BL 5 financial gap

9/10
This is really good. It's full of drama and the seme acts like a jerk most of the time. He's hot and then cold again, totally toxic. The uke is strong-willed but so eager to be loved back that he lets himself get hurt. It has a happy ending tho.

MARRIAGE, NOBILITY, TOXIC SEME
A retired tennis player (uke) lives as a free agent in Spain. One day a duke (seme), his first love, offers him marry him for money bc the seme needs to get married in 3 moths in order to inherit the dukedom

6/10
It's fast-paced and the ending is dragged out so it gets a bit boring later on. Some things are left unexplained too. The characters are alright, the uke is grumpy but cute and the seme is a popular player with an obsessive side.

UNIVERSITY, ENEMIES TO LOVERS
The uke starts encountering a junior (seme) who pushed him into a fountain again and again. The seme gets interested in him bc he shoes his hatred so openly and the seme was only "the popular guy" all his life bc of his family

9,5/10
The seme's a walking red flag. He treats the uke like trash, rapes him and blames him for his own desire just to become obsessive. The uke is strong, intelligent and fights for himself even though he's in love. I like it, it's full of emotion and drama.

OFFICE ROMANCE, TOXIC SEME
Yeon Woo (omega), the secretary of Keith Pittman (alpha), is in love with his boss. But Keith doesn't fuck men, sleeps around with women and he takes him for granted. Then they meet while he has his rut

10/10
It's such a beautiful story, a melodrama which managed to get me emotionally invested. The art is awesome and I love the couple's dynamic and how it shifts later on. Definitely a must-read.

ACTOR, CRIME, TOXIC RELATIONSHIP
Rookie actor Seo Yeon-Oh (uke) lives a pathetic life as a no-namer paying his dad's ever-increasing gambling debts. But one day, a CEO of a Big Company named Jae-Hyeok (seme) asks him to act as his lover ij exchange for a sponsorship. But he has a hidden motive.

9/10
This gem is beautifully told with a great character development. The uke is cute optimistic but mentally strong, I love him. The seme is cold at first but he has a good reason. Overall, the world building fascinates me.

ANIMAL TRAITS, HISTORICAL
An orphan from the rabbit tribe (uke) gets chosen to be the 'bride' of a distinguished wolf family against his will for the welfare of the tribe. He tries to stay positive, but his new fiancee (seme) is overly cold and treats him badly.

3/10
When I first read this I liked the nostalgia but rereading this it's too fast paced and unrealistic. Trying to rush into a "deep romance" makes it corny and the characters are childish and pathetic. It resembles harlequins.

ROYALTY, TOXIC SEME
1) A duke (seme) makes a bet whether he can make a travel agency owner (uke) say "I love u"
2) prince (uke) x duke (seme)
3) price (uke) takes his sister's place to marry a king (seme)
4) office worker (uke) x company heir (seme)

8/10
This has a familiar setup with a rich seme and a naive and cute uke. It's poetic, the seme's push and pull tactics, the uke falling for him even while knowing that he's being played with draw u in. The seme is an aloof, broken gentleman. Sadly, this isn't truly completed here.

EDITOR, AUTHOR
A rookie editor takes on the task of obtaining the manuscripts of a famous mystery writer (seme) who can see sounds as colours. How far will the uke go to win against the other editors?

8/10
It's the perfect example of "opposites attract". They both have family problems. The uke's a masochist, very loving and cute and the seme is cold and violent struggeling to express his feelings. They help each other bc they're so different.

MASOCHIST, DRAMA
The son of a famous musician (uke) has a secret BDSM kink that he struggles to comes to terms with. When he chances upon Masaki (seme), a man who meets people with his fists, will he finally be able to understand his desires?

7,5/10
The art's top-notch and overall it's interesting. The smut's hot and I like the strong-willed uke. The seme is too composed, he only gets emotional when it concerns the uke and he's pretty cold sometimes. There's some drama

ROYALTY, ARRANGED MARRIAGE
A college student (uke) one day gets a letter telling him to come to a foreign land and marry their king like his grandpa promised. He goes intending to refuse but the king (seme) won't let him go and promises to make him fall for him.

7/10
It's really interesting but way too short, I want more. Their dynamic is good, the seme's crazyly obsessed and the uke's cool-headed and strong. More than love their relationship resembles mutual entertainment.

ASSASSIN, OBSESSIVE SEME
A rich man (seme) who's so tired of his dull life that he starts thinking about death meets a suspicious waiter (uke) at a club him and his friends frequent. Finally, he finds something that makes his heart race.
