Recs if you like Hunt the Stars...

A list of well-rated sci-fi and fantasy books featuring a woman who's 30 or older as the main character. I'm open to recommendations - I'd love this list to be long

A collection of adult fantasy romance with mature main characters. This list includes both standalones and the first book in series. Let me know if you have any recs!!

I've been reading genre romance for going-on-30 years now and I wanted to highlight some of the books that I've enjoyedbut that have either faded into obscurity or never made it big to begin with. Be Aware! Some of these books are going to be pretty dated! Please check the original publishing dates so you know what you're getting into. I'm also happy to provide any CWs/TWs/heat levels for any book listed if you ask in the comments! (Note: I've also included some romantic fantasy/scifi in this list.)

If a bond so strong you can hear each other's thoughts is your vibe and being able to whisper sweet nothings with only your mind is a love language you wish you could have, welcome home. Featuring mind links, mate bonds with featured telepathy and/or couples with zero mental privacy. *disclaimer I have not read all these books yet but I do love me some mind melding so wanted to share with my fellow boundlings! If you know of any we should add let me know!

Sci-fi romance books

Dropout TV gives us A Starstruck Odyssey inspired by the comic based off the stage play set on a spaceship called The Worst venturing across planets to save a moon! From droids to slugs this season has it all! This may be one of the best seasons of Dimension 20 with the ridiculous humor and classic Intrepid Heroes heart.

One of my favorite romance sub genres! Think Star Wars but with more kissing.

Some of the leads are aliens, most of them are human. I also love an immersive sci-fi universe so you’ll see that in these reads.

Open to recommendations!

From found family vibes between a ragtag crew to (yes) fucking big blue alien creatures, these are the stories a book lover who grew up obsessed with Star Wars yearns for

Books that can be read on archive.org for free that look interesting - go and search up your tbr, this is only what I want to read so in no way a comprehensive list ☺️🌸 If you see this list after clicking on a book, you’ll know it’s available on archive.org Disclaimer: Some books are so hard to get tho because they are constantly borrowed
