Recs if you like The Shabti...

Books that have significant cats, because what bookworm doesn't enjoy cats? (For series I have only included book 1.)

I'm big into the theme of stories having archaeological plots. Even if the story isn't fully centered on archaeology--if it has a hint of it or similar fields of study--I'm in love. These stories might not have the same feel as "the Mummy" or "Indiana Jones", but they will have a hint of archaeological-adjacent themes smattered within at least.

Get used to it. A list of queer historical romances. Some are also fantasy.

A depressingly short list of old man yaoi. Both characters need to be 40+, or at least darn close to 40 - not just one old man x one younger man age gap romance (not that I don't love that too, but it's not old man yaoi imho). No, 40+ isn't "old" by any objective measure, but even finding stories like that is hard, if we make it actual old man yaoi, it'll be even harder.

Disabled perspectives and protagonists in fiction, across genres.

This list includes intrigue paired with heart fluttering romantic tension.
