this list is not to be confused with mastication
self care romance books in all forms: mutual, solo, IRL, video call, phone, overhearing, walking in on, public space, etc etc.
if you hate the word ‘masturbation’, try: flicking the bean, jerking off, finger banging, rub one out, beat the meat, dj the vj, wanking, jerkin the gherkin, fapping; we can go on for days. whatever you call it, i just hope you reach climax ⛰️ toys encouraged but a hand (or two or three or-) will do just fine.
🫵 𝑔𝑜 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇𝓈𝑒𝓁𝒻! 🫵 😇 gladly 😇






pat my head and call me a good girl
romance books with particular interest in the MC saying iterations of “good girl” (kneeling is encouraged) - praise kink is explored in some titles.
these characters want to please their love interests by listening and following instructions. best paired with a good girl doing 𝒷𝒶𝒹 things.
this list is for those that were A+, teachers pet students and are now adults that want to be told they are doing a good job in the bedroom ⭐️ this list is NOT in reference to animals






When he washes or braids her hair
There’s just something about a love interest washing or braiding someone's hair that gets me every single time 🥹






Ruby Dixon
The (ideally) complete guide to Ruby Dixon. If you need a place to start, I recommend Ice Planet Barbarians. If you like one of her books, you are likely to enjoy more. She is a go-to author of mine when i need something but have a hard time choosing. I have not read all her books, but would like to know how many i have read already. Have fun!
Update: she has 162 books, if anyone notices a book missing plz let me know. I havent actually cross referenced the extensive IPB list.






Thanks, it’s the✨Trauma ✨
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
