Recs if you like The Entanglement of Rival Wizards...

Fantasy books with queer rep

Because we‘d all kneel for a cute nerd (or bespectacled hottie in general) 🥵📚 Collection of romance books where the MMC wears glasses and looks fabulously hot in them 😍 Bonus points if there is a scene where he takes them off to kiss his partner harder 🔥🌶️ Recommendations are always very much welcome (also I haven‘t read every single book on here, so please feel free to correct me if one doesn‘t fit)

Suggestions always welcome! SFF books written to be humorous, satiric, or otherwise meant to entertain and make readers laugh. (This was a quest idea i was thinking about, but I'm not committed enough to this to make it)

Romance books to read for the aesthetic (usually cartoon covers because I’m trash for character art)

Sport (fictional + real) and competition queer romance recommendations!

Feel free to leave your own recommendations in the comments and I will add them to the list! :)

Romance books featuring queer characters living with physical disabilities, mental health struggles, chronic illness, and/or neurodevelopmental conditions.

Note: If a series features the same MCs, I've only put the first book. If a series features different MCs, I've only listed the relevant book(s) in the series.

Be aware: list spans YA to erotica.

🚫 No "magical cure" tropes or "better dead than disabled" tropes welcome. No inspo porn.

Please leave any recs or concerns in the comments. 📝

Exactly what it says! Done watching Heated Rivalry? Waiting for the rest of the Game Changers books to come in at the library? I've got you covered!

Also a good list if you're dipping your toe into thinking about romance as 'real' reading - these books will give you nuance, social justice, magic systems, empowerment, and all of them will give you supportive queer love and nice warm feels. Not all sports, though there's many of those in here. Welcome to reading romance, friends!

fun/casual lgbt books. predominantly contemporary romance, trying to avoid lit fic. more for when i am looking for a palette cleanse.

Want stem romance, but tired of it all being straight couples? Yeah, me too

Books with main characters (or love interests) that are hissy and rude/prickly but deep down it’s because they are sensitive little cupcakes who are afraid of being hurt and just want some love and affection 🥺

Open to suggestions!
