No description.

Compilation of BL novels that I have read that contain angst, but they range from just making your heart twinge from the pain to making your heart bleed, heal it, then proceed to cut it open again, and heal it again. I'll arrange it from easy to nightmare mode according to MY perspective. My heart is quite puny, so what makes my heart twinge may not inflict anything to you. This is based on MY perspective. 
Mostly HE, but some are BE. I'll write a note on BE so that you don't fall into the trap of never ending heartache and suffering.... more>>

WARNING: Some will contain 'Rape', 'r*pe victim becomes lover', and 'su*cide' tags, so please read the tags and proceed at your own discretion. <<less

This was supposedly my sembreak binge list, but I added many more novels so I really can't finish everything within my two-week semestral break. This will be my reading list for 2023 then. Hopefully my slow ass can finish everything by the end of this year. ... more>>

*moved the on-going translations to a new list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/67451/ <<less

Wuxia, xuanhuan, xianxia, martial arts :b

These are high ranking novels in popularity

So i ran out of room on the other one so this is where all the other stuff that i read will go. 

I'm fairly new to danmei and have specific tastes so the books might seem similar to each other. I MTL-ed some of them. Here's a list of danmei I've read/still reading in no particular order. ... more>>

Please suggest if you know more novels like these!! Also I have not read them all so if there is a novel which does not fit here please do tell! <<less

Danmei I have read and really enjoyed

Stories with crazy smart plot. Not all about mystery solving, some just have crazy plot that not a lot of author can pull off (e.g.... more>> time travel). Some just involve good schemes and conspiracies. <<less

I'm a simple person (anything I enjoyed, I'll give 4/5 stars at least regardless of plot holes, bad writing, etc.)... more>>

**Btw other reader is my fren (2nd opnion) 

***If I personally don't like something, then I won't rate it, especially if I can see the appeal for others. 

5 stars - GREAT, must read

4 stars - enjoyable, but some aspects leave me feeling iffy

3 stars - it was okay, good read to pass time

2 stars - didn't like

1 star - solid pass.  <<less

Everybody praises these novels to the moon/they're highly rated and popular in the Chinese community, but I haven't gotten around to reading them... more>>

I will put an "easy to MTL" tag if I find that the novels are clean and readable in MTL. 

I literally have so many novels stacked up, but I'm always complaining about not having anything to read, BUT HERE IT IS, stacking up chapters first because waiting is painful and lonely.

This list includes novels that I'm waiting to be fully translated, or novels that I have on my 'read next'. <<less

All bl in historical setting or ancient time novel I’m reading or planning to. Includes Wuxia, Xianxia , xuanhuan.

Just the good stuff I’ve read over the years. Fair warning, it is mostly danmei. I’ll try my best to read other genres.... more>>

not in any order** <<less
