BG Reading List for My Own Reference
I like 1vN, men getting hurt, faked deaths, quick transmigration, conquest plots, crematorium arcs, and love rival showdowns. I'm an omnivore who loves melodrama, emotional push and pull, unrequited love, and power reversals.

Time to Show Off My Taste
Sharing some good reads. I like all sorts of things and don't tag for deal-breakers. I'll also include some that aren't as good but have their highlights (this is just my personal taste).
GBG Romance Recommendations
I have a soft spot for making men suffer, groveling exes, and loyal, love-struck men. Cute stuff: men taking birth control, male homewreckers, and romance with nonhumans (the fluffy kind). Deal-breakers: imprisonment and disrespect toward the heroine.
Feel-Good Female-Led Stories and Power-Ups
For personal use and recommendations. I’ve gathered some of my favorite stories with female leads. Most are feel-good power fantasies or progression stories. I especially value good pacing and characters who don’t suddenly get stupid.
An Ordinary Reading List
Everything good and readable goes here. I prefer novels with tight logic, strong plots, and fantasy elements, whether they're plot-focused or feature an overpowered protagonist. I don't like formulaic stories.
Great Plots and Ships, Plus Author Recommendations
Few dealbreakers, complicated tastes, mostly fantasy. I usually recommend just one book per author, and I'll give the authors my honest critique. My top pick is at the very bottom.
Modern BG Romance with a Groveling Ex
I don't go for stories where the guy gets too little angst, or where the female lead suffers too much. Basically, if it's not to my taste, I won't recommend it. Stories that are just okay might still make the list.
BG Romance
A big jumble of everything; I read all sorts of genres. (Some four-star picks aren't just four-star stories. That darn JJ won't let me give too many five stars.) If you share my tastes, feel free to recommend something!
Stories Where Men Suffer
I like stories that emotionally torment the male lead. As long as he gets put through the wringer, it's a good book to me. I'm not a heroine fan. The writing comes first.
A Roundup of the Mary Sue BG Stories I've Read

Give Me All the Angsty, Forced-Love Drama
Possessive love, forced romance, and a whole lot of melodrama. Just put the male lead through the wringer; whether the heroine loves him or not is beside the point.

