Dedicated to all the QT Gong MC lovers, as an enthusiast myself.... more>>

Also contains transmigration Gong MC, or purely Gong MCs. <<less

(There's a second list out. Just add a 2 to the name of this list and you'll find it) ... more>>

These are some of the BL novels with seme protagonists that I've read and love. There are so few BL novels with a seme protagonist, which is sad. Well, I'll add the ones I've read so far and like or the ones I can somehow tolerate. And I'll add as I read I guess, so bear with me. Arigato

 P. S. Y'all can recommend similar novels too in the comment section (doesn't have to be a seme protag too, I'm open to new books, can't always find 'em myself) (^o^) <<less

This list contains love that transcends two lifetimes through characters that travel through time and space to be with their loved one.... more>>

- involving lovers that get another chance, this list includes characters (eg. ml or children) that go back in time to meet and save their beloved (eg. fl or parents) from unfortunate situations. 

 -includes Non-strangers that transmigrate together and continue to associate with each other to eventually fall in love; characters from different time periods that fall in love; lovers that continue to love and find their happy ending after rebirth; multiple transmigrations; and lovers that eventually travel to the mc’s original world to stay together 

- includes lovers separated by time and dimensions 

- won’t include world hopping, quick transmigration novels with a system administrator unless both mc and ml have systems that relay tasks related to each other falling in love  <<less

Therapy costs more than these novels.... more>>

**A better name for this list would be Tragic Romance Novels (18+) but I wanted to emphasize on the process of grief I regularly experience while reading this stuff. 

-----------------------------------------------

I'll still be implementing a rating system from **1-5 with 1 being just sad at some parts to 5 being downright horrific**

**In addition, rather than the summaries I put short explanations for the rating. In all honesty, it's better for you to ignore them. Protect your mental well-being from my inane babbling and mild spoilers. <<less

im tired of all the wuxia and xianxia (not you tgcf, ily) lists, if nobody's going to account for my niche thEN I WILL BAKE MY CAKE AND E A T IT.... more>>

notes: 

• yeah that's right, I'm going to give you Funky Commentary ft. Questionable Opinions for the entirety of this rec list

• i try really hard to organise this from most to least read but ngl, that's really hard to do with executive dysfunction (also honestly I love nearly ALL the novels in this list haha *eyes EIC*)

• ngl i have a certain bias towards horror comedy so if you're here for the really f*cked up sh*t You Will Be Slightly Disappointed,, onlyalil (starting to realise my thirst for horror bl is making this just look like the search results when you tag horror and shounen ai SKFHSDJ)

• no hate for wuxia and xianxia lovers btw, ive just exhausted all my care in trying to find SOMEONE who understands my inherent Need to see more horror bl <<less

Prt 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/54466/?ft=yes... more>>

These BL's have left lasting impressions on me in the past years. This list includes the thriller/action/horror/mystery/crime genre. This list is a part of a series classified by genre ; other lists of this series include Ancient Setting novels and  Modern/Futuristic/Transmigration 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/mystery

-Actually thrilling

-Capable MC and ML  (not aggravatingly s*upid and know 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. 

-Good development of all characters--including side characters--as long as the main focus is the main couple.

-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

This is just some random list of BL novels that I'm specially waiting for their stories to be completed or translated once again since some... more>> has been on hiatus for a long time. I'm basing it on the summary and how it hooked my interest so please don't expect, the list is heavily subjective. I know some of the novels has low ratings yet I'm still taking my chances especially since I enjoy fluff, slice of life, [very] light drama, action, and adventure genres. No heavy drama here in this list. Although I might some, I doubt I'll read it immediately. Anyways, once again, this is a very subjective list so don't expect much.  <<less

Former Title: Human-Non Human (Undead) Relationship... more>>

(2) Undead Love

b. Western Zombie <<less

By "good romantic story", at minimum: no bs that isn't justified or explained, or is overly done; romance is not offensive, neither lead being an as*hole to each other; romance that isn't overly dry or has too much drama; leads may be either slightly stereotypes or codependent but at least it's cute and they are not 2d but the sides may be a little; chemistry is good and story plot is mediocre or vice versa... more>>

At best: independent badass leads where the romance is a build up of them doing their own thing and getting to know each other; solid world building; 3d characters all around; fluff that makes you happy and not bored to read; there is actually good plot; there is life beyond romance but the romance makes it nice to read too
