Recs if you like Daggermouth...

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

I started keeping a list on my phone every time I caught a character drooling over the love interest's forearms and now I am sharing my findings with the world! I shall continue to conduct this important groundbreaking research for the sake of all mankind . Looking for collaborators! If you find any mentions of sexy forearms in your books, I would love to add it!

Note: Inclusion in this list doesn't mean I loved the book, strangely, some of these books are my lowest rated reads. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This list is dedicated to the couples who crossed the line only after they actively tried to murder each other. The stakes here are life-or-death, not simple "rivalry" or "bullying". When I say enemies, I mean literally lethal. I'm always looking to add more bodies to this pile - please feel free to share your hit lists with me!

Romantasy books to read to escape reality that AREN’T ACOTAR and Fourth Wing.

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 🫶 I'll update as I continue to read. Please share any suggestions you have for our friends in the comments.

Black girls deserve their happily ever after as well!

Just a list of books coming out in 2026 that I’m really excited for :) it will be updated as the months go by! It will be a mix of: high fantasy, romance fantasy, sci-fi, gothic, horror, lit fic, historical fiction, retellings, poetry, romance, & more!!

PLEASE drop your recs!! This is a work in progress and I'm not an expert, just upset that i couldnt find any preexisting pagebound lists highlighting indie books by Black authors

Dystopian matchmaking: romance and love stories that happen against all odds

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! ✰

A collection of adult fantasy romance with mature main characters. This list includes both standalones and the first book in series. Let me know if you have any recs!!

Do you, like me, often find yourself looking at a book cover thinking, "Y'all are doing waaay too much." Why are book covers so dang extra nowadays? Here are some books that appeal to me simply because they have covers that don't look like a 19 year old with Photoshop barfed a bunch of design elements on a book and called it a day. Some I've read, some are on the TBR. And to all the authors and publishers out there, K.I.S.S.

Get on the hype train for these upcoming releases of books in a series. Now is the perfect time to jump on board a new series or start a re-read.

Covers the next 12 months. Updates once a month - please send recs

Change to list view and sort by author for easier browsing.

I will list the first book in the series and the upcoming book. I'm not including series from romances where it's hard to tell if the books are standalone or not (for my health🙃).

(I'm already questioning my sanity on how I'm going to maintain this, I wish we could make collaborative lists on here 😭)

Fantasy romance books (or paranormal-adjacent e.g. Omegaverse) with FMCs in their 30s or older and/or FMCs who read as +30s

For the girls who fight love! These are my favorite spicy recs with couples that hate how attracted they are to each other at first. What some call animosity, I call chemistry!

Since I loved YA dystopian in the 2010s, I wanted to gather all the 2020s books coming out in this new trend of romantic dystopia (recommendations welcome!)

Romantasy books my favorite Toks are reading...both mainstream and indie

"an imagined world or society in which there is great suffering or injustice, typically one that is totalitarian or post-apocalyptic. many of the people lead dehumanized and fearful lives"

Give me more badass FMCs who don’t wait for someone else to save the day!! Quick with a blade, quicker with a comeback, these bad b*tches take on monsters, villains, and terrible life choices with equal ferocity. If you’re looking for women who break rules, break hearts, and occasionally break a few bones, this is the ultimate list for you.

Fantasy, Sci-Fi, and Dystopian stories with decolonial roots and raging against the machine. ⭐eat the rich⭐defund the police⭐fuck ICE⭐LAND BACK
