I read both BG and BL, and I have a soft spot for stories where the man gets hurt. I can’t stand coercive scenes that disrespect the female lead.
Some Great Books I Bought the Full Version Of
Historical romance and court intrigue, xianxia cultivation, equally matched leads, wuxia jianghu, Western fantasy, ensemble casts, empresses, female officials, empowering stories about strong women, female-led stories, modern romance, and fantasy romance
My Personal Archive of Books I Started Paying for but Didn't Fully Subscribe To
Putting these here so they don’t take up space in my favorites. Brief notes on why I stopped reading, purely because they weren’t for me. I haven’t bought the full books, so my ratings on this list don’t reflect the books themselves.
My 2026 Top Historical Romance Picks
My top historical romance novels of 2026: a cool, powerful minister who dotes on only one person; a young heir who has been plotting his devotion for ages; and couples who fall in love after marrying first.
I Absolutely Love These! Romance
BG romance novels I’ve read more than once! Historical romance, xianxia, modern romance, Western fantasy, interstellar, ABO… I especially love childhood friends, rekindled love, mutual pining, and a few fake-death and rival-to-lover tropes.
On My Nth Reread
Good stuff, love it.
Proud/Gentle/Ghostly Men × Gentle/Proud/Strong-Willed Girls
Abbreviated names: tsundere / gentle / ghost / distinctive personality. Desperately looking for more top-tier, kink-focused reads. Still searching. (I absolutely love beautiful men.)
Gentle or Husband Material
I made this list of male lead types ages ago, but I've forgotten most of what the reading experience was like.
Puppy-Like Male Leads, Gentle Male Leads, and Little Suns
Romance, from the female lead's perspective.
Fantasy and the Supernatural ①
A collection of fantasy novels with romance that I've read
So Good!!!
Never gets old
Dear Gentle Male Leads
If you love the gentle, devoted, refined-and-gentle type, dive right in!!! (Ahem, only historical romance here.) Four stars means highly recommended; three stars means good for passing the time.
An 11-Year Reader's List of God-Tier BG Novels
This list is only for incredible novels so good that even a guy who's only into virginal male leads can keep coming back to them in every season! I have over 10,000 novels in my collection, and I'll update this list daily with new gems!
Romance Reads (Some Chapters Locked to Subscribers)
I don't read niche-specific genres, angsty stories, or male-perspective stories. Stories involving childbirth will be marked. Ratings are based on the author's skill, the genre, and my personal taste. Includes reviews. Updated and replaced from time to time.
A Few
Some books
Well-Written Historical BG Romance, Happy Endings and Devoted Couples
Xianxia, ensemble casts, mystery-solving, sweet romance, revenge, childhood friends, episodic stories. These are all books I'd reread. Strongly recommended for BG fans who love historical romance.
Books I Like
Stories I thought were good
A Chaotic Mix, Incredibly Good
Both BL and straight romance. I'm partial to stories where the gong is head over heels for the shou, and the same goes for straight romance.
Bookshelf 2
Saving these for later, though I might not read them
Historical Romance
Really good.
Top Picks
My favorites!
For Personal Use (Female-Protagonist Reading Log)

Xianxia Stories I Love
A collection of personal favorites
Strong Female Leads
