Recs if you like You, with a View...

Fueled by arguments, eye-rolls, and "I can't stand you" energy. You know how this ends...

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!

General enemies to lovers romance books (I tried to stay away from romantasy) For the 2026 Bingo 🩷

I hope this doesn’t find you by Ann Liang introduced me to the rivals to lovers trope so these are the books I found while desperately trying to fill the hole in my heart! (Some of these books contain spice and some of them don’t, so make sure you check whether they do or don’t according to your preference)

Romance books featuring meaningful mental health and neurodivergent representation, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and more. Because every kind of mind deserves butterflies and a happily ever after.

Book in hand, toes in sand.

Perfect summer reads

Here are some romances that make you swoon & giggle.

Basically my summer TBR

books that discuss loss or losing a loved one

non-lit fic books that made my heart ache from how they perfectly captured some specific aspect of the grieving process in a way that deeply resonated w me (w/out being too depressing to cause actual emotional damage, hence the lack of lit fic)

Romance books with a road trip.

Great reads for the beach, lakeside, poolside, or a picnic in the shade. Summer vacation, summer fun, summer vibes.

romance and romcoms set in/on vacation, or vacation adjacent. Some books include basic travel, road trips, honeymoons, where the vacation is the whole point. Other stories don’t have the vacation as the main component of the story, but it is included nonetheless. Also included some titles where only one main character is traveling and the other is a local.
