A Sweet Little Treat
I lean toward shou in CPJ. I love couples who are both deeply in love, and prefer romance without angst, especially when the gong pursues the shou. If the shou pursues the gong, the gong has to return his feelings. Even if he doesn't love him, he mustn't put the shou through too much angst.
What's Wrong with Loving Those Little Hands?
Protagonist characterization is my biggest deal-breaker, even more than side-character characterization. Five stars: beautifully written, protagonist-centered stories. Four stars: more balanced ensemble casts. Three stars: minor issues. Two stars: proceed with caution.
Combative Couples
A record of rival couples I've read about. I prefer couples who are confidants, stand on opposing sides yet ultimately reach the same destination, and love each other while fighting. If they don't actually try to kill each other, I consider it just playful squabbling.

Keeping Track of Everything I Bought
I tend to favor the bottom. The bottom's personal charm comes above all else; my one hard rule is that the top must be pure. Some unfinished stories abandoned by their authors are in here too, which brings the list down a notch??
Sweet Couples, Still Updating
Delicious couples, nom nom nom! All BL, with a soft spot for catlike bottoms. P.S. There are all kinds of genres, but the leads are always devoted to each other.
Animal Stories / Primitive Settings / Beastmen / Wilderness Survival
A mix of genres, mostly stories with wild animals. Mainly stories set in the wilderness, but also includes cute city pets and police dogs. The latter two types have human protagonists.

Preferences: serious drama, fantasy, feel-good wish fulfillment, and humor, with sweet mutual romance.
Finished Reading (Pure Romance)
Not part of any fandom, just read for fun. I’m open to all genres, but picky… I prioritize intriguing premises, though I’ll read anything with good writing. My ratings are fair. A bit thin-skinned ( )
Handsome Bottoms, Mary Sue Bottoms, and Villainous Bottoms, Mostly Top-Protagonist Stories
No guarantee they’re all charming and handsome... Still sorting through them.

Sweet Couples and Omnivorous Reading, Rambling Edition
Five stars means a heartfelt recommendation. I read all sorts of things, with a slight preference for lesser-known books. Usually it's the atmosphere, characters, or romance that wins me over, often with mutual pampering. Long reviews ahead. These are purely subjective impressions and a bit of sentimental rambling.
Favorite Sweet Stories: Top-Focused and Bottom-Focused, with Mutual Love and Pampering
As the title says, I mostly list sweet stories I like, though I'll add other favorites too. There are stories with both top and bottom protagonists. I like couples who dote on each other. No stories catering to top- or bottom-stans, and no fujoshi.

A Serial DNFer's Finished-Reading Log
I often drop novels halfway through when I suddenly lose interest. My dealbreakers aren’t clear; I’m a bit of a picky omnivore, but most of these are pure-love stories with a bottom-focused pairing. I’m trying to keep track; quality may vary.
Dropping Stories Is the Norm; Reading Them All Is the Exception
Saving these for my all-time favorites. Leaving out anything plagiarized or controversial.

I came here from a tweet from Xiaohongshu. When I saw the name, I didn't particularly want to read it. I felt that the name was a bit too casual and inconspicuous, and it was easy for people to miss it. Who knew that after reading it, it was so exciting that it topped the list of novels I have read in 26 years [like] The author's writing style is really good. Many sentences and vocabulary are very artistic, which makes people imagine the scene. It directly reminds me of the era when Jianghu literature was everywhere in Jinjiang more than ten years ago. The sense of martial arts is also very strong. There are really too few good Jianghu novels nowadays. I usually feel bored and want to give up the article after seeing the two protagonists confirm that they are together. This is not the case at all. I can't guess that the next chapter will be a killer plot. The relationship is very delicate and the transition is natural. Even the family relationship between parents is not written in the same way, nor is it sadistic, nor is it a brainless sweet industrial candy. I can't watch sadistic or brainless sweets. The degree of reading is very strange. But I read every chapter of this chapter very slowly, fearing that it will be lost too quickly. The book is more than ten years old. At first, I only read stories about men and women. Later, I only read about women and men. Recently, I was tortured by the two male protagonists on Douyin. I just wanted to watch two beautiful men fall in love. As expected, the end of the novel is about beauty, hahaha😁
It would be great if this article had hundreds of extra chapters
The "right taste" of the ancient martial arts reminded me of the afternoon ten years ago when I secretly watched the Jin Yong Cologne my father bought when he was in school in the study room of my hometown. This nostalgic feeling is really comfortable. I haven't read a book with such a feeling in a long time, and I am very honored to read it.
Goddess, I miss you. I really miss you. It's so sad to live without you. Come out and have a quickie [poor] [poor] [poor]
Seriously waiting for the next one! [Empty bowl][empty bowl]
The ending of "Sahuahua" [][] is still beautiful in big letters! ! ! I wish the young couple a happy and long lasting marriage [laughing loudly][laughing loudly]
