Novels that made me sweat my eyes and rampaging my house for tissues ....

Mostly short novels with heart wrenching plots.... more>>

Sometimes I wonder why I hurt myself to read such books but can't stop myself.

Rainy day reads... <<less

These are romance-focus novels that I have read from years ago. It may take some time for me to recall most of them, and I'd... more>> have to find their corresponding English names too.  <<less

Redemption is when you attempt to take/fix back the things that you throw/ignore before.

Are you an M? Like torturing yourself? Want to feel your heart turn sour?... more>>

This is the list for you :DDD

JK I'm neither an M, nor do I love pain, but I live for the pure and utter heartburn I get from these novels. Makes you feel alive.

This list isn't about actual smut by the way, it's just a list of super depressing, tragic novels.

Listed in order from most tragic to somewhat tragic.

By the way, since I'm a wimp and can't actually bear reading the really heavy stuff, most of these novels will not actually be centered around the tragedy and instead only contain bits of it. <<less

this list contains danmei novels that I personally like...

These are the bl novels that i'm excited to read or currently reading. The one i definetly recommend is 2ha and Qiang Jin Jiu! Beware... more>> that 2ha is more angsty than HOB and Qiang Jin Jiu is Enemies to Lovers with a political plot but protagonists do share the same loneliness. <<less

"I'm not really into tragic/sad BL novels, it's not my cup of tea"

read these or die :)

Complete novels that I've read & liked.

...but I still keep reading stories that end in tragedies! T-T ... more>>

Tragedies do not always have a sad ending or bad ending. But they are always very distressing.

I don't particularly like it when the protagonist struggled so hard to overcome so many obstacles and his (or her) end is unnecessary or undeserved tragic death. (Ooooh, if a main character dies, he (or she) must die with all the glory.)

I deal with terminal illnesses well, as they are always moving stories. T-T

Oooh, pitiful love stories and regrets... When they are a very moving story, they are just worth reading.

(Spoilers, spoilers are always welcome to calm anxiety. -_-) <<less

Female Lead novels, where the plot normally revolves around being reincarnated or reborn in the modern world.  This list also includes transformation or someone who changes who they used to be a better person.... more>>

This list normally revolves around modern day or empires and not ancient china kind of novels.

only reason why i would read these novels 

BL novels that I haven’t dropped mid-way that I at least somewhat like (tolerate). The novels are ranked in order of personal rankings which may... more>> vary from day to day, depending on what I see fit. Don’t get angry if your favourite novels aren’t at 5/5, lol. <<less

Mix of novels I would recommend reading with male MC... more>>

The order is random <<less

Novels with Badass٫cold female protagonist from really good to readable quality 

Stories of rebirth that i enjoyed reading. ... more>>

What i concider rebirth isn’t only the mc reborn in his own body, the mc being reborn in the same life even if it is a diffrent body is still rebirth for me anf not transmigration! <<less

I read all kinds of genres so this list will contain books that’s happy and fluffy as well as tragedy. Personally, I prefer to read books with completed translations but sometimes I will MTL those that are not. ... more>>

It depends on your mood which you like but this list is what I read and recommend! 

This list will get updated once a while when I finish reading a few books. I will also add in my own ratings and a short review.

PS. If anyone has any tragedy books to recommend, please comment!  <<less

Ecchi

Most are based in ancient china, with some contemporary romances that I really enjoyed!

Novels that involve tragic pasts and second chances be it in historical or modern settings. Characters are usually quick-witted, sharp-tongued and a little bit morally... more>> fraudulent. If angst is involved, the endings are nevertheless, very satisfying.  <<less
