As long as the writing is good, I'll read boy-girl romance or no-CP stories. Forced romance / healing / harem / deep, painful love / ...
Finished Reads and Reviews ^_^
I like BG, happy endings, chaste male leads, and completed stories. I prefer 1v1; if a story doesn't fit, I'll say so. For five-star books, see my other list: all five stars.
Great Novels with Intense Romance!
Highly emotional / The leads are a perfect match and so fun to ship / The story stirs up all kinds of feelings / Lots of tension and push-and-pull / Truly moving stories (reposting prohibited)
BG Books Worth Rereading Several Times
I love good writing, though my preferences are extremely subjective (highlighted). Mostly sweet romances with lots of relationship development. Clingy, lovey-dovey love is the best. Romance from the female lead's perspective. Reviews coming soon~

A record of some great stories I've read on JJ. I love sweet romances and am a die-hard shipper. I'm happy with both relationship-focused and plot-driven stories. Older love interests, historical romance, food stories, and period dramas.

Will the If line be updated? I haven't seen enough 😭 😭 😭
Please update if! I finished reading this book without realizing it. I was a little resistant to seeing it adapted into a film and television before, but it turned out to be a really good read. It really has nothing to do with the two people in the film and television. Fang Muyang is really a very good male protagonist in period dramas, he is artistic, capable of work, and has a good figure. I like the heroine. Although the environment is harsh, her family treats her well. She is a little girl who grew up in love. And very motivated! I really want to make progress! So cute. A very special heroine baby. To be honest, the sisters and husbands in the movie and TV series are so charming. I was looking forward to it before reading it. But after reading it, I found it very boring. Two people who don't open their mouths don't have as much sexual tension and cp feeling as in the drama. I even think they might as well not be together in the end, it's too forced. It's really not like the previous development to have a he. It's still Ni and Fang who make people feel soft-hearted!
I didn't expect there would be a side story, it was such a surprise
If line is so fragrant, please update it
If line together! Together!
The if line looks great, keep writing, okay?
Damn, can you write more sometime?
