Recs if you like Strange the Dreamer...

Fantasy romance and romantasy with at least one MMC who doesn't fit the Shadow Daddy archetype in one way or another.

I'm talking genuinely kind and caring heroes, nerdy or academic interests, or a body type that isn't tall and jacked. (No climbing these men like trees here!) Only men who are sad wet cats, sweet cinnamon rolls, or pathetic losers allowed 💖

Inspired by buttercheese69's forum post on the topic.

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!

Maybe the people are magical, maybe the library is. Maybe these aren’t as fictional as they seem.

Recommendations encouraged!

Bibliophilia at its best - books about books, readers, libraries, bookstores!

Duologies. Duologies! A list full of duologies. This has a collection of titles I'm interested in and some recommended to me. To save you the trouble, I made sure to put both books in a duology in this list. Enjoy! 💐

Non-fiction and fiction books with moths in them. That's it. That's the list. PS: Why isn't there a moth emoji already?!?

When dreams become real: through portals into dream dimensions, through nightmares escaping into the waking world, or by any other means the author can imagine. Includes books of all genres; suggestions always welcome!

These books contain little to no spice🩷 Double checked by me, fellow reviewers, & romance.io, but if there's still a mistake, please do correct! Only 1 book per author

books for the barbie movie lovers

where characters walk dreamscapes, steal dreams into reality, or other stuff that i can’t think to describe rn. (I do not love this title, open to suggestions and will give credit)

This list is for stories about stories, including the more obvious "books-about-books", but also books about who gets to tell stories, what versions of stories become "truth", and other story-based themes. *While not intended to be strictly fantasy, this list does lean heavily into this genre due to my personal reading tastes. **Suggestions welcome!

fantasical libraries and whimsical bookshops, these books add a magical charm to familiar bookish places

Magic? Injury? Stasis? Curse? Sleeping Beauty theme? When a character needs a hand back to consciousness.

Books that are just as good as the cover promises. AKA: Fantastic book covers that also happen to be fantastic books! List will be added to in the future because I can’t leave well enough alone. (Suggestions welcome, leave it in the comments.)

If you're like me, you might have been missing out on some stellar books because they have been published as YA, despite them having more complex themes. I took to the PB Club and asked for your recommendations for books that fit that criteria; this list is a compilation of (mostly fantasy) books from suggestions from all of you! Please feel free to drop some more recommendations, all genres accepted just as long as they are published as YA 🥰

We love a good duology! Mostly fantasy, with a few sci-fi ones thrown in!

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.
