Yuri Is the Best
High-quality yuri recommendations (updated regularly)
Male-to-Female Yuri!!!
Just something for myself to browse when I'm bored. Gender-bender GL romances and 1V-many stories I think are good (mostly romance).
Yuri Is the Best~
Here are some GL books that suit my tastes, mostly romance, and most are ones I could really get into. A few have been on hiatus, but I love them anyway (actually, the ones I love most are always going on hiatus, sob). Anyway, I hope you all find something delicious to enjoy here. 😋 Also, a lot of these are books I read a while ago. I picked ones I remember, but I might have some details wrong, so please correct me, meow.
Only the Best Gender-Bender Stories
Good genderbender stories. I don't write, I just read. The heart of genderbender stories is romance and conflict. When men become women, they end up even more feminine than women, becoming only the idealized women of their imaginations. The women men imagine are inevitably pure, kind, virtuous, and perfect. After transforming, the protagonist will inevitably change in this way. The core of genderbender stories is adapting to and struggling with the new identity, coming to terms with it, and all
Yuri and Pure Yuri Recommendations
Recommending some gender-bender yuri and pure yuri stories, with star ratings and some thoughts on the ones I've read. Hopefully, there won't be any poison pills. Rated from 1 to 5 stars (subjectively), with a preference for new releases. Think of this as a weekly tasting and selection. I don't rate new books, just give my personal recommendations (there are barely any new books worth reading, after all). Update: I realized I've recommended quite a few axed stories, so I'll try to weed them out.
For Personal Use (Mostly Male-to-Female Yuri)
Personal preferences only.
Finished Reading
All are completed yuri novels over a million words long. I can only list 30, so I added them at random.

Includes stories with marriage, yuri, submissive ( ) and more.
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
Pure Romance Yuri
Yuri 1v1, including gender-bent yuri and pure yuri. Most have a submissive protagonist.
Gender-Bender Yuri Is the Best!
This list is dedicated to collecting quality gender-transformation yuri novels on this platform.
Angsty Yet Great Gender-Bender Yuri and Romance
I like stories where the protagonist suffers, sweet romance, GL cuddles, and gender-bender romance. There's a bit of everything on this list, but I'll label each book's traits, so browse without worry. They're all treasured favorites of mine.
Transformation, Transformation, Transformation
Stories about girls who have transformed into heroines. May you find a new beginning in this world. (All sorts of stories included.) The order doesn't indicate ranking. An * marks a particularly unusual style that most people might not enjoy. One other book used to be here, but was rebooted on Ciweimao: "The Sufficient but Not Necessary Conditions for Becoming a Shipgirl" Ones marked as abandoned (cough) probably won't be updated again. I removed some short stories that were abandoned. I've rem

Where Lilies Bloom (Top-Tier Reads)
You authors, if you aren't prepared to die, don't write novels! (Angry) 😡😡😡😡 This list includes completed books and ongoing ones. Absolutely none are abandoned.
Yuri and Gender-Bender Yuri That All You Fussy Darlings Love
A list of yuri and gender-bender-to-yuri stories. They're all interesting, and each has its merits. A little something special, recommended with love!

A Collection of Hidden-Gem Gender-Bender Stories!!
All gender-bender yuri, with guaranteed quality and quantity! Gender-bender yuri gems are the best. I'll dig up the undiscovered ones for you. So good! Updated with great gender-bender yuri whenever.
My Personal Collection of Gender-Bender Stories
This list includes, but isn't limited to, books with a good pace, few overly cutesy elements, a clear romantic storyline, an established relationship, lots of sweetness, and some steamy ones too.
My Favorite Novels, with Detailed Reasons for Each Recommendation
I don't really like novels that pull me out of the story too much with excessive memes. These are mostly plot-driven, with romance as a secondary focus. Yuri is the main pairing; I'll note any other kinds of romance separately.
Gender-Bender-to-Female Romance with a Little Spice
High-Quality Gender-Bender Stories with Female Leads and Yuri, No Toxic Content or Dumbing Down, Ongoing Updates
I've been a reader for years, and I've explored all kinds of gender-swap and transformation novels, comics, and anime, including all sorts of material from before the authorities cracked down. Now that SF is just starting to take off, many older works are buried deep in my bookshelf and may be hard for everyone to find. I'm using this list to recommend them to you. There may also be some promising new books. I'll update the list as soon as I find highly recommended new works or rediscover old on
Cat's Picks: Yuri Novels
Personal Recommendations: Gender-Bender Yuri and Gender-Bender-to-Female Romance from the Past Two Years, Happy-End Pure-Love Sweet Romance
Includes yuri and gender-bender-to-marriage stories. All are at least 200,000 characters, so there's a guarantee of length and quality. On Loli-Bao, of course there are loli stories. No eunuch stories (except for the ones that update slowly). They're basically all sweet romance. Stories tagged "Harem King" aren't pure romance.

