Okay, so in the sister guild, the Shoujo-Ai & Yuri Guild, there is a GL book list.
Well, I recently picked up a BL book and started reading it, and so I think we should also have a BL book list over in here!
In the SA/Yuri Guild, there are two seperate book lists--one for 'mature' readers, and one for young adult/teen readers. I'm going to combine both of them into the same post. Please, label what you post 'YA' or 'MA' (young adult or mature) in the teen fiction list.
Everything appropriate for teenagers or that can be found in the Teen Fiction/Young Adult section of your local bookstore should be labeled 'YA'.
On the other hand, books with any overly-objectionable content should be labeled 'MA'. The ratings are not for content other than explict parts. The comprehention level doesn't matter.
If you would like to add to this list, please just post the title, author, and (optional) brief summary (no spoilers, please), and your estimate of its rating, and I'll (or maybe a mod could) update this first post when I see that there's been a new post with a book suggestion!
If there is NOT an author slot for a certain book title, that's because it's by the same author as the title above it. I thought it would be easier to do that than to have to bother putting the author a billion times.
The ratings will now begin to be posted. Please, for all who posted books before, please add a rating to your books, so I can make sure that they match up to what I will put it as.
For the moment, I'll put a QUESTION MARK next to all unconfirmed ratings (for books posted by people who suggested them before I put the age group ratings up).
Thanks for your cooperation, and enjoy your BL Book List!
