Three years ago, during an anti-drug operation in Gongzhou, a chain of explosions occurred because Commander Jiang Ting made a mistake in his judgment. The anti-narcotics unit suffered heavy casualties. Three years later, Jiang Ting, who should have died in the line of duty and left no remains, miraculously awakens from a vegetative state. His fallen comrades cannot rest in peace. He must return from hell and give everything he has to uncover the bloody, bizarre 2.3MFavorites2.3MClicks/ch3.8MGifts

   Curator note

   I've read it three times. From a personal preference perspective, it's a book where the "Huai Shang flavor" has been somewhat diluted. I don't usually like crime dramas, but I decided to trust the author and made the right choice. The Red Queen arc was amazing, with many plot twists, but I had to read the beginning several times to get into it. On my third read, I felt the plot and romance were very well integrated.

2. 52 伪 The Fake Slackers 伪装学渣 Papaya Huang木瓜黄Danmei (BL)411k WordsCompleted After class assignments were announced, the two campus-famous “problem students” not only ended up in the same class, but became deskmates. One is clearly a top student but insists on pretending to be a slacker. He’s all theatrics and keeps going further down the road of acting. A thread about the two big shots in our class who compete for last place on every exam. A theatrical top who’s destined to die alone (He Chao) x a bottom who picks fights at the drop of a hat and has no regard for human 2.3MFavorites2.1MClicks/ch2.6MGifts

   Curator note

   The two children are perfectly cast, their characters are well-developed, and the plot is fast-paced. This is probably my favorite school novel from the period when I loved reading school novels.

3. 53 撒EN Run Wild: Sa Ye 撒野 Wu Zhe巫哲Danmei (BL)909k WordsCompleted Campus romance. Happy ending. Updates Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday at 7:40 p.m. The author, unable to write a blurb, is groveling here. Thanks to @Lingyu Qimeng for the cover lettering! Thanks to @Erxi Zaguoji for the little tip! Theme: With hope in your heart, nothing can stop you. 2MFavorites1.9MClicks/ch2.4MGifts

   I've read it six times already. My absolute favorite BL novel!!! It's so down-to-earth and realistic, with an indescribable charm—that's probably the magic of Gou Dan'er. Even when I was taking my high school entrance exam, I was listening to "Wild Piano Music" on my headphones because back then, there wasn't even a lyrics version yet; it was so old-fashioned. Rabbit Flying Cat Cheng 99! Everyone, please take care, waaaaa QAQ

4. 54 默EN Silent Reading: Mo Du 默读 priestDanmei (BL)824k WordsCompleted Childhood, upbringing, family background, social connections, trauma... We keep tracing and searching for the motives behind criminals' actions, exploring the faintest shades of their joy and sorrow. Not so we can put ourselves in their shoes and sympathize with them, let alone forgive them. Not to find excuses for their crimes. Not to bow down before the so-called complexity of human nature. Not to reflect on social conflicts, and certainly not to let ourselves become monsters too. We're only 1.7MFavorites1.6MClicks/ch2.6MGifts

   Curator note

   I've read it three times. I rarely read modern crime thrillers, and "Silent Reading" is undoubtedly my top choice in the genre. It has some depth, but it's still a smooth read. Each case gradually comes together, only to be revealed again near the end. Fei Du's character is fantastic; his behavior is very logical and believable. Luo Wenzhou feels very real and alive. The other characters also have their own highlights. It's safe to say that PP's ensemble cast is truly solid; there's no reason not to like it.

5. 55 判EN Panguan: The Twelfth Gate 判官 Mu Su Li木苏里Danmei (BL)539k WordsCompleted A flashy "weakling" x a poor man living in a mansion The Judge's lineage once had a founding patriarch. He was renowned throughout the land, but now no one dares mention him. If they do, the only response is that he died a horrible death. Only Wen Shi still observes the rules. Every day, he pays respects to the founding patriarch's garishly painted portrait, complete with a blue-green face and fangs, when somehow it summons a sickly tenant. The tenant stands before the portrait and asks, "Who 1.7MFavorites1.6MClicks/ch3.2MGifts

   Curator note

   I've watched it three times. The master is a great character, a true "white moonlight" figure. I was quite moved in the early episodes, and the later plot developments were very exciting. The way the story was handled was predictable, the villains died justifiably, and the bond between the master and disciple was the highlight. The only shortcoming is that it tries too hard to elevate the theme, but fails to do so. It feels like throwing a pebble into a reasonable narrative and getting no response—it's as bland as plain water. 2025.12.7: Four stars for the book, three negative stars for certain obsessed people. Are they reading books or chasing stars? The life of an innocent reader who was provoked.

