Lighthearted, no angst, cute, romantic, warm and sweet. I re-read those often. Only completed novels listed. Some do have a little angst, but it is never between the couple, mostly drama from their past or outsiders who bring them trouble.... more>>

Those novels are well-written, with coherent story, coherent protagonists, coherent fantasy/modern world-building. Coherence and consistency in both plot and character behaviour are really important for me. I am not looking for realism. I am looking for cohesion and escapism. I don't mind characters who are OP, filthy rich, tsunderes, yanderes, geniuses, black-belly, child-like adults, evil demons, amoral characters, shota, obssessive, possessive etc.. i don't mind excessive characters because that's exactly what i like. I like that in Asian lit, those marginal characters are heroes and not defined by standardised morality. In Western lit, i don't meet many characters like that, and i have 45yrs of reading western literature. The only character set i avoid are indecisive protags who have no self-knowledge and keep self-analysing which i find quite boring. IRL, i also avoid such people lol... <<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.

Short, light hearted and sweet stories.

* Mix of BL’s <<less

 It's too wide of a range to specify a particular type, just that they are all BL's. Most are completely translated, some aren't.

Part two of the fluff galore list. It's always nice to take a break from heavier novels and read something fluffy and light-hearted.  Better yet if it's high quality fluff. So here ya go. I put novels on this list when reviews look good, fluff looks huggable, and there's no s*upidity. ... more>>

Students, sit back and rest. You're doing just fine, and probably accomplishing more than you think you are. Just keep focused on your goals!

People out of school: relax from any stress! It's ok to make mistakes, or not be in the path you thought you would be ten years ago. If you're having a hard time at work, please take a breather. Sit outside on your steps or even take a walk outside. Everything will be just fine. 

Hopefully at least some of the fluff will make you feel happier and give you some warmth.

Enjoy!

PS. FME means I put the novel on this list regardless of rating because the reviews were mostly, if not all, good. I rely on reviews that have completed or mostly completed the novel, because lately there have been some dimwits just rating BLs 1 stars or 2 stars.

PSS.  I have also included BL novels that have high expectations from me. The higher the expectations, the higher the stars. Hence, "***, **, *."

PSSS. All novels I've read and can provide some review and ranking are on part 1 of this series.  <<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.
