✨Only the cream of the crop ✨ All the (mostly) historical novels which have proven to stand the test of time a.k.a survived  my endless nitpicking, fluctuating moods and multiple re-read. So yeah, pretty strong novels.... more>>

PS: The others novels I liked, but not enough to be featured here, are in my yearly "New Favorite Historical Romances" lists. <<less

These novels are those that I deemed worthy of being called one of the High/Top Tier BL novels out here. ... more>>

There are also novels here that aren't BL but I still included them (in the list and in the comment box) to bring such masterpieces to your attention.

Also, those with a ⭐ are the ones that occupy a space in my heart! They are very special to me and I will read them over and over again!

10/08/2023. I will arrange my lists in the future! So excited!

My comments and ratings on the BEST BL out there that I've read over the past 5 years.  Completed as of January 2024 and will start part 2 list soon. ... more>>

I have a soft spot for strong MCs, unusual relationship dynamics, plotty action, and a well-developed side character cast. I tend to prefer feel-good stories over dark, overly complex ones. These stories don't have everything I like, but they're all great for at least one aspect. 4/5 = like it, 5/5 = love it! MXTX novels not included because they are classics. 

Let me know what you think or if you have MTL recommendations! <<less

Couldn't find a list for this so I just created one myself. This list contains smut novels (or ordinary novels with smut) without dubious consent or non-con. And I might update everytime I come across a novel that fits the criteria, so this list is pretty tiny right now but hopefully won't remain this way forever.... more>>

Also, PLEASE let me know in the comments if you've come across more novels with car rides where both parties are willing, or if any novel here doesn't actually fit the criteria so I can remove it as soon as possible. I've read plenty of the novels here but not all of them, some were recommended through friends I just can't completely trust because they once told me that 2ha was fluffy (f*ck you Sam why did you do that to me), and others were found through manually reading reviews for any mentions of non-con so I could know whether those novels are safe to add or not. 

So, the guidance of my fellow daoists cultivating the dao of consent is much, much appreciated! I want everyone here to be comfy and happy with what they've found.  <<less

Now it might come out as different for others but please bear in mind that this is just my personal list of novels that I've... more>> read as very unique/noteworthy/rare in this genre. It might also include novel summaries that caught my eye as distinctive, but generally I'd definitely read it first before adding it to this list 'cause this is my 5+ stars BL novels. Anyone is also free to comment down below to recommend any bl novels they think of that fits this list xoxo~ <<less

These are the novels which has good plotline and smex scenes. I have included short novels as well if their is a considerable plot. (Some novels even after having just 10 chapters can have good plotline)... more>>

Degree varies; whether the scenes are detailed or not is mentioned

I personally prefer such novels where 'willing' physical intimacy is also shown. So descriptions are based on my likeness to the relationship.

Consent.is.Important. 

I have only included the ones I have read.

If you have novel recommendation(s) please comment.

The usual recipe(variations may occur) for delicious dogblood plot is: Be a scum, Break a heart, Late realisation, Regrets, +/-Rebirth/Second chances, +++Chase wife to crematorium. 

Includes tragedies.

⚠️ Warning ⚠️: Som-*cough* Most of em contains 'Rape' and 'r*pe victim becomes lover' tags. And few include 'su*cide' tag so please read the tags before you proceed. <<less

Srsly don't come back crying despite warnings & still read it lol. HARDCORE, NO BLACKOUTS. NSFW. Noveils w/ PLENTY of smut ONLY! "H" tropes detailed in my mini reviews. Choose your poison. (Have plot or Pure p0rn, I will mark)... more>>

❌ PWP:  Basically pr0n. (PREPARE HOLY WATER) The"I'LL-FAP-ON-THAT!" novel. ALL MEAT! Some may have minimal plot (◾minimal=story is barely there) but still basically p*rn and/or outright "hentai". 

⭕ has  plot + smut, how much varies. ( ◾some plot=at least 25% story the rest smut/ ◾balanced=50-50 self-explanatory/ ◾story+smut=sƐx is still detailed and hard but plot dominates the novel.

[2023 EDIT:] All p0rny novels are here. Milder ones transferred to another list. Updates done weekly. Ask me for raws  if you want to MTL. 

 Takame Filter: 

- I don't blindly add stories just to make numbers. Every reviews were done after I finished reading. I'm allergic to skimming. I check the smut myself. 

- I'll use terms normally for p0rn so I prepared a mini glossary down the comments section for the unfamiliar.

- FAKE HAREM IS BANNED HERE

- Stories that only have 1-2 chapters of sƐx ARE NOT INCLUDED (I see other lists do that) Cuz can you really call them "smutty" like that? No. But I made a separate list for those who enjoy more stories.

Here's your plot-focused BL smut:  https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/67417/ <<less

My Favorite Chinese Historical  Novels which I've finished or I am currently reading part 2 >.< This list consists of both BL and Straight novels with... more>> a rating above 4.0~ <<less

As the title says. Short stories and novels that have an actual story, relatively interesting characters, and also smut to some extent. Quality of smut... more>> varies though. All are stories I've read (and mostly completed). For some of the titles the translation left out the smut - google raw title and you can find some sites which have it. Some authors like Ka Bi Qiu and Shui Qian Cheng also use AO3 (under pseudonyms) and Haitang /Longma (free but you need to register on the site) to upload smut chapters. Otherwise sites like shukuwang are a good source. <<less

The MCs of the list are comparatively active ones. They can be dense before the relationship like Wei Ying but they get enlightened sooner or later (≧▽≦).
They may or may not be the first one to fall in love.... more>>

It may sound weird but before reading 'Advance Bravely' novel I almost came to believe that in all the Chinese BL novels, One partner is always reluctant or passive; well it maybe noted that I haven't had read that many BL novels before it; this novel enlightened me.

I have only included the ones I have read.

If you have novel recommendation(s) please comment.
