  1. I’ve read a lot of these, and they’re all great representations of the genre. You’ve also given me a new view on a few of passed up previously, so you have my thanks.. of these I think Girl Friends is one of the very best GL manga I’ve read.
    In saying that my favorite would have to be This love that won’t reach… so much raw emotion, a truly unique and beautiful story…. I highly recommend it ♡

  2. I have personally read all of those and I have to recommend Can’t defy lonely Girl over the rest! But if you want one that is not on the list, check out “The Universe’s Most Jealous Goddess”. Won’t disappoint and has gorgeous art!
