Fantasy romance and romantasy with at least one MMC who doesn't fit the Shadow Daddy archetype in one way or another.

I'm talking genuinely kind and caring heroes, nerdy or academic interests, or a body type that isn't tall and jacked. (No climbing these men like trees here!) Only men who are sad wet cats, sweet cinnamon rolls, or pathetic losers allowed 💖

The red flag emoji is because geese are diabolical, obviously.

Speculative fiction (fantasy, horror, sci-fi, etc.) about, or prominently featuring, ace characters. This includes demisexual characters and ace-spec characters as well! 🖤🤍💜 corrections & recommendations welcome <3

Note: used to be titled “For My Fellow Garlic Bread Lovers” but I worried it would cause confusion or not enough clarity on what the list was about (still keeping the bread emoji tho)

What can I say? I love bones 🤷‍♀️💀 and def open to suggestions, any genre!

Books where a daughter and her complicated/strained relationship with her parental figure(s) is a large part of the story (whether that be the main plot or a major subplot) • note: the title is a quote from the show Arcane (iykyk)

Because Milo winter isn't the first to do so! Books and novels with illustrations have always existed! And I love seeing art peppered in through out a novel to get the extra boost as a reader. So here are novels with pretty illustrations in case you want that extra pizzazz in your books.

Stories featuring demi leads, for those of us who live vicariously through our books✨

Demisexuality may not be explicitly disclosed or outright discussed in these books; I did my best to find stories with a main lead that presents as demi. Recs are encouraged!!

fiction books with a main character or prominent side character that fits the D&D Warlock class! here for the making pacts with eldrich beings, the selling your soul for power, the "how do i get out of this?"! recs and input welcome!

Dimension 20 first success, Fantasy High. 3 seasons of high school high jinks that can undeniable make me laugh even on my darkest days. Peak comfort seasons and you also get the banger of two spin-off seasons with The Seven and Pirate of Leviathan.

Books that are just as good as the cover promises. AKA: Fantastic book covers that also happen to be fantastic books! List will be added to in the future because I can’t leave well enough alone. (Suggestions welcome, leave it in the comments.)
