Recs if you like Souls in Ruin (Soulbound #1)...

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!

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

There’s just something about a love interest washing or braiding someone's hair that gets me every single time 🥹

whether for their partners pleasure or because they like the way it looks, have a metal detector handy.

Two nobles arranged in marriage, magical worlds, fragile political alliances, kingdoms at stake... what could go wrong?

Some marriages will flourish, some are simply convenient, and some won't end happily ever after ❤️‍🔥

Books where the main character is going through it, (or has gone through it), and dammit they’re dealing with it as best they can. Romantasy, SFR mainly! But a few memoirs and litfic too. ❤️‍🩹 Always open to more suggestions ❤️‍🩹

*Check the TW/CW as some of these books are dark romances. If I’ve left a review, I will usually leave a comment w the info

This is your warning label.

The Spice Level: Unhinged list is reserved for stories that don’t just cross the line—they erase it entirely. These are the books where tension burns slow and then explodes, where magic and darkness collide with obsession, and where love is anything but safe. Expect morally gray to black (or outright dangerous) characters, power dynamics that bite, and relationships that blur the line between devotion and destruction.

Per r/fantasyromance these fantasies will alter you

I've been lucky enough to discover multiple indie authors over the last years (sometimes as an ARC reader), and I really want them TO BLOW UP so their amazing work is recognized 🥹 & so that I have more people to yap with 👹❤️‍🔥 (Please note only the first of the series is added & some authors might now be trad) •——•—•——•—•——•—•——• if you have any book recs please drop them in the comments as I'd love to add more to the list 🥹 thank youuuu •——•—•——•—•——•—•——•

"Woman has suffered for eons and that has given her infinite patience and infinite perseverance" If you love dark fantasy with FMCs who refuse to give up in the face of pain and the worst enemies the world has to throw at them, this list is for you;)

Some are milder, some are darker, but all are unapologetically hot & depraved. From dark romcoms to traumantasy, by way of erotic horror & more, these books definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea. (only first of a series - except for interconnected standalones) ‼️ Please make sure to check you trigger warnings & proceed with caution, your wellbeing should always come first 🖤 •——•—•——•—•——•—•——• if you have any book recs please drop them in the comments 🥹 thank youuuu •——•—•——•—•——•—•——•

At least one book by each author attending the event!!!

Romance, fantasy, & dystopian books with strong fmc’s. Original plots and twists you don’t see coming. With a heavy dose of tension and hate
