Can We Stay Entangled Forever?

Hair, fate, you and me.

Omnivorous, Top-Leaning

I read everything, mostly to keep track of what I've read or I'll forget. I lean toward top fans and mostly read stories from the top's perspective. I'll label weak tops and the like.

Personal Reread Notes 1

For easy reference. Anything without a special note has its original rating.

Transmigrate and Be Reborn

Transmigration and rebirth stories. Both historical and modern settings, with transmigration or rebirth as the main element.

Strong Female Leads, Beautiful Male Leads

I like female leads who are rich, powerful, influential, and capable. The male lead just needs to be pretty. A few don't quite fit, but they're all my type.

Some Personal Little Kinks

I don't like any kind of novel with a universally adored protagonist. This list has BL, BG, and GB. I personally enjoy some more obscure novels.

Favorite Romance, No-Couple, and Derivative Works

Keeping these for myself

Worth a Second Read: BG/BL/GB/No Pairing

I like couples who actually communicate, two strong leads, idealized characters, morally ambiguous characters, mutually exclusive relationships, and monogamous pairings. No eunuchs, please. If the characterization, plot, and writing are good enough, though, I can overlook anything.

[Romance] Book Recommendations, First Batch [Full]

Due to JJ's rating system, I can only give five stars in reviews. The other four-star ratings are genuine. Some are so old I can't remember much, so the comments are brief.

Brain-Off Sweet Romance

Invincible Mary Sue fiction. As long as it's sweet, that's enough. I just love a sweet little wife.

Level C
6Books0Follows1yUpdated

Girl X Boy, Female-Dominated Worlds, and Genderbending

A die-hard pure-love 1v1 sweet-romance fan. I'm not fixated on either lead, and I don't like everyone’s-favorite stories (too much borderline flirting).

Level B

Romance Novels I’ve Purchased in Full

Years of personal favorites, with great writing, plots, and character development.

Level C

Emperors and Empresses

A record of historical romances about emperors and empresses that I've finished and really enjoyed. Both leads are each other's first, and they get a happy ending. If you only read stories with chaste leads, these are for you.

Reading List 2

If it’s fully paid, it must have something worthwhile about it.

Pretty Good Reads

I've read a lot, and these are the books I think I'd read a second time

Level C

Delicious GB, GL, and BG, with a Little No-Female-Lead

I read most of these a long time ago, so I can only rate them based on my impressions. Many feature mutual firsts. GL is fine, but for romance novels, the male lead must be a virgin. The only exception I can accept is an NP story with one or two non-virgin men.

Novels Worth Rereading

For my own use, mostly romance

Level A

Female-Powered Feel-Good Fiction

Feel-good stories with strong heroines, told from the heroine's perspective. No stories where the hero is even stronger than the heroine!
