lit fic ft love/yearning/desire
genre is fake anyways but for the sake of clarity, basically non-romance-genre (tho i do adore it too!) literary fiction with tender, interesting love stories and/or well-written sex and yearning, NOT necessarily any happy ending, however.
“You love a vibe… even if the vibe is despair.”
Because my friend said this after reading one of my recs. Literary fic with more ✨vibes✨ than plot or when the book’s vibe feels like the main character
