Books with obsessive and/or codependent queer relationships (relationship doesn't have to be canon but the vibes™ should be there)

Open to recommendations!!
Vicious making it to this list is sending me 😭
Victor and Eli aren't fooling anyone
Actually them being on this list is a match made in heaven lmao
I feel very called out by the overlap percentage
Don't be shy, tell me what it is🤭
54% and I recognize basically every book on this list
hahaha we really love our weird little queer stories don't we
As I refer to it to my wife, the "toxic sports cult" series that is All for the Game. The Foxhole Court is book one.
Added!
I fear we must include God of Fury, Kiss the Villain and Hunt the Villain by Rina Kent. Some unhinged shit going on there
🫡 Should I read them? I hesitate bc I've never vibed with Rina Kent books but I've heard good things about Hunt the Villain
They were hit and miss for me but I think worth a try!!
I've only read God of Fury and Kiss the Villain. They're both 60%+ smut and can be juvenile in the writing but I read it all anyway. Also I plan to read Hunt the Villain so there's something about the books pulling me in. Definitely obsessive boys.
Ah alright. Not very much into smut rn but might read them someday
Lists I think about at least once a week 🙂↕️
The Wicker King by K. Ancrum definitely!
Added! It's been on my tbr since forever I need to get to it soon
You shouldddd it's definitely giving this vibe 🥰
This list is gonna be the bane of my existence.
You have CS Pacat's Dark Rise (which I still need to read) but what about The Captive Prince series?
No fucking way I forgot to add that??? Thanks sm for reminding me abt it how could I forget those freaks
they're the best freaks, for sure! it's been a minute since i read them and i still think about them
Oh god I just finished “The Plans I Have For You” and it deserves to be here.
The way I’d instabadge this as a quest lol
that sounds very interesting👀👀added! (both to this list and my personal tbr🤭)
hell yeah!!🙂↕️🙂↕️
