Recs if you like The Snow Child...

Chill-fueled journeys through frostbitten kingdoms, forbidden wards, and legends carved in ice. Perfect for readers craving grand myths wrapped in winter magic.

in honor of disability pride month, here is a series on the colours of the flag! our second colour on the disability pride flag is blue, which represents psychiatric disabilities and mental illnesses. numerous examples of those include bipolar disorder, depression, general anxiety disorder, PTSD, PMDD, selective mutism, dissociative identity disorder, and many more. books within this list series will be both fiction and non-fiction literature. as always, feel free to recommend any books!

books that feel like watching a studio ghibli film 🌱 ₊˚✧ ﾟ.

Books that have the same titles as unrelated movies or tv series.

all suggestions are welcome!

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!

Find these reads among the swirls of snow dust between dense evergreens trees, under the bright moonlight scattering across a frozen forest, and at the hearth of a warm cottage, providing shelter through a quiet blizzard. These are magical and often folklore-inspired stories for those long winter days.

— Characters on the cover (probably)

Books with covered faces (partial, mostly or fully!) of most/all of the characters on the cover!

recs are welcome! :)

some book recs that involve the complexities of motherhood: the tough and tender, chaotic and beautiful, exhausting and full of purpose.

Based on the HRCYED 3.0 prompt! Books with weather or natural disasters/phenomena on the cover (at least one version), including: rain, storms, lightning, clouds, snowfall, fog, sunshine, tornados, earthquakes, wildfires, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis.

Not an exhaustive list - feel free to suggest titles! I tried to keep it more focused on books that fit the prompt but would be harder to find (i.e. ones that don't have the key words in the title).

books so magical, you forget you're reading

(technically motherhood in speculative fiction unless i make a separate list for sci-fi!)

requesting recommendations!

stories where the voices & experiences of mothers are at the center

wintry, whimsical and cosy reads for the colder seasons ❆

Antarctica, Patagonia, Alaska, Canada, upper Great Lakes, somewhere in the mountains, wintertime, etc. (fiction and nonfiction)

This list contains 1 book from each of the 50 states (author or topic), Presidents & First Ladies, other American authors & works of note. The good, the bad, the ugly - a lot has happened in 250 years.

Stories that might make you cry (I mean, are you made of stone? No) and also feature a fox (or is from the POV of a dog because that one book made me howl). If you’re thinking Disney’s Hound & Fox, then yeah. That’s kinda the vibe here - we’re shedding tears but make it adorable👌🏼✨

Suggestions welcome! 🙏🏽😇

The following books take place during the winter and would be perfect to read by the fireplace this holiday season!

fairytale retellings for adults from the girl who grew up reading nothing else

All the books I can find that Shayne Topp has recommended!

I’m trying to live more in tune with the seasons this year, so here are some non-Christmasy book recs for December through February.
