Pure Yuri Romance, One-on-One
All are 1v1, and the list is ongoing. Completed works will be marked.
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
(No Romance) Fun Reads That Never Get Old
I'll periodically clean out stories that seem to have died, meow.
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
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.
For Personal Use: Yuri and Male-to-Female Yuri
Ongoing / completed / main story completed (that counts as completed, too).
The Withered Lily Garden.
Updated 2026.9.27. Collecting high-quality GL novels. (All finished reading.) P.S. I'll flag any disgusting dealbreakers. Removed the ones I didn't enjoy.
Made a List to Pass the Time: Mostly Gender-Bender, with Some Solo Romance
Detailed Recommendations for Top-Tier Yuri
I read all kinds of GL, whatever the genre. Here are a few good books. I'll add reviews as I remember. For authors with multiple books, I'll only recommend their most iconic one.
The Cat's Cafe
A little tribute to the books that left a lasting impression on me.
For My Own Use as a Yuri Fan
Based on my personal preferences, this list includes only gender-bender yuri and yuri with confirmed couples. I won't include discontinued novels.
Underrated Quality Reads
Updated 2026.6.8 (A belated good luck on the college entrance exams!) The original purpose of this list was to collect and promote some obscure but well-written free books that have been buried because they don't fit the trends on Loli Bao. I think helping more people discover these books is the only and best thing I can do, though ultimately it's probably just self-indulgence on my part (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄) Also: I'll try to pick books with fewer saves but a decent word count, and update or prune the
Records, Reviews, and Recommendations
Keeping track of, reviewing, and recommending the web novels I've read
You, Blooming Like a Winter Flower (Yuri)
[Updated 12.28] Includes both yuri and gender-bender yuri. I'm busy with school and don't have time to read for now. I'll look for more books when I get the chance. I've put together some books I personally think are good. There'll be both popular and more obscure titles. I'll do my best to sum up their pros and cons. I'll check back regularly and add more good books. How quickly I update depends on how much I read. If you like this list, please give it a like. Pretty please (≧∇≦)/
Pure Romance Yuri
Yuri 1v1, including gender-bent yuri and pure yuri. Most have a submissive protagonist.
Overlooked Great Yuri, Including Pure Yuri and Gender-Bender Yuri
This list features GL works over 100,000 characters long that are high-quality but haven't done well. I hope to give authors who take their writing seriously more exposure, and help readers with nothing to read discover more good books. (The list is updated from time to time.)

Sokhov's Invited Commentary
This work's characteristics and structure are highly similar to a series of serious fantasy or "new fantasy" works from the early 1980s to before 2000. Its main difference from Pineapple Bun's typical fantasy works lies in the fact that the latter's stories, while featuring moe/otaku elements, actually originate from the "classic fantasy" of the first half of the 20th century, such as the *Conan the Barbarian* series. A key characteristic of late 20th-century serious fantasy is the graying of characters (such as Artemis Entrepreneur, Trist's nemesis, and Rae the Rabbit), who are no longer "chosen ones" or "naturally righteous saviors." Secondly, it features a highly complex and innovative thought-experiment-style setting system (typically...).
Some thoughts
This novel constructs a stunning fantasy world. The author skillfully depicts a world caught between power struggles and a spirit of adventure, where every detail is meticulously crafted, and every faction has its own agenda, creating a highly immersive reading experience. Personally, I found the character of Violet Veronica particularly moving. She gradually transforms from an idealistic time traveler into a pragmatic navigator of reality, yet always maintains an unyielding inner spirit. Most touching is that even as life wears down her edges, she continues to uphold her principles in her own way, making this character incredibly compelling...
Updates may become less consistent recently. The plot is nearing its climax, and various exams are also approaching. For the best final result, I will probably write out all the plot details and release them all at once. Yes, I'm an idiot who doesn't have the habit of saving up drafts.
A high-concept worldview + political struggle + high-IQ showdown. Unprecedented worldviews and species, unfamiliar forces and factions, entirely new laws of physics. The cognitive cost of all this is too high; the climax of the battle requires an additional layer of high information density. It's too exhausting to watch.
It's heartbreaking to see such a high-quality work go unnoticed; the author deserves all the credit.
Where did this come from? Is this the kind of high quality I can find on BLB? I can only say that it's an honor for BLB to attract authors.
You're amazing! 100 Points! Before reading this book, I was just browsing aimlessly. It has a beauty that transcends this platform.
Vera's tenderness
At the center of attention, a dance drama
"At the center of attention, a dance drama unfolds. A beautiful woman strides confidently into the crowd, rising from an open space to dance, showcasing her talent and elegance, generously lavishing praise upon herself." — *Candle Feather Star String* is a magnificent work. It is captivating enough, unexpected enough, and radiant enough. It is a dazzling star of idealism. — "She needs a stage. A mere open space under scrutiny cannot fully express her talent. She knows she can stand at the highest point; she wants the world to witness her brilliance, to have those who appreciate her beauty spontaneously gather." — Magnificent works often require magnificent stages...
With exams approaching these days, updates will be unstable.
