Ten Years of Reading Notes

A record of some great stories I've read on JJ. I love sweet romances and am a die-hard shipper. I'm happy with both relationship-focused and plot-driven stories. Older love interests, historical romance, food stories, and period dramas.

Here Are N Delicious Novels

I read all kinds of books, but for romance I only read stories with chaste male leads. I reread books and add reviews later.

Romance with a Male Lead C (Not a Strong Heroine Story)

I won’t include any author who’s written a story with a scumbag male lead. I can’t give five stars anymore. The heroine doesn’t have to be strong, but no female-dominance settings. Mostly sunny, cute heroines. The male lead must be pure in both body and heart.

Which Book Should I Add Next?

Romance-focused. A little casual reading log of recent reads. My opinions are subjective, with both praise and criticism. I care more about the writing and logic.

BG Books Worth Rereading Several Times

I love good writing, though my preferences are extremely subjective (highlighted). Mostly sweet romances with lots of relationship development. Clingy, lovey-dovey love is the best. Romance from the female lead's perspective. Reviews coming soon~

A Personal, Anything-Goes Reading List ^ ^

I’m a multigenre reader, but I prefer pure-love couples. This is my personal reading list, so I’m not responsible for content warnings. I only recommend niche books I’ve read and would reread. No huge hits.

BG: Secretly Delighted, Self-Convinced, and Love-Struck

As the title says, the female lead only has to coax him a little and he’s already grinning like a fool. Just a puppy, sigh. He’s like: “Don’t say that. I’m not trying to be a dog, I just have my own pace.”

A Hodgepodge of Books I’ve Read Over and Over

Includes all kinds of complicated relationships, such as pseudo-incestuous cousins, pseudo aunt and nephew, stepmother and stepson, and more, mixed with the innocent fluttering hearts of young boys and girls. The sweetness and tension are off the charts, absolutely delicious to ship!

Historical romance, fantasy, cultivation, and mysteries. Childhood sweethearts, reunions after long separations, chance encounters, young boys and girls, romantics, and forceful love.

Good Reads

BG romance. I love that heart-pounding, gut-wrenching feeling when reading. I'm especially into messy love-triangle showdowns, revenge-after-the-breakup arcs, dark and obsessive relationship dynamics, and some satisfying power fantasies

Level C

Historical Romance with Natural Relationship Development

Subtle emotional development, a clear progression from meeting to falling in love, and no out-of-the-blue romance. Couples with great chemistry and sexual tension. Strong heroines and heroes, including equally matched couples. Great for fans of the pairing.

Five-Star Historical Romance

Five-star historical romances. The leads are both well-developed, or the heroine really stands out. This isn't about her abilities, but about her personality and charisma.