6. 56 死 Death's Kaleidoscope 死亡万花筒 Xi Zixu西子绪Danmei (BL)875k WordsCompleted The first sign that something was wrong was that the cat at home wouldn't let him pick it up anymore. Lin Qiushi realized that everything around him was beginning to feel horribly out of place. Then one day, when he opened the door to his apartment, he found that the familiar hallway had turned into a long corridor. At either end of the corridor stood twelve identical iron doors. And so the story began. Ruan Nanzhu told Lin Qiushi, “When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back at you.” Li 1.6MFavorites1.8MClicks/ch3.6MGifts

   I've watched it twice. It was my first time encountering a cross-dressing, manipulative seme, and it was quite a shock. Every episode was excellent, easy to understand, yet filled with joy and sorrow. The most heartbreaking part was the relationship between the two brothers. I hope everyone is doing well in their parallel universe, and I hope Xizi will not be afraid of rumors and gossip, continue to create, and keep going! P. S.: Thank you Xizi for the bonus chapter, I'm crying [crying emoji]

7. 57 地 The Earth Goes Online 地球上线 Mo Chenhuan莫晨欢Danmei (BL)1.3M WordsCompleted This story is entirely fictional, born of imagination and not based on reality. Half a year ago, tens of thousands of enormous black phantom towers appeared all over the world, hovering above cities. Chemists, physicists, religious groups... no one had any answers. Six months later, people had gotten used to them and stopped paying attention. One day, Tang Mo saw a flying insect collide with one of the phantom black towers. It didn’t pass through. The next day, a childlike, clear voice made 1.1MFavorites1.2MClicks/ch2.6MGifts

   Curator note

   I've read it three times. The experience was completely different from the first time; it was incredibly moving, so I've decided to give it five stars! My only regret is the ending. Huanhuan could have written more; there could have been so many more subplots, sob sob QAQ. The ending felt like a final sprint. I really like the main character, and I also really like the supporting characters. For example, for a while, my ID was always "Lucky Yao." Everyone has their own story and highlights; Huanhuan is truly a great writer!

8. 58 当 Those Years In Quest Of Honour Mine 当年万里觅封侯 So Very Much, So Very Slowly漫漫何其多Danmei (BL)382k WordsCompleted +++ [Paranoid, sinister, unhinged top × optimistic, delusional bottom]++ Genuine one-sided love, fake getting-back-together-after-a-breakup, and an absurd fictional setting. ++ Yu Ziyou and Zhong Wan serve different masters.

To survive, he relies on the scraps of friendship he shared with Yu Ziyou in their youth, us 1.1MFavorites1.1MClicks/ch1.1MGifts

   Curator note

   They're both masters of expressing their feelings; if their thought processes were even slightly off, they would never have a happy ending. A match made in heaven, 99/10.

9. 59 不 Don't Pick Up a Boyfriend from the Trash Can [Quick Transmigration] 不要在垃圾桶里捡男朋友[快穿] Riding a Whale South骑鲸南去Danmei (BL)1.4M WordsCompleted 1.1MFavorites1.5MClicks/ch1.7MGifts

   Curator note

   "The God of Quick Transmigration." This was my gateway into the world of quick transmigration novels. The feeling of gradually revealing identities—that's what you call destiny and bonds. They're real!! (Choking up) Every single one is so good!!!

10. 60 烈 Blazing Fire, Burning Sorrow 烈火浇愁 priestDanmei (BL)783k WordsCompleted “On the crest of the magma waves, embers burn without end.” Ancient times to modern day, younger love interest. Thanks to the lovely little friend “Chengzi Lvya Lv” on Lofter for the cover art. The lettering is so beautiful =w= Theme: 1MFavorites1.4MClicks/ch2.6MGifts

    I've read it five times already. I love modern supernatural novels so much, I'm completely hooked! I even made a playlist just for those iconic songs, hehe. P. S.: Oh my god, I only realized this one is from the protagonist's perspective after five reads! Luckily, I didn't get them on the wrong side this time; their interactions are just so sweet.

