Hii, everyone ♡ I am a very big fan of the booktuber @caricanread so I thought I would make a list of all the books she has read this year! ✰

mermaids, fairies, and anything whimsy is such fun way to spend these warmer months

Books with neurodivergent MCs across various genres so you can find them in your favorite one.

Neurodivergent rep here includes autism, adhd, ocd or dyslexia. In addition the term neurodivergent also includes anyone who’s neurological processing works in a way that isn’t considered typical; such as various personality disorders, other sensory issues and depending on who you ask also depression, ptsd, and more. I’ve included all here when I find them.

Some gems, some disasters... All selected for the cover. Contents may vary. Read at your own risk. ... *NB: There are different editions out there, but these are specifically the ones available here. ... Most of these I've seen in the book store. I've not read all of these but hopefully will one day. Recommendations are welcome.

Teacups rattle & spin when the main character is frustrated. There's sentient plants growing where they shouldn't be. The MC probably has a grouchy familiar. Each room looks like Howl's bedroom of trinkets. Fantasy for all ages that prioritizes my favorite element to read: whimsy✨ Suggestions welcome!

A list of all the books featured as monthly picks for the Fairyloot YA Sub. ◽️ Not Including sequels or special editions outside of the monthly sub.◽️ I will include new books about a month after release to avoid spoilers.

next up in the series is Ell Potter! they have a wide range, from litfic to romance to thrillers to cozy fantasy. named one of audible’s break out stars, Ell has a soothing voice and their cadence just scratches an itch in my brain in the best way. Like my last list, I’ve avoided Audible exclusives so everyone can access these titles through Libby, Hoopla, or Libro.fm.

anyone can spotlight any narrator they want at any time! 🫶

as always, please drop your suggestions below!

there is something about the sub-genre of (typically young adult) whimsical fantasy that i cannot live without. the fanciful ways to play with fantastic elements and a sweeping romance, unmatched!

Wanting to read something new in fantasy or romance that isn’t going to make you wait around in agony for a sequel? I’ve got you.

I think the title makes it clear? It could be retelling of Swan Lake, or it simply has swans in it.

Birds on the cover. Why do they all creep me out so much? Extra points if they’re weird/creepy.

Please feel free to add your suggestions/recommendations!
