Recs if you like When in Rome...

This handpicked list brings back the heart-fluttering nostalgia of early-2000s rom-coms-think flirty banter, iconic soundtracks, and heroines with way too much emotional labor but perfect hair. Whether you're nursing a breakup, dodging one, or just craving a little lighthearted love, these movies will deliver serotonin, drama, and maybe even hope. You want that "why don't guys do grand gestures anymore?" energy? This list's got you.

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

can I get some hands? yes, please, chef 😈

do you have a crush on Alton Brown on Cutthroat Kitchen or Ayo Edebri on The Bear? maybe you just really love making food or eating a really good meal? do you make sure to lick your plate clean and finish your meal? then this is the list for you!

hopefully the chefs in these books make your mouth water 🤤

to quote Hudson Williams: munch munch munch yum yum yum

Romance books which just make you feel good while reading them. They have a happy end and good vibes overall. Maybe you enjoy reading them during the summer or when you need a little something to take your mind of things. They don't have very dark topic, though they don't have to be without a little conflict to keep you entertained. Feel free to comment so I can add more recommendations!

Tongue in cheek list inspired by the book titled above, here is a list of all the romance books I have read with my IRL book club!

Having a space that embraces the love story and all tropes/themes/sub genres has been so wonderful and is what got me back into my reading journey, so I hope this does that for you!
Books range from YA to 4️⃣🌶️

This is a judgement free zone and some of these books weren't my personal fave but they could be yours 🤗

2 new books are added each month

the perfect books for curling up in bed with your comfort food and reading the entire day

i hope that you absolutely CONQUER this list and have fun while doing so☺️

Clean and closed door romance

The book girlies are seeing their favourite characters on screen this year so if you didn’t know or want to be ahead of the game and prep, this list is here. This list includes tv adaptations and movies so if you’re curious make sure to see if it’s streaming or theatre release.

P.s. I’m including books whose adaptations already came out this year so far

clean or closed door romances that will have you giggling and kicking your feet

Closed-door/no spice romance books with ALL.THE.FEELS.

Characters in novels traveling our world, either via road trip, flights, tours, what have you, that will make you want to travel.

Whether you're out looking for a new book boyfriend (😉) or wanting something that will make you squeal-kick-giggle (yes, in that order), here's the perfect list for you! And all clean!!! (And by clean I mean fade-to-black/no explicit scenes)

A list for all of the unique occupations I didn't realize were hot until now 🥵 For example, Hot Farmboy, Hot Baker, Hot Upholsterer. Let me know any book recs & their job titles in the comments 💬 Has anyone read a Hot Zamboni driver? I definitely had a vision when I visited the ice rink in Central Park lol

Please leave reccs

There’s just something about small town romances — the charm, the cozy streets, the way everyone knows everyone. They’re warm, nosy, and full of little traditions that make you wish you could move there yourself. Pro tip: pair your reading with some ASMR (rain sounds, café chatter, crackling fireplaces) and it instantly doubles the coziness

Perfect summer reads
