i can’t stop noticing bowl of mac & cheese titles. everywhere

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

I got my swim trunks & my flippy floppies 🩳🩴

I was listening to the lonely island and the next thing you know, this list happened.

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that go past the July start date and match at least one of these title prompts: Periodic Table, Familial Terms, Rainbow of Words (also Joseph's coat), Numerical Titles, Titular Counting 5+, Pun in the Title, and First & Last Name in the Title. Recommendations welcome!

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

Open waters, treasures, it's a pirates life

Why settle when you can have a monster obsessed with you.

Monster, Mermen, Alien, Entity, Demons, Vampires, Wolf, Orc, ect.

Horror, Fantasy, Romance, and Smut.

Straight & queer

Standalone & series Only first books in series were added because why would you read a second book if you didn't like the first.

High seas, hidden treasure, questionable life choices, and a lot of dramatic shouting. Dive in if you’re ready for adventure, danger, and a little bit of glorious chaos.

Books where the main character is going through it, (or has gone through it), and dammit they’re dealing with it as best they can. Romantasy, SFR mainly! But a few memoirs and litfic too. ❤️‍🩹 Always open to more suggestions ❤️‍🩹

*Check the TW/CW as some of these books are dark romances. If I’ve left a review, I will usually leave a comment w the info

when one thing isn't enough

Sometimes our childhood needs a little ✨️

Alice in wonderland, Cinderella, Mulan, Princess and the frog, Red riding hood, Little mermaid, Peter pan, Tarzan, Sleeping beauty, Snow white, Beauty and the beast, Rapunzel, ect...

Different genre so read at your own discretion 🤭

Started as a vampire girlie, somehow ended up in outer space. And wherever the monsters are.

They are beautiful, and that is their sharpest tooth. These are the sirens of the coral reefs and the silk-skinned selkies of the northern rocks. They promise a life without breath, a kingdom of pearls and moonlight. But the sea never gives without taking, and their songs are simply the dinner bell for the deep. We call them... the Lure.

Beautiful voices, deadly depths - welcome to the sea's secrets

Fantasy Romance and Romantasy are two different genres, but I enjoy them all the same. This list is full of books from both genres, ranging from YA to extra spicy. Recommendations always welcome!

Books with aquatic themes, or water on the cover

Dark romance books that I think deserve all the attention from both lovers of the genre and people dipping their toes in
