High-Standard Yuri Personally Vetted by Me (Completed)
Is it chocolate or poop? You won't know until you try it 😋 (Everything on this list is recommended. I haven't included books I don't recommend or books that aren't finished. The star ratings only indicate the order of my recommendations.)
Creating a Paradise Without Marriage
This list doesn't include stories where the protagonist ends up marrying a man. The main themes, besides Western fantasy, are devoted women and yandere characters 😋 Their intense emotions are exactly what I crave. Also, I prefer stories focused on a single protagonist, so I'm very unlikely to recommend ensemble casts. Dedicated to the memory of my youth. I've decided to add an update and revision log 🧐 2025.7.29 Added a new book Updated the recommendation blurb for The Witch 2025.8.7 Added a n

Western Fantasy, 1v1, Plot-Focused Yuri, Let's Go!
I like Western fantasy novels that focus on plot, but there are so few of them on Boba Bun that I can never get enough! So I made this list both to share what I've read and to ask others to share recommendations.
Some... Books... I Guess
Nobody reads my list anyway, so I might as well add some overlooked books with really great plots.
Books I've Mostly Finished
Seems pretty good.
Great Finished Bannuo Bao Reads! Plenty to Keep You Full (Eclectic Tastes)
Books on Bilibili Comics have had an alarmingly high dropout rate in recent years. And good completed books rarely get recommended to users, so I'm sharing some good completed books I've read. (I do have standards for writing, so I won't recommend anything too simplistic.) I hope this can freshen up the atmosphere on the platform.
Yuri Novels of All Kinds
Most are complete, and the quality is top-notch. There are all kinds of stories, both one-on-one and one-to-many. No toxic content.
Who Doesn't Love Gender-Bender Cuddles?
No heartbreak, high sweetness, and plenty of romantic tension. A must-have for fans (still studying the craft!).

Books with Strong Prose or Logic
I'll recommend books that I think are well written and have coherent plots and logic. Since they're all books I've read, I may have some obvious genre preferences, and my reviews will be personal. I'll try to include a variety, mixing old and new. I'll mention what I think each book does well and any problems, and try to be as objective as possible. I hope you find something good to read. P.S. I'll keep updating this as long as I don't leave Bilibili, but my standards are pretty high, so don't g

Everything I put here is a good book!
Lolis Are the Best: Cuddly Everyday Yuri, Small and Cute
Attention, attention, attention! This is for people who like reading about lolis. If you're into lolis, you'll love these. The protagonists in every book are lolis, one cuter than the next, with an average height under 1.5 meters. Sounds perfect for loli-con fans, right? ✿✿ヽ(°▽°)ノ✿ Some books feature delicate, tsundere, easy-to-seduce girls; others go from resisting fiercely to pretending not to care. Magical girl cities, otherworlds, heroes. It's Bilibili Lite, after all, so there aren't many o

Yuri Reading List 2, 12.01
Putting some older books here. This list is full, so I'll continue with a third list.
Long, High-Quality Novels (Gender-Bender Yuri and Gender-Bender Solo Romance)
I guarantee every book on this list is over 1.5 million words, so you'll be crying, "Where did the time go?!" Quality guaranteed, too! I don't recommend bad books. They're all top-notch works on Pinecone. This list covers both obscure and popular titles. If you're out of things to read, come take a look. Obscure just means less popular, not poorly written... In short, I want to spare more readers the pain of finding something to read. Everything here features gender transformation, either into a

Good books, most of them already quite long, and quite a few are finished. The same authors may have other good books, too, so check them out.
Pure Romance, 1-On-1: Yuri, Gender-Bender Yuri, and Gender-Bender Romance
I made this list to share some of the books I like with everyone. There aren’t many, but I can guarantee they’re good. I’m not a strict reader of gender-bender yuri, pure yuri, or gender-bender-to-male stories. But as a devoted pure-romance fan, I absolutely won’t include harems or NTR. Romance is sweetest when it’s between just two people!!! In gender-bender-to-female stories on this list, the heroines’ male identities fade away. After all, I don’t like men in women’s bodies, and I absolutely w
My Favorite Fun Female-Protagonist Stories (Gender-Bender Yuri, Female Leads, or Gender-Bender Romance)
First of all, every book on this list has a female protagonist. Genderbent female leads, genderbender-to-romance stories, and similar works are labeled accordingly. My personal tastes are the main guide, and most books have intelligent characters and good writing. (I really can't get into books that feel too childish.) I try to avoid the big hits and books that are still in their early chapters, and choose stories with a decent number of chapters. The order is random. I have a wide range of tast
Recommended Gender-Bender Novels
Everyone knows how painful it is to run out of things to read, and it's even worse when there are no yuri tags, so I'm here to recommend some good yuri or TS stories~ (Novels abandoned or on hiatus for over a month will be removed from the list. I update it about once a month.) (Completed novels will stay on the list.) (There are exceptions. If I think a book is especially good, I'll keep it on the list regardless of its update status, but I'll make that clear.)
Yuri!
The Righteous Yuri Knights.
If It's Good, That's All That Matters.
Mostly GL and SFL stories. How will you know if they're your thing unless you give them a try? (The list is full. I occasionally swap out recommendations, so feel free to browse my bookshelf.)
Gender-Bender Yuri and Gender-Bender Solo Collection
Mostly high-quality completed and ongoing books. I read them first and only add them if they seem free of major issues. Feel free to message me with recommendations, too. There haven't been many good books lately, so I suggest checking out the neighboring lists.

