♂ ✧˚ · genuinely good bl recommendations · ˚✧ ♂

read a few bls when i was younger but never managed to get into them until jan '22 since whichi have read them everyday. decided to make my own list to filter out the genuinely amazing ones.
happy reading :)
☯ main story reviews! i rarely read non-mc side stories.
❀ every story will have a number /10 with it; assume anything above 7.5 is amazing. i am just stingy with high numbers.
❆ there may be some older stories i dont like anymore on here lol

another fantasy bl! our mc is tasked to save the world and wakes up in a world where he's engaged to the grand duke. i have nothing to say but THEYRE SO CUTE??? it should be illegal for characters to be this damn lovable... their dynamic is so sweet, lives up to the name so well. idc much about stuff like this but their size difference is also so damn cute. with the plot picking up, this is a must read for bl fantasy lovers!! peak romance!!

a chance encounter with the ml leads to the mc being a ghost magnet. this story is so good, i love the main characters so much. their development was so satisfying and their resulting dynamic by the end was so sweet and u could genuinely tell how much they loved each other. the worldbuilding is fantastic. to the people who enjoy plot-heavy stories w/ tragic backstories, beautiful art, a unique cast, and fresh takes on common concepts: this is for u!

! self harm? kinda? (not mcs)
finally adding to my list. highschool romance that starts because of the mc's brother's hospitalization. all the characters in this story are so fantastic. the way people are linked to each other, the way our mains grow close and come to love each other despite their start... so plainly lovely. and this story also has a side couple that i not only care about but want to see more of, which is so rare?? so well written <3

What can a LIST do?

I just read guiding hazard that you recommended (never heard of it before and the cover art isn’t that compelling either ) your review made me read it and I could kiss you (with consent of course). It’s brilliant and I’m so glad to have read it. Thank you thank you thank you
