The Wild Geese Bring the Moon

Looking for Some Intense Romantic Tension: BG

Romanticized Power Dynamics

I only read BG and share some shamelessly sappy romances. Lots of older-man/younger-woman and brother-sister pairings. I just love watching two people fall in love and dance around each other. It makes my heart feel so good.

Delicious BG: I Love It, I Want More

A chaotic stash of delicious BG novels!!! Every genre thrown into the pot!!!

Some Pretty Good Pure BG Stories

Some novels I think are pretty good, updated slowly ^ ^ Why can't I rearrange the order manually??? I'm so bad with words. All I can say is that they're good.

Five-Star Stories Worth Rereading Again and Again

Decent BG Reads for Mainstream Tastes

Mostly campus and urban settings. All the female leads have agency, but their personalities vary widely. Some are quite gentle, while most are very independent. The male leads are devoted to their wives, and their little guys are kept under lock and key.

Still Holds Up on a Second Read

Finished Reads and Reviews ^_^

I like BG, happy endings, chaste male leads, and completed stories. I prefer 1v1; if a story doesn't fit, I'll say so. For five-star books, see my other list: all five stars.

Masterpieces with Great Writing and Powerful Figures Bowing Their Heads

Not every person in a position of power can capture my interest. But trust me, every male protagonist on this list is brimming with personal charm.

Modern BG

Bittersweet tension, second chances, marriage before love, sweet little stories. I've fully read some of these. Many are ones I read ages ago, so I'll write proper reviews when I revisit them.
