Love stories where one or both main characters are South Asian

Love sees past cultural differences (I don’t know how to change the skin colour of the second person in the couple emojis)

Books by and/or about women artists throughout history (wip! taking recs!)

The world scares me sometimes, and I need to run away. These are the books that let me escape for a while. I can't promise they are any less scary - but at least they are different!

Wuhluhwuh books I loved

Romances that make you feel so happy and have you kicking your feet and giggling through the banter!

A lot of lesbian longing; how the ways we experience the world can be so vastly different, and how kind and curious that can make us if we let it

To getting off my jarring Instagram feed and lowering my resting heart rate in this anxiety fuelled world; mix of non-fiction and fiction because sometimes fiction depicts our current world more accurately than a documentary

Booktok made you pick up Butcher & Blackbird, now it's time to delve into Brynnes other novels

Pre-WWII classic literature chosen for winter reading and introspective, character-driven narratives. These novels favor interiority, emotional resonance, and quiet reflection, ideal for slow, thoughtful reading.

If you love… introspective classics, emotionally rich stories, and winter reading rituals

Japanese Furoshiki cloths are used to create bags, wrap gifts and much more. I love the technique of using one piece of fabric for so many different things. All of these books show ways of folding and tying the wraps, and many show you how to make your own. Here are my favorites.

Classic literature published before World War II, curated for fall reading and psychological depth. These classics emphasize moral complexity, darker themes, and atmospheric storytelling that pairs naturally with autumn.

If you love… psychological classics, morally complex characters, darker themes, and moody fall reads

Books from all genres that provide a reflection about childhood and what it's like to be a child. Expect coming of age stories, early ages memoirs, and more far-fetched novels depicting childlike wonder! Let yourself be taken away on an adventure to rediscover what childhood is through real stories, invented ones and metaphors of childhood!

Collection of nonfiction(essays, speeches, poetry, social commentary, memoirs etc) written by Black Americans or about Black History.

From the game. Because I can't be the only one using it as an excuse to add to my tbr

this one is for the folks who have to lie (psst - you don’t have to) when someone they just met ask what they’re currently reading.

What does "freaky" mean? Spicy romance (yes, smut), unusual characters, bizarre occurrences, honestly anything that has you saying "wow... freaky"!

Suggestions welcome!

MM Romance Books where at least one MC isn't human.
