Lighthearted, no angst, cute, romantic, warm and sweet. I re-read those often. Only completed novels listed. Some do have a little angst, but it is never between the couple, mostly drama from their past or outsiders who bring them trouble.... more>>

Those novels are well-written, with coherent story, coherent protagonists, coherent fantasy/modern world-building. Coherence and consistency in both plot and character behaviour are really important for me. I am not looking for realism. I am looking for cohesion and escapism. I don't mind characters who are OP, filthy rich, tsunderes, yanderes, geniuses, black-belly, child-like adults, evil demons, amoral characters, shota, obssessive, possessive etc.. i don't mind excessive characters because that's exactly what i like. I like that in Asian lit, those marginal characters are heroes and not defined by standardised morality. In Western lit, i don't meet many characters like that, and i have 45yrs of reading western literature. The only character set i avoid are indecisive protags who have no self-knowledge and keep self-analysing which i find quite boring. IRL, i also avoid such people lol... <<less

mermaid / nightinggales / guide / AO and the like; usually fixing mental riots, pheromone disorder and other mental and/or power problems. Not literal physical illness but may be connected. Mostly exclusive between the couples/partners but some can do it for  other people. there's no specific novel tag for this so I just created a list to collate titles the time I got addicted with these kinds. I've read a lot over the years but forgotten some LOL. ... more>>

This list will have sporadic update as I try to I recall old titles or read something new.

My little reviews might possible have spoilers bcos of me telling why it matched this list. Or just skip over them over.

❗Readers: if you reckon a story you've read is a good match for this list's theme, pls recommend and I'll review it! :) <<less

PS: I'll just casually add more as time goes by though XD <<less

No description.

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

Zero drama✓ Zero tragedy✓ Zero dog blood✓
Feel good BL, mostly danmei, and modern or future settings (I removed the historical ones because they're already in my historical danmei rec list). Includes shounen ai, yaoi, and BL with smut. Plot has little angst, since I don't like novels full of misunderstandings and dog blood. There were too many titles to sort by personal preference so they're sorted in alphabetical order. I personally read each and every one; I didn't drop any of them.... more>>

I realized I left out a few good ones in this list so I created a part 2: https://www.novelupdates.com/viewlist/87244/ <<less

Fully translated BL novels. Shounen Ai 4.0 and under rating.

This is a list for all of the backlogged stories that I have found and want to read but don't have the time for. AKA, my phone's browser is literally flooded with tabs that I need to start closing for my own sake (ToT) ... more>>

Edit: The statuses for these stories were meant to be mixed but I ended up hitting the limit for a list before I was done. Why is there even a limit for this thing?! Anyways, this list now needs to be split into a Complete and Ongoing versions. Hopefully, I'll manage to keep it updated as things go along (T-T) <<less

MC's that are really soft and sweet, sometimes naive, and are especially cute in front of their wife-worshipping husbands (basically all bl)
