Romance, Genre Fiction, or Literary Fiction novels for Childfree folks where its explicit that a main character is Childfree (and they aren't teenagers) and starting a family/having kids is not mentioned as a goal. For those of us who don't always want to read about a happy ending involving kiddos (even thought we love them!). Please feel free to add suggestions 😊

For the men in the slutty little glasses- you know the ones. And are so pathetically down bad it’s sweet.

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 🤗

You know what this is

Women are unrepresented in STEM. Based on the numbers from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, women account for only 29.3% of STEM federal workers.

This is a small, very niche, list of romance novels that feature women in male dominated fields! Please share any other romance novels featuring women in a STEM field, I would be honored to add them to the list!

All Ali Hazelwood novels in once place, because lets be honest - we'd read her shopping list if she gave it to us.

where each narrator voices their own character(s) throughout the entire book, not just when it’s ‘their’ chapter

If the male character takes the time to cook or feed her, I WILL BE ON MY KNEES! That is the kind of care and thoughtfulness that I just eat up. It's not necessarily golden retriever energy. It's proactive and nuturing. Pls pls pls drop recs in the comments.

Another icon. Must read everything she writes ALWAYS

sometimes u just gotta read some p0rn with plot amirite

This list is full of women who solve problems, break rules, run experiments, ask inconvenient questions, and generally refuse to stay in the lanes they were assigned. Fiction and non-fiction, from romance to history. Welcome to the nerdy, brilliant chaos.

Spicy romance books with cute, illustrated covers that don't look nearly as spicy as they are 🌸

This list is based on the covers featured here, so it may be a little biased. Recommendations are welcome!💌

NB: Includes different spice levels and some LGBTQ+ romances❤️‍🔥

Fiction books about women who are smart, capable and really into science.

Books where the story is brought to another level by the character work, be it in the complex character building or the multi layered character arc. The writer made the characters like facets, every angle and every relation gives them yet another aspect to further deepen the dynamic between characters. Every bit of past revealed shows us the way they became who they are now. Leaving us with characters arcs that feel like an entire story on their own, and often impacts the romance.
