Recs if you like Poor Things...

Weird, gory, and or disturbing. We support women's wrongs here.

Books with neurodivergent MCs across various genres so you can find them in your favorite one.

Neurodivergent rep here includes autism, adhd, ocd or dyslexia. In addition the term neurodivergent also includes anyone who’s neurological processing works in a way that isn’t considered typical; such as various personality disorders, other sensory issues and depending on who you ask also depression, ptsd, and more. I’ve included all here when I find them.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

Books that remind me of Mulder and Scully and their wild x-file hunting days. Suggestions welcome. I’m forever chasing that high.

Books that exhibit key traits of, or helped develop, the Postmodern literary movement.

Not including criticism or theory.

Research trigger warnings before reading.

(Recommendations welcome)

horrors and thrillers for my wife

I love the Pagebound community but the one thing I don’t like about the app is how it incentives sticking to popular books more likely to have a decent amount of posts. (Granted some of this has to do with it being a little new) It’s my experience however that the hidden gems or even just less popular books are often just as if not more interesting as the best sellers.

So this is my list of books with 5 posts or less that I think deserve more love.

Books by Scottish authors, across genres. (Will not be including any JKR.) Dark crime, litfic, a bit of satire, fantasy, scifi & speculative fiction. Trying to include a mix of everything in here.

Recommendations welcome. 🫶

Fiction books that deal with human experimentation, its ethics, and its consequences.

Research trigger warnings before reading.

List is always under construction. Suggestions and discussions welcome.

Books perfect for curling up on the couch while leaves fall down like rain.

Books written by Scottish authors/set in Scotland

This list will showcase the vast amount of Scottish Literature available, from the late medieval period to the present day. Partly inspired by there only being a few Scottish books on the 'British Classics' quest. Alba gu bràth!

(This is not exhaustive! Just 100 or so books that vaguely trace the development of Scottish Literature.)

Works inspired by Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein: Or, The Modern Prometheus. The emojis reference Luigi Galvani’s galvanism experiments to make frog legs move in isolation which lead to the concept of “animal electricity” that inspired Shelly’s novel.

Are you obsessed with Frankenstein like me? Here's a bunch of books to read.
