Good Quality BL(and Yaoi)

Many unlimited flow recommendations! List is sorted based off of my personal rating. I believe that all of these novel are first-class, that doesn't mean they are though. Boys love, Shounen Ai and Yaoi. Fun MCs and chill MLs. Mostly 1v1 novels. Mostly Chinese BL. This is international BL.

These are all BL I would most definitely will- and have -reread.

Small disclaimer; As I'm in poor health, I may occasionally write incomplete summaries/reviews for certain novels or not rank them. It will be explicitly stated if I have done so. I would also like to note that oftentimes I may go off on a rant- this is due to my hyper-fixation on unnecessary details resulting from frustration. I usually end up deleting those rants from my summaries.

Translator/Official description:

“Until the day humanity falls.”

In the year 2020, Earth’s magnetic poles disappeared and humankind was nearly wiped out by cosmic radiation. Within the span of a hundred years, living creatures began to mutate and devour each other while the remaining humans, numbering in the tens of thousands, struggled bitterly in their man-made bases.

In the Abyss, home to the mutated xenogenics, there lived a sentient little mushroom. Because it had been nourished by the blood and flesh of the deceased human An Ze, not only did it take on a similar-looking human form, but a similar name as well: An Zhe.

An Zhe is determined to go to the human base to search for his spore, which had been harvested by humans. Once there, however, he faces the omnipresent risk of discovery and certain death as he tries to keep his non-human nature hidden from the Judges, whose responsibility is to inspect for and eliminate xenogenics like himself. And of all the Judges, Colonel Lu Feng is the most perceptive and merciless—as soon as he determines that someone is a xenogenic, he will execute that person on the spot.

But An Zhe’s mutation goes undetected by Lu Feng’s eyes, and so a tale of humans and xenogenics unfolds…

I mtled the whole thing (and read the webtoon/manhua, which is in english btw). It is literally one of the best novels you will ever read. Cold,aloof, rebellious and righteous MC. Non-serious, 'fake', "warm" vibes and equally rebellious ML. The ML and MC are equally as smart and their way of solving issues is a fun take.... more>>

A bit of a mind twister but it is such an..endearing read? The MC is such a scourge yet you literally can't bring yourself to hate him(after the initial first chapter/initial first few parts of the first chapter). Don't be fooled by the fact that this book only has 7 chapters(that I know of), 1 chapter = 5-10 parts(which are equally as long as a chapter,if not longer). This story is one you most definitely don't want to miss.... more>>

*Don't be misled by him "failing" his college entrance exams, he's a high IQ dude*

Translator's description:

Lin Yi failed the college entrance exams and chose a diploma mill university.

And as deserving of a diploma mill university, the first line of the admission letter read:

[Student Lin Yi, we regret to inform that you are admitted to the Unnatural Engineering University.] The second line: 【For your safety, we ask that you read the campus rules repeatedly.】

Unnatural Engineering University Campus Rules:

1: There is only one gate on campus. If you find multiple gates, stay where you are and contact your advisor. Do not try to walk through the gate.

2: If, while walking along the paths within campus, you accidentally start sinking into the cement, please take off your shoes and leave there. If the cement reaches your thighs, please immediately call the principal’s hotline and the infirmary.

3: Only campus cards can be used for to pay for goods on campus. If anyone asks for any other modes of payment, please get far away from there immediately.

4: If there is no class for the day, please stay in your dormitory. Do not go out and never open your door to someone who makes one loud knock and three quiet ones.

5: If you see an unfamiliar face in your dormitory, please observe their feet when they are facing you. If the tips of their feet are facing backwards, please call the dorm manager immediately.

6: The school will only provide hot water from 7:00-21:00,. The rest of the time, please make sure that the taps are twisted tightly shut.

7: There is no evening self-study for all majors in our school. If a late self-study class appears on your class schedule, please turn off the lights and go to bed immediately.

…

On the first day of school, Lin Yi’s feet got stuck in the cement.

Qin Zhou: Classmate, do you need help? Just take off your shoes.

Lin Yi: But these shoes are limited edition QAQ

Qin Zhou: …

＊In view of the fact that a lot of you darlings will deny the shou’s membership in the social phobia group and laugh at how the gong is too sao and can’t win over the shou, this has been corrected to: Wearing the skin of a social phobic but is actually a social terrorist pure little schoolboy x has no problems with social interaction but can never out-talk the shou so can only take other actions, domineering senior <<less

Translator description:

