My standards are all over the place, so there’s almost nothing I can’t tolerate. Feel free to screen things out yourself. I skip parts of most books, so I rarely buy the whole thing.
Garden Illustration Mission [2]
Illustrations available for 1-6 coins. The quantity limit has been reached; waiting for the third batch.
Garden Illustrations, Saved for Myself 3
The most expensive one cost 7 Jinjiang coins, or 5 coins after using points. I've run out of illustrated books on my existing reading list, so I had to dig these up myself.
For Personal Use 4
Anyway, These Are Bottoms with Well-Developed Characters
So I can't rule out some genderbending (nods)
Momo, Yours
A dark, melodramatic special, leaning toward serious cleanup but with ETJ. I wholeheartedly adore shou protagonists and wooden straight-man battle royales. Note that the list owner doesn’t follow community trends closely, so the level of control isn’t particularly deep. GLM, begone.
Omnivorous Reads, Pure CPJ, KK Keep Out (1
I look for good prose and memorable characters. I am neither a gong-focused reader nor a shou-focused reader. Anyone who mindlessly abuses the gong or shou can stay far away. There are gong-led, shou-led, and switch pairings. Ask questions or check the comments for content warnings.
Bottom-Focused, Praise the Bottom
Danmei stories I've read so far that I thought were pretty good
Book Recs for Handsome Bottoms
I like stories with beautiful or handsome characters, especially handsome bottoms. I prefer couples who dote on each other and tend to favor the bottom. I don't like timid bottoms who need protecting. I like capable, handsome bottoms, and can't stand weak tops or tops who are weak in bed.
BL | Open to All Kinds (Completed Happy-End Stories)
If you don’t read a bit of everything, stay away. This list is an extremely complicated mix with unpredictable preferences, though I’d say I lean toward stories focused on the protagonist. Anything might show up except excessive genderbending of male characters and tops who are weak in bed.
Bottom-Centric, Protagonist-Focused~
Handsome, beautiful, strong, doted-on, and universally adored bottoms, and so on. No Chun Zhu-style bottoms or side couples, please.
Bottom-Centric Content Warnings: Avoiding Duds
Shou-focused content warnings: includes unfaithful gongs, shous pursuing gongs, stand-ins, reader discretion advised, spotlight-stealing moments, friends-and-family squads, and explosive preview chapters. Nothing against the authors, unless they're GLM.
Ye’s Strong-and-Beautiful Booklist
Beautiful tops and strong (handsome) bottoms. Bottom-focused reader; I like mutual pampering, preferably with the bottom being doted on. I like N-way sex, but no role reversal or switching. My preference is for bottoms with darker skin (unless otherwise specified, assume...)
Pure-Love Warrior: Eremite Edition
Split off after my character-focused list reached its limit. That list is mostly one-on-one, while everything here is one-to-many. Some start as one-to-many but end one-on-one, but they're all centered on the protagonist.
Eclectic Picks, Including Abandoned Reads; Just for Me, No One Reads This
Romance isn't the main focus. Good writing and a great plot, with angst, sweetness, bittersweet moments, perfect matches, devoted couples, melodrama, absurd comedy, and more.
Precious Shou
All of these have devoted tops who don't cheat on their bottoms.
Everyone's Favorite, with Multiple Love Interests; BL and BG
A big mixed pot
Powerful, Handsome, Irresistible Bottoms
For my own reference, since I have a bad memory. My personal tastes lean toward the dark side.
2026 Fully Read List
I made one a while ago, and now I'm making another. These are all the books I bought this year, plus some ongoing series I'm following, which I'll leave off here.
Suave, Handsome Straight-Man Magnet Bottoms
A reading log. Don’t blame me if a story messes you up. Ratings are random. Ongoing list.
Good Stories
Some are written in a natural, down-to-earth style, with a little philosophy; some have a lot of unnecessary explanation; and some feel naive by today's standards. But they're all good stories once you've read them through.
Recommended Reading List
Not ranked. A pretty wide range of genres.
To Catch: 11
Completed in September 2025. Everyone's favorite.
Handsome, Dashing, Godlike, Strong Bottoms
A personal reading list of handsome bottoms. There are so few, so I’m organizing them here to keep from forgetting. As long as the bottom is handsome and has a good figure, I’m happy. I love godlike bottoms most. Not all are 1v1. I’m bottom-focused and dislike possessive tops.

Damn, your article is really gentle, and every character is filled with delicate love and cherishment. Today's Internet is sensitive and casual. Our words and articles will always block the hearts of some people, thus containing malicious intent. These malicious intentions are very heavy on anyone. But many people's emotional venting is actually nothing, just venting. I am not asking for anything when writing this, but I want to express it to you. It may feel a little light when you say it, but still, don't care too much. Your life is your own life, and your choice of writing is also your own choice. Anyway, I really enjoyed your article
I haven't used the software for a long time, and I was waiting for your new article to be finished. I was very sad to see that you were going to close it down. I have been reading novels for almost ten years, and this is my favorite novel this year. You are my favorite author this year, because I feel real emotions and love in this book. TT I don't think your works are "bloody", because everyone is filled with love. A long time later, I will still remember Chen Jinchen's feelings for Lu Xu and that observation notebook. The inner child is not good at expressing his emotions. He yearns for continuous bravery and thanks for his help... When he sees someone, he likes him. He never thought that he would be with him, but he still loved him very much. I haven't seen this kind of love for a long time, so when I saw the ending of Xiao Chen, I was so happy that I wanted to cry. There is also the pairing of the brother and the puppy. When I watched it before, I thought that the brother was so possessive and would let the puppy raise a dog. When I saw the ending of Brother, when the brother took the puppy and chose the dog, I felt that many, many things exceeded the brother's love. There are many other feelings that this novel gave me. It reshaped the love between people that I felt when reading novels before. I don't think your author is a jerk or anything, and I don't want to describe it in one word. I think you are a very good author and I like your characters very much, and you definitely like your characters more than me or other readers. Don't doubt yourself because of other people's malice. I want to take a break after your book is finished. 😢I want you to be happy... I don't want to see such a good author like you feel sad because of someone else's malicious interpretation.
After a few months, when I opened Jinjiang, the sky collapsed. How could this happen? What happened... I really like your article. How could this happen...
What happened omg, forget it, boss, don't be too sad 🙏 I like your article very much, I hope you can cheer up. No matter what choice you make, don't force yourself too much 😭
I really like the teacher's writing style, which is beautiful and has a touch of melancholy. . Everyone's ending makes me feel happy and regretful. I really hope they all get what they want 😭 😭 No matter who the puppy chooses, three people are destined to spend the rest of their lives unhappy (Xiao Luo may not have the rest of his life😭 and his brother...) I feel so sad when I think of this. . I even hope that if the puppy is even more scumbag, no one will choose him. . You five can just keep dragging and pulling each other like this 🥺 🥺
Ah ah ah, little Chen Xiaoxu must be so happy 🥺
Damn, what you wrote is really good. I really don't understand those people! WwwwwI really look forward to every article written by Dada. I really like Dada's writing style. Anyway, my dear, writing is your freedom and happiness. No matter what, happiness is the most important thing.
It makes me feel soft 😭 😭 😭 I want to be happy forever 🥺
