The SCP is an organization that Secures, Contains, and Protects our world against anomalous objects, entities, and phenomena. Be advised: these books contain such SCPs that have escaped confinement and have caused havoc and destruction. Read at your own peril. And remember to document your findings.

Focus on non-humans (trees, robots, animals, aliens, creatures, objects…) and empathy (especially of humans towards them, or the exploration of the empathy/feelings/thoughts of non-humans towards others). Lack of or existing empathy included.

general/adult fiction, mostly & the occasional nonfic

In progress / updated over time I’ve read a good lot of these (34), and plan to read most of the rest. It’s a special interest of mine. ✨

(Suggestions welcome & appreciated!!) I also have a list in my library of titles to look into that may or may not fit the list! Feel free to look & lmk if you think they do.

sci-fi visions of BIPOC cultures on other planets or in space. recommendations always welcome!

(all-genres) fiction involving robberies. please leave recs!

An on-going attempt to track Asian authors in my Interested/TBR (and hopefully Finished) categories. Books are generally fiction/lit fic/fantasy with some memoirs. Authors span West to East Asia, the Asian diaspora, and mixed-race folx.

Books where there is a strong female friendship in a Fantasy book.

Hii, everyone ♡ I am a very big fan of the booktuber @caricanread so I thought I would make a list of all the books she has read this year! ✰

Every single Aardvark Book Club book pick since its inception. Updated monthly!

gays in space (or I guess sometimes dealing with space shit on earth), with a tending toward optimistic futures. this list will continue to grow and change over time. this list includes trans folks, queercore, and graphic novels.

if a book is part of a series, I'm only listing the first book just so the list doesn't get overrun.

sapphics in outer space science fiction. maybe they’re on a space ship or station, another planet or a moon. perhaps there’s a romantic pairing or maybe there’s just w|w pining. always trans+ inclusive.

I haven’t read all of these, so please drop a comment with a suggested edit or a book rec!

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.)

books about space and other planets

or books set (ambiguously or not) in space

Sci-fi and fantasy books prominently featuring queer characters or set in a queer-normative world
