Synopsis

The story only begins after the big shot dies... You think you control everything, but you don't know you're just a pawn in someone else's game. A game within a game: who is the real mastermind behind it all? Bottom: Night-blind, with an extraordinary sense of smell; a true big shot, an experienced player, and effortlessly seductive. Top: Former mercenary commander, an all-around top ten talent; a tough, iron-blooded exterior hiding the heart of a pure and innocent flower, teased until he bleeds. Content warnings: 1. Younger top, bottom protagonist, mature bottom. 2. Includes suspense and future sci-fi. No supernatural elements, and no ghosts. 3. Entirely fictional setting, grounded in reality. Theme:

Books I Think Are Good

I read all sorts of books and don't have many dealbreakers. The main thing is that they're good. I read both danmei and romance. Just for my own use.

Eclectic Reader’s Picks (Personal Reread List)

I tend to focus on the main character. I like mutual love. I don't mind whether the top or bottom is humiliated. Everything else is fine. Every story on this list is one I've read at least twice.

A World of Irresistible Bottoms

Mild bottom preference, moderate bottom appreciation. This is my first list, and many stories might have things some readers dislike. Feel free to add warnings in the comments.

Original BL Reading Notes 1

CPJ, bottom-leaning. No insulting the other half of the ship, no breaking up or reversing the ship, and no self-insert romance. Any genre is fine. Pregnancy is a hard no.

Some Hits, Some Misses: Very Subjective

I’m a one-true-pairing fan who prefers the uke’s perspective. These are all uke-focused stories with one-to-one pairings and no cheating. Most of the ones I haven’t fully subscribed to are missing the bonus chapters.

Strong Bottoms / Ordinary-Person Bottoms / Handsome Bottoms / Infinite Flow, and More

No delicate, helpless beautiful bottoms, no overly idealized bottoms. Most of the bottoms have fairly normal personalities. I like snarky bottoms, strong bottoms, short-tempered handsome bottoms, and tops who feel nonhuman or vividly alive.

Underrated Bottom-Centric Wish-Fulfillment Reads (Slowly Updating)

The rankings are hard to stomach, so I'm digging up obscure gems and sampling a bit of everything. Strong preferences for bottoms, and I'm a die-hard bottom fan. I don't judge stories by the author's personal views. Everyone has different triggers, so mind your own.
