I don't like abusive, dog-blood drama, and weak characterization. I don't like Imbalanced Couple where the Seme/Gong is too Overbearing. I don't like weak, femininized, Uninteresting/Lackluster Uke, or bratty/silly Shou whose IQ drop drastically when encountering the Gong.  ... more>>

So these are a few novels with good plots, and mainly consist of interesting MC and good ML I strongly recommend. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE NOVELS IN THIS LIST IS RANDOMLY LISTED WITHOUT FIXED RANKING, and also these are only novels that I HAVE READ. 
This list will randomly be updated if I find another worth noting novel. <<less

High Quality BL (slightly more serious) reads set in modern/futuristic setting--or perhaps jumps between time through transmigration. This list is 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, Fluff, and Ancient Setting novels. I tried to include both known and unknown novels to give more diversity to the reading list. 

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). If not capable, at least not s*upid. 

-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.

 ****I have also included BL novels that have high expectations from me. The higher the expectations, the higher the stars (purely subjective, take it with a grain of salt). 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. Though not fluff, there will be some Feel Good (have more of a plot) novels here. <<less

Series with Yandere, Possessive and/or Obsessive MLs.... more>>

Shou/Uke/Bottom Protagonist for all of these!

Novels closer to #1 are ones ive personally finished and enjoyed. Only includes novels I have read, but not necessarily liked (ie. the latter novels might not be as good)

I finally made an account after years of not, so I decided to make a list of bunch of stories that I’ve read. Hope you enjoy. Also the stories may not follow exactly the tags I listed for this list, btw. One day I will put these stories in actual numerical order, but today is not that day. ... more>>

There is a part 2, since I filled this one up within an hour or so. 

Also note majority of these stories on here I have not actually finished them because I am a loser who has a problem called constantly picking up a new book to read.   <<less

Lots of scheming and imperial drama with exceptionally 'wise' emperors, more often than not. ... more>>

[Read the tags.] <<less

Personal selection of BL novels that I love and would like to reread again and again

From childish bickering, petty actions, to sweet pampering, this list contains enemies to lovers troope, or couples with identities where the partner is supposedly the other’s enemies. Hope you enjoy! ... more>>

- 1v1, HE

- Includes: enemies to lovers; mistaken identities; people in the novel assume they’re enemies; in the original storyline, the characters were supposed to be enemies, but works out differently; or stereotypically considered to be enemies in society due to their identity, but novel contradicts the stereotype <<less

Welcome stumbling passengers or veterans to the second installment of this list. 

Somethings I never had the chance to note because I (also) filled up the description boxes’ capacity limit in the first list. 

1. I have not read all the novels on this list YET. All read novels are on part 1 with the according reviews. I made this list so I could have something visual to look at when looking for good quality novels to read. I judge "good quality novels" by seeming reviews and ratings or perhaps the book has an interesting premise you don’t usually find.

2.  I look for a capable MC and a subjectively respectful ML, but that doesn’t necessarily mean every book I put here fits that requirement. Once again, there is always exceptions. 

3. I don't like looking at the rating of the novel when there are barely any reviews. Thus I look at the reviews. If the reviews (even scarce) like it, it has potential. Thus, FME indicates that a novel has been added regardless of NU rating. 

 ****The higher the expectations for BL novels I have not read, the higher the stars. Hence, "***, **, *." <<less

[1/6] a list of BL's I actually read at least 75% through + the on going ones that i really like! LOTS of BL!! this is from a series of recc lists (check out my BG recc list AND my other BL recc lists [GL coming soon !!!] !!!) that i'm making for my own reading log with hopes that other people might give them a try as well! ... more>>

currently organized in descending star rate order !!!

♡ tips for novel enjoyment (esp for newbies to the site ! ) ♡: 

♡ give each novel a fair chance even if the rating is low ! some people just rate 1 star for no reason (especially for BLs and GLs) without even reading it, which is highly unfair ! sometimes, you'll come across GOLD in the lower ratings ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

♡ check the OG novel publishing date ! older novels generally tend to have more questionable morals than ones from ~2019+, and they tend to be really cliche BECAUSE they were likely the pioneers of the genre (i.e. QT, apocalypse, etc...) you don't have to read them, but just keep that in mind !

♡ don't like? don't read ! ... But PLEASE read the synopsis and a few reviews to make sure you know what you're getting into both plot-wise and content warning-wise ! I see some people start ranting after going into a silly sweet QT novel expecting 9000+ level IQ protagonists and plots and,, i'm sorry but you're not gonna see that. manage your expectations and i assure you, you'll have a nice time! <<less
