   5- A story about a strong, independent woman, told from the male protagonist's perspective. The writing is mature, and the characters are very well-developed. It has a science fiction setting. Updates are relatively slow, and there are no unfinished projects yet.

   5- I don't know if it's unfinished, but it's really good. It totally hits my sweet spot; the bear is a world-class gem. It seems to be GB-oriented, but it's not obvious.

   5 A sweet romance novel inspired by The Phantom of the Opera. Although it doesn't exist in the original setting, the male lead has a certain otherworldly quality, so I'm including it on this list. I absolutely love it. Not having read the original novel won't affect your reading experience.

7. 57 秽 A Filthy Banquet 秽宴 Black Cat, White Socks黑猫白袜子Danmei (BL)511k WordsCompleted "Tongue Chapter" At some point, Xie Xishu began to feel an intense gaze fixed on him from behind. He couldn’t understand why Qi Wu always looked at him that way. Even without turning around, he could feel that gaze as if it had weight...

   4+ I initially thought it was a long story, but after the serialization ended, I discovered it was a three-part episodic narrative. Nevertheless, it still kept me hooked. Is it humanity's innate emotions that create the monster's obsessive hunting instincts? Or is it the monster's physiological appetite that gives rise to its protective behavior? And can all of this be categorized as "love"?

8. 58 故 The Villains in the Story 故事里的反派们 Half a Wisp of Smoke and Sand半娄烟沙Romance550k WordsCompleted Every story has villains, big and small. Some may be devious and cunning, some may kill without mercy, and some may have hideous faces... One day, women accidentally stumble into each of these stories.

   3 Because it's an episodic story and the plot isn't very original, I don't think I finished it. However, the writing style is quite good. It's a sweet romance story.

9. 59 原 Back to the Beginning 原始再来 Moonlit Mulberry月下桑Danmei (BL)476k WordsCompleted This is the story of a male Kantas couple who persisted and finally succeeded in laying (stealing) an egg: “...You stole it?” Blake’s expression immediately turned tense. He carefully lowered his body and used his wings to cover their nest a little more securely. “I didn’t steal it, ” Hearing Blake’s question, Bai looked even more pleased with himself. He tucked the big white egg back beneath his rear and declared in a booming voice, “I laid it!” Crack! Blake could almost hear the thread call 95kFavorites293.4kClicks/ch92.2kGifts

The merfolk are real merfolk, in the traditional sense. They are absolutely not the kind who are male and can give birth. The author is “Seeds That Can't Sprout.” This is an authorized repost~ P.S. What's wrong with LJJ? Why did the blurb turn into a straight romance novel before? Theme: 13kFavorites39.7kClicks/ch1.9kGifts

By the time Daiya arrived, the male lead had already undergone a complete transformation and become the continent's greatest genius i 103.3kFavorites320.8kClicks/ch152.7kGifts

    4 Fantasy, a female supporting character transmigrates into a book and encounters the God of Light. A power-up story, a satisfying tale of defeating an overpowered protagonist. Little romance, a touch of "stock trading," but unfortunately, it's a Jinjiang (a Chinese online literature platform) story.

15. 65 穿 The Male Lead I Met After Transmigrating Into a Book Confessed to Me 穿书男主向我表白了 Ye Yi叶猗Romance482k WordsCompleted Su Zhen only learned after her death that she was the vicious supporting female character in a cultivation novel.

    4+ A cultivation-themed story. It's about a reborn female supporting character, a tree demon, and a transmigrated female supporting character who both fall for a powerful asura-like male character. In short, it's a story about me and my crush getting together; there's a lot of emotional detail, and it's a sweet romance. I found the time difference after the transmigration very touching. I also liked the characters' personalities.

He never expected to become a sacrificial pawn in the romance between his fiancée and his younger brother. As he lay dying on a barren planet after being framed, he heard a heavenly voice: [Beep!

Choose carefully. Failure means death and a rest 70.2kFavorites87.9kClicks/ch80.6kGifts

    Curator note

    4- A Zerg-themed story, with the Zerg Queen being incredibly popular. The revenge plot of slapping down a cheating husband and mistress is cliché, but it's forgivable for the sake of the Zerg. It's the story of a human becoming the Zerg Queen and leading a stagnant, desolate civilization to continue functioning. (Note: The last sentence appears to be a separate, unrelated comment: "Micro-buying stock, fragrant rice.")

18. 68 小EN Little Mushroom (Deluxe Hardcover Novel) 小蘑菇 Fourteen Continents一十四洲Danmei (BL)313k WordsCompleted An Zhe is a mushroom, and his life's purpose is to grow a spore of his own. One day, he loses his spore. He searches everywhere for a long time, until at last he sees a familiar-looking spore on the news. Desperate, An Zhe knocks on the door of a colonel in the human military. “Hello, sir. How is the research project under your command going? When you're done studying it, could you give my son back to me?” The colonel looks coldly at him. “Your son?” “I gave birth to him QAQ” The colonel says 1.4MFavorites1.5MClicks/ch1.4MGifts

    4 The only adorable, slightly naive character I don't dislike—because Bao is a little mushroom. A post-apocalyptic story. Weak sense of non-human beings.

    4 The rice was delicious and fragrant, making me smile. The process of the protagonist gradually transforming from a human into an insect queen was very engaging. The deduction is because the protagonist is a bit of a natural jerk.

    Curator note

    4++ The protagonist is a zombie king, and the other is a human. It's a post-apocalyptic story. It's well-known that zombie novels generally lack a strong sense of humor, so I'm only including it on this list. It's on the lighter side, but it's the most heartwarming story I've read this year. (Because I'm on the opposite side, I read a story where the protagonist is the main character, but I didn't find it bad, sob.)

Being turned into a lion would have been bad enough, but he was a male lion who had been badly wounded in a fight and was on the verge of death.

    4 The story of a zookeeper who is reborn as a male lion and struggles to join the lion family; the process of him pursuing love is especially adorable!!

    4- A collection of sweet romance stories, the wolf-themed ones really appealed to my taste. The only downside was the lack of a strong sense of human connection. The main drawback was the shorter stories; I personally prefer longer, more structured narratives.

    4+ This is the arduous story of a human reborn as a cheetah and becoming a male mother on the African savanna. Reading it is like watching an animal documentary. (Warning! The protagonist will not revert to human form! He has no human form!)

26. 76 女 The Witch Awakens on the Night of the Werewolves 女巫醒在狼人之夜 Warm Milk Tea溫奶茶Romance963k WordsCompleted Monsters known as werewolves are scattered across this continent.

    4+ The story of the little wolf trying to kidnap the little witch but ultimately being subdued by her strength is very cute. The setting is detailed, the language is beautiful, and it's full of fairytale-like imagination. I've read a lot of Western fantasy novels because of this book. My little girl is the best because she's growing up so well!

    4 A story about a love-struck experimental subject and a doctor who strives to save the world through experiments. The merging of two worlds is a relatively novel concept. (Because the protagonist is so love-struck that he often uses his human form to seduce his wife, his human-like appearance isn't very strong, lol.