11. 61 不EN Three Hundred Years of Longing: Bu Jian Shang Xian San Bai Nian 不见上仙三百年 Mu Su Li木苏里Danmei (BL)533k WordsCompleted There are countless evil spirits in the world, and half of them live in Zhaoye City. The other half all met their end in the northern Canglang region of Tiansu, under the command of the immortal Xiao Fuxuan. Only one demon lord was imprisoned for twenty-five years and still survived. That was Wu Xingxue, the Lord of Zhaoye City. Theme: The preciousness of life 997.4kFavorites866.3kClicks/ch1.4MGifts

    Curator note

    The plot unfolded logically yet unexpectedly, and the depiction of the protagonist discovering his true identity was excellent. The romantic subplot weakened slightly later on, but his presence remained impactful yet subtly understated, leaving me feeling pleasantly humorous. 2025.12.7: Four stars for the book, three negative stars for certain obsessed people. Are they reading books or chasing stars? The life of an innocent reader who was provoked.

12. 62 残 Defective 残次品 priestDanmei (BL)989k WordsCompleted “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.”, Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities “I carried a hatred buried deep in my bones and a scheme years in the making. I turned myself into a ghost risen from the dead and sank into the swamp, sank into the abyss. I wanted to plant rotting roots and grow thorns that would kill at a touch, to pierce this hypocritical civilization. I reached the depths of the mire... and found a star.” A top with a three-ton idol image VS a bottom who's a shre 895.3kFavorites837.3kClicks/ch1.7MGifts

    I don't usually like space fiction, but I finished this one because of the PP (presumably referring to a specific book or feature), and I found it incredibly enjoyable. How can I describe the feeling of being so awestruck?! Their ultimate transformation is like exploring an unknown world for me. Enough said, 99.

13. 63 剑 The Sword Is Called Unbearable 剑名不奈何 Huai Shang淮上Danmei (BL)543k WordsCompleted They say Xu Shuangce, the greatest man under heaven, keeps a portrait of his deceased wife. But no one knows that on the back of the painting is the image of his old nemesis, the very person Xu Shuangce personally killed. Sixteen years ago, Gong Wei, Grand Director of the Immortal Alliance’s Punishment Court, went up to the Ascension Platform with a dagger hidden on him, intending to assassinate Xu Shuangce. He failed, and was killed on the spot by the Non-Interference Sword. Sixteen years lat 871kFavorites1.1MClicks/ch1.2MGifts

    Curator note

    I've read it three times already. Each time, I notice different details. Huai Shang's writing is as vivid as ever, with incredibly imaginative world-building that's explained clearly and thoroughly. I was always shocked; I can attest to that with the goosebumps. The characters are very distinct and complex. I especially love Gong Wei's inhuman quality and Xu Shuangce's calm madness and possessiveness. Also worth mentioning are the side stories; the secondary couple has a truly authentic Huai Shang feel to it!

14. 64 六 Six Lines 六爻 priestDanmei (BL)538k WordsCompleted A cultivation story about how a declining sect is restored by a vain monkey, a troublemaker, a sharp-tongued jerk, a fool, and a little rascal. The pairing is with the eldest senior brother, older man-younger man~ Fussy top × caustic, sharp-tongued bottom Many thanks to O-Tsu! Cover by Xiao Li! Column link VIP status begins Sunday, July 6. Three chapters that day. After that, I will award points for long reviews. This work is exclusive to this site; repost 761.9kFavorites662.8kClicks/ch748.9kGifts

    Curator note

    I've read it three times already. I cried so much! There's no right or wrong; everyone has their own perspective, but growing up is a gradual process of moving towards a sad destiny. A wonderful ensemble piece; I saw different possibilities through PP's writing. May the Fuyao faction always be happy, waaaaah QAQ

