Pro tomato or anti tomato? Follow the PB Tomato War lore with this unofficial side quest. Start with The Spellshop (& read Fantasy's post @ 41%) to see the war's origins and pick your side. Next, get the facts with Ten Tomatoes That Changed The World (notbillnye / pro camp's manifesto). Hate tomatoes? Read I Will Never Not Ever Eat a Tomato, and discover their true evil with Dead Witch Walking (virus spreads via GMO tomato). Finish with the feel-good Fried Green Tomatoes. Which side will prevail?

in progress - taking suggestions

Basically, a huge list of every book I ever heard features sapphic / lesbian characters.

I have not read all of these, so I cannot be sure of the amount of the time on page of the sapphic characters or of the quality of the books.

Some of these I do not plan to read at all, since they are not my style. If you feel like a book doesn't belong here, let me know.

For my favs / read, check out my other lists & shelves.

Don't shoot the messenger.

All the lesbians books I can find. If you have any book you want me to add please comment ❤️

In honor of our queen Dolly Parton's tragic passing, I present to you, a list that includes books she has shared she loved, books that give me Dolly vibes, books she herself has written and books about her... basically just a big ol' Dolly appreciation list. Recommendations welcome!! In the meantime, pour one out for an icon, you'll catch me watching Steel Magnolias and sobbing. Rest in power, Dolly.

a multigenre syllabus on the history, identity, and culture(s) of the american southeast - a region often known otherwise as simply “the south” or “the deep south,” consisting in part of “the bible belt” (most of it) and parts of appalachia.

We love books with a verbose title, and this list celebrates them! Suggestions welcome 🤗

The queer agenda has taken over your English lesson and the compulsory reading list to make you disgustingly educated and gay af 🏳️‍🌈

Based off having to study older books that have monumental impact 💥 Will keep updating the curriculum, CLASS IS IN SESSION 🔊

Books that include recipes from the stories

Exactly what it says on the tin

Stirring the pot. Adding some salt. And monching into a beautiful red tomatt. (Books with a tomato theme, in some way, shape or form…and books that have an opinion on Pagebound’s Tomato War)

books from all US states and territories. asking for recommendations! these books must a) be written by an author with a strong connection to the state or territory and b) take place largely in the state or territory. i want to try to prioritize, whenever possible, underrepresented voices / voices that america’s regime tries to silence.

please lmk if any of these authors or texts aren’t good representation.

i will comment a list with each state/territory + its associated book!

do you remember The Wiggles song “Fruit Salad”? or maybe “I Like to Eat Apples and Bananas”? what about any song from Veggietales like “The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything”?

this list is freshly harvested and full of books with (specifically) fruits and veggies in the title or on the cover 🌶️🥭🍒🍋🫑🥕🍓🍑🥝🫐🍇🥒

some are more appropriate than others 😈

as always, please feel free to suggest any books I missed!

sunny settings, or books that feel sunny and offer escapism from the winter blues in an eclectic blend of genres.

Editing to add: okay some of these books are SAD, my dudes, just like my seasonal affective disorder. But at the same time, they are soft and kind and a safe place for the big sad, if that makes sense?

if you can eats it, it goes on the list

Another collection of books saved from TikTok. We don't gatekeep so I compiled them all here.
