destiny, fate, love across barriers. a bodyswap between an actor and a normal guy spirals into a very moving love story. i enjoyed this way more than i thought i would. this story has one of the best endings i have seen for a long time and is interesting all the way through & even though it is not a very long read, it still felt very complete in a way manhwas rarely do. an amazing read full of drama, humor, good art, and likable main characters!

a hilarious story about a broke college student and how he mistakes another broke kid for a robber and then they somehow end up living together. the story was so well-paced and the art is sooo cute, i love the style! a fun supporting cast and good tropes done well like cohabitation, whipped seme, mysterious past makes this such a fun read that i cannot recommend enough. i could not put it down once i started!

a rebellious and half-delinquent student is forced into school duties with the cool and collected student council vice president. slow burn, enemies to lovers, dumbassxsmartass, & so much more! such an amazingly fulfilling tale of highschool romance, so soft and so easy to read. there is def room for improvement but this story feels so complete, the characters so real, and it is very sad to see them go. such a beauty of a story!

i hesitated to add this one to this list for so long because it isn't really a "bl". one of the best stories ive read EVER. the romance is a subplot, the main story is all about grief, love, moving on, letting go... it paints a beautifully tragic picture of these three boys and it is just such a gorgeous story. cried my eyes out reading it, had a lot of epiphanies about what it means to mourn and love someone and came out a changed person at the end

the unluckiest highschooler meets the luckiest highschooler. i would actually describe this as pre-slash instead of a complete bl. in another life, this would be longer and i would rank it as 10 [╥o╥] but trust me when i say it is amazing either way. if you don't like slow burns or more development-focused stories, you might want to skip this one. if you like angst and pure love then read it!!!
