I am itching to finish Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation and Heaven Official's Blessing by MXTX (and, sure, I have several "literary" books I want to get through as well, but let's talk about how much I love MXTX).
MXTX is a huge inspiration to me. Her approach to humor, drama, action, and political world building really appeal to my sensibilities, to say nothing of her romances. In all honesty, I grew up reading more "Boys Love adjacent" works than actual BL (i.e. Saiyuki, Get Backers, and generally things that were nominally shounen or josei...but also just...homoerotic?), and MXTX's stuff is the first outright BL/danmei that really caught me. I really do read it as much for the plot as the sexiness!
