Book Attic

A little bit of dark romance doesn’t hurt to read. Leave a book in the comments you think I should add to the list.

This is basically my personal dark romance list, mostly books I’ve read and genuinely enjoyed, plus a few that are sitting on my TBR because I keep seeing them recommended everywhere. If you’re into morally grey characters, messy relationships, and stories that definitely cross the line a bit, you’ll probably find something here.

Just a heads up though: dark romance can get really heavy, so definitely keep an eye on trigger warnings before jumping in. Some of these books don’t hold back at all.

My heart, my coffee and my taste in romance, dark and bitter.

Dark romance books with stalking as a trope

As the title says, these are books I had never heard of until BookTok, and I’ve read them all. (If a book is on this list, that means I liked it.)
