This collection celebrates love across the full spectrum of neurological diversity, including Autism, ADHD, OCD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Tourette's, Hoarding Disorder, PTSD, and more.

I hope this doesn’t find you by Ann Liang introduced me to the rivals to lovers trope so these are the books I found while desperately trying to fill the hole in my heart! (Some of these books contain spice and some of them don’t, so make sure you check whether they do or don’t according to your preference)

Books with disability rep or written by disabled authors. I love the growing appreciation for rep in books and these are the ones I've found so far. Some I've read some are on my tbr so if you have any recs to add, feel free, and if any are abelist or harmful in any way please let me know!

These romance novels have hot stairwell or staircase scenes. 😅 That’s it, that’s the description.
