Are you a sucker for yanderes? Then here it is, a vitamin for yanderes! Drink a dozen once a day and you'll get addicted just like me! ╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯... more>>

I got addicted to them last year. The reason's I always feel mesmerized by their myriad of emotions that they feel towards FL, especially their despair and misery. 

And I don't read Harem, I only simp loyal men here.

* Not in order 

* Also, pls keep in mind that some have smut and forced s*x/r*pe <<less

✨Only the cream of the crop ✨ All the (mostly) historical novels which have proven to stand the test of time a.k.a survived  my endless nitpicking, fluctuating moods and multiple re-read. So yeah, pretty strong novels.... more>>

PS: The others novels I liked, but not enough to be featured here, are in my yearly "New Favorite Historical Romances" lists. <<less

I'm a very picky reader who often skimmed through many chapters and sometimes wouldn't even read til the end, unless imo the novel is really, really that good. And this is my list of the best BxG romance with female protagonist and more than 4 ⭐ ratings.... more>>

Do please take note though, most of these novels are still being translated into English so I usually finished 'em by MTL. <<less

beware ;) take it with a grain of salt and caution... more>>

Ps. Added notes for the ones that I don't think is yandere enough / is still currently reading to see whether it fits the list <<less

* There will be no BL, HAREM, YAOI,GL ... more>>

*B×G, one vs one relationship.

Based on my personal scale of yandere intensity.... more>>

NOTE: THE RATING IS NOT A RATING OF THE NOVEL, ONLY THE INTENSITY OF THE YANDERE. 

This list includes all the books I think are solid 7+/10 and very intense male yanderes. BL included. Most novels are completed. Spoilers beware! 

The Scale:

1: All bark no bite

7: Glaring red flags, but red is my favourite colour. 

9: Perfect intensity. The most intense just below abusive imo. 

10: My friend, if you don't get out of there, imma call 911 to drag you out of there. Somebody get a restraining order pls im begging.

Please note: These are intense yanderes, there will be toxic and abusive relationships. Please read the tags for TWs. <<less

novel i finished reading and loved it, sometimes i'll reread it again and again. mostly happy ending (my life already not easy so there's no... more>> need to add angst)  ^^
FYI, for some uncomplete translated novel, i read it via MTL. just copy paste the chineese title on google than add shubaow or imiaobige in it <<less

Thank you to everyone who made my first list such a hit IMO :') A continuation of all the well-written CN novels I've read and grew fond of!  No order in terms of quality~ ... more>>

Romance that gratify my soul. They are super sweet novels that give me a dopamine rush. Novels that make you crave for that kind of love. In addition to underrated gems, I have tried to include various fluffy, BG novels of different genres. Enjoy!! :)... more>>

-Not ranked in order; highly rated novels; BG; 1v1 (no harem), HE, lots of fluff <<less

Yandere ML, Love Interest Falls In Love First, Strong Female MC. Honestly, if you want a yandere and possessive ML and can’t get triggered at... more>> the toxicity, then this list is for you. Some are also not toxic, I also left reviews so that you could pick. <<less

Novels I personally disliked or left a bad taste in my mouth (Biased Opinion)

Content the following:... more>>

Not your typical dense MC (most of them are level-headed and has actual agency), yandere and messed up but intriguing dynamics (some of them), an actual mature way to portray a relationship, the girls take the lead or initiative, balanced relationships (most of them), Love interests that aren't your typical 'frustating and pushy alpha CEO", spicy moments, fluffs.

The preview I write about the stories will primarily focus on the MC & ML relationship. <<less

We all know that some novels when MTL'ed can kill a few of your brain cells,  but here are some that I'll willingly sacrifice them... more>> for.   <<less

fls that i love so much because they are so dumb that it's so cute. ... more>>

these fls have all made me laugh, and are my favorite out of all the novels i have read. 

i'm a supporter of women's rights and wrongs

 be warned that there are spoilers <<less

I was tired of reading stories about tyrant ceo's , their actions irked me ; not to mention the hypocritical FL's who magically fell in love with their abusers but still shamelessly promote being a strong woman . So I created a list of MC's that don't irk me . The ML's are cute sweethearts , they might be a bit stereotypical in the beginning but you would know why I call them sweethearts soon and most Importantly the FL's ARE THE PROACTIVE ONE'S IN THESE NOVELS . ... more>>
