It's Not Easy Being the Villainess's Older Sister

Free Yuri Grab Bag

1. Selection criteria: Over 1,000 readers, more than 200,000 characters, and free to read. Completed novels are preferred. 2. I don't have time to check every novel individually, so if you spot a dud, a gender-bender into a woman, or a story that pairs a woman with a woman, feel free to let me know so I can remove it or weed it out. 3. This list is data-focused, not a recommendation list. The latest statistics are current as of November 5, 2026. I'll update it from time to time to make room fo

Oranges

Some novels with good writing. (Most feature one top and multiple bottoms.)

Pure-Love Yuri: Reading Now and Completed

Books that go a long time without updates will be removed.

Made a List to Pass the Time: Mostly Gender-Bender, with Some Solo Romance

Super~Big~Cup! A Veteran Reader's Bookshelf

Superb gems among new releases, plus towering favorites from my bookshelf that are worth revisiting! A selection for seasoned readers! I'll list plenty of well-written books that never show up on the homepage. (Most are GL, with some gender-bender romance and male-lead stories mixed in.) Even if a book has gone on hiatus, I'll note where I stopped reading. (Some abandoned works have really stuck with me, but most are definitely complete.)

Pure Yuri Romance Is an Unbreakable Tradition

Every book on this list is pure yuri romance, with no gender-bending and no harem. Most are still updating or have been completed. In an age when pure yuri romance is in decline, these books are precious. Even the finest wine can languish in a hidden alley. Great works often lack good ways to reach readers, and flowers that don't get the nourishment they need in time may wither before they bloom. Everyone has different dealbreakers, so some things I don't consider dealbreakers may bother you.

Just for Fun

Most are TS. These stories take their writing seriously and rarely rely on tired internet memes.

Some Books I Like

A collection of books I like. I may update it from time to time. A few books aren't finished, but I included them anyway because I really think they're great.

For Personal Use

Great Reads With Good Writing and Few Annoying Tropes

Way better than those crappy school essays. Not a rambling account, and they have their own distinctive qualities (I think).

Lots of Cuddles, No Toxicity, Yuri (Including Gender-Bender Yuri)

Only high-quality yuri novels that are either ongoing with regular updates or completed. The focus is mainly on heroines pursuing the hero, with no frustrating plot points, likable characters, smooth prose, and a consistent overall tone. Even better if there's some spicy stuff.jpg

Quality Female-Protagonist Stories (Half for My Own Use)

This is basically a personal reading list, but I've added brief descriptions, so feel free to save it if you're interested. List rules: 1. Includes books I've fully subscribed to, along with free works I think are excellent. 2. Only one work per author. If an author has a newer, more interesting early work, I'll try to include that one instead. 3. Mostly complete works, or exceptionally long works still in progress, provided they meet rule 2. 4. This is a personal record, so it only includes sto

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.

Pure-Love Yuri, One-on-One

Pure romance. Good books shouldn't be buried. Digging up the aroma of wine hidden down a quiet alley. Unless I really love a book, I'll remove it if it takes too long to update.

Pure Romance Yuri

Yuri 1v1, including gender-bent yuri and pure yuri. Most have a submissive protagonist.

Say No to Sameness, Starting with You and Me??

There are more and more stories on SF with similar plots. You can practically tell what they're about just from the title. To help everyone avoid reader fatigue, I'm recommending a few books.

Yuri for My Personal Collection

For my own yuri reading

There's Something Here to Sink Your Teeth Into!

These are some of the most interesting books I've read on Pinecone. The genres are varied, including male-led stories, yuri with gender-bent characters, and single-protagonist stories, as well as danmei, angst, and mind games. The scale is out of 10, but a relatively low score doesn't necessarily mean a book is bad. It's just my personal rating compared with the other books on this list. I don't think there's a dud here (probably).

Yuri Recommendations

I first opened this app in December 2023. Here are some yuri novels I've read and want to recommend. Some are older books I dug up while treasure hunting, while others are currently updating or were just released and have already become favorites of mine. I've included a mix of both. They're all about girls getting together, but they also explore a variety of worlds and genres. Some feature overpowered characters, some are healing stories, and some are everyday slice-of-life. But above all, they

Pure Yuri Paradise

This list features some of the pure yuri (and pure romance) books on this app. (Sadly, you can only add 30 books. I looked for a long time and found 105 pure yuri books on this app with enough words to qualify.) This list aims to promote the pure and unblemished culture of pure yuri as a sanctuary of purity.

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

No Gender-Bending, Please. Here's Some Pure Yuri

I don't understand why gender-bending is so popular on Boluobao. After reading a lot of gender-bender yuri, I feel that many authors include gender-bending just for its own sake. They write a lively, spirited girl, then have her say, "How could I be like this? I'm a man!" It's completely unnecessary. As a traditionalist, of course I support pure yuri. This list will also include some stories with very little emphasis on gender-bending, and I'll mark them accordingly.
