Recs if you like The Death I Gave Him...

The bard's stories, but different.

These books return to Shakespeare’s stories and let them bloom anew, tracing familiar plots through fresh voices and altered fates. Here, old quarrels find new ground, lovers cross re‑drawn paths, and kingdoms rise again in different light.

Books that retell or reference Shakespeare’s works.

Suggestions welcome

If horror, why hot?

are you kind of annoyed that all sci fi books seem to be set in space and then don't engage with science fiction at all beyond spacefaring? do you want more science fiction that challenges how far science can go without leaving the stratosphere? this list is for you!

I love queer literature, and I will not stand by horrible queer books being recc'ed anymore. So this is a compilation of books I've read that were good AND queer!

Books with insides as sexy as their outsides! Or like literary merit and all that.

I love retellings, especially of mythology or fairy tales. Here's a bunch of my favorite retellings. I've only included the first book if it's a series, but in most cases, all the books are worth reading.

These are books I will never get tired of recommending. I think you could summon me in a demonic circle if they were in it. (WIP still adding)
