Basically stories that don't treat women like tr*sh. Stories that see women as complex beings and doesn't slut-shame or victim-blame them. Stories where women have... more>> self-esteem. Stories where the FL has female friends and the relationship is strong. Romance stories where the partners don't abuse each other but treat them with love and respect. The protagonists in these might not all be physically strong but they are mentally strong. They have their own desires and ambition without having everything done for them by their love interests.
I will try to arrange the list but it might not always be in order of importance. <<less

These are the novels I read. The top 20 novels are highly recommended and guaranteed good, but some of them are not yet completed (I... more>> mtld it).  <<less

Favorite romances that take place in ancient China, but not in the Emperor’s palace

Historical/Political novels I’m currently reading w gay romance! Hope you find some you’ll enjoy!^^

Well the recommendation list of my personal (Yuri) favorites. I'm not fan of gender bender male -> female so you probably won't see one. Some... more>> of the translations are dropped so if you can bear with mtl trans then... most of them are at the end page of the list. <<less

This list does not and will not contain gender bender and/or women with d**ks(f**anari) themed novels since I'm not really into that genre.

There are many reasons - I lost interest or I can't stand reading them to the very end, especially if there are a lot of... more>> chapters. I will never read them again, thus I created this list to ensure that I will remember which titles not to touch again. <<less

The four arts (四藝, siyi), or the four arts of the Chinese scholar, were the four main academic and artistic accomplishments required of the aristocratic ancient Chinese scholar-gentleman. They are qin (the guqin, a stringed instrument, 琴), qi (the strategy game of Go, 棋), shu (Chinese calligraphy, 書) and hua (Chinese painting, 畫), and are also referred to by listing all four: 琴棋書畫; qínqíshūhuà.
