Big Kids Club ๐ Older women in their 30s+
There's a lot to be said about your 20s, but life afterwards is just as sweet! Here is a list of books where the FMC is age 30+ so you can enjoy a little more maturity and a totally different POV on life. This one is dedicated to my fellow millennials ๐ซถ I'll update as I continue to read. Please share any suggestions you have for our friends in the comments.

Soft Male Leads
Some people like their male leads to be alpha chads. I'm not one of them. I like them soft. I like them anxious. I like them doing traditionally female jobs and roles and hobbies.
Mostly romance because that's what I read but other genres present.
Usually just adding the first volume in the series unless they are stand-alones or have distinctly different focus/MCs (most romance series).
