Novels that left an impression on me or novels I really loved that haven't quite hit the "top favorites" list.... more>>

For novels that are ongoing, the most common reason for being in this list instead of my tops list is because I have not read enough chapters.

For novels that are completed, these are just stories that I remember enjoying and stand out in my memory.

To see my top personal favorites, check out this list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/24/ <<less

This list contains the ongoing novels, for completed ones refer the ‘established BL’ list.

Mostly Chinese BL with horror/supernatural and/or survival element... more>>

*Some are low-key comedy

*BL: Boys' love

*No specific order <<less

Only ratings with 4.0+ are included in this list. BL novels that I have read and are currently reading which I would recommend to others.... more>> Follow this list to get updates ;)  <<less

These books just left me feeling a certain kinda way. (It may be a certain plot point, the world building, or just one character I... more>> can't bear to part with) :) <<less

What I see here is nothing but potential. Our motto here at Unrealized Reading List is “One man’s tr*sh is another man’s book to read.”... more>> Why don’t you join me in this dumpster dive and we can learn together. <3  <<less

All the Bl that i am interested in.

No description.

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

_(:3 」∠)_

Just a list of some BLs cause why not 

Mystery solving, mind numbing questions, ghosts and late night stories, thrilling adventures with a little bit of sweet romance. What more can I ask for? ... more>>

The list is in no particular order. 4.0+ ratings. 

P/S: Some of the recommendations don't have any comments on it because they have too few translated chapters but they have great potential. I'll edit it later once the translators upload more chapters.  <<less

Were the MC is rational and/or funny when facing horror/survival games or scenarios.

I like power couple and healthy relationship BL in general. I mostly interested in Unlimited Flow, Survival Game, Transmigration and Rebirth. I don't like Tragedy.

REBIRTHHH, REBORN!, AND/OR. . REVENGE (wait, what?) or just live without regrets. . . OR LIVE WITH YOUR DYING WILL!!... more>>

just some rebirth, reincarnation, transmigration, and second chances novels or any novels that involve living again after dying and all that good stuff :)

(Will not include world hopping.) <<less

You've come here because you want that yandere. ... more>>

Message me if you think there's one I haven't added/think there's one I might like. I'd really appreciate it :) <<less

This list has no order and has girlxboy and boyxboy (and even one or two girlxgirl), as long as the protagonist's soul enters the body of someone else, is here. There are no harem novels here! (Sorry but I'm not a fan). ... more>>

PS: There are some novels here that I haven't read, so I don't know if they are good or not. <<less

Sleep what sleep QAQ

No description.

The title says it all. Likeable MC, and mostly love interest falls in love first trope. Posessive & yandere MLs are my guilty pleasure :3

lista de novels que quero ler

(Actively updated.) When I first started reading on NU, I wished that there was a rec list with long descriptions of the novels so I knew what I'm getting myself into instead of having to check the synopsis of each individual novel. Couldn't find any, so I created one. Here it is. Arranged from best > worst > boring reading experience.... more>>

Disclaimer; my "reviews" are my own personal, biased opinions. I'm terrible at being systematic & putting my thoughts into effective sentences, so 90% of the novel descriptions in here are just me rambling. I usually only drop & rate novels after I've read at least until c.35. Also, I like to change my ratings & reviews sporadically. Feel free to suggest more novels and/or argue with me.

[5/5] - Truck-kun would shed real man tears at these masterpieces.

Below [4.4/5] - Truck-kun would shed tears of a disappointed Asian parent.

[3/5] - Truck-kun would hit them (again), maybe then they'll transmigrate and become a better story. Replaceable at any time.

("|| STATUS: [ ]" is my reading status as of typing the novel's description.) <<less

Well written and translated horror stories of the BL persuasion.

- Unhealthy Relationships... more>>

- Angst or Dog-Blood

- M-Preg Optional

- Modern Day World Settings

- Chinese Danmei Light Novels

*Got a rec? Leave a comment. 

Note: Listed novels are in no particular order <<less

Novels translated by Chrysanthemum Garden translation team. For novels I've read, I put on higher list and give a bit comment.
Their translation is good and the pace also great. And many enjoyable story there.... more>>

Due to the limitation of the list, I delete some novels which has rating less than 4.1

Due to the limitation of the list, I put the short stories on another list: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/35706/

> Totally recommended: super duper good great story that you'll regret if not read it