Xie Yang struggled in the post-apocalyptic world for many years until he was too tired to go on. Then he transmigrated into a young adult entertainment circle novel where the protagonists have easy, sweet, and satisfying lives.The male protagonist of the novel is not just handsome and smart, he’s also reborn. The female protagonist of the novel is not only beautiful and works hard towards her dreams, she also has a cheat in her hands.There’s a lot of male and female supporting roles, each having pretty face, nice figures and someone strong behind them. Get into any one of their bodies, and he could close his eyes and just enjoy life. But he didn’t. Instead he transmigrated into a young idol secretly married to the biggest villain of all — the male protagonist’s maternal uncle.His title is husband but it’s more like a nurse. Because this novel’s biggest villain is a terminally ill patient who is gloomy and sick in the head (actually sick). Their marriage was to counter the bad luck (illness).Xie Yang: Who cares if you’re the male lead, female lead, male supporting, female supporting, villain or protagonist. Get in the way of my comfortable life and you’ll die

(:Also titled: [Daily life of husbands trading blows] – [If you love me, let’s divorce] – [Crazy gong: I’ll never divorce]

---------------------------------------------------------

My rant on the novel: When I first read the summary I expected this novel to be very cliché, an cold,aloof and somehow smart(aka braindead) MC who is also an amazing actor/singer/Idol adored by all and an even colder and more aloof,overbearing CEO ML who has the whooping cough or something as his terminal illness and hates the og MC until (our) MC takes over their body. A brainpit here, a brainpit there.

Boy was I wrong.

The MC is more overbearing than the ML. I dare someone to try and mess with him. The MC is actually strong and independent alongside being very analytical and good at strategizing. The ML is very reserved but shy, he also likes to act spoiled at times (especially towards his mother),he's too shy to even kiss our MC let alone take the initiative.Powerful beauty shou x Handsome and reserved gong.When the MC says he can handle an issue, he means it. Someone uses me to jump up to stardom? Ruin their career. A little green tea dad wants to use me to build connections? Let him try, I wonder if he'll still want to mess with me when my hubby screws his company into bankruptcy. Someone is bullying my dear husband? It seems that they've lived long enough.If the MC has connections, he will use them. If the MC has haters, he will use them. Fans? Usable. Screwed up family? Usable. I love the way the original protagonists are written out and I love how twisted some of the villains in this novel are, who said mu*der can't be artistic? Clearly not the villain. <<less

It's a 90s highschool setting. It's cute. I'm unfortunately not a big fan of step-sibling romance(even if they don't know their parents are married to the other's) but it's still a cute and sweet love-story that literally transcends the barriers of time. It also demonstrates that you should put learning as one of your top priorities (not to the point of unhealthy stress or physical/mental health issues).... more>>

Comedy Drama Mature Romance Yaoi

*summary underneath my little review on the novel*... more>>

MC is fiesty, no green tea can beat him. He literally started his acting career by (keyword:)pretending to be a super duper cliché standard holy father and realizing that acting is really fun. ML is really chill and fun, behaving exactly like what someone his age (23-27) should, happy and fun loving.

It's a funny story of a one-night-stand turning into friends with benefits to bestfriends with benefits and finally lovers.

The end few chapters(last 5)were kinda boring though.

*I surprisingly felt bad for the super annoying green tea brother, the author wrote his mental process in a very interesting way.*

Translator's description:

Shen QingShu, 22, died in an accident. His biggest regret before his death was that he’d been single all his life. He obviously wasn’t a monk, but he’d never eaten meat.

Then, when he opened his eyes, he saw a handsome, self-assured man standing before him. The handsome man parted his thin lips slightly and asked, “Wanna have a one-night stand?” Shen QingShu didn’t hesitate at all. “Let’s do it! Twice!” The next morning, Shen QingShu woke up aching all over. Only then did he discover he’d transmigrated into a book. The handsome guy beside him who’d gone two rounds with him was the protagonist gong, Han Cheng, the second son of the Han Group and the original owner of this body was just a disliked, death-seeking cannon fodder.

Shen QingShu: …Well, this is f*cking awkward. But Shen QingShu didn’t panic. Anyway, he was just a cannon fodder. He figured they’d part in a few daysHe knew he was a tool man, a character who only existed to develop the plot.-Half a year later-Shen QingShu looked at the man next to him and wondered: It’s been more than six months. Why hasn’t he left already?Until the day he saw the protagonist shou and Han Cheng meet by accident.

Tool man Shen QingShu immediately felt the call of duty. Eyes shining, he prepared to push the plot forward.“Don’t come looking for me in the future.” Shen QingShu was extremely self-aware. Han Cheng was shocked. “Why? Do you have feelings for someone else? Who is it?”

Shen QingShu: … Darling, this reaction isn’t quite right.

“I don’t accept this,” Han Cheng said, furious. “One day as husband and wife means a hundred days of grace. Can you even calculate how much grace we have?”

Shen QingShu: … No, wait, what are you talking about? It’s not like I’m your wife. I’m just a tool man, and it’s time for me to go offline!

However, Shen QingShu found that not only did the protagonist gong refuse to let him go offline, he was going to make him his bride!

Shen QingShu: I’m crying. <<less
