Severe Deformity

Dark and Twisted | Forced Love | Chasing the Wife | Angst | Taking by Force

I don't like male characters who sleep around, so all the male leads I recommend are faithful. I also don't like excessive descriptions of women's looks or heroines who are overly devoted to the male lead. So generally, the men are faithful and the love is one-sided.

(Female-Lead Fan) Xiao.

A personal reading list. I won't recommend something just because it's popular. The heroines take the lead in relationships; female leads are tops and male leads are bottoms. (The stars are random)

Even Broke Readers Need Jinjiang, Part 1

Free stories I picked up here and there

Favorites

Purely subjective, and saved for my own reference. I can’t give everything five stars (o.0), but I love them all. How much I enjoyed them has nothing to do with their ratings! Still updating...

BG, Female-Led, Dog-Training Kink, Female-Lead Fan

BG, female-led, with women training dogs and tormenting men. Feminist themes, as little beauty labor as possible, women-centered, and well-written.

A Happy Place for Girls

My favorite girlies training dogs or finding sweet love! All the men are tall, handsome, and pure. These are all my favorite stories that cater to my tastes, with men getting put through the wringer. I’ve included some commentary too.

BG Love-Rival Showdowns and a Beloved Female Lead

For readers who focus on the heroine. Most have multiple male leads, with women doting on the heroine, guys getting trained like dogs, and charismatic heroines who grow stronger over time. All the male leads are chaste in both body and heart, and good at cooking. I read stories with both strong and weak heroines.

Romance That Lowers Your Morality by One Point

A reading list for an omnivorous reader, full of dark angst, incest, pseudo-incest, hmm, bottoming, dark crawling, bad women, and scraps of smut (mostly fanworks)

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.

Adoptive or Step Siblings, Uncles and Nieces, Fathers and Daughters, Masters and Disciples [Full Access]

Includes historical and contemporary romance, xianxia cultivation, sex before love, coercive possession, reunited after separation, unrequited love becoming mutual, childhood sweethearts, foster care, and novelizations of films and TV shows

BG: Forced Love, Becoming the Other Woman for Love, Breaking In

Some stories that hit all the right notes for me.

A Showdown of the Craziest Yanderes

The male leads can wait their turn and compete to see who’s the most deranged, yandere, corrupted, completely unhinged, and toxic... Healthy romance is delicious, sure, but twisted love is truly something else.

Building Up My Fully Unlocked Reading List

As the title says, I have a soft spot for sweet stories. If I enjoy one, I give it five stars.

Female-Centric Harem Recommendations

I love female-centered harem stories. All the recommendations below have every male character fall for the female lead, who always takes charge. I'll mark any that might be a dealbreaker separately!!!

Short Stories I Love, For Personal Use

My tastes are chaotic and evil, and nothing can make up for that. This is a personal list, so I won't flag anything.

The Dog-Training Master and Her Dogs

My tastes are pretty twisted. I'm an extreme heroine stan and love heroines with men who act like dogs. The star ratings don't reflect the stories themselves; they're just to meet Jinjiang's book-list requirements.

Torturing Men Is the Best

I read all kinds of stuff, but I absolutely never read anything where the female lead gets put through the wringer. Yep, that's right.

Great Reads

A Guide to Green and Sustainable Living

Men suffering, female-protagonist fans, female-led GB, lots of old, obscure novels

A True Protagonist Fan's Feast: Female Lead Edition

A hardcore protagonist fan. I like all kinds of female leads, and I love scum and charismatic protagonists. I have no moral standards for main characters.

Everyone's Favorite, More Powerful Women, Please

BG, with all kinds of heroines, but guaranteed love rivals, great writing, and plenty of appeal. I love Western fantasy, crossover anime, ABO, and pseudo-incest, especially when the plot and romance get equal attention.

Short Stories

Almost all free, almost all put the men through the wringer, and almost all get five stars. (Most were practically made to torment men. Who wouldn't enjoy that?)

Female-Centered, Men Competing for Her, Harem Appeal, a Few One-on-Ones

Some of these are really old, so I prefer newer books. Some are here to increase the proportion of books I’d warn people about. There are too many five-star ratings, but I can’t bring myself to give them four stars qaq

I Love You, My Darling Heroines! (Edited Three Times)

Applying to become the person who loves the female lead most in the world. My adorable girl, let me kiss you, kiss you, kiss you! (No BL-related content, including authors' personal preferences.)
