I am open to add novels to this recc list 

These will be of varying rates but I will not list novels below 4 stars ✨ 

Please follow the list of you liked it .

Thank You <<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

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

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

Strictly MC or ML rebirth and no transmigration

No description.

#transmigration#rebirth#school life# bl novels that focuses on MC and ML

Good BLs that are a little less healthy/quality, or too short to judge yet. SF is squick factors, CW is content warnings. If I missed some lmk. Mxtx, Priest, and Meatbun not here bc most ppl know how they feel and I don’t feel like defending my opinion. ... more>>

*I won't include every novel I read here, just the ones I really think are worth at least a try. There are also a few I dropped but I felt like it was more personal bias or a pet peeve that made me drop it/give it a low score, and objectively, other people might like it.

*List has reached max amount so I'll start another one.

* Some novels I haven't read yet but think that they might be good because of the description, rating, and reviews.

*I believe all of the novels in this list are slow romance, and also love interest falls in love first.

Completed - worth to read with great plot and romance

Hiatus - just dropped due to cliché plot or cringe-y characters, or just needed to have more chapters to be translated

Ongoing - was in the process of reading <<less
