Crimes committed by movie studios against amazing books. “The book walked, so these movies could trip and fall down the stairs” - JadeLovesBooks ✨

Allow me to set the scene:

It’s 2 AM on a school night but you only have 100 pages left. You will power through. Forget the math test you have first period. This is your priority. And you must know how the book ends.

I don’t know what sort of millennial catnip these 2000s YA authors put in these books, but let me tell you, my “baby millennial” self was addicted.

Pagebound Millennials: what YA were you reading?

we love a man who yearns in this house

Cult classics, guilty pleasures, popcorn reads, addictive stories in dire need of an editor, just some good old fun — these are books with an average enjoyment rating that is at least 0.5 stars higher than the average quality rating. This is a purely objective criterion and doesn’t necessarily reflect my personal opinion on quality or enjoyment of these books. Suggestions welcome! Please also inform me when I messed up the math/the ratings changed, that’s bound to happen sooner or later.

is it egocentric? maybe but is it funny? also maybe and it's weirdly specific so i think it meets the criteria

the staples of the book community on youtube in the early to mid 2010s.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

(going to only add the first book in a series)

Bring on those Gen Y memories! A list of books likely to give people born between 1981 and 1996 a lot of feelings.

This list is for those of us who grew up eagerly awaiting the Scholastic Book Fair, watching Reading Rainbow (or Wishbone!), and dreaming of a free personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut.

Note: these are not books published in 1981-1996, but books that had a hold on the millennial generation.

Also check out the Dear America series, American Girl series & Royal Diaries series.

A roundup of YA books that were popular back in the days of us baby millennials. For anyone feeling nostalgic for the 2010’s. Draw a little mustache on your finger because you’re so quirky and get reading like you already finished your homework for the night!

Based on my favorite podcast Rereading the Revolution. The hosts reread and recap popular 2000s-2010s novels from Divergent to Looking for Alaska.

The list is in order of oldest episodes to most recent. I will try and update when new episodes drop.

So take a walk down memory lane with these nostalgic picks, or find something new that sparks your inner teenager! Please give the podcast a listen, I think they’re a great bookish podcast to support

Fiction with LGBTQ characters or themes, published for teens between 1990 and 2009.

I'm a sucker for them

The goal: to have the most comprehensive complete list of vampire books, fiction and otherwise, in the world. Then? I’ll read them all.

Please send recs <3

Student X Professor. Romances with one of the two characters being a professor. Forbidden(ish) romances.

Open for recommendations ^^

Fantasy romance books from before the coining of Romantasy.

The first book in a series.

And baby, you KNOW these are problematic 🌚

When I say mid-00's I cannot stress enough that I am going on vibe alone. The actual publication date (or status as a YA book) matters way less than the fact that I, a teen in the mid-00s, consumed many of these titles.

Recommendations welcome! They don't have to have aged poorly for me to add them in, but boy it sure happens to have shaken out that way!

Books that either filtered to me directly from or have strong associations with booktok. A lot of dark romance, a lot of smut, some things I would (lovingly) consider "trashy".

Vampires across all genres and vibes. FInd your prefered blood, I mean book, type and devour your next favorite victim, I mean story.
