Recs if you like Fallow...

Following women on journeys to do weird and maybe violent things.

We do not dream of labour but labour sure does dream of smothering and exploiting us in new and unusual ways.

aka the severance vibes are strong here

Lit fic books to read for the aesthetic

What threats does bodily autonomy pose? Why do governments or other powers want such control?

These books take a look at what the freedom to make one’s own choices means.

To be clear, these are books that smell like the candle, not Gwyneth Paltrow's actual vagina. They're books with girl bosses, lip oils or maybe serums.

Often murder. Sometimes kinda culty.

Burn after reading.

All the 2026 BOTM monthly, add on, and Allurial titles

All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.

Do you enjoy reading about bad bosses and horrible workplaces? Are you anxiously awaiting the next season of Severance? Do you feel a delightful rush of goosebumps at the mention of workplace horror, technothrillers, technocratic dystopia, and tales of dysfunctional late-stage capitalism run amok? This may be the list for you!

Natalie Naudus has narrated hundreds of audiobooks so bear with me as I try to get them all on this list!

Because yes, I do judge.

Also all written by women (I think, correct if wrong)

Books about women struggling with their place in society, society’s expectations of them. Some have humor to them, most are of a darker tilt.

Why read a cozy book, when instead you can feel unsettled while reading of another women’s journey through the horrors of life?

From a slow descent into madness, covering up murder for siblings, accidentally(?) joining a cult, to insurance fraud over taxidermy - this list covers it all!!

Books that are considered weird girl lit or have unhinged women.

This is one of a few lists I'm making to help me organize my ideas for HRCYED 3.0. Feel free to take inspiration or comment with more ideas.
