Recs if you like Hello, Limerence...

...are unhinged, lonely, tortured, kooky, crazy, unmoored, yearning, plotting, stalking, monologuing, self-pitying, lost, etc.

Weird, mostly girlys going through different unique life adventures. Supporting girlies (the girls, theys and thems) rights and wrongs.  Regina George screaming down her hallway into her room hunting down the Burn Book

Lit fic books to read for the aesthetic

This collection is THE reason I haven’t cancelled BOTM; these books are criminally underrated & deserve more attention! Litfic lovers, these are for you.

The Offset is a collection from Book of the Month (BOTM) featuring “a series of books from indie and international voices for those who seek artistic expression over commercial appeal, elevated prose over action-packed plots, or the unconventional over the mainstream.”

Will be updated routinely.

All the 2026 BOTM monthly, add on, and Allurial titles

Essential Japanese novels and short fiction, past and present.

If you’ve ever made eye contact with a mirror and said “this is a mess” but also “i’m kinda iconic for this,” congrats, this list is for you.

All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.

when the cover is absolutely doing its job correctly

(gorgeous, funny, and uniquely fitting covers, all in one)

Books recommended by Dakota Johnson each month for her bookclub associated with her production company TeaTime Pictures!

In the bookclub IG channel her and her @teatime.pictures team also shared deep dives into the books and insights about them, often curated by the authors themselves ✨ From October 2026 the bookclub moved to Substack!

by dakota johnson

dive into the sea of nuanced, unconventional modern literature with these attractive covers! featuring flawed, unlikeable characters and disturbing, uncomfortable topics, these books will absolutely leave you in some serious rumination.. mainly litfic, but all genres are welcome!

the equivalent of when my sister says “maybe santa will bring it for christmas” to my niece

(all the books i picked up at the bookstore but couldn’t let myself buy)
