↬You're tired of: Non-con | Major power imbalance | Romanticisation of toxic, manipulative, and controlling behaviour. 

↬And you want: Novels that put emphasis on consent | Mutual respect, trust, and understanding between the main cp | Forehead pecks | Character development | Couple growth | Misunderstandings that get resolved through proper communication. 

・୨・┈・・┈・୨୧・┈・・┈・୧・

Please make sure to first check the tags on these novels before starting them though, as some of them talk about sensitive matters (Mistakenly Saving the Villain for example) 

Also, aside from Saye — which holds a special place in my heart, rest of the list isn't arranged by my personal preferences but rather the covers, as I like to keep my lists colour-coordinated. However, if you were to ask me, my favourite healthy relationships out of these would be — Saye, Mistakenly Saving the Villain, Restricted Area, Heaven Official’s Blessing, and To Rule in a Turbulent World.

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

All the novels here have a top/seme/gong mc.

I am sick and tired of reading novel after novel showcasing toxic relationship as romance in BL novels. Depicting lust, addiction, possessiveness, jealousy, s*xual harassment, infatuation and desire as love, I don't understand what the majority of authors of BL novels are trying to achieve.... more>>

Now that I have vented my anger, I feel a bit better. Anyways, here is a list of BL novels that tells us what true love is all about. <<less

This is not in order...

Title says it all. Novels that has a Seme / Gong Protagonist.

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

Non-Toxic Novels + Mpreg that I've read so far... more>>

And the MLs or the gongs/seme/top are great <<less

BL novels where there is a focus on creating infrastructure!

List of novels in my To Read list for my favourite trope, rags to riches! To my best guess anyway since I haven't read them XD. Also usually slice of life. ... more>>

I'll also put what made me want to pick the story up. Just be warned that I will delete the story from the list after I've read so the list will frequently change. I like to view the cover art of the book, and be able to see a lot of novel details on the list in one place instead of having to click to the web novel page. I also include any translation detail like where to find them if they aren't on novelupdates so I can read the whole story without getting stuck halfway because of no translations. Not in any particular order but I try to put similar novels, either in expected tropes or vibes together. And the incompleted ones at the back.  Recommendations are very welcome! <<less

I used to read western novels mostly but after the hype of Mo Dao Zu Shi, I got attracted to Chinese BL novels. And recently I have fallen into the BL hole. So, I continuously read Asian BL novels and what I have seen is that many of the BL stories have the following characteristics:... more>>

1. Stories are repetitive in nature with one main character completely obsessed with the other main character. Also, most of them focus mainly on the lead characters. Most of the time, side characters are just there to be the lead characters' lackeys or face-slap recipients.

2. Even the writing style and plot are copy-paste from some older novels of the same genre. 

3. R*pe is highly romanticized especially on Asian BL novels.

4. Toxic relationship is depicted as romantic . 

5. And lets not forget the segregation of 'top' and 'bottom'. 

6. 'Tops' are aloof, cold, otherworldly handsome, possessive and sex-driven.

7. 'Bottoms' are feminine, meek and cute.

Have I forgotten anything else? Feel free to remind me.

There are really only a few stories with proper world building, character development, healthy relationship, intricate and original plot, realistic characters, original writing style, etc.  These are what I personally think are the best Asian BL novels I have ever read: <<less

Some novel with food p**rn
