I'll start this off by saying something probably controversial, but most harem stories are at most passable with a lot going into the downright bad territory. The way I see it the author throws in several girls (or guys) for the one character because it either shows how 'cool' they are or because they're trying to replace quality with quantity when it comes to the romantic aspect of a story. I'm not saying all stories that have harems in them are bad. No, I'm saying that they don't & probably shouldn't put much focus on them if they do include them unless a lot of planning is done. It doesn't help that harems tend to get tied together with a lot of other lazily put together tropes that need a lot more work than most people are willing to put into them to make them good.
That being said I'm hopeful their are some gems out there. Let me be clear I'm not looking for 'meh' stories I'm asking about stories that when you read them make you go wow those characters & the dynamics they have with each other are really interesting!
