Nocturne for a Certain Nun
Recently added divine reads, with lesser-known books prioritized. (Mainly niche stories, no NTR or harems.) Also recommending some of my favorite Japanese light novel classics: Kieli, The Dragon Girl, Shoki Ginyuroku, The Tale of the Desert Kingdom, and Where the Wings Rest. I came to these from reading Japanese light novels. These few genuinely moved me. They're light novels that are now rather obscure. Looking back, when I first started reading novels, I was always searching for the spark in p

Memories worth keeping
Pure Love Wins!
A collection of excellent pure-romance stories from Bilibili Comics (in my opinion). Some are bittersweet, some are moving, and not all of them have an ending (some authors abandoned them). Everything on this list is something I've read ( ). There are lots of other great books I haven't read yet. I'll add them as soon as I finish them.
My Personal Gender-Swap Novel Recommendations
Gender-swap novels I've read and thought were pretty good.
My Little Collection
I've been on Boba Bun for quite a while, so my taste is probably trustworthy. Yep, they're all gender-bender stories. (I've kicked out the abandoned ones.) Unfinished means older books that are still updating; ongoing means new books.
Bring Me Some Good Gender-Bender Romance
Ever since joining Pinecone, I've kept a close eye on the gender-bender section. I've found a few books that I'd call good, so I'm sharing them with everyone. (Anything I add to my list is guaranteed to be well written.)
My Personal Collection
Helping lesser-known books with substance find readers, and helping readers with nothing to read find books with substance. A wide variety of content, mostly gender-bender romance.
Gender-Bender Yuri I Read
Gender-bender, pure love. There seem to be fewer and fewer stories I can keep reading. So many get abandoned halfway through. And without any explicit scenes or a driver to take us there, they're just no fun. I'd rather have a eunuch than no driver or sweet moments at all. ╭(╯^╰)╮ I shouldn't have clicked on this bookshelf. Another book's been taken down QAQ. A world without drivers is a cold one.
Gender-Bender Romance: Recent Releases and Some Great Older Reads
Not much to say. If I had to, these are all pure romance, with no NTR and no harem, gender-bender-to-bride stories. (Two or three of them keep coming back from the dead.)
Quality Gender-Bender Romance
A collection of pretty enjoyable gender-swap novels. Generally, there aren't many deal-breakers, and I update it regularly. I'll remove novels that have gone on hiatus or fallen apart.

Must-Reads for Pure Romance Fans (Including Gender-Swap Yuri)
Books I've read over the years: one-on-one romance, all sweet enough to enjoy without worry, with great plots and writing. Come on in and have a look~
Quality Books from My Bookshelf
A bit of everything. At least one of the writing or the plot is excellent.
Heal the Heart, Ignite Your Passion, Break Through Your Limits.
No need for a long introduction. They're all gems! I've left out quite a few that fell off later on.
Combat (Most of These Have Plenty of Fights)
They're mostly passionate action anime-style stories, and they're all well worth a read.

The sweet moments were indeed delightful, but the plot was definitely lacking. If we say a perfect score of 10 stars The Hero and Demon King's sweet moments are 8 stars, the main storyline is at most 5 stars. But I search for this type of text just to get some sweetness, that's all that matters. I stayed up all night reading it, and all that PDA left me feeling full.
It looks amazing right now.
Although it's a cliché story of a demon king and a hero, plus a hypocritical church and corrupt nobles, the content is anything but cliché. The comments and reviews are full of complaints about things like "the hero with a stick," which I don't know because I don't watch much anime, but that doesn't affect my enjoyment of the book at all. This book has too many elements, yet it doesn't feel out of place at all; I have to admire the author. The beginning is the kind of easy victory everyone loves, and the sweetness isn't cloying at all. Although at first I thought the hero was the villain when he betrayed his teammates, I later realized that no one was truly good. The demon king is definitely a pushover from the start; from the hero's past life when he fought the demon king, the demon king had a winning hand...
A new book has been released.
Personal rant. The plot after the hero's death in this book was so frustrating. Although I've recently caught up on some parts, I can't shake that awkward feeling. I'm a very immersive reader, and the ten years just flew by, then suddenly the scene shifted to a war in the human world. It felt very disjointed. How did the little demon king's mentality change? Why did he leave the male lead to fend for himself? And why did he sleep with a ten-year-old child? The ending was also very confusing.
When I read Chapter 5, I thought I was attacked by a minotaur, but thankfully Chapter 6 explained it. Although it was said that I was bitten... It shouldn't be considered a minotaur, since I wasn't penetrated. Those damned minotaurs, I, a pure warrior, will kill them all!
Are there any stories about a woman who gets married initially but then becomes sweet? I really love angst.
A few thoughts
This is the most engaging read I've found recently. I've read quite a few remarriage stories over the past five or six years, and in my experience, some are silly enough but not sweet enough, while others are overly sweet like female-oriented novels. Some have sophisticated writing but lack the necessary skill, while others have good writing but lack sophistication. In short, the genre itself is niche, and truly excellent works are even rarer. Many people have great ideas, but they often fail to write well due to a lack of persistence or insufficient writing ability. Compared to similar works on Pineapple Bun, I've previously read two books by Ma Xuanhuang. They had amazing beginnings, but the subsequent frequent breaks in updates, almost to the point of a hiatus, and a decline in writing quality all point to the challenges of writing remarriage stories that border on hard science fiction...
Backstabbing readers, throwing away one's carefully crafted persona.
I've read about a third of it. The tsundere wife/domineering hero and the demon king's constant back-and-forth banter in the beginning are really captivating and right up my alley. Because of school, I've been staying up until 2 or 3 AM every night to read it. Like the description said when it was first published, this book was just a spur-of-the-moment idea, something I wrote for fun. The beginning is readable, but it becomes pure history later, gradually turning into a moe story, and then there's the part about being locked up in the alchemy tower for years to explain the demon king's naiveté. With these explanations and my own mental preparation, I can tolerate almost anything, but the main perspective should be the female lead, right? We're reading about the female lead, not some overpowered protagonist rampaging through everything. Why not just stick to the initial idea, level up, uncover the truth about the church, and let the male and female leads gradually develop their relationship...?
Updated November 8th
All I can say is, once you've finished the academy arc, don't read any more. It's already finished anyway. First, it's angsty; second, it's very awkward; and third, the writing isn't very good. It's best to stop reading after finishing the academy arc.
