My Fully Purchased Reading List (Not Recommendations)

Saving these here so I can find them easily. The VIP service sometimes makes books disappear. I haven't finished them, and the ratings are just rough estimates.

Random Picks

I’m a bit of a duality when it comes to bottom characters: I’m all for handsome bottoms and cute bottoms alike. Whether I’m strict about gender-bending portrayals depends on my mood. Setting > writing > plot. I’ll edit this when I have time. The positioning is as stated in the ID.

A Little Bit of Everything: Fully Subscribed, Free, Danmei

Danmei Rated Four or Five Stars Only
