I Always Think of You in Spring

Handsome Bottoms, Cool Bottoms, Heartthrob Bottoms, and More

Everything is based on the gong being handsome (if not, I’ve forgotten; I don’t like muscular bottoms, and I’m fine with both handsome and pretty gongs).

BL Recommendations

For BL, I prefer pretty male tops and handsome, cool, youthful, or straight male bottoms. I don’t like pretty-boy bottoms, and I don’t have a preference for either role. I only read stories where both leads are each other’s only partners, and I mostly like sweet romances. Just my personal opinion.

Little Sweet Treats (In My Opinion)

Light, sweet reads, in my opinion. I'm an omnivore, so I enjoy switch couples. Mostly BL, but some BG too.

Absolutely Fantastic, Highly Recommended

They dote on each other; strong leads who are evenly matched (for the most part); 1v1. Strong-and-strong pairings are my main course, but I’ll try a little of everything for dessert. Confident, bold, clever characters are my number one.

Some Angsty Boys’ Love Stories About Rekindled Romance

Basically, it’s all melodrama. A little angst is fun, but the more devastating, the better.

My Favorites

A gorgeous reading list for dog lovers (fans of dog-ification, older love interests, devoted protagonists, intense possessiveness, silly sweet romances, slow-burn courtship, and absolutely no secondary couples or bugs)

Full-Subscription MVP Series

I'll read anything if the writing is good

Campus Novels

Both high school and college settings

Some of my favorites, just saved for reference. A few may contain minor spoilers.

Addictive Sweet Danmei Stories

So captivating! I finished it in one sitting, and I can still go back and reread it, savoring every bit~

My Personal Treasure Trove of BL

My favorite BL novels. There's a mix of popular, moderately popular, and niche titles, and I'm still working on the list. The ratings are just for fun, and I had to give them four stars. I'm leaving out the hugely popular ones.

The Moonlight Under My Pillow: Handpicked Gems

A collection of danmei novels I absolutely love (some of the ones I bought in full are here). They're all great, but I can't give them five stars QAQ I hate you, Jinjiang QAQ

Realistic Fairy-Tale BL

Life is a mix of sweet and sour

Bottom-Led or No Romance, Completed and Fully Read

Highly subjective recommendations of good books, including sickly characters, adored-by-all characters, charmers, beautiful but tragic characters, mindless fluff, tearjerkers, and all kinds of other stories

Saved

Mostly pure romance, with a little straight romance. Sweet, silly, plot-driven, and heartwarming.

I Really Love These

Stories I got totally hooked on, each with something that really stands out

BL Reading List

Both dominant and submissive leads are fine. These are purely subjective opinions, and I prefer couples who are evenly matched. Looking for recommendations with dual perspectives, first-person narration, switching, or selfcest. No coddled spouses or silly beauties, please.

Basically, Lots of Couples

Favorite couples and light, cute little sweet treats. Some focus on romance, others on plot. I'll update whenever I feel like it. These are just my personal tastes, and I don't follow the authors. If there's any controversy, do your own research!
