Manga (and novels) that had disappointing anime adaptations (according to me). Series that only had piecemeal "greatest hits" OVAs will also be included. Series that fell off after a promising debut are also included. Series with one good adaptation but some bad ones are also included.

books with covers where characters get to lounge sexily on thrones/chairs

Included in this list are titles that contain Bible references, themes of redemption, and the struggle between good and evil.

Not included: Christian romance 🚫🚫🚫

Audiobooks narrated by actors who appear in a TV or film adaptation of the book too

A spinoff of The Big Bad Luddite List. Whereas the original list is huge and sprawling and includes many books I have not yet read, as well as some that weren't my personal favorite, this Greatest Hits version is condensed and more tightly curated. All the titles on this list are books I personally feel are worth recommending. Check the comments for potential caveats or additional contextual information about certain titles.

Grimdark is about the dirt, the blood, and the crushing weight of reality in a world where "might is right."

Here is a list of 100 essential Grimdark works including standalone novels, series starters, and graphic novels.

Books to read if you enjoyed the movie "Sinners", and would like more culturally rich black and poc stories full of (white) things going bump in the night, to the tune of the saxophones growing ever louder.

Fiction featuring humans turning into small mammals (currently including: rabbits, rats, hamsters) — and vice versa.

This is not a shapeshifter list.

Inspired by theaisreading and my love for teenage detectives and crime stories, I need a list which collects them all. Whether it’s missing secrets or suspicious suspects, these young, sometimes unintentional, detectives are always one step ahead and rarely play by the rules. From cozy to high stake. We don't judge. Feel free to recommend books I've missed and you like!
