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

It wasn't until I knew about Danmeis that my whole world changed; danmeis might only be texts for us to read, countless words mashed together but it creates new worlds for us to explore. You can see hundreds of new things, discover a lot of things, and have hundreds of emotions as you read. 

New danmei readers or even old ones, there's a lot of underrated novels to read over here.

A clearer list of everything I've read. Rereading everything that I've read to have a clear evaluation.  <<less

The novels here are not finished. We would be happy if a translator sees this list and likes a novel here and starts translating it.... more>> Of course, I want translations of all the novels I have added here, or I will add them here, but the beginning of one is enough to make me happy to death. (I'll add some novels here but you know, I'm a human too, so I can't remember all the quality novels left, so I'd appreciate it if you could help me out in the comments. <<less

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. This list is also a part of a series classified by genre (because I have too many novel to fit otherwise) ; other lists of this series include Thriller/Action, QT/Modern, and Ancient Setting novels. I tried to include both known and unknown novels to give more diversity to the reading list. ... more>>

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

-No/little plot holes 

-Not aggravatingly weak or s*upid MC

-In most cases, a respectful, long legged, hot asf ML

-Makes me smile and blush

-Don't have that many requirements for fluff....because well...it's fluff. It's not supposed to be deep. 

 ****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 (most likely the unread ones). But it's not bad to explore out of your comfort zone. 

PSSS. FME= novel has been added regardless of NU rating because it looks like it has potential or/and the reviews love it. <<less
