Recs if you like Silvercloak...

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!

Book covers with typography oriented in non-standard alignments, instead of the typical horizontal + left to right text alignment. Or: graphic design is my passion, and today we are learning about text paths 🙂‍↕️. This is an immensely silly List, and always open to suggestions—vertical text, circular, upside down, anything goes!

Books where one of the main character(s) pretends to be someone they’re not—literally. Always open to suggestions!

novels, novellas, and graphic novels set in queernormative worlds. (most are within the genre of fantasy.) we all deserve to feel at home

Romantasy books to read to escape reality that AREN’T ACOTAR and Fourth Wing.

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!

Disabled People don’t exist to Inspire Others.

If you want some book recommendations with disabled folks that just exist (without that inspirational suffering or being portrayed as a hero) - this is your list 🤭💗

Eclectic choices of stories to forget life sucks.

I love reading romances between men and women where one or both of the characters are bi because it shows the potential of bi people to fall in love with any gender, if that makes sense. So often bi people in “straight” relationships don’t get clocked as LGBTQ+ and I like seeing how they make a “straight” relationship queer. It’s also nice to read about LGBTQ+ outside of achillian and sapphic stories and spaces. I’m always on the hunt for more.

when “a love for the ages” goes literal, these romances bend time, break rules, and (mostly) spark joy in every timeline.

Books with time loops

here are some romantasy recs you may have not heard before!

kind of struggling with books where the MC's instantly get together or hook up, so here are some book recs where the couple waits until at least 50% of the book to get together

Give me more badass FMCs who don’t wait for someone else to save the day!! Quick with a blade, quicker with a comeback, these bad b*tches take on monsters, villains, and terrible life choices with equal ferocity. If you’re looking for women who break rules, break hearts, and occasionally break a few bones, this is the ultimate list for you.

if you want to work on your HRCYED 3.0 Periodic Table prompt and the amazing quests on Pagebound then this list is for you (and inspired by my own status as a badge gremlin). all the books should be in at least one quest per July 31st 2026.🧚‍♀️

Elements represented are: Radium Iron Gold Silver

are you saving the world? or is the world saving you?

(mainly) fantasy books with (any combination of) morally grey characters, corrupt leadership, and maybe a perspective twist or two.

Adult & YA romantasy & fantasy romance books that are unique & addictive

Books that have just such a good description of food

books i’ve read (and liked) that made me feel the cozy calm (or dark grit) of fall

no rhyme or reason, just ✨vibes✨

**i’m including some cozy fantasy/spooky season/fall-occurring books, but this list is also meant to expand beyond those limited sub-genres to include books i think would hit different if read during fall or majorly incorporate elements i associate w fall like mountains/forests, adventures, murder, small towns, seasons of change/hardship, grittiness, dark academia, pirates, etc
