Recs if you like Found by the Lake Monster...

Featuring wildly talented authors who couldn’t stop at writing the book and had to paint the cover too. Honestly unfair, but extremely good for our bookshelves.

Bitches be hoarding talent.

for those of us who watched beauty and the beast and saw the beast fight off those wolves and said “please sir may I have some more” this is your more. requirements: at least one isn’t a human open to suggestions!!

for those of us who like eggs a little more than others 🤭 oviposition is the act or process of laying eggs. where are the eggs being laid? anywhere your heart may desire (or anywhere the author chooses tbh) i haven’t read all of these but a girl has to start somewhere! as always recs are welcome (and needed… who knew it would be so hard to find this in books 🤧🤧)

Romance or erotica reads that feature monsters of all varieties. These will be reads under 200 pages. Sometimes you just need a quickie! Novellas and short stories from a wide range of sub genres with diverse characters and styles. Recommendations welcome!

A collection of Monster Romance novels for anyone who wants to broaden their romantic horizons. This list is LGBTQ+ 🌈 inclusive and includes varying levels of open-door spice 🌶

Please feel free to suggest additions! Im always looking to find new MR authors ✨️

Monster and cryptic romance, with some aliens sprinkled in.

It’s what it says on the tin: romance & erotica with cryptid action. We’ve got Mothman, Krampus, Bigfoot and even folktale creatures like selkies, rusalkas, and so much more.

Open to recs (especially with lesser known cryptids—i’m looking at you Fresno Nightcrawler)!

“Ma'am, this clearly states you are only authorized to ride an Orc. You were going 90 in a 45 on a Minotaur.”

I fear your sheer determination to get your rocks off

This list will be ongoing
