Free stories I picked up here and there
Hidden Gems
Not hugely popular, but pretty good
① Free Reads I’ll Finish Sooner or Later (BL)
They're free now, so you'd be missing out if you didn't read them. Got any recommendations? Leave a comment and let's support the authors who write for love! [This list is full, please visit list ②]
BL Career Novels
BL stories with detailed, professional depictions of the protagonist's job. Not crime investigation or showbiz stories.
Readable to the End
The characters, writing, plot, and pacing are all good. The protagonists are at least as smart as I am, and have above-average morals. Four stars because I can't give them five.
Beautifully Written: Sad Stories Hit Harder
No book is perfect, but every book here has something irreplaceable to offer, whether it’s the plot, characters, or ideas. A place to return to when I run out of things to read
Industries
There are 360 trades, and every one can lead to success.
Cuncun's Personal BL Favorites
Mm-hmm.
Handpicked BL Novels
A real mix of tastes.
Omnivorous Reader
Wandering endlessly through the delicious sea of books.
A Jinjiang Living Fossil
Some old-school Jinjiang novels
Some Rare Character Types I Really Like W
It feels like the creative climate is getting worse and the moral standards are getting higher. There are fewer and fewer interesting character setups... I started this list for To Offer a Salted Fish to Master, and I like A Jiao.
A Collection of Mature Men
My own, not especially rigorous collection of danmei with mature male characters. Mostly urban stories. The collection may be incomplete. I recommend opening the relevant authors' profiles ().
Two Powerful Leads
The plot is well written, with a variety of industries and two strong leads. (Couldn't give it five stars??)
Fully Completed Series
I'm an omnivore with no particular preferences. I can't handle awkward writing or really over-the-top melodrama. My priorities are writing > characterization ≥ plot. Feel free to recommend books in the comments.
Hidden-Gem BL Stories Under 100,000 Words
Some are obscure, but genuinely good. I do not provide content warnings ><
2026 Annual List
A roundup
My Personal Reading List
Plot > writing > characterization. I prefer stories with strong career arcs and plot-driven narratives. There's a huge overlap with my personal top 100 (since I rated them all myself), so this is basically a repost of my ratings.
Handpicked, Absolutely Delicious BL Fiction
Most are wish-fulfillment and sweet stories. I have a high tolerance for potential triggers, so I don't take responsibility for flagging them. Some are niche and some are popular, but I genuinely think they're all good.
Great Free Reads (Updated from Time to Time)
They're probably all decent. I haven't read some of them, either. They're free, so they all get five stars. This list is no help as a guide, so check the warnings before reading. My personal tastes are all over the place; I'll read anything.
A Free Archive With Some Blunt Reviews
I can be pretty sharp-tongued, sorry. Fanfiction without romance > fanfiction with romance > no-couple = pure romance ≥ romance.
Original Danmei Reading Log 2
I prefer the shou in CPs. No insulting either partner, no breaking up or reversing the pairing, and no self-inserted female fantasies. Any subject is fine, except pregnancy, which has been moved out of the list.
Boys' Love
Mainly bottom protagonists

A life of daily necessities, smooth and ordinary happiness. Perhaps many years later, I will remember the 23-year-old late summer when I read it more than the story itself. Shuttle between the rental house and the company, crouching on the suitcase to type on the keyboard, writing, reading papers, calculating data, curling up on Bawang Cha Ji's sofa to sleep at noon, being tempered by life like the protagonists in the story. I will remember when I picked up my phone to read a novel in the middle of the night, and my usually taciturn roommate suddenly asked you if you are leaving, when, are you leaving this week? I couldn't see anything clearly in the dark, but I could hear the choking in her words. At this moment, I was lying on my back on a hard bed that was comparable to a train sleeper, crying. I actually slept on this bed that was so hard that it hurt to turn over and I was covered in bruises for two months, haha.
I couldn't stop crying after reading everyone's comments. Firstly, this article is so heart-warming, and the characters of the protagonists are very attractive and moved me. Secondly, I am going back to Shenzhen today, and I will go to work in a few days. I will probably be a class teacher for the first time, which makes me depressed, anxious and unprepared for the past few days. The protagonists' attitude towards work and their views on life are very touching to me now. I just received a call from my mother about her concern and I can't help but feel bitter. I think I will write this article for the second time. I can count the second articles I have written so far. They are well written and natural, just like real people and things. Thank you, the contractor.
To what extent do I love Teacher Chang's workplace literature - it's to the extent that every time I suffer in a crappy job and feel like I can't find any hope, I have to reread the story of Qian Suo and Chen Gong to remind myself not to mess up.
I read it in one go. From the planning of the nursing home in 15 years to the completion in 20 years, they must have experienced the ups and downs in their relationship. It is so romantic. I wish you eternal happiness in the parallel world.
It's so beautiful and it's free [please]
I just started reading Danmei in 2019. I got tired of reading other articles on the website and came here from the recommendation point. I read three books in a row on the author's main page and I'm still not satisfied! Kicked me into the pit of professional writing. I started well with good writing, but I was spoiled for my taste! Looking back 25 years ago, it's still fine chaff. White Moonlight is still the same as before, without any pretense. It's great.
The first time I've written it, I've finished spreading the flowers [Spreading Flowers]. It was written ten years ago. Time flies so fast. The couple has been together for a long time. [Let me be healthy]
Super pretty! ! ! It's completely catchy. I thought the writing was very interesting at first. The more I read, the more I had the urge to read it completely. Professional articles still need to be written by professionals, hahahaha, and especially as time goes by, when I encounter these articles that have been separated by even decades, I feel an inexplicable emotion [Prick-eared Rabbit Head] Once again, I lament the greatness of the author. No matter how long you immerse yourself in good articles, you will never lack a different kind of deliciousness≡ω≡
I will always be moved by the long-lasting love between two people. I can't bear to part with it [poor] [poor]
I don't know how many times I've played it, I feel happy every time I watch it again