Evaluation from both the reader's and author's perspectives (personal and subjective)
Let's start with the strengths. First and foremost, it's undeniable that the writing style, or rather, the prose, is excellent. Reading it from beginning to end is very comfortable; as the saying goes, good writing can cover a multitude of flaws. This writing style is exactly my type. It's rare to find. Furthermore, each or every three pages creates a sense of anticipation. This can also be interpreted as well-placed transitions, making the reader want to keep reading. This compels the reader to keep reading, and keep reading. Undoubtedly, the biggest highlight of this book is the content in the synopsis. But if it's presented directly, how will it be handled later? The author cleverly expands upon it, and while expanding, another...
Don't argue.
There is a section where a novice poet holds
Let me first describe the progress I've seen: the Snake Chapter, mid-to-late stage. In my understanding, a good romantic relationship is built on a deep existing bond and unconditional trust, where one partner completely surrenders to the other, seemingly humiliating and unequal, but actually based on mutual understanding and trust. I also feel the author is writing in this direction. Even though some parts of the earlier content were a little heartbreaking or unfair, at most it just made me smile and feel content to continue watching the couple's back-and-forth. However, after Xiaoqing is locked up and Xiaobai ascends to the Earth Immortal realm, there are already subtle signs of an imbalance in their positions. Although Xiaobai certainly wouldn't misuse the lock subjectively, objectively...
Hmm... I was really enjoying Tornado at first, but then they told me it's ending!?
Not amazing, but a very comfortable read.
It really really comes down to a talented new author! So far, it's been a very enjoyable read, with well-structured plots and engaging character interactions that are fun and never awkward. This is far superior to some veteran authors who have written several bestsellers but still manage to padded out their work with incredibly cringeworthy writing, numerous plot holes, and a lot of ambiguous narration. (੭•͈ω•͈)੭๐♡.๐ I hope the author continues writing and doesn't just abandon the project without a word! ꒰* ॢꈍ◡ꈍ ॢ꒱✿
It's strange, why is the number of reviews for this book growing so slowly, and there are hardly any long reviews, even though it's so popular?
Well, it has a bit of a Stockholm syndrome feel to it.
To be honest, author, this plot is alright for lighthearted reading. In the first volume, Xiaoqing puts on the Dragon Binding Lock for Bai Xingning's sake, and how does Bai Xingning treat her? Such a typical Chinese parenting style, "I'm doing this for your own good" is always on her lips, and then sex scenes are as commonplace as eating and drinking. It just shows how much she caters to readers' tastes. I heard there's a "wife-chasing" trope later, but I haven't seen it yet. But this plot alone will probably deter many readers from continuing. Don't try to justify it with the established settings; what's done is done. Readers are looking for their impression, not the established settings. Even tragic novels don't go this far; at least the protagonists in other novels did something at the beginning...
It felt like there was absolutely no inequality in Ye Jin and Bai's relationship. It was always Bai taking and Ye giving. Even when Bai lost his memory and became six years old (I haven't read the rest yet), it was still Bai who benefited. Every time he helped Ye Jin, it was Bai who got the satisfaction. At the beginning at Zuiyue Tower, Bai was the sugar daddy and Ye was a prostitute. Later, when she wore the Dragon Binding Rope, it was even more obvious. There was always a master-slave dynamic, which made me very uncomfortable watching.
This is the first review I wrote after reading a complete book on BLB.
I finished reading it in four days. It's really well-written, the best book I've seen on BLB (I almost thought I was reading on JJ! 😆). This is also my first time writing a long review. Let me share my thoughts. The Ningzhou chapter is very well-written. I came in expecting something like "Se Se," but I was captivated by the plot. Every character in the Ningzhou chapter is very well-developed: Manager Liu's care, Doctor Tangyuan's accurate judgment of people, and Sword Master's "emptiness." Through Xiao Qing's understanding of the cultivation world, the book unfolds a panorama of the cultivation world for the reader. I think this chapter is perfect. Regarding the Yaoguang chapter, judging from the reviews and the author's comments on the last chapter, some say it wasn't well-written, but I personally think it's still quite good...