I just realized the author has started a new book after finishing the previous one, but it's a male protagonist story.
I recommend skipping chapters after reading Chapter 3, "The Demon King is Born in Flames," and starting from around Chapter 4, around page 144, where Orna and Lori reunite. You'll then discover a perfect, undisputed masterpiece.
It's a pretty good novel, but some parts are unclear.
Book review, with some personal complaints. I initially started reading this novel simply because it had a yuri (lesbian) tag. This review is mainly to vent or complain about the frustration I've been building up while reading the fourth volume. First, the book review: I discovered the novel two weeks ago, and I've read more than half of the fourth volume. The first three volumes were very enjoyable to read. The protagonist went from being extreme to being changed by Orna and others and starting to make friends. The character development was quite successful; the protagonist didn't experience much of a drop in intelligence (note: not much). Most of the villains, while not exceptionally intelligent, didn't have significant intellectual disabilities. The plot was also reasonable, with sweet moments and angst that was handled with moderate intensity. In summary...
The beginning and end of "The Flame Demon God" feel like two separate books.
The early part was undoubtedly excellent. After the Flame Demon God arc, the protagonist was largely absent for a long time. When he finally reappeared, it was immediately followed by the Water Heir War and then the academy life (why do Western fantasy series always have two princes and princesses forming factions and fighting in the imperial city? Why keep focusing on that academy life?). And Orna, who finally showed some improvement in her mindset (she was planning to retire and live a quiet life before the Flame Demon God arc), was reincarnated and continued to be kind and make enemies everywhere. When things went wrong, the protagonist had to clean up the mess (after the character was reset, he was just a completely indecisive tool). Also, the Demon King and the insectoid race were built up for so long, with such grand pronouncements, but then they practically disappeared...
Please 🙏🏻 Please write one more side story, just one 🤏, even just one 🤏 Please 🙏🏻 I'll never scold you again, bro, I'm so itchy, please, I'll be good, I won't cause trouble anymore 🤐, please bro, just give me one, my body is itchy to death 😖 Please bro, just give me one last time, please 🙏🏻 Bro, I'll give you anything you want, just give me one more story 🤏
My nose felt a little sore from reading the prologue.
The author's prologue is amazing; it made me completely empathize with the characters. Oh, and let me mention something: although I didn't lose either parent and had a comfortable childhood, I did experience... Well, mild bullying. Initially, I endured it, but after four or five years (during elementary school), I couldn't take it anymore and told the teacher. All I got in return was, "You're all kids, roughhousing is inevitable. Why are you the only one being bullied? Why not others?" In total, I was extorted out of over 1000 yuan through physical violence. Other than that, I was just punched, kicked, and verbally abused a few times. Although my experiences are far less dramatic than the protagonist's (prologue)...
This ending is the worst NTR (Netorare) ending I've ever seen in all my years of reading novels. Was this all Jack's companionship and sacrifices could earn him? It's hard to imagine what the author was thinking when writing this ending; the final few chapters completely ruined three characters.
This is my first time writing a book review.
This is my first time writing a book review, so I'll start with a disclaimer. The following are just my personal opinions, and I welcome friendly discussion. Firstly, in terms of content, this book, in my opinion, is divided into two parts: the first three chapters form one part, and the last five chapters form another. The first part has a very tight pace, and the foreshadowing is very well connected, making it an overall excellent story. The first part mainly tells the adventure story of Lori and her companions. They emerge from an inconspicuous village in the Kingdom of Florence, making new friends, venturing to archipelagos in the ocean, experiencing the death and betrayal of their companions, and touching upon the darkest aspects of life...
