I like distinctive characters or beautiful prose, including stories with privileged elites, irresistible charmers, strong female leads, nonhumans, dark and twisted characters, survival-game shows, fanfiction, toxic drama, couples in love, and pure fun.
Dubcon and Other Kinky Stuff
I like yandere characters, dark and obsessive types, domineering love, male chauvinism, toxic dynamics, twisted feelings, and clingy relationships. This is just my personal taste, so there aren't many fragile heroines or historical romance stories.
Niche, Underrated BG Romance
Basically, either novels with cliched premises but good writing and little buzz, or BG novels with niche topics or fresh ideas. I'll keep updating this list
Everyone Needs to Read About This Dark, Obsessive Top!
All BG! I love reading about gloomy, possessive men and sticky-sweet romances! I don't care whether the plot puts the man or the woman through the wringer, as long as it suits my tastes.
Male-Centered
I just love a sick, twisted, gloomy, possessive man. The male lead is a virgin.
Personal Favorites
Obsessive men, yandere men, gloomy men, forced love, domineering possessiveness, and toxic obsession
Romance
BG is the best! I'm Team Female Lead (straightens clothes, clears throat, speaks with confidence).
Specialists in Dark, Twisted Romance
A collection of twisted relationships: Mary Sues, everyone-falls-for-the-protagonist stories, brooding toxic love, coercive possession, love-hate tragedies, melodrama, and male rivalry love triangles. Love is most vivid when it leaves you in pieces.
Book Recommendations
Personal taste. The star ratings are random, just so I could post this.
BG Novels I've Finished
All kinds of tastes, mostly with chaste male leads. I don’t mind either way about the female lead. Ongoing list...
Well-Written Female Leads
Female leads with high likability, strength, intelligence, an eccentric wavelength, an S-type big-sister vibe, and everyone falling for them.
Brooding Ghostly Men
The ultimate feast
Novels I've Finished Over the Years (BG)
As the title says, some of these might be landmines (I’m just keeping a record)
Good Books, Good Books
Saved for later.
Some Compelling Love Triangles
Lately, I'm really into the brooding, twisted male lead archetype. Yang Mi, Yang Mi!
It’s My Fault I Love Yandere Pretty Boys
Personal tastes: I like pretty boys, little boys, and femboys, in short, handsome guys!! I'm picky about the writing and characterization, and I have a thing for younger men, forced romance, gloomy obsessive love, and unrequited love.
BG Romance-Focused Stories [1]
Reading log. Premise and setting matter more than prose. I love silly, sweet, melodramatic stories.
Feel-Good Stories with Female Leads, Saved for Myself
I like powerful, captivating female leads. No BL. I read all kinds of things, including various anime crossovers, so check the descriptions to avoid anything you don't like.
Give Me Brooding, Ghostly Men
A real male ghost: no redemption arc, just thoroughly eerie.
BG: Aristocratic Academy, School Life, Everyone Loves the Protagonist
I usually don't have many dealbreakers (/(°∞°)\), so I can't tell what counts as a dealbreaker.
Saved for Myself: Great Reads, Food for Thought, and My Kinks
A messy collection of stories with writing, plots, or themes that hit my buttons, made me think, or left me amazed and delighted.
Books I Love
A little bit of everything.
Books I Love
My tastes are a little eclectic. There's romance, male-male romance, and stories with no romance. These are some of the good ones I've discovered lately. I hope more people will like them as much as I do.
BG Stories with Male-Centered Plots
Stories I found on forums, plus my personal favorites. A content warning: some are pretty dark, with plots involving imprisonment and the like.

At first I was a little frustrated when I read it as a short story, but it turned out to be a multi-ending RPG, with a very East Asian atmosphere mixed with a Japanese feel... I really like this kind of mentally stable male protagonist who is crazy and mentally ill, and I also like this rare female protagonist who has a clear personality, can fight back and forth with the male protagonist, and has her own set of behavioral logic. Under the oppression of her native family, she has not become timid, but has changed into the character she is today... I completely believe that the male protagonist's love at first sight is not lust, and it is more convincing to me than most love stories on the market that have no beginning or end. And... He actually promised to let you be free and not interfere with each other, and he actually kept his word... I like to have a kind of confusion that I don't know how to live my life after I turned around in my mind and found that I couldn't find a replacement for a while. Even if there are rough guesses in each ending, there are many unexpected parts in the details, which not only satisfy the guesses, but also bring me many surprises. I think there will probably be a long period of time in the future because of [not being able to read texts that are as good as this one]
He Huaining is the kind of man who will move his right cheek towards the hot spring and let the hot spring slap him symmetrically ()
Please write a new article. I can't get enough of just such a short article [poor] [poor] [poor]
Oh my god, it's so exciting. This [poor] couple really wants to see their fanart… It's really touching!
