I have a special place in my heart for this story. It's a beautiful yet melancholy story of first time love and first time sex between two classmates; one has had trauma issues and wants to feel what it would be like to have sex as a woman and the other is self-discovering himself through a fellow female classmate he kissed and said "Gross." Their connection is fascinating and innocent while the passion between them grows. Mishaps, sensitive boys and a happy conclusion.
Beautiful, beautiful story of two guys with yakuza ties. I have rarely loved a romance like I love this. A very masculine romance. Takes the song "Mona Lisa" (Nat King Cole, 1950) to new and unique heights. Here's a link to the song. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NIDX18Xl16s
Beautiful story. From the description : Yutaka, who is not very good at eating together with people, met a pair of brothers one day in the park. This is the story of how lives changes and feelings unravelled when three people begin eating their meals together.
A free spirited stylist x long term businessman partner have ups and downs that lead them to an awesome moment.
A sweet story of two friends who are plagued by rumors that they are dating. After one is asked to date a girl, the other snaps and kisses his friend. Soon, the rumors become truths.
Smitten Chiaki and tsundere Kazuma are a long-term gay couple. Tomoe, their childhood friend, asks to see them, but when they meet they discover she's hugely pregnant! The father is unknown, and although Chiaki and Kazuma are exasperated with the unconcerned Tomoe, they help her out. Before they know it, the baby is born. The two men are relieved that Tomoe is acting like a proper mother, but one day, Tomoe comes to them with tears in her eyes and says, ''Take care of her. "
The beginning of Chiaki & co!
One snaggletoothed tsundere cutie who is one of my favorite yaoi fellas. And the other is a fine, fine looking man.
From the description After Hirokawa Hozumi was saved by Odajima Yamato, whom he then fell in love with, and changed schools to chase after him. But because Yamato's childhood friend Misaki is always by his side, Hozumi becomes frustrated. Every day he bullies Misaki until Yamato has had enough.
Okay, for the record this is NOT a happy place, but I love this with every fiber of my being. The story is this: there are men in here with flower tattoos, connected by yakuza ties. Interconnected stories that are grim, bleak, gruff and melancholy. NOT LIGHT READING. Industrial box of tissues and a new heart and soul required. Go read something light or funny afterwards. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Aniya Yuiji is my go to for awesome lately.
A romance made in introvert heaven, lol! Usagi, a seriously shy introverted shut-in who hides in a large bunny head catches the fascination of the delivery guy who brings Usagi his packages and eventually Usagi himself out.

Omygod I rediscovered so.many beautiful ones I read before but forgot about. So many unheard gems too. Man how did ya find them?!
I'm an insatiable reader. I voraciously read and I read what interests me. I know, sounds lame, lol! I try to look for intelligence and substance over smut, am so very deeply in love with psychological stories and dark stories. Not always the darker the better, but something that keeps me thinking about the story long afterwards and how it affects me emotionally.
Thank you for what you have said. You really made my day.
And also, I am a writer. It keeps me from becoming complacent. I thrive on challenges.
