I'm honestly really surprised that I could get so many BL novels with seme protagonists. Well, they are quite many but annoyingly, most aren't complete. Either the translations aren't uploaded regularly or the whole novel is just dropped. I haven't read quite a number of the novels in my lists because of these reasons. ... more>>

Well, enjoy guys :* <<less

◇Literally the best of the best◇... more>>

List is in progress. New stories added as I find them. ... more>>

Romance novels of various sub genres where I enjoyed the characters, romance, setting or all of the above enough that I read them over and over again. 

This is a huge mash up of settings and maturity level. Read all tags on the novels before you click one to make sure you are into that style of story.

If you have a book that you read over and over thats not on this list, please drop a comment. Im always on the look out for good stories.  <<less

Incomplete translation.... more>>

Read via Google translation or mtl.

Check out my other list for completed novels of same kind : Pampering, doting partner BL

stories to choose from when I'm done with my current read (many different genres)

After reading war prisoner, I have a thirst for stories with the Male empress genre ( with happy endings *wink). So this is my list so far.... more>>

P.S - I traditionally avoid anything with a whiff of a sad ending, since I've always been the optimistic type who feeds off of happy endings to survive.

P.P.S - I added only the good ones. If the story is not good or boring I put notes underneath. and the ones that are not worth reading, well I didn't add them. <<less

Part 1 is here: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/76166/ ... more>>

Since I don't have any new space in my former BL list, here is the new one!! ... more>>

I'll add every new novel that I've recently found and judged as an amazing one~  (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+

PS: I like almost every genre, so I guess everyone can find something for themselves here haha <<less

Main CP has good communication, mutual respect, everything is consensual (preferably with enthusiastic consent), and an equal partnership.  ... more>>

This list only includes novels I've read and liked (personal rating 4/5+). I have a preference for more light-hearted novels so you won't see anything too angsty/dog-blooded on this list. 

***The list is in order of my personal rankings but I put lesser-known novels that I ranked highly first.***                             This list is highly subjective so some novels that aren't necessarily works of art are ranked high cause I had a blast reading them.  <<less

The MCs of the list are comparatively active ones. They can be dense before the relationship like Wei Ying but they get enlightened sooner or later (≧▽≦).
They may or may not be the first one to fall in love.... more>>

It may sound weird but before reading 'Advance Bravely' novel I almost came to believe that in all the Chinese BL novels, One partner is always reluctant or passive; well it maybe noted that I haven't had read that many BL novels before it; this novel enlightened me.

I have only included the ones I have read.

If you have novel recommendation(s) please comment.

Both BL and BG (will say which it is) The novels that I actually read from beginning to finish and didn't end up skipping through. (I don't have much patience so if a story gets a little boring I'll start skipping through and then won't save it so these are the ones that I didn't end up skipping through) They are all HE because I can't deal with BE and for the most part their endings are satisfying with no super big loose ends that don't get tied up. ... more>>

The novels aren't in any particular order - (the beginning is just alphabetically backwards from the ones I've saved and then the later ones are just in order of when I read them)

I'm slowly going through the lists and adding my thoughts on the novels.... emphasis on slowwwllyyyy <<less
