I love Su-type, universally adored bottom protagonists. My limit is a protagonist who leans toward being the bottom. I won't read or include poorly written novels. Productive alphas and people who prefer tops, please steer clear. You're not welcome here.
Bottom-Leaning / Bottom-Fan Favorites: A Treasury of Great Stories
My preferences change all the time, but I like feel-good, sweet, satisfying stories, cute slice-of-life fluff, and irresistible protagonists. A firm supporter of cute cat, dog, rabbit, and piggy shous. My dealbreakers: the gong must be a virgin, and no pretty-boy gongs.

[Feel-Good Reads] No Romance/Boys' Love
For no-CP stories, I'm picky about the protagonist: they have to be good-looking and powerful, and I don't want nonsensical protagonist abuse. For danmei, I prefer the bottom: cute, beautiful, strong, or handsome bottoms are my thing.

After picking through so many, I realized there are quite a few good stories.
Personal Collection
Check the comments and rating sections for things to avoid
Adored Bottoms
The whole story focuses on the bottom's personal growth or career, or the bottom has a lot of charisma.
Mary Sue Shou
The ones that suit my tastes
Strong Bottoms, Weak Bottoms, Dominant Bottoms, Charming Bottoms, Cute Bottoms, Beautiful Bottoms
Moderately seme-focused, mildly uke-obsessed, and wholeheartedly supportive of the uke. Not recommendations, just a record. I cannot guarantee that there are absolutely no dealbreakers, since authors can change, and I tend to skim-read…
Farming Fiction
For my own reference
Period-Era Fiction (Boys' Love)
Period stories about being reborn or transmigrating into a book (pure love)
A Survival Guide for Right-Position Fans
Stories where the bottom takes charge. Not comfort-focused. I love heroines and bottoms with strong inner cores who take control. Either sweet romance, or the top becomes a dog. No top getting more of the spotlight than the bottom
Infrastructure, Imperial Exams, Power Struggles, Business Wars, and Tech Progression
Just as the title says.
Farming and Infrastructure Building: The Comfort of a Steady Life
Farming and development stories, highly recommended if you subscribe to the full book! Includes ancient, xianxia cultivation, period, and various other settings.
Keeping Track of Great Danmei
Great stories that kept me company over the years. The best post-apocalyptic novel: After the End of the Cambrian Period
Protagonist-Centric Stories for Protagonist Fans
Mostly romance with a female lead and no-CP stories with a female lead. I don't read top-centric stories, romance with a male lead, or no-CP stories with a male lead. I also don't read GB (where the female lead has a penis).

The writing is great, and the family, friendship, and career lines are all great. I firmly stand for the author's official CP. In addition to writing articles that are not about things, this writer Xiao Chen is so pitiful. He looks like an NPC standing in a broken thatch shed in the village or in the woods, waiting for Xiao Gu to trigger the scene and have a few lines. There is nothing outstanding about him in the whole text, only paranoia and naivety. One sentence in the last few chapters mentions that he has strong learning ability and can complete a job well. This is not highlighted in the early stage. But Deng has too many scenes. He is mature, stable and dares to take on the responsibility. He gives Xiao Gu trust, power, resources and connections, and Xiao Gu stands by his side to protect him in times of trouble. But he is not the author of the attack. I have an age difference, but one of the non-partners is under 18 years old. This is my personal reason. I once met a thin girl of thirteen or fourteen years old on the train. She was pregnant and said that her boyfriend was 24 years old but too busy. She was afraid of being scolded by her parents when she went home. I was also worried about how my parents would not scold her. Later I felt that something was wrong. Is that man still a human being? The little girl is ignorant. Is he a fool? When Deng Chang was 27 years old, he pretended to be drunk and confessed his love to 15-year-old Xiao Gu. From then on, when I saw him talking about coming to my office, and then watching Xiao Gu blow a rainbow fart, I was stunned. The 29-year-old Deng Chang pretended to be drunk again and confessed his love to the 17-year-old Xiao Gu. After being rejected, he said that he had given up. The writing is great, and the career line of the story is exciting. If it weren't for the restrictions on writing later, it might be even more enjoyable. If Deng Chang is the author's designated attack, then it would be great. If Xiao Gu travels through time and turns out to be 18 years old, that would be perfect.
Uncomfortable... It seems like we are together, and it seems like we just hit it off, and it seems like we have nothing to do with the other person, and it seems like we are in love in our hearts. There is always a third person in the story of two people...
After reading it, I found that period stories are more interesting with themes written around the 1980s. It is not easy for those born in the 1970s to survive. Like many people, I might as well remove the cp from this article. I generally don't read articles without cp. I always feel that relationships are an important part of life. No matter how perfect a protagonist is, if he lacks emotional perfection, something is missing. Until I finish reading this article. Xiao Gong's role is really too few. Not only is there little plot, but there is also very little emotional resonance. As a result, it feels like the two of them are living together in the end. Although Xiao Gong's setting is excellent, Lichun is even better, and it completely overshadows Xiao Gong's excellence. I won't say much more, I look forward to the author's future writings going even further in terms of emotional description.
Although Deng Chang is very good, I think he is like that friend around everyone who chats very speculatively. Although the chat is pleasant, in fact, there is no love for him. When faced with his emotional appeal, you will feel that you cannot accept it, and you will feel regretful about this friendship.
Deng Chang is really good, his career is no problem, and the writing is really good. It's just that the love line feels like it's not as good as not having one at all.
Great plot, but Deng's confession caught me off guard
Ah, secretly, I like Lao Deng [make me healthy]
It's so beautiful [crying] [crying] [crying]! ! Three brushes are completed... I will continue to brush four and five in the future... This article is really good to read... I wish Lichun and the others will continue to be happy in another real world [red heart]
I have read the author's book. The author's writing style is really good.
Goose goose goose goose hahahahahahaha, after reading it~ In fact, the author is too modest, this emotional line is quite natural! If it's not awkward, it doesn't mean you can't write emotional lines.
