Part 2 : https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/2925/

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

Ancient or Cultivation BL reads that will make you feel you didn't waste your time. This list is apart of a series classified by genre; other lists of this series include Thriller/Action, Fluff, and Modern/Transmigration novels. I tried to include both known and unknown novels to give more diversity to the reading list. Honest note--not a big fan of ancient settings. I've judged quality by reviews and seeming plot. ... more>>

So what is my subjective version of a quality BL of this list?

-No/little plot holes & well developed plot

Capable MC and ML  (not aggravatingly s*upid and knows when to respect each other but also put their foot down at the right moments). 

 -Lasting impression. I made this list by memory so if it's not on here...Chances are it's not worth remembering for the list.

-Makes me think--especially applies to this genre since I usually read this genre for the court schemes and palace intrigues. 

-Make me cry, laugh, yell or gasp. Perhaps all at the same  time. 

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

PS. Novels I've read are the only ones rated according to number. The rest (unread) are just listed randomly.

 PSS. There are always exceptions on this list that don't fit the requirements. But it's not bad to explore out of your comfort zone.  <<less

why do you even look for knife bro. treasure your life more. treasure your kokoro more. QAQ... more>>

Warning:
- I don't read BE (some might be BE-ish tho :haroldface:)
- I only add titles where I've experienced the knife, or know there would be knife for sure (ex: mudaoli's novel)
- degree of knife sharpness varies for each person. you might agree with this list, you might not. 
- I have low pain tolerance :haroldface: 

my scale of pain, ranged from 'not really hurts' to 'it haunts me every time I see kite': 
1-3: wooden rice spoon (getting hit by one hurts okay)
4-6: paper cut (hidden but suddenly you feel pain)
7-8: knife. be wary. 
9: you're almost ascending via 刀道
10: machete. you've already reached godhood of 刀道. congratulations.  <<less

Danmei adapted to manhuas that have official English translations (completed/ongoing/discontinued) + where to read them (status included: ongoing unless stated otherwise). Most manhuas are R15 even when the novel's genre is yaoi.... more>>

Novels/manhuas that are printed or announced to be printed are put on the first page of the list. Works written by the same author are put together. Novels are sorted by their popularity.

Since the list reached 1oo positions, I created its second part, however they will be _both_ updated if and when new titles appear or get licensed, with new title's place based on the novel's popularity and/or whether the author's other works are on the list already. If you know danmeis with official English translations of their manhua adaptations that are here on novelupdates but not yet on my list, please let me know in the comments.

It is mostly (!) sorted by how much I enjoyed it(I I finished it). To be read are at the very bottom, on hold (for various reasons ) in the middle.

Comments, Suggestions and additional warnings are welcome! (Like saying "Hippo What.The.f*ck. 'Series x not angst?! Are your feelings dead?!'" to which the answer is "Yes, they are" So I rely on others to tell me if I didn't pick up on the angst)

Removed cause I yeeted them like a hot potato(or "a list can only hold 100 but other ppl might enjoy and i wanna remember i dropped em"): 

-I've led the villain astray how do i fix it

-The protagonist is in the right position to get along with the villain <<less

Let's read them all before the adaptations are here~~~

Starting as today (09/07/2020) until
(12/31/2020), I'll be hosting the 2020 danmei reading challenge. Main goal of
the challenge on itself is to complete as much items as you can and after that,
to review the novels you read (for said items) on their respective novelupadtes
entry (a screenshot of this would be nice to verify it). You can use the novels
listed on this list for guidance, but actually you can use any other novel as
long as it's a danmei one and fulfills the requirements of the item you're aiming for. If the novel you're reading is not fully translated yet, for completition purposes you'll have to keep up to date with the... more>> latest release until 12/31/2020.
You can only use novels you haven't previously read before per item ONCE. State
the date you started reading it and the date you finished it in the form I'll
post below IN THE COMMENTS SECTION (due to description limit). You can work
this form independently, but it'd be nice if you posted the form and your
progress in a comment on this list. Remember that besides
being a challenge for fun, it's also aiming to spread love for the authors and
translators.

If you have any doubts or want to reccomend novels for me to add to this
list just comment down below. <<less

Just the ones that caught my eye or were recommended frequently. Will have to look into them later, so PLEASE NOTE that I have not vetted all of these or anything! Many are ongoing, but there are also quite a few that are completed.... more>>

This is gonna be a list of Bl novel I came to know through their adaptations. I may have already seen /read them or am interested to do so .This is my first rec list so, sorry if it is not so helpful to you.... more>>

"????" : Just means that I don't know if there is an official translation or where you could buy/ read this particular manga/hua/hwa 

 
P.s not so much of a audio drama fan but some of these do have them ,so check them out if you are interested  <<less

BL (of all genres) that leave you with a paradoxical feeling of completeness and emptiness after finishing. Completeness because the plot, characters, romance, world-building, etc.... more>> are all so well fleshed out. Emptiness because you either want to stay a bit longer with the characters in their world, or rather, you know that the story has reached its satisfying ending, and that this is where the art should end. <3 The BL & danmei world is a treasure trove of all sorts. Let's enjoy~ other recs welcome! <<less

✿ A refined collection of the most illustrious novels to date. Most, if not all, include a series of the precursor elements below:... more>>

- A primarily homos*xual theme. 

- Fully translated, or at least semi-translated. (MTL perhaps)

- Takes place in a xianxia, wuxia, or similar fantasy-esque settings. Historical and militaristic settings are quite abundant as well. Modern--maybe only a select few.

- Good relationships and even better drama. 

- The more dark, problematic themes, the better.

(I also want to make it clear that although I do rank the novels on this list based on how much I liked them, even if I give a book a low rating they still made it to this list so they're still worth reading! i have only come across ONE novel that was so unbearable to read that It couldn't even be listed here lol)

a WIP list. I will succumb to jjxwc sooner rather than later.  <<less

So if you had problem with finding good bl this is a list for you

(Also i think most negative comments of mine here can be summed up with "i dont like this gong/ relationship between main characters" bc i have way too high expectations and also hate "cold, strong, cool, quiet gong " and "naive, ignorant, weak shou" so im going to degrade novels with this overused and shitty dynamics yeah have funn reasing this list)

So enjoy
