I love to read stories with good plots, strong setting, realistic characters and smart, calm protagonists. Readers with same preference should be able to enjoy... more>> my list <<less

These are my favorite BL novels so far, those I enjoyed and recommend the most ranked higher on the list (I consider all MASTERPIECES)... more>>

I enjoy stories: that have a heavy plot, with lots of action, mysteries, near-death experiences (includes violence and gore), recurring genre - FANTASY; with complex, interesting characters, with their own internal & external conflicts, with both flaws and strenghts, not entirely evil nor good; that are intricate, intense, philosophical, psychological, that require you to think and from which you can learn sth new; NOT EXCLUSIVELY FOCUSED ON ROMANCE, but have a little bit of everything: angst, fluff, romance, s*xual content, humor, tragedy, death; HAPPY ENDING

The ROMANCE / COUPLE ASPECT: I enjoy ORGANIC, SLOW developing relationships, where the 'love' comes not (only) bc of physical attraction, but because of one's character. I enjoy deep, RESPECTFUL love. I DETEST abusive, imbalanced relationships filled with senseless drama, where the Seme/Gong is abusive, obsessed and too overbearing & the Uke/ Shou is highly dependent of the other, weak, overly femininized, brainless around the Gong. Smut is welcomed. I hate r*pe and repeated non-con s*xual content that goes overboard (I accept 1 or a few kisses that are non-con, but nothing more). The characters must exist outside 'the couple', as individuals, to have their own opinions and principals, problems and conflicts and interact with other characters form the story <<less

novels like debut or die!!

This is my personal top picks. If you can get the gist my taste through this list, please feel free to comment down below some of your recommendations too! Thank you and Happy reading!... more>>

What constitutes a good story for me?

PLOT. It must not stray away from its intended plot. No unrelevant arcs just for the sake of DRAGGING the story. THERE MUST BE SUBSTANCE. 

As much as possible, NO RUSH ENDING. The conclusion is the most important. If the story ended with some questions unresolve, the story is a failure. Open endings are acceptable, since it is closest to reality you can get. 

CHARACTER GROWTH. I believe it's one of the essential part of the story. I can stomach s*upid and naive characters, ONLY, if they showed character development along the way. 

LOGIC. No one wants to proceed on reading if they couldn't understand nor make sense out of anything. I'm willing to make an exceptions for WORLD-BUILDING. But there's what you call an out-of-this-world logic and an out-of-this-world s*upidity. The former I can accept, the latter, thanks but no thanks.

ENJOYMENT FACTOR. A STORY MUST EVOKE EMOTIONS OUT OF ME. If I couldn't feel anything while reading, then the writer failed to connect to their readers. Even if the genre isn't my cup of tea, it should be able to convince me otherwise. That's what it means by a good writing.

Thank you. (This list is subject to change) <<less
