Recs if you like The Book of Azrael...

The SCP is an organization that Secures, Contains, and Protects our world against anomalous objects, entities, and phenomena. Be advised: these books contain such SCPs that have escaped confinement and have caused havoc and destruction. Read at your own peril. And remember to document your findings.

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

When the love story and the world building go hand in claw. For series, only the first book is listed.

This is a list for those of you that love dark fantasy (dying gods, monsters in the woods, that kind of thing), but you also have a soft side for softies. These books still have that grim atmosphere, but they also have characters who are green flags. Someone who asks permission, protects without smothering, or just does the right thing when no one else will.

a list of fantasy book recs free of problematic authors so you can discover without any stress of promoting them!

As a tall-ish girl myself, every time I come across an FMC who is described as tiny, I yearn a bit more for some tall FMC representation — we can be love interests too! 🥹😍 So I made this list of (mostly romance and fantasy) books with a tall FMC. Whether she is taller than her partner, or they are somehow EVEN TALLER than her, all is welcome here 🫶

I haven’t read every single book on this list, so please correct me if I am wrong somewhere. More book recs super appreciated!!! 🤍

Romantasy books to read to escape reality that AREN’T ACOTAR and Fourth Wing.

Get on the hype train for these upcoming releases of books in a series. Now is the perfect time to jump on board a new series or start a re-read.

Covers the next 12 months. Updates once a month - please send recs

Change to list view and sort by author for easier browsing.

I will list the first book in the series and the upcoming book. I'm not including series from romances where it's hard to tell if the books are standalone or not (for my health🙃).

(I'm already questioning my sanity on how I'm going to maintain this, I wish we could make collaborative lists on here 😭)

inspired by a post about how tall Dr. Carlsen (The Love Hypothesis) is, here’s a list of canonically tall characters, some may not be human😈

as always, taking any & all suggestions!

Fantasy books written by Black, Indigenous, Asian, Latine, and other POC authors

Romantasy books my favorite Toks are reading...both mainstream and indie

Give me more badass FMCs who don’t wait for someone else to save the day!! Quick with a blade, quicker with a comeback, these bad b*tches take on monsters, villains, and terrible life choices with equal ferocity. If you’re looking for women who break rules, break hearts, and occasionally break a few bones, this is the ultimate list for you.

Need dark fantasy recs? 🖤

Vampires that bite. Dragons that burn. Fae that lie. Mates that ruin you.

Curses that cling. Magic that corrupts.

Enemies who want your throat—and your heart.

If you like your fantasy dark, deadly, and delicious…
You’re in the right place 🫶🏻

** Only the first book in the series will be listed **

Books that either filtered to me directly from or have strong associations with booktok. A lot of dark romance, a lot of smut, some things I would (lovingly) consider "trashy".
