Recs if you like Anne of Green Gables ...

a collection of autistic coded characters in fiction [ recommendations welcome! ]

For when things seem hopeless. We can always try again and again ❤️

This list is a community project, I asked in the club and received multiple suggestions which I then added onto a list: fiction and nonfiction, fantasy, contemporary, sci-fi, the main theme is just hope. Some people said their recommendation might not fit very well but I added it anyways.

Also, in the og post, I mentioned The Good Place and if people have recommendations tending to that, so some books are related to that.

For all the multitaskers on here (including myself): books featured on 2+ quests! Go get those badges everyone

Books that inspired or are similar to Studio Ghibli films

books featured in the cozy video game “tiny bookshop”

in honor of disability pride month, here is a series on the colours of the flag! the fourth colour on the flag is yellow/gold, which represents the disabilities on the neurodivergent spectrum, cognitive and intellectual disabilities. examples of these are ADHD, autism, tourettes, dyspraxia, dyslexia, OCD, down syndrome, epilepsy and way more. books within this list will be fiction and non-fiction. as always, feel free to recommend books which you feel should be added to this list.

Books recommended by musician Lucy Dacus, a solo artist and member of the band boygenius. Pulled from her goodreads list.

Canadian authors writing books set in Canada.

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that go past the July start date and match at least one of these title prompts: Periodic Table, Familial Terms, Rainbow of Words (also Joseph's coat), Numerical Titles, Titular Counting 5+, Pun in the Title, and First & Last Name in the Title. Recommendations welcome!

pink, sophisticated & sometimes fatale <3 curating the personality of my aspirations (added some essential nonfic & poetry!)

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

I asked a while ago for easy/comfy reads when I have a migraine, and @KittenInACave encouraged me to make it into a list as opposed to my own shelf. recs welcome!

These are books I am going to start reading before bed, because my regular selection of reading material just really riles me up. Inspired by two posts from the Substack Feeling! Magazine by Jenna O'Brien.

my ideal bedtime read because I will stay up until 3 am if I get too invested in or anxious/stressed about a plot

mermaids, fairies, and anything whimsy is such fun way to spend these warmer months

Inspired to create a list by a post from @mmyth, I thought it would be nice to have a list of quest books you can download and read for free via Internet Archive. Recommendations gladly accepted. Happy reading ya'll!

(Please note this will ONLY contain books found through Internet Archive and no other sources, I don't want to run into possible mistakes and copyright headaches.)

Update: This list will also include books you can borrow through Open Library, a part of Internet Archive. In addition, this will only show English-language availability.

This list includes books featuring neurodivergent “coded” characters that were either written before neurodivergence was understood or take place in fantasy worlds where it might not be described in the same way. Historical fiction also welcome!

This list is open for recommendations! Please focus on stories whose characters are not explicitly neurodivergent for one of the above reasons. Most of these books were recommended by readers on Pagebound, and thus I have not read them all.
