Top BL novels with immersive worlds
My favourite BL novels with well-crafted plots, solid world-building and compelling characters. Most importantly - these stories should all have emotional impact (in various ways) -  from light-hearted and soul-soothing fluff, to intense apocalyptic settings, or devastating emotional thrillers. No particular order