What kind of Mr. And Mrs. Smith is this, so the male protagonist uses a fugitive to help the female protagonist curb her desire to kill? If the heroine kills the male protagonist, she will go to he. If she accidentally kills someone else, she will go to be.
Oh my God, I didn't expect it to be so beautiful before I clicked on it wwwwwww. When will the teacher write a new article? I've been crying.
I finished reading it in one sitting today and I feel that the author's portrayal of the heroine is great. Although I haven't tried other articles, but judging from this article... Corn Cat's writing power is very strong. The feeling of advancing chapter by chapter is very much like watching a TV series, like the process of gradual changes of emotions on the faces of the actors, the feeling of being angry at first, then overwhelmed and confused, and finally returning to determination. When I read the article, I felt that it was good that the author did not always focus on the appearance of the hero and heroine. I felt that writing too much would make it difficult to form a feeling for the heroine in my heart, and the helplessness of falling into the swamp at the same time as her. It's so realistic to portray the gradual collapse of daily school life from the perspective of the heroine. When I watched it, I kept thinking about letting the baby go (rolling all over the floor). She still has to take the college entrance examination (all I can think about is hhh). I'm going to kill the good or bad class teacher... This is how the old student Zhong looked (falling to the ground) In the later writing, I feel that the writing style is a little more mature and more natural. At first, I felt that it might be a little awkward for the characters to suddenly speak for a long time. Later, when describing the characters, there are more action-assisted descriptions and more communication. It's easier to immerse yourself in it, thinking about what the heroine will do. This mysterious and alluring feeling makes me can't help but click on the next chapter, but it also has shortcomings. Big shortcomings, I think some supporting characters are a little under-inscribed (like the deskmate, I think there is still a little less, and the characters are a bit stiff. Maybe, although I didn't ink when writing, he lacked his daily social circle or life, which led to the work The character is a bit heavier at the back, and after all, it's not a very important role. I think it does feel a bit like a Korean manga boy, a high school boy with a bit of a brain, who suddenly appears after work, a bit annoying and a bit embarrassing... But it does not affect the overall plot. In addition, the progressive feeling of imprisonment and the heroine's resistance are very real and comfortable. I really can't stand the JJ Stockholm-style heroine. Someone save me... Although I rarely read this type of love-and-kill novel, the boss wrote it well, and I read it in one sitting. Maybe a short story is suitable for the boss to write. The heroine is very real and lively, and the depressive anguish of a high school student is also good to read. When I read the article, I felt that the incandescent light was still on in the quiet classroom, the fan was blowing, and I was writing papers. There was a girl secretly taking a nap in the corner. What I also like very much is that the daily setting is very stable at the beginning. Most of jj's articles are so explosive at the beginning that I have a headache. The writing style seems very rigorous at the beginning, maybe because I am afraid of writing. Hh is a bit like suspense. Boss, you can also try the suspense genre. I also like to read. Please... I will order them all. The subsequent explosive point in the climax part is also very good, there is no sudden appearance, and there is no muddled part, so that the before and after are relatively integrated, there is no nonsense, but after watching it, I can slightly reminisce about the emotions after life and death. The heroine's explosive he made me feel more than a little happy. It's rare to see such a heartfelt short article. By the way, I don't want to spoil it too much, so I won't mention the content and plot. Corn Cat, I love you, I love you, I love you. ^3^ Try writing a modern short article. I think it may be more suitable for your taste than a fanfic. After reading too many fanfics, I prefer female protagonists with their own style and a stronger sense of reality. How about trying to write about girls with other styles? Maybe it will look good too. The heroine in the honeymoon chapter at the end is also endlessly cute, and the baby girl's behavior and collapse grow crazily at the border, which is very delicious. Yamiami. What would it be like if the author wrote a sequel about a heroine in a world without psychopaths? I'm curious, would she smash the water glass she had been staring at angrily many years ago? Will she still find a way to restrain her desires until she meets a madman in the world who can make her have a seizure... Corn Cat, write quickly (or I will hide in the manuscript box and look at you secretly)
I enjoyed watching it so much. When I watched it, the effect of the Orange Light game played in my mind. The four endings all went in a natural direction. It would be very interesting if it were made into a game! [Compare your heart][Oh oh oh]
Why don't you write a letter yet, madam [crying]
Dad, when will you publish a new article? I will follow you forever [Star Eyes]
