picture this: you meet a woman. she’s SO pretty. so you hang out with her, go on a date, even. fall in love. you’re maybe even thinking you could have a future with her! and then, the night ends with you (almost) dying. that’s when you realize you courted a monster 😔 (recs are always welcome!)

Incredible concept, phenomenal title, iconic description. Also, Maw by Jude Ellison S. Doyle would fit here!


ahh thank you! and, added :)
love this!! the description is amazing 🤣
regarding suggestions - if vampires are counted, then Bury Our Bones In the Midnight Soil definitely belongs here! also I have not read it yet but the manga This Monster Wants to Eat Me is a GL about a human and the monster who wants to eat her so I think it likely fits here too!


ooh i’ll have to look into those! thank you for the recs 🤩
came here to say Bury Our Bones


added! 🫶
back at it AGAIN??? okay nezuu dang! 🙂↕️


i just realized i’ve been neglecting the list feature for SO long 😭😭 i’ll probably go back to not making lists again for the foreseeable future, but i have been thinking about these for a hot minute 🙂↕️
you're iconic. the title of this list is everything. i'm obsessed with you.


YOU’RE iconic 🥹🫶
This is perfect lmao. Also, not exactly a book rec, but the description made me think of the Magnus Archives podcast. What if that woman is worms? What if that woman is a living flame? What if that woman is Not That Woman?


yes yes yes yes you get me!! that’s exactly what i was going for 🥹
ᵍᵃˢᵖ even fall in love with a woman?? (⸝⸝๑ ̫ ๑⸝⸝⸝) then find out the bonus joy of her being more?? be still my yearning heart.
hmmm looking at the recs, it not might all be positive. 🤔 Am I looking at this with rose tinted glasses?
OMG I love this list!!!
"Someone You Can Build a Nest In" by John Wiswell also fits this description perfectly.


oooh that ones been on my tbr for a while, totally forgot about it 🤩 thank you, it’s added 🫶
The list title is sooooo good 🤌🏼
