I've only listed bl novels that I have not read. So, I will delete those what I've read and put them in my novel lists... more>> according to their tags. I will also rank them in order what novel will I read first. You can comment some newly translated bl novels as of Dec 2020. I'm looking for new series.  <<less

hhh so difficult to find good ones QAQ... more>>

comment your thoughts and/or suggestions~

update: I'm back and ready to update the list! harem bl seems to have gotten more common/popular in general, wow! <<less

I LOVE fluff romance. Most of novels that I read are heartwarming story. I dislike dog-bloody drama. A bit drama is okay, but if whole story filled with unnecessary drama and s*upid misunderstanding, I can't read it. So these are my list of fluffy romance.... more>>

 

The list's ranking is not ordered. 

I don't too like ancient China setting, so all of these are modern day! 

I'm open if you have recommendations!! :) <<less

NOTE: Some comments do not reflect the complete novel. I will try to update them as I read.... more>>

List of BL novels with an obsessive/possessive/yandere male lead that I enjoyed.
Sorted roughly from most obsessive to least obsessive (I used to have a bias for QT novels, though). Favorite to least favorite where I couldn't decide. Numbers 60~75 are mostly just there to fill the lower ranks, and numbers 76~91 are novels that need more updates or that I'm planning to read. <<less

Instead of OP CEO or arrogant and domineering ML, these precious MLs need coaxing and feel inferior to the MC (or vice versa in some cases). EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE SO PRECIOUS AND DESERVE THE WORLD!! Most of them are insecure and afraid their partner will leave or no longer like them due to their flaws/illness/background/past/etc. There is a lot of pampering, coaxing, understanding, and healing in these beautiful stories. I've tried to put similar setting/vibe stories together so the list is easier to navigate. BG in the first half and BL in the second half :)... more>>

Recently I've seen more recommendation lists on this trope and I'm SOOO HAPPY that these beautiful stories are finally getting some appreciation!! I'll do my best to also find some less popular gems for you all to read >.< Please also comment any stories you would like me to add!

*also, I know I sorta write more for some novels, less for others. It honestly depends on my mood & memory of the novel. So don't feel discouraged about the ones I write less on, they're all well written books :) I also try to only include novels that are 4 stars and above, unless I REALLY think that the story deserves wayyyy more. <<less

1. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ : definitely recommend
2. recommend
3. kinda recommend 
4. -- : undecided

women who are the more dominant ones in the relationship physically or emotionally and the men who adore them... more>>

where the ml would literally follow the fl into hell if they asked  <<less

Just BL without the stereotypical overbearing, abusive, rapist ML. Naturally they also have to be good reads (though this is subjective) to make this list. ... more>>

If you feel like something should or shouldn't be included in this list, let me know and I'll review the story in question. The books are in no particular order. <<less

A list with some of the best BL novels you'll find out here on NU.... more>>

 It's a mix of historical, modern, futuristic, interstellar or even apocalyptic novels. My list recommends novels that are rich in romance with a good plot to follow up. Some have more serious plots while others are just there for a hearty laugh or cuteness overload. 

[ Relationships between MC n ML are healthy and equal {we don't stan toxicity under this roof!} ] -expect minimum misunderstandings.

look forward to QT, World hopping, Transmigration, Rebirth, second-chance even body swap... //0w0//

these novels definitely won't disappoint, only please remember to check tags (a must!) and even reviews from other readers...also if a novel is not to your taste please refrain from leaving low ratings *>-<

let's interact thru the comment section! you can suggest some of your fav BL's that are not on the list and ill gladly check them out! Follow my list to be updated every time I add novels to the list (usually a bunch at a time) 

Thankyou! <<less

Based on my personal scale of yandere intensity.... more>>

NOTE: THE RATING IS NOT A RATING OF THE NOVEL, ONLY THE INTENSITY OF THE YANDERE. 

This list includes all the books I think are solid 7+/10 and very intense male yanderes. BL included. Most novels are completed. Spoilers beware! 

The Scale:

1: All bark no bite

7: Glaring red flags, but red is my favourite colour. 

9: Perfect intensity. The most intense just below abusive imo. 

10: My friend, if you don't get out of there, imma call 911 to drag you out of there. Somebody get a restraining order pls im begging.

Please note: These are intense yanderes, there will be toxic and abusive relationships. Please read the tags for TWs. <<less

I want them as my husband. PERIODT

If you're looking for bl without all the abuse. Please note that not all novels will be fluffy or without uncomfortable content, because this list instead focuses on the main couple and how they interact with each other (i.e. healthy main romance).... more>>

Does not include: unequal power dynamics like student/teacher or in*est, pe*ophilia or predatory age gaps, manipulative or controlling love interests, r*pe/s*xual assault/dubious consent, physical or emotional abuse

List will update as I get far enough into the novels to be sure of their content. 

