Yume Touka End Roll

Complete | jaryuu dokuro | 2012 released

Wtf, apparently I read this but have no memory of it. I properly tagged it, but didn't leave a review. Strange. Anyway, the first story is interesting and...kinda creepy. Maybe not even "kinda." There's an implication near the end there that this may not be the end of it. It's nice to think that they can move past that and love each other forever, but...feels more likely that this is gonna end in a murder-suicide. I dunno, it's yaoiland, so I'm sure it'll be fine. I guess we should just be happy he didn't rape him because he loves him so much. I have to re-read the other stories, because I don't remember them either, but... it's not bad what I've read so far.

Calling (OOTSUKI Miu)

Complete | ootsuki miu | 2009 released

Would have been five stars if not for the excessive saliva that made it hard for me to look at the otherwise amazing kissing scenes. This is a really sweet story, and I'm particularly fond of the fact that the author didn't take it to that "rape out of love" place, despite there being a moment that opened itself for that. I also like that both of them really love each other, and it isn't just the pursuer going after the reluctant/straight uke.

Good morning, bad day

Complete | YAMASHITA Tomoko | 2012 released

I don't mind non-con when it's treated as the horrible act it is, but the fact that it's easily forgiven always disgusts me. Otherwise, this would have been a rather sweet, if not a bit odd, collection of stories. The rape is only in the fourth story, though, for those trying to avoid that.

Kitto Kiss O Suru Toki

Complete | kanda neko | 2015 released

This is very cute and sweet so far. I also really love that the brothers are so close, and there's no incest involved. Especially after it was revealed that they aren't blood relation. It's just nice to see platonic love between boys among the sexual. Yaoi-land tends to list romantic love above all other love, so I enjoy seeing it deviate from that.

Shounen Ebisen

Complete | CJ Michalski | 2004 released

Kind of weird, very short, but admittedly cute. I'm not a huge fan of shota in the "this is totally normal and not an act of violence" sense, but I don't mind this one. Somehow the shota-food thing works for me. I'm a freak.

Eerie Queerie

Complete | Shiozu Shuri | 1999 released

Been ages since I read this, but I still own it. I loved it at the time, probably still would.

Tsumasaki Kara Aisarete

Complete | matsumoto noda | 2015 released

I like the art, and I'm eager to see how this unfolds! His actions from the start worked for me because he was wasted and half out of his mind. I feel like yaoi characters do similar things while sober half the time, so this was an improvement in my mind. Cute guys, hoping for an update soon.

Itsuka Koi Ga Kanau Made

Complete | cj michalski | 2006 released

Flawed and a bit silly in places, but still an enjoyable read. It might have benefited from being multiple volumes that allowed more character development, etc. But hey, everyone was hot, so I'm happy.
