean Romance:

https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/43646/ <<less

These are all the Romances that come highly recommended and have been on my radar. Ended up being quite an eclectic mix though. Enjoy!... more>>

Note: Obviously this list will frequently change. The novels are later either moved to my "New Favorite Historical Romance of 2022" list or my "Put on ice" list.

Latest moves:

      - New Favorite HR: Who cares?; The Imperial guard’s revenge; Royal Road; Villainess won’t let the main lead break up

      - Novels Put on ice:  <<less

Ancient or Cultivation BL reads that will make you feel you didn't waste your time. This list is apart of a series classified by genre; other lists of this series include Thriller/Action, Fluff, and Modern/Transmigration novels. I tried to include both known and unknown novels to give more diversity to the reading list. Honest note--not a big fan of ancient settings. I've judged quality by reviews and seeming plot. ... more>>

So what is my subjective version of a quality BL of this list?

-No/little plot holes & well developed plot

Capable MC and ML  (not aggravatingly s*upid and knows when to respect each other but also put their foot down at the right moments). 

 -Lasting impression. I made this list by memory so if it's not on here...Chances are it's not worth remembering for the list.

-Makes me think--especially applies to this genre since I usually read this genre for the court schemes and palace intrigues. 

-Make me cry, laugh, yell or gasp. Perhaps all at the same  time. 

*****I have also included BL novels that have high expectations from me. The higher the expectations, the higher the stars. Hence, "***, **, *."

PS. Novels I've read are the only ones rated according to number. The rest (unread) are just listed randomly.

 PSS. There are always exceptions on this list that don't fit the requirements. But it's not bad to explore out of your comfort zone.  <<less

My favorite danmei/Shounen Ai/Yaoi novels ♡

A list of all the new shining stars of the genre.... more>>

PS: I'm an avid reader of HR novels but my initial list of favorites was getting too long so I simply divided it in 2. There's one list for the well-known classics & one for the upcoming shakers.  This here is obviously the latter. On that note, happy reading :)

Rating:   ❤️❤️❤️ To-die-for             ❤️❤️ Greatly entertaining                     ❤️ Enjoyable 

For more, my all times "Best historical novels" list is here: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/19039/ <<less

There are revenge and face slapping novels as well as slice of life novels and all kinds so go through these and find your types.... more>>

Novels with strong female leads , funny female leads etc etc.

Some female leads are op[overpowered] okay but I like them too there is nothing wrong with them being op because the novels are really good to read.
Some are strong from the beginning. some of them have character growth from being weak to strong and here strong doesn't necessarily mean physical strength its also their mental strength I am talking about.

Some female leads might be a little bit rude  but those books are entertaining and well done for a one time read And also for once I can read jerk female lead instead of a jerk male lead alright.

If anyone want me to add some books to this category please comment below will add it (✿◡‿◡)(✿◡‿◡)q(≧▽≦q)q(≧▽≦q). <<less

We all know that some novels when MTL'ed can kill a few of your brain cells,  but here are some that I'll willingly sacrifice them... more>> for.   <<less

Tired of rude, overbearing Gary Stus who don't know how to treat a girl (or any human) right? Look no further as this list comprises... more>> of male leads who truly love their female counterparts and know how to treat them right. <<less

✨Only the cream of the crop ✨ All the (mostly) historical novels which have proven to stand the test of time a.k.a survived  my endless nitpicking, fluctuating moods and multiple re-read. So yeah, pretty strong novels.... more>>

PS: The others novels I liked, but not enough to be featured here, are in my yearly "New Favorite Historical Romances" lists. <<less

Not in any order.

Pt 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/46662/

Pt 3 (slowly updating):  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/66164/

Includes: cliches done well, bl, heteros*xual romance, fluffy stories, fantasy, music, good OPness, adventure, s*x, smut, and/or gaming <<less

Romance stories that will make you want to laugh out loud and in general just give you that warm fuzzy feeling. Stay away angst, tragedy and hurt/comfort!... more>>

These are stories to brighten your day! It’s rather hard when you’re all done with the popular stories and don’t know where to continue. Because they don’t get lots of attention, so you have to dig deep to find some great treasures. You will find lots and lots of new things to read in this pretty big list. 

Will be waiting for your recommendations.

BG\BL

And would love to hear your thoughts about these books. <<less

Here are some completed bl novels with happy endings! I don't like sad endings so here are my recommended novels with "HAPPILY EVER AFTER". Basically, you can find everything except a tragic end.  *.*... more>>

MIND YOU SOME ARE WEIRD WITH NO SENSE OF STORY OR PLOT AT ALL!     ;P

All of these are, IMO, must-reads. Hands-down some of the best novels here. I've also included my own personal ratings and opinions of each of these novels. Well-written stories, great plots, characters, etc. I have relatively high standards for these to be my favorites, so these are all really high quality. I can't recommend them enough! coincidentally, all of them also have very high ratings (4.3-4.8)... more>>

Actively being updated. I haven't finished writing reviews/ratings for all of them yet, but I will in time. Meant to be ordered by highest personal ratings -> lowest personal ratings, but haven't had time to fix it yet. These are also my own opinions and feelings regarding each novel, so they won't be particularly eloquent, and you can definitely disagree. It's just me rambling.

Also added some ones I haven't read but will read and I know i will love. Feel free to recommend any danmei too!

...somehow, this also turned into a list of danmei I also want to read, not just a review of the ones I've read. I really can't control myself from looking for good danmei. Though, I'm sure I'll get to reviewing all of these someday <<less

This is the continuation for the lists of Gems I have read so far, that will shake up your mind and emotions. I hope you... more>> will enjoy it, as well as I did.  Thank you and good luck. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ <<less

My favourite QT BL novels!

This is my list of novels where in that particular world, there are Gers, men who can give birth and have a mark in the middle of their forehead/ in between their brows (in some settings the mark of ger is located either on wrist or on the arm and sometimes it is shaped like a flower). It's somehow the same with Omegaverse BUT without the pheromones and all, so no ABO. These mostly contains novels in ancient times and gers may be referred as 'bio', 'moye', or other names.... more>>

MC could be the gong or the ger one. They could be farming, doing business, cultivating, royalty, and many other things. Again, this is not omegaverse. There's no QT in here too (since I'm not really a fan of it hehe) - although there might be transmigration/reincarnation/regression or something, or maybe nothing at all.

PS: If you know some novels with gers that isn't here or found that some novels in the list isn't supposed to be there, feel free to comment so I could update it asap :>> <<less

Most promising novels that I'm excited to read this year! 《《o(≧◇≦)o》》
