Recs if you like Neanderthal Seeks Human (Knitting in the City, #1)...

Romance novels and stories with substantial romantic subplots where at least one lead is explicitly neurodivergent. Every title is either own voices, has a character whose neurodivergence is confirmed within the text or by the author. This collection celebrates love across the full spectrum of neurological diversity, including Autism, ADHD, OCD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Tourette's, Hoarding Disorder, PTSD, and more. Recommendations are always welcome!

As a tall-ish girl myself, every time I come across an FMC who is described as tiny, I yearn a bit more for some tall FMC representation — we can be love interests too! 🥹😍 So I made this list of (mostly romance and fantasy) books with a tall FMC. Whether she is taller than her partner, or they are somehow EVEN TALLER than her, all is welcome here 🫶

I haven’t read every single book on this list, so please correct me if I am wrong somewhere. More book recs super appreciated!!! 🤍

Romance books which just make you feel good while reading them. They have a happy end and good vibes overall. Maybe you enjoy reading them during the summer or when you need a little something to take your mind of things. They don't have very dark topic, though they don't have to be without a little conflict to keep you entertained. Feel free to comment so I can add more recommendations!

Fiction books that have a character who knits or crochets ✨ So beware, these people have needles and know how to use them 🧶⚔️ (pls imagine the swords as two crossed knitting needles, and yes we really should have that as an emoji)

At this point I am not sure if yarn really is cheaper than therapy, buuuut it is still fun and great for stress relief, and I love coming across characters who share a hobby with me 😍

finding love in a big city can be just as fun as finding love in a small town! I love small town romances, but as a girl from a big city, I want to give big city romances their time to shine ✨

here’s a list of books where our main characters live in a big city and fall in love there. cities can be real (London, Paris, New York, LA, Tokyo, etc.) or fictional (Minas Tirith, King’s Landing, Gotham, Bon Temps, etc.)!

as always, taking suggestions!!

Romance books featuring meaningful mental health and neurodivergent representation, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, and more. Because every kind of mind deserves butterflies and a happily ever after.

Books featuring plus size body positive FMC finding happily ever after. Both stand alones and series

Smart female protagonists = elite. I wanna be just like them. Open to suggestions! Intelligence can be topic specific, or general booksmarts

A list of books LarryReads has been sent. A lot of small indie authors. Lots of dark romance

✨Books for when your brain needs a fucking break.✨

Palate Cleansers are easy, low-stakes romances that don’t ask too much of you emotionally or mentally and will not require a therapy session after you are done.

No complicated emotional devastation. Just good chemistry, a lovable love story, a manageable amount of conflict

Because sometimes, after consuming a five-course emotional meal, you don’t need another heavy dish. You need the literary equivalent of a little lemon sorbet. 🍋📖
