The Angsty, Painful, Dog-Blooded Pursuit of His Wife That I Love
The last one disappeared for some reason and I was so mad I cried. Jinjiang said it didn’t pass review, so I’ll keep this one’s intro short. The five-star picks are all carefully selected.
Angst + Chasing Her Back + Male Suffering + Melodrama + Forced Love
I like stories where the male lead regrets his actions. I love melodrama and the groveling-after-losing-your-wife trope. For the five-star ones, check out my handpicked list.
Angsty Romance
Male characters get angst, though sometimes the female lead does too. I've been reading for 14 years; these are all books I thought were good, and there are plenty more I haven't added. Some may be limited by the era they were written in.
Old-School Love and Hate
I really love stories full of emotional push and pull, with a bittersweet mix of feelings, so I'm making a note of all the eclectic reads I thought were pretty good. Not for purity-focused readers: lots of potential squicks, and some old-school stories with women suffering.
Love Like Wallpaper: Forceful Taking
Most have some strong elements, mainly yandere and possessive characters, though some are simply about the strong bullying the weak.
Rereading When I Run Out of Books
When I can’t find anything new, I reread old favorites. Purely subjective.

Divine Stories About Winning Back Your Wife, With Extra Coercion
I love this so much! I love powerful characters going mad with love, especially with a little coercion thrown in. I could read this stuff forever. As long as the characters are compelling, I'll read it all.
Saved for Myself: The 100-Plus-Word Reviews Are Carefully Written
A toxic relationship, and a fantasy of using extreme individualism (with an exceptional heroine) to overcome systemic oppression (imperial power). Keep your wits about you, but it can still be fun to read.
Different Strokes for Different Folks
The female leads are relatively ordinary in looks, background, and talent. Most are angsty stories, with clear-headed heroines. (Includes matriarchal settings.)
Angsty Heterosexual Romance
Just a personal list for when I'm bored. Stories where everyone suffers, or where the men suffer badly, are all five stars in my book. I'm speechless at how restrictive Jinjiang's rating system is.
Great Romance Fiction
Stories I absolutely love. I've reread them several times.
Completed BG Stories
Few or no submissive-wife tropes, distinctive writing, plots, or characters, no male-lead obsession, and independent characters (some lean toward strong female leads). Choose the extras with care.
Books Worth Reading Twice
My only hard limit is that the male lead must be sexually pure.
Palace Intrigue 6
Farming
Yandere BG
The characterizations are compelling. I like yandere male leads who turn dark.
Great Historical Romance!!!
A little something for my particular tastes~
Great Historical Romance on Lujiang
Stories on Lǜjiang that deserve four or five stars. Any genre; look up the content warnings yourself. I’m open to anything.
I Love Seeing Men Get Emotionally Tortured
The main theme is that the heroine doesn't like the hero
Please Recommend More Cold-Hearted, Unfeeling Heroines
If the heroine falls for the hero too easily, I feel she loses all her appeal as a character.
Pure Historical Romance with a Palace Consort as the Female Lead
The female lead is a local, with no transmigration or other golden fingers
Reading List Created on 250613
Most of these are books whose titles ring a bell, including ones I read a long time ago.
Extreme Love
I really love this kind of mad, almost psychotic, all-consuming love. Every male lead has eyes only for the female lead and can't let go of anyone else.
The Ultimate Love Triangle
Male rivalry for the female lead

I shed a few tears for the heroine and Dr. Gu
Before the heroine left the palace, I always thought it would be Yang Heng's hero. Yang Heng chased his wife to the crematorium, but I didn't expect it to be Tang Xu. Tang Xu, a big wolf dog who will die without the heroine, is so cute, and he is very clean, haha, very happy, I am very happy to watch and feel their happiness, spread flowers!
It's such a pity that the male protagonist is not Gu Huaian
I actually want to take care of the if line between Gu and the heroine.
So well written! Damn, I stayed up all night to read this novel, it was worth it! Go to sleep!
It would be great if there was an if Xiao Gu TT woo woo
It's the most exciting when you pull it
I stayed up late to watch it, I loved it so much
I feel like I missed some details. Is Yunmu so angry knowing that Tinglan was born in the outer room?
God, I really like the character of the heroine, and I feel sorry for her plight.
