Books that give summer vibes, are nice to read in the season, have vivid descriptions of the season or weather as a significant part of their plot, or otherwise take place in summer.

With explorations of identity, vanity, the fragility of beauty, and mental decay through a dark lens. Multi-genre including literary, contemporary, horror, etc.

All those books that have a place name and the word Gothic. In case you need a little bit of Gothic closer to home (or farther away...)

Note that I haven't read all of these

if they get together before book three, or before the last twenty pages, it doesn’t count.

Books about hunting but not the kind you're thinking. Humans hunting humans, animals hunting humans, monsters hunting humans, etc. Any unusual scenarios that still fit the idea of hunting and predator vs prey.

Missing "Discover & Do: Level B Science Experiments".

Stories for processing all types of grief

As the title says, these are books I had never heard of until BookTok, and I’ve read them all. (If a book is on this list, that means I liked it.)

Criteria: notable fiction books, including novels, story collections, plays, etc involving the French Revolution, taking place during the French Revolution, or heavily inspired by the French Revolution.

A list published in 2024 by the New York Times, as voted on by 503 novelists, poets, critics, and other book lovers—with a little help from the staff of The New York Times Book Review

Be careful what books you read aloud and what spells you cast, or you might just find yourself tied to a Demon! Though if you do find yourself in this position, you might as well have some fun 😈😂 -you know, when life gives you lemons and all that lol-