15. 65 铜EN The Copper Coin Shrine 铜钱龛世 Mu Su Li木苏里Danmei (BL)394k WordsCompleted In the twenty-third year of the Tianxi era, rumors spread that the all-powerful Imperial Preceptor had suffered a sudden calamity and been forced into seclusion to cultivate. In private, the common people cheered. That same winter, a stranger arrived in Ningyang County, Huizhou Prefecture. The newcomer, Dharma name Xuan Min, had lost all his memories but knew a little about feng shui and geomancy. On his very first day in Ningyang, he brazenly exorcised a haunted house and, while he was at it, t 726.3kFavorites640.9kClicks/ch394.9kGifts

    I never imagined dragon saliva could have these effects; I'm truly shocked. The premise is incredibly daring. I cried so much about the bone-changing part. Love is hard to describe in words, but they clearly proved it with their actions, sob sob QAQ 2025.12.7: Four stars for the book, three negative stars for certain obsessed people.

16. 66 仙 The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path 仙道第一小白脸 Fourteen Continents一十四洲Danmei (BL)651k WordsCompleted I have a wonderful sect. They’ve never looked down on me for having poor natural aptitude, never forced me to practice martial arts, and even arranged a childhood betrothal for me. My fiancée is a famous, domineering heiress. She’s beautiful, powerful, and loves me dearly. Later, as I traveled the martial world, I relied on her protection and became the most famous kept pretty boy in the immortal cultivation world. One day, I discovered that this person seemed to be a man. He was disguising him 634.5kFavorites721kClicks/ch500.9kGifts

    Curator note

    Overall, it's very good. The young lady's dominant role left a deep impression on me, and the misunderstanding trope is timeless. I deducted one star because of the strange sword spirits in the later stages, which felt like mischievous kids causing trouble, and the fact that the cross-dressing was too much for me.

17. 67 提 Lantern Light on Peach Blossoms 提灯映桃花 Huai Shang淮上Danmei (BL)490k WordsCompleted A modern urban danmei melodrama: intense angst and drama, possessive love, a painful romance, wealthy-family feuds, mutual destruction, and a conventional happy ending I once saw the Crown Prince of King Ling of Zhou, playing the flute beneath a peach tree in bloom. A modern urban story about exorcising demons. A seme with enough kingly charisma to wake up every day dazzled by his own good looks, and an indefatigable uke who just won't stay down no matter how many times he's beaten. Maxed-out 574.3kFavorites677.8kClicks/ch131.6kGifts

    Curator note

    (The full subscription is not displayed due to a locked chapter) I've read it many times. It's an old-fashioned melodrama, a phoenix-like beauty, and I still remember the proposal scene many years later.

18. 68 一 Woke up and Heard I Was Married 一觉醒来听说我结婚了 Papaya Huang木瓜黄Danmei (BL)468k WordsCompleted [Next novel: Fake Academic Rivals. Find it in my author page =3= Muah] This might be a fake showbiz novel, or maybe the blurb is fake too. Shao Si was sickly from childhood. He only lived to this day because he accidentally got bound to a life-extending System that was like a ghost. After he set foot in the entertainment industry, things got even more life-threatening. System: We are the Black Curtain Duo. Our goal is to clean up the entertainment industry and expose all its shady dealings. 544.2kFavorites715.9kClicks/ch187.5kGifts

    Curator note

    I've read it countless times. I've been following this book since its serialization, and I can still find comments I wrote years ago. I really love this book; the characters are so vivid, the interactions are natural, and the system setting doesn't feel abrupt at all, making the plot more logical and coherent. I suddenly remembered that after finishing this book, I changed my ID to "Shao Si" and used it for years. I think I inexplicably locked it once before, and when I finally subscribed to all of it, I almost cried. In short, I'm the happiest person in the world! May Shao Si and Gu Yanzhou be happy together in a parallel universe!! Finally, a word of advice: I don't recommend reading the comments section; they argue about everything, even the smallest things, which will affect your mood.

