"He is literally just a guy. Hit him with your car."

AKA, a selection of "book boyfriends" that actually suck. Featuring red flags ranging from an emotionally unavailable Irish lad to a man who locks up his wife in an attic.

Recommendations welcome. No judgment if you enjoy these books; this list was inspired by my own obsession with Heathcliff, toxic lover extraordinaire, as a teen.

diamonds? never heard of her. these books feature all things hand(s) on neck romance—choking, breath play, asserting dominance—all in the name of pleasure !

your neck 🤝 their hand(s)

romance books with reflective surface scenes where they watch themselves or each other 👀

PSA: the “dirty” in the title is not intended to have a negative connotation, but instead be a play on words; this is a safe space 🫂

these books include back-door related action (think plugs, DP, regular anal, rimming, eating out, dildos, some w/ somnophilia). includes MF / MM / RH / MMF

perhaps the gr(ass) really is greener on the other side 🥵

Fiction reads that include Somnophillia or its lesser known cousin Parasomnia.

Somnophillia: in which an individual becomes sexually aroused by someone who is asleep or unconscious.

Parasomnia: disruptive behaviors or events that affect your sleep. You might walk, talk or make physical movements to act out a dream or sleep sexing.

Check for content warnings by book. There is a large variety of books and situations involved.

Recommendations always welcome.
