weird romance/erotic books
If I had a nickle for every time a book about milk and minotaurs ended up on my TBR because of book social media, I’d have 2 nickels; which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it’s happened twice.
This is dedicated to the weird AF romance/erotic books I’ve come across.
erotic ≠ smutty (necessarily) it just may be erotically charged (ie Lobster)

Why do I keep running into these books it all happened after lobster started infecting my feed 🙁🙁
i had to keep track somehow 😂
I wonder why everyone is talking about Lobster taking over their feed. Mine is just normal
thats so crazy sips tea 👀
I keep mine on a private shelf called “shameful reads book club” (I’m the only one in the book club) 😭
we are all in the bookclub with you 🙂↕️
Someone called?? 😏 I have a 25% overlap with this list and I’ll shout it from the rooftops 😂
Every now and again i think “little cup” and laugh
Could've gone my whole life without knowing any of these existed 😢
To save or not to save 😩🤌🏽
Saved and written down 🙂↕️
Which cult are you starting next 🤣
no one will ever know 😈 the cult forms where the cult wants to form
How about this one: cover to cover noncon with a baker who literally have a bread loaf for a peen The Baker's Forced Breading by Anna Wineheart
reading it was a unique experience
Just the names are gold
Behind Every Door is a treat to the senses.
coughs coughs
Kissing the coronavirus might be a nice consideration...
(Also Santapede did not have erotica at all. There was mention of sex but that's about it, and really no sexual tension or anything, it was just a comedic book)
honestly cant believe i managed to not put kissing the coronavirus on here smh 🤦♀️
i put santapede on here just from second hand seeing posts about it on here and the cover gave erotic vibes but happy to remove if it doesn’t fit the brief
Lmao, we all try to forget it, you're so valid for not putting it there yet. And yeah, for some reason, Santapede kind of felt like it was gonna be the weirdest smut, I honestly was expecting that, but it actually was just a lame wanna be funny mystery. In any case you do whatever you want, I don't care much, but I thought maybe you'd want to know ^^
They blew their whole load with that suggestive cover art 🤌
There are a whole crapton of horror ones. I used to follow someone on Goodreads who reviewed them all the time. I have no idea if any of them are listed here though. 😭 I remember one about a straw scarecrow with a corncob penis.
a corncob penis?!? 🫣
May I suggest Breeding with Bigfoot by Siggy Shade - this one is straight up fucking insane. aaand Kiss of The Basilisk for consideration because it might be just crazy enough for this list.
Siggy Shade 🙌🏻 Kiss of the Basilisk is needed so true!!
You are the best for making this list
No Bones About It by Cassandra Elizzabeth is a sentient object romance about a woman and her 12-foot tall Home Depot skeleton 🥰💀
oh hell yeah 🙂↕️