19. 69 千EN Thousand Autumns: Qian Qiu 千秋 Meng Xishi梦溪石Danmei (BL)637k WordsCompleted Yan Wushi had made his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He believed neither that human nature was good nor that anyone in this world could be truly benevolent or selfless, thinking of others without expecting anything in return. One day, Shen Qiao, leader of Xuandu Mountain, known as the greatest Taoist sect in the world, accepts a challenge but falls off a cliff due to unforeseen circumstances. Yan Wushi happens to be passing below. Seeing Shen Qiao gravely wounded and close 458.7kFavorites472.6kClicks/ch329kGifts

    I've read it three times. "Having seen the vastness of the universe, I still cherish the green of grass and trees." The name "Shen Qiao" in this book will forever be the most gentle yet powerful representative in my heart, a white moonlight-like presence. No matter when I open it, or which page I turn to, I can always continue reading, finding something new with each reading.

20. 70 天 Records of Exorcising Demons in the Tianbao Era 天宝伏妖录 Fei Tian Ye Xiang非天夜翔Danmei (BL)1.1M WordsCompleted The phoenix led millions of birds from the edge of the sky, a sea of rolling clouds like flames behind it, as it swept past Chang'an. The golden-winged roc perched high atop Xingqing Palace, its eyes reflecting all the people of this flourishing realm. In the silence, countless fortunes rose and fell, like tides ebbing and flowing. Li Jinglong dragged his battered body forward, a brilliant light shining from his hand as he kept moving toward Hongjun. “The living… are travelers passing through… 419.6kFavorites352.1kClicks/ch408.7kGifts

    I've watched it twice. I love the main characters' character designs, and the side couples are great too; every single one is sweet and engaging. So I watched the anime, and the art style and character models are fantastic. I absolutely loved the sense of destiny it conveyed, and the ending was truly breathtaking.

    I've already read it twice. I don't usually read about court intrigue or power struggles, but after finishing "A Thousand Autumns" next door, I got hooked and wanted to continue reading the author's books, sob QAQ. It really didn't disappoint. The characters are very interesting; I started to love intellectual romances from this book!!

Much of the paint had peeled away, and the sign was upside down. Let the sunlight of the Main City wake you every morning. It was an advertisement for a housing development. When Lian Chuan first passed by, the billboard had already been hanging like that for who knew how long, as if to prove that being woken by the sunlight each morning was nothing but a collapsing dream. The Main City had long since run out of 277kFavorites216.6kClicks/ch305.3kGifts

    Curator note

    I've read it twice. "Ninggu Lianchuan, Shanshui Lianlian." This is a different style for Gou Dan'er outside of modern BL, and the young couple is quite good. The world-building is quite grand, with a melancholic yet inspiring feel, which greatly shocked me when I was young.

24. 74 南 Southern Zen 南禅 Tang Jiuqing唐酒卿Danmei (BL)447k WordsCompleted [Any revision notices are for chapters currently being unlocked] I have tasted all eight worldly sufferings. I seek no Buddha, only you. Wild, unruly monster gong x cool, desireless, childish immortal shou One-on-one, happy ending. The koi fish is the gong, the gong, the gong.

Proceed with caution.] Theme: 245.1kFavorites209.9kClicks/ch129.2kGifts

    Curator note

    I've read it twice. The plot and character development are excellent; Jinglin is incredibly ethereal, the fight scenes are cool, and the themes are lofty yet not unrealistic. However, the writing style isn't quite to my liking; it's too ornate and can be tiring to read. I probably won't read it again until I've completely forgotten the plot.

25. 75 青 Azure Dragon Totem 青龙图腾 Huai Shang淮上Danmei (BL)481k WordsCompleted A gong who begins as a righteous, austere, resolute monk, later learns the truth of his background, returns to secular life, and finally ascends the throne & a shou whose style is ruthless and whose vibe is rather sinister. All history here is fictional. An old-fashioned, melodramatic, angsty romp, written for readers who don’t want anything too complicated. Theme: 187.2kFavorites268.3kClicks/ch72.2kGifts

    (Unlocked chapters not showing full subscription) Second reading. A relatively rare story featuring a monk who has returned to secular life as the seme, and the uke is Xie Yun, ruthless yet beautiful, incredibly hot, and possessing a divine quality. This is pure, authentic Huai River flavor, so satisfying!

I don't understand why some people attack readers who are just reading normally, along with the author. It's so speechless.
