In Search of Booty
Look, we all need some pirate romances in our lives sometimes. Here’s a list of romances where at least one character sails the high seas. As always, open to recs.






Polyesque Vibes
Books of the polyamorous sort. Haven't read all of them so I could be wrong on some. Some of these are set in non-monogamous cultures even if the protagonists themselves are not engaging in romance or polyamory.
Big thanks to AthenatheStorier who often finds and recommends these books through instagram or tiktok videos!
Also if you're a lover of polyamorous stories of any kind/medium, let me know. I want to co-write a collaborative analysis of polyamorous stories and you could help!
