Romance Stories Worth Rereading (Slowly Updated)

All romance. I specifically note when the male lead isn't a virgin. I've reread every one of these after finishing it! Includes, but isn't limited to, forced love, sister-in-law stories, and nonhuman characters.

Recommendations from a Ten-Year Veteran Reader

Female-protagonist fan. I avoid stories that mistreat or humiliate women, or have a heavy-handed patriarchal attitude.

A Collection of My Favorite Books (BG)

My requirements are a male lead who's a virgin, while the female lead can be anything, and beautiful prose that's romantic or deeply moving. I'm open to all kinds of characterizations! No spoilers, just my thoughts after reading.

My Reading List [BG]

All my favorites! I’m a huge fan of Shu Ning and Fu Hua. I like well-written books, and most of the ones on this list are one-on-one romances. My baseline is that the female lead has no prior sexual experience, but the male lead can. My tastes can be a little questionable.

Great Plot or Super Shippable Couples (BG)

Books with obvious shortcomings that still manage to keep you reading to the end.

Level C
23Books2Follows2moUpdated

Cool-Headed, Unbothered Heroines Vs. Love-Struck, Yandere Heroes

A cool, pure-hearted heroine with a steady core, and a love-struck hero who goes off the rails. An intense push and pull between avoidant and anxious attachment styles, with sweetness and angst intertwined.

BG Bedtime Shorts (Including No Romance)

Choose according to your own tastes. I'm an omnivore, so be sure to distinguish between mass-produced sugary fluff and boring stories. Don't force yourself to read anything, and respect everyone else's preferences. Thanks.

Underrated BG Gems

Some stories have lots of saves but are still hard to find. You have to collect them gradually through recommendations and a bit of luck... Since they're niche, some may not be finished. Can't give them five stars!

Couldn’t Get Into These

The blurb and rating are fine, but I just can't get started. For clearing out my shelf, not a recommendation.

BG Romance Collection: My Favorites

Anything goes. It all depends on how well the author writes the emotional side. I'll flag any dealbreakers, and some stories do have unusual food preferences. This is purely my personal experience, so proceed with caution.
