Recs if you like Wench...

Romance books to read for the aesthetic (usually cartoon covers because I’m trash for character art)

Just a list of books coming out in 2026 that I’m really excited for :) it will be updated as the months go by! It will be a mix of: high fantasy, romance fantasy, sci-fi, gothic, horror, lit fic, historical fiction, retellings, poetry, romance, & more!!

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

not food related, not the prettiest covers ever (though some of them definitely are), just book covers I want to eat 👅

Wanting to read something new in fantasy or romance that isn’t going to make you wait around in agony for a sequel? I’ve got you.

Standalone books worth a read or repeat!

Retellings of and tales inspired by Robin Hood. First in a series or standalones. Please drop additions if you have them!

The books that I saw being recommended instead of ACOTAR so I want to give them a go

Retellings of classics and fairytales

based on my love for Fall
