Recs if you like Red Queen...

Disclaimer: I don't wish to bring hate to any authors, I deeply believe in democracy. However I think it's important for people who hold themselves accountable for their reading choices to have access to the information about authors/books they give their time and money to. These are authors who have publicly supported Israel or middle road. If you notice someone who may have changed their stance recently or supported Palestine and are here wrongfully please do correct me

in progress - taking suggestions

Basically, a huge list of every book I ever heard features sapphic characters.

I have not read all of these, so I cannot be sure of the amount of the time on page of the sapphic characters or of the quality of the books.

Some of these I do not plan to read at all, since they are not my style. If you feel like a book doesn't belong here, let me know.

For my favs / read, check out my other lists & shelves.

Don't shoot the messenger.

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!

A list of books that share more specific titles with kpop songs. Kpop songs named after books count. See comments for kpop song and book title match-ups. Always open to suggestions!

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!

Eclectic choices of stories to forget life sucks.

I think Pagebound quests should be enjoyed at your own pace, reading whatever piques your interest. That being said, here's a list of books that are included in multiple quests. This list is a work in progress and suggestions are welcome :)

A woman's place is in the revolution. Featuring magical/gifted women who disobey the powers that be and rage against the machine.

Dystopian matchmaking: romance and love stories that happen against all odds

sorry, i spilled.

always accepting suggestions for books with ooey-gooey, drippy drops on the cover.

the staples of the book community on youtube in the early to mid 2010s.

The fate of the world rests on this teenage girl's shoulders. She isn't like the other girls—she was chosen by prophecy, fate, or narrative convenience to save a realm that absolutely refuses to handle its own problems.

When a power couple overthrows a tyrannical or broken government together.

Bonus points if they don't agree on the right way to do it but through falling in love with each other they learn to appreciate the other person's experiences and it helps them build something even better for their people when they combine ideas sobs

Open to recs !!

Morally grey or straight up baddies? Aiming to collect books written from a villainous/morally grey POV so suggestion appreciated.

Based on my favorite podcast Rereading the Revolution. The hosts reread and recap popular 2000s-2010s novels from Divergent to Looking for Alaska.

The list is in order of oldest episodes to most recent. I will try and update when new episodes drop.

So take a walk down memory lane with these nostalgic picks, or find something new that sparks your inner teenager! Please give the podcast a listen, I think they’re a great bookish podcast to support

I'm making these kind of lists to make you open your eyes and do your own research.

The list is never-ending so there will always be someone missing

"an imagined world or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic. many of the people lead dehumanized and fearful lives"

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.

mostly thrillers, all books i stayed up way too late to read. these aren’t necessarily literature, just books that hook.

These books defined my childhood and still hold up to this day. Dystopian stories have been so influential in my life and as I get older my perspective continues to shift and the book becomes more and more dynamic. Deeper themes are embedded in books for kids, and these ones sparked deeper reflections for me -- as well as just being fun! A bunch of these aren't typical "dystopian" books and they span across genres but they all evoke the same feeling for me. I will keep updating as I think of more! Also I literally begged my parents for a bow and arrow after I read the Hunger Games lolllll
