Fortunately, there's a great source of solicited doujinshi reviews: the Japanese doujinshi anthology monthly Comic Box Jr.! In each issue, the magazine's staff ranks several dozen doujinshi on the Comic Box Jr. scale:
For a handy reference, I'm compiling the Comic Box Jr. rankings in the charts below, with the first chart in alphabetical order by doujinshi title and the second chart in alphabetical order by circle name. (Each has also been divided into eight alphabetical chunks: A-C, D-F, G-I, J-L, M-O, P-R, S-U, and V-Z.)
A couple of notes: The chart's "Type" column includes notations made in the description (there may be some minor inconsistencies in terms). If a doujinshi is predominantly a text story, it's designated as a novel in the "Type" column. The notation "nr" in any column means "not reported." Finally, the chart lists the volume, month and year of the Comic Box Jr. issue the ranking (and illustrations from each ranked doujinshi) appeared in, in case you're able to get a look at that issue.
After some thought, I've taken the liberty of alphabetizing titles or circle names that have a first word spelled phoenetically in katakana by the spelling of the non-Japanese word it represents; for instance, アイアンブーツ (Aianbuutsu) is the phoenetic spelling of "Iron Boots," and so is alphabetized by "Iron," not "Aian."
This is an epic undertaking that's sure to take a while to complete, so be sure to check back often! Hope this will be useful!
