Thanks so much for adding the BL to the regular rotation. It’s been so interesting and useful to see! One thing – Is “Millennium Prime Minister” one of those borderline titles that you made a call on? If not, I’m pretty sure it’s not BL. There is a BL title called “Millennium Darling”.

actually, I think I had it confused with “The Prime Minister’s Secret Diplomacy”.
You’re correct, Millennium Prime Minister is a shoujo title — It’s going to be a while before I get all these straightened out.
[um. no pun intended]
