*individual bigger brain results may vary

🚧this list is under construction🚧

If I had a nickle for every time a book about milk and minotaurs ended up on my TBR because of book social media, I’d have 2 nickels; which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it’s happened twice.

This is dedicated to the weird AF romance/erotic books I’ve come across.

erotic ≠ smutty (necessarily) it just may be erotically charged (ie Lobster)

submissions welcome

//PLEASE CHECK TW BEFORE READING ANY OF THESE BOOKS - READ AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION//

Shifter lovers step right up: we’ve got sexy penguins & cryptids & dinosaurs, oh my! 😏

Slide into these romance + erotica books with shifters ranging from frisky creatures of the deep to hot prey animals. There are great PB lists with popular shifters (wolves, bears, etc) and sentient object shifters, so I wanted to provide something different.

Books include omegaverse, fated mates, variety of relationships (sapphic, MM, MF, etc), & tons of spice. 🔥

Open to recs!

noticed a distinct lack of bird shifter and avian monster romance on here so I took it upon myself to fill that hole. beaks? we got ‘em. talons? got those too. flying? what do you think birds (except ostriches, penguins, etc.) do?

as always taking any and all suggestions!!

Romance or erotica reads that feature monsters of all varieties. These will be reads under 200 pages. Sometimes you just need a quickie! Novellas and short stories from a wide range of sub genres with diverse characters and styles. Recommendations welcome!