This article is one of those novels that I read again every other year. It's so gorgeous. It's not about the writing style, but the strong emotion under the line drawing technique, it's so delicious... I often see uu saying that the male protagonist is cheap, and I don't understand why I hate the male protagonist and suddenly fall in love with him. This time I have a new understanding after reading it carefully. Personal analysis (random analysis) the male protagonist's love is real, and he even fell in love with the female protagonist involuntarily from the beginning. But the hatred of the male protagonist is also real. He is jealous of the female protagonist and hates her. Not only because the heroine represents the light and the four halls that represent the starting point of his unfortunate life, but also because he hates himself and does not believe that anyone loves him. He has no way to love the heroine before avenging his parents and washing away the past humiliation. Belittling and hating the heroine has become a necessary way for him to improve his current self-awareness and construction, and it is also a means of self-protection. When the heroine dies, the hatred has no place to settle and gradually dissipates, but the love has nowhere to hide. It is exposed nakedly and can no longer be stopped from growing wildly. Gave him love when he most longed for mana, Gave him magic power when he longed for love the most. Very be, like it very much... (Very subjective, the male protagonist is a scumbag, run away when you meet him)
I have read it three times, and this one is really the top one in my mind. Because this is a great book that makes you fall into a trap and chase after it. Sisters, do you have any articles of the same type that you can recommend? !
The author is simply a genius. My own understanding is that he uses two perspectives from the beginning, including the last chapter, which is fragmented and full of absurd feelings, just like the love between these two people.
In the finale of the third episode, Zhi Xiu should have gotten Mu Xiang by force, and then he had an inner monologue saying that he lost her love forever because he did something Mu Xiang didn't like. I got someone but I didn't get love. Moreover, Mu Xiang's murderous intention towards Zhi Xiu comes from his annihilation of the world. As long as he keeps talking and says that he will never do bad things in the future, he will listen to Mu Xiang. If he pursues his wife again, there is a high probability that they can get back together. The bad thing is that the male protagonist does not have the long mouth to confess that he is willing to be a good person for Mu Xiang. OP ending, if the male and female protagonists don't talk too much, it should be that the male protagonist will tie the female protagonist to his side forever, and they may have children in the future. The grudge end. However, the male protagonist and the female protagonist have been together for a long time, and the female protagonist realizes that the male protagonist does not do bad things except hang around her. Maybe she will try to accept him. It would be great if there is a side story. It will be sweet for a few chapters.
I've been reading it for a few years, and I fully subscribed to it. I lost my previous account, and I only bought the last chapter with my new account. Come and write a review, don't scold me. . . Although the author has not finished writing, the character design is already very full and complete. A simple deduction can give you a rough follow-up: the two will become a pair of mortal enemies. Personally, I think it is impossible for the two of them to reconcile if they talk too much. Even if Muxiang hears Zhixiu say that he will never kill anyone again or fall in love with him again, she may be touched, shaken, and soften for a moment. But the resentment in her previous life was too deep, and she would always be filled with hatred and fear when facing samatha practice. She will want to die, but she will definitely not commit suicide, because she is actually a very timid girl who is afraid of pain (in her previous life, she would clamor to be annihilated every day when she was already dead and had no way out). If Zhixiu doesn't get Mu Xiang's love, he will definitely not be able to suppress his bloodthirsty and cruel nature over a long period of time. He has no empathy to begin with and will probably become a great lord and tyrant like in his previous life. Coupled with the "betrayal" of the new master? With the power of the original bloodline, he may even be more cruel than the previous life (but he probably will not do these things in front of Mu Xiang again). The ending is probably that Mu Xiang will be imprisoned by Zhi Xiu, and Zhi Xiu will be careful to please her, but Mu Xiang won't give him a good look (he may try to resist in the early stage, but will become numb in the later stage), and Zhi Xiu will repeatedly do it to her to confirm possession if he doesn't win her heart. There is a high probability that Zhixiu will eventually find a way to keep Muxiang young forever (similar to how he kept her body in the previous life). After knowing that Muxiang will not love him, it is impossible to accept Muxiang's natural death (leaving him). The two of them will live forever. Some other speculations: The two may have children, because Zhixiu knows that Mu Xiang likes children, and this may even be a means for him to please Mu Xiang. But if they really have children, Mu Xiang will not look at them because of Zhixiu's bloodline, and Zhixiu is indifferent to other people. So... The child's outcome is probably not going to be much better. .
Based on a recommendation from a friend, I'm currently using it three times. Let me just talk about my thoughts when I first read it. When I first saw the perspective of the male protagonist, I was actually a little surprised by the two perspective writing, and I continued to read it despite being entangled. The whole story is almost a psychological description, and I also found it interesting to see two different perspectives on the same thing based on these inner activities. Especially in the later stages, the love and hate, beautification and disgust, the paranoia of the character and the sense of separation before and after reminded me of Mishima Yukio's "Forbidden". The psychological description of the young man and his wife in "Love". So after the abrupt ending, I felt confused inside. As for Sanshu, a large part of it is that I really like the twisted feelings that linger between the two. Likewise, I did not read this novel with Sans, so I was very addicted to the relationship between the two and felt refreshed after reading it. The ending is very unexpected, and it is also a rare open ending. Although it is a pity that I did not see their final story, I also read some of the postscript. Since it is the author's choice, I will respect it. Hard work.
The be ending recognized by this star does not mean that all the damage will be wiped out after a comeback.
The last chapter is too fragmented, and it is too easy to understand. It is intended to show that they meet again at this time, but the two people's stances are thinking about completely different things. If it were a movie, this method would be very expressive, but as a novel, it is too difficult to read.
This ending, this ending, I only see the pain of the heroine
I can't wait to watch the ending directly. This... Although it is quite dramatic, it really sucks! An open ending is equivalent to not writing anything at all. Not only the foreshadowing of the world view and the supporting characters are taken away, but also the main plot of the male and female protagonists themselves are not taken away. It is too outrageous. Recommended for readers who just want to enjoy watching clips of male abuse (the heroine is sometimes really stupid and can't accept the silly and cute heroine). Readers who want to read a complete story can avoid lightning...
