these are the high-quality BL translations that i've read from the Yaoi/Shounen Ai categories; the ones that I go back to re-read again and again~... more>>

Happy Endings, Fluff (or at least good feels), and Ass-kicking only! I don't really read many angst/modern drama novels. <<less

all the novels that have a special place in my heart - in no particular order. Keep in mind that I am a very very... more>> picky reader but I often go back and reread these wayyy too many times to be healthy. These are all just gems and must-reads you have to know- there’s angst (hardcore and softcore along with stuff that made me ugly sob with hiccups), there’s downright fluff(some of them literally bleed fluff), there’s some that I read just for the plot( YES PLOT IS A TANGIBLE THING IN MOST OF THESE) and some that are just orgasmically dopamine filled. Disclaimer- like 4-5 of these are pretty hardcore so if you’re uncomfortable with yandere, dubcon, kinda~in*est, bd*m (READ THE TAGS ALWAYS) etc Just take it with a grain of salt but like it’s only a few out of this huge list. I hope you enjoy! <<less

Note: All novels are rated above 4* and you can be rest assured to find some hidden gems here >o^... more>>

Okay, let's be realistic everyone~ ^v^ Human beings are not of the same mold, shape or size hence everyone's bound to have different preferences in some kind of form. Therefore, here I dutifully present to you my collection of novels that have had made the most impression on me and I can only hope that you may find THE ONE from this list.

PS. I personally love good quality reads that has a decent plot line and good character developments, as well as great translation work lest I have to destroy my brain cells haha Xd <<less

Novels translated by Chrysanthemum Garden translation team. For novels I've read, I put on higher list and give a bit comment.
Their translation is good and the pace also great. And many enjoyable story there.... more>>

Due to the limitation of the list, I delete some novels which has rating less than 4.1

Due to the limitation of the list, I put the short stories on another list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/35706/

> Totally recommended: super duper good great story that you'll regret if not read it
> Recommended: a good story with good plot and has certain charm
> Average: not a bad story but has an average plot or some generic stuff but still good
> Not my cup of tea: I wont say it bad, but it's not my taste. Feel free to try to read it tho :) <<less

As it says on the tin.... more>>

I am open to add novels to this recc list 

These will be of varying rates but I will not list novels below 4 stars ✨ 

Please follow the list of you liked it .

Novels that I've enjoyed. Some are fluffy, some are angsty, and some are just plain weird. I do apologize. The novels are not in a specified category (eg. World Hopping, Transmigration, Reincarnation, and etc.) Not in order, Will update when needed.... more>>

Hope you like them.  <<less

I've been reading chinese BL novels for more than 2 years now and this is the first time i'm creating a recommendation list lmao. I finally realised that with the amount of BL novels i've read if i don't make a list now i'll really end up forgetting about some of the absolute gems i've read here.... more>>

Anyways, here you go. Some of the high quality BL i've read. Most are completely translated and the ones that haven't been translated completely can be MTL'ed.

I will admit not all of these own me of course. I'm just making this to keep track of things I've read, I might've missed some, I'll add them as I remember or read further. <<less

(There's a second list out. Just add a 2 to the name of this list and you'll find it) ... more>>

These are some of the BL novels with seme protagonists that I've read and love. There are so few BL novels with a seme protagonist, which is sad. Well, I'll add the ones I've read so far and like or the ones I can somehow tolerate. And I'll add as I read I guess, so bear with me. Arigato

 P. S. Y'all can recommend similar novels too in the comment section (doesn't have to be a seme protag too, I'm open to new books, can't always find 'em myself) (^o^) <<less

I'll add more novels once i get the chance^^

BLs that take place in an interstellar setting. ... more>>

#5-19: Cute/Fluffy
#20+: Quick Transmigrations with Arcs denoted.  <<less

Hey there! Are you in for some novels where fate causes mischief in the face of our various MCs?? Well~  you’re in the right place! =^o^ As I, your ‘one of the many readers’ humbly present to you my selection of novels that left the most impression on me regarding the tags 'transmigration', 'reincarnation', 'world hopping', and 'transported to another world' ^w^=

My favourites are at the forefront of the list whilst the ones at the back are up for you readers to determine~

Happy reading! =>o^ / ~ <<less

No description.

I want to make new list for my farming money making transmigration novel, but I'm lazy and there are plenty of similar lists there. So yeah, just gonna put them here. Anyway, the MCs ahve the same characteristics as this list. ... more>>

Gong/seme MC : It feels refreshing to read gong/seme as the MC. The gong/seme will not be the usual cool, cold, quiet, dominant type, but talk active, loud, reckless, active and very very annoying LOL 

Strong Shou/ukeFor the Strong Shou/uke : strong independent shou/uke that can think and defend himself is interesting to read, even overshadow the gong is rare. Also, shou/uke that bypasses the stereotype characteristic will create something new to read.  <<less

Novels that are sugary sweet and intense with borderline obsessive, crazy characters. ... more>>

In no particular order <<less

This a list of my all-time favourite stories. Adding reviews in-progress. (May take over a long span of time.) Novels are sorted in descending worthwhileness.... more>> (Again from perspective.) <<less