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or disagree and I will rethink my additions!

edit: sorry for any confusion about the list recently! updates to the list system knocked out my description and I hadn't noticed <<less

This list contains love that transcends two lifetimes through characters that travel through time and space to be with their loved one.... more>>

- involving lovers that get another chance, this list includes characters (eg. ml or children) that go back in time to meet and save their beloved (eg. fl or parents) from unfortunate situations. 

 -includes Non-strangers that transmigrate together and continue to associate with each other to eventually fall in love; characters from different time periods that fall in love; lovers that continue to love and find their happy ending after rebirth; multiple transmigrations; and lovers that eventually travel to the mc’s original world to stay together 

- includes lovers separated by time and dimensions 

- won’t include world hopping, quick transmigration novels with a system administrator unless both mc and ml have systems that relay tasks related to each other falling in love  <<less

I've gotten addicted to these for some reason so I'm going to put it here in case I want to reread and for other lovers of the same theme as well.... more>>

I beg thee translators to translate more of these, but please--- the good ones are so way off better than the bad ones. The difference is like heaven and earth. Please choose the good ones T_T <<less

A series of BL novels with varying plots and subgenres! Fluff, unlimited flow, xianxia, historical, quick transmigration, transmigration, supernatural, slow romance, comedy, mature (in terms of thinking and actions), etc. ... more>>

Minimal amount of angst and dogblood (if there's even any) (￣▽￣* )ゞ

Edit: I may have taken a bit of a liking towards angst nowadays... only a little. ( ˘︹˘ )

BL's I REALLY LIKE based on my own preference, and *coughs* I don't like s*upid MC's (*￣▽￣*)

Personally, I like MC's and ML's to have equal footing in terms of their overall personality, I don't like delicate shou tropes that much. 

And in my own, very subjective opinion, these novels have really good plots, or at least most of their logic is in the bounds of normal human logic. 

Note: Novels are not sorted according to rank, just depends on what I remembered first _(:3」∠)_ <<less

I mostly like BLs which have action, fantasy or adventure genre in them. I haven't read all of them, and just added whatever pleased my eyes. 
So, if you have that kinda taste, then enjoy! ... more>>

The list is not properly edited by the best and all, because I'm lazy.......yeah. <<less

Romance with happy endings ♡ These are mostly short novels with no more than 100 chapters (not anymore*) I decided to make an account because I tend to forget the title and only remember the plot (￣ ￣|| ) Hope you'll like 'em too! Let me know if you have any suggestions that I can read. I prefer to read completed novels with happy endings. Thanks in advance! ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡ ... more>>

I was trying to sort the novels based on how I like it or the fluffiness xD BUT since it's getting quite long, those newly read novels are already in page 2 onwards xD <<less

let's discuss below about the novels !!! (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ i just really want more people to at least know these stories BECAUSE i think they deserve more... more>> attention because some barely even reach 1000 reads  !?!?!,,, and also please suggest on the comments since i'll be adding on this list daily :D <<less

Our motto here is "scare the ghosts and troll the folks." ... more>>

Yaoi/Shounen-ai novels within the horror genre but with comedic spice. Works well to acclimating yourself in reading horror during night/dawn when the mc's and ml's help you go through with it lmao. Really changed my outlook on the whole horror genre. <<less

If you want to look for books with romance theme and has been fully translated then these will be good starting list.... more>>

All of the, definitely have Happy Endings! I can’t bear to read the whole book just to be tortured with a sad ending...so I will for certain not recommend anything that is not remotely anywhere near a HE.

These are novels that I have read and enjoyed. There are not presented in any particular order <<less

These are the stories which I've read and loved. The plots and characters are A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.!... more>>

It's a mix of BL and BG
There is no particular order for my list. Everything is so good!!!  Check them all out as I keep adding the stories to the later pages

I'm always open for recommendations.

Enjoy! <<less

These are all CN novels that I would like to recommend. I finished reading some of them and still finding the right time to read the other novels. I find them quite interesting with the description and reviews so I decided to share it will all of you. No ranking order.... more>>

Enjoy reading! <<less

This list is full of fluff. No angst, just fluff. Reads that made me smile and giggle all day long to the point of dying from diabetes. LOL. I've finished reading all of these, and are definitely highly recommended! Enjoy :)) PS: This is in no particular order. ... more>>
