Just keeping a record, not necessarily recommending these. I'm pretty strict with ratings: three stars and up means I'm satisfied.
Completed Historical Romance
Hehe, Mary Sue historical romance, palace intrigue and the like. No xianxia.
Great Historical Romance and Xianxia
Happy endings only. Some have fanworks, and some have unusual kinks.
Personal Favorites: Pure BG Romance
I don't have many dealbreakers when it comes to stories. If I like it, I'll add it here. (For books I haven't bought in full, I read the print editions.) They're all five-star reads to me, but the rating system won't let me say so.

Historical romance with household intrigue, plenty of romance, a touch of political scheming, and a few wuxia and xianxia stories.
BG, Male Leads Who Are Virgins, Mostly Historical Romance
Historical romance, fantasy, cultivation, and mysteries. Childhood sweethearts, reunions after long separations, chance encounters, young boys and girls, romantics, and forceful love.
Top-Tier Historical Romance

Complete Collection 01
Purely subjective, just keeping a record.
A Few Historical Chinese BG Novels
Falling in love with historical romance is a lifelong affair.
Atypical Boy-Girl Romance
A personal archive of some BG novels I've read.
Proud/Gentle/Ghostly Men × Gentle/Proud/Strong-Willed Girls
Abbreviated names: tsundere / gentle / ghost / distinctive personality. Desperately looking for more top-tier, kink-focused reads. Still searching. (I absolutely love beautiful men.)
BG Novels Worth Rereading
I like thrilling or heartwarming plots, and I absolutely love melodrama, yandere characters, nonhumans, redemption, gloomy ghostly men, jealous types, and possessive love. Recommend some angsty melodramas in the comments.
A Bit of Everything: Modern, Historical, Fantasy, and Paranormal Romance
Mostly relationship-focused. I love stories where the characters connect on a soul-deep level, but not cookie-cutter characters falling in love. I care about the writing and plot. I don’t have many personal dealbreakers, but I’ll flag potential issues for every book. Updated slowly.
Waiting to Heal at Dusk
Maybe redemption stories?
Once
Historical / fantasy.
Read
Includes BG, GL, GB, and no-CP. Some blunt reviews and warnings: one- and two-star stories are awful, three-star ones are just about worth trying, four-star ones are fine but unremarkable, and five-star ones are good.
Highly Recommended Fantasy Romance
Click to see wonderfully written modern fantasy romances. They're all personal favorites.
Historical Romance
Historical romance or cultivation stories I’ve read, with a little gender-bender. I may lean toward equally strong couples and healing stories. Please don’t hesitate to send me other recommendations
BG Archive
Most of these are historical romances.

How can future generations not be able to eat this candy! ! How could you not know that Ni Su's nickname is Axi! ! ! There was a strong need for discussion on the forum and later people found out that Ni Su's nickname was Ah Xi, so he started taking CP. Others said: You are recruiting CP across time and space. Although the book is in the same book, the young general has been dead for two generations. Even if you are alive, you are still an old cow eating young grass (no). However, the truth is actually like this...()
