Bittersweet Breakup and Reconciliation Stories
The protagonist pursues their love interest first, then gives up and lets the love interest pursue them instead. Four stars because I can't give it five. I'm always running out of things to read, so please recommend similar novels too (I'm desperate).
The Finest Fare
The writing isn't amateurish, and the stories are smooth reads with no deal-breakers.
Great Stories I've Unearthed
I like stories with everyone falling for the protagonist and gloomy, obsessive characters. Every now and then, I also enjoy something light and wholesome with normal people.
Recap
Good for a reread
Memories of Youth ①
A collection of school-life romance novels I’ve read.

The Culmination of My Personal Tastes
Mostly strong female leads, male rivals competing for her, pseudo-incest, nonhuman characters, Mary Sues, and sweet little romances. Some reviews may be out of place, so I didn't include them. Check the star ratings and scores together.
Romance Worth Savoring
My incomplete reading log for 2026. Every one of these hit me right where it hurts (not really). There’s a bit of everything, and they’re all worth revisiting. Just my personal taste.
A Book List
Completed novels I personally think are really good
My Public List of Fully Purchased Books
I’m an omnivore when it comes to genres. I’ll read a bit of everything, and most of it is pretty good.
Nothing but the Best
BG: Keeping track of the stories I've read that I thought were pretty good.
Bla Bla Bla
My personal reviews after reading, for me to look back on later.
[Contemporary Romance] Urban Stories with Male Leads in Unusual Careers
Sweet stories. The male leads work as owners of coffee shops and other businesses, bloggers or streamers, comic artists or writers, chefs, brokers, construction contractors, and online voice actors (CVs). Please support the official release.
Atmospheric Prose
BL and romance. These are just my personal impressions. All sorts of genres, but they all have rather distinctive writing styles.
A Private Corner for Ramblings on Partially Read Books
(Extremely subjective, proceed with caution.) I have too many books, so I'm keeping notes here to remember them. Some are good, some are bad. I'll write whatever comes to mind. If I'm harsh, it's because the book was bad.
All the Romance Novels on This List Are Ones I've Finished
Pretty subjective and eclectic. I made this list to make it easier to revisit old favorites. The star ratings don’t reflect the writing quality. Five stars just means it really hits my personal preferences.

Reading Log
Four stars means it's pretty good. Five stars means it's worth subscribing to and rereading. I'm more particular about characterization and writing style.
Childhood Friend or New Arrival: Childhood Friend Wins
I'm really a sucker for loyal childhood-friend types, and only occasionally go for someone who shows up later (?). Just keeping simple notes. If a book hits one of my dealbreakers, I'll add it here once I've bought it, with a note.
Romance Between Living People (Underrated BG Gem)
Highly rated, complete stories with good writing and sound logic. I think every one of these is better than the modern romance books on the rankings. A real mix, especially fond of proud male leads who bow their heads for love.
Worth Staying Up All Night For
Both ongoing and completed stories
BG Sukisuki
I’m an omnivore and will read anything. It all comes down to the writing. I recommend most of the books here. Not giving something a full rating doesn’t mean it’s not good! I’ll explain why in the notes.
For Pure BG Fans: Enjoy, You're Guaranteed to Be Satisfied
Master and disciple, pseudo-incest, aloof beauties, gloomy men, forbidden romance, boys and girls, school life, dog training, says one thing but means another, Pride and Prejudice, underlings rising above their superiors, cute stories, faked deaths
A Romance Grab Bag
I'll add to this gradually.

A very, very good novel!!!! I like Brother Meng very much! In fact, Xiao Bai is also good, but it's a pity that he is uneasy. The heroine's secret love for Xiao Bai is so bitter and makes me want to cry. Fortunately, they were all supported by Brother Meng 😭 😭 😭
Tuesday, April 14, 2026, 00:49. I hope Chen Jianbai can find his own ticket. I hope he won't miss it again this time and take it seriously! At the same time! Xiao Meng and Xiao You continue to be sweet in another world! Wish you all the best!
It is a very, very real and very happy book. Every time I read the author's writing, I feel that the world is so beautiful.
2026.6.21What a happy novel
At 12:33 on May 5, 2026, I finally finished reading it in two days. It was really touching! I wish Longlong and Xuezhen in parallel time and space have better and better lives!
Are you seriously considering letting Ye Jianbai go to Kyosaki to develop a relationship from Ye Jianbai's perspective? I want to see [changed][changed][changed]
A group photo spanning sixteen years
I have finished reading it. From the beginning, I saw that the male protagonist thought about abandoning the novel, but he was pushed by the kindness of the female protagonist and the cuteness of the male protagonist, and persisted to the funny in the middle, and the warmth at the end. Another good story that made me see the many possibilities of life.
Madam, madam, I like this book 💪 💪 💪
Revisiting it again, Neon is really a beautiful utopia, Zhenzhen and Lao Meng are so beautiful, there are many just the right romantic moments 🐰
