I want to read about food. Anyway, I don't care if it's real or fantasy, as long as it sounds tasty, then it's good. I want food to be very important. I want to read about food businesses. I want to read about reactions to sheer deliciousness and comments that praise food to the heavens.... more>>

This list is mostly concerned with food descriptions. Does the food sound tasty? Is food/cooking important? Do people react to the food in a hunger-inspiring way? Is it tasty? Is detail given? Do side characters bite into delicious morsels and wish to ascend to the skies because surely they'll never taste anything better?

I also like business aspects and such, but cooking at home is fine too. Contains het/bl mostly, but this list isn't really concerned with romance. A miscellaneous assortment of novels with some/a lot of focus on food that sounds good. I have other lists for plot. This list is for food.  <<less

stories that I have thoroughly enjoyed. mainly contain BxG stories

I hope the chapters keep rolling...

maybe I’ll pick up again

Historical romance set in ancient China. (Boy x Girl)... more>>

Known BE removed. I tried to put the most recent completed first. But it isn't in any particular order, for the ones at the end. Just the order I found it. <<less

No bs toxic love stories (unless it's literally too addictive but those will be noted) with illogical leads, inconsistent storylines, abusive MC's for no reason, no dumb leads, nothing overly cringy, no excessive dogblood or drama, nothing overly boring as well, no misogyny if I can help it etc. These are bg/bl books where the leads HAVE TO TREAT EACH OTHER WELL. Or at least change in that direction. That is the base line. Cliches and Opness are accepted here as long as they are enjoyable to read and are well executed. ... more>>

I have a tendency to like more mature love where the characters both have a LIFE and may like each other on the side-- most will be like that. A few will be sweet, very charming romances that make you feel respected / happy.

Fully translated novels to read. F/M.

No description.

Romances que parecem bons e pretendo ler futuramente.

There are the books that you read after hours and leave satisfied; not thinking that you wasted so much time but felt enriched and full from the stories. They are not quick transmigration books and easy fun reads- but ones that are with depth, full of careful thought and meaning, as well showcasing different types of love that can be found in this world. ... more>>

Maybe you're looking for a quick read or any read to past the time but you don't want to feel regret reading the whole day- this is the collection for you. These are the books that once you put down- you call up a family member or loved one to talk about life. They are all romance but moreso about romance in life, within people, and in the world.

This is a gift to all the readers- may you have a space to return with stories and lives that comfort you, remind you of different times in your lives when you read certain stories, and give you a sense of fullness after each read. 

Full of my own personal filled with love thoughts and review with a brief sentence of what the book felt like to me visually. Sorting is on purpose and intentional. I love any feedback in order to make it even better :) <<less

Cleanse yourself of overbearing CEOs, obsessive yanderes, cold and low EQ snobs, insidious black bellies, mu*derous tyrants, and needy man children, and embrace the beauty... more>> that is the firm but fair, sweet, kind, healing and gentle male leads. On this list we stan men whom are not just excellent boyfriends but excellent men in general. I tried to only include MLs that were sweet and considerate to the FLs all the way through (no midway personality changes, no tsundere tendencies, etc.).  <<less
