My absolute favorite character trope. Yes, we are realllly stretching the definition of academia, but it’s my list and I’ll add if I want to.

50s coming tomorrow!

The placeholder book is meant to represent Vice Versa, the first lesbian periodical published in the US by Lisa Ben in 1947!

Bug flavored books

Ever want to feel uncomfortable but not for too long? Short weird books that can be read in one sitting. Weird can mean weird girl, horror, questionable choices, uncomfortable and anything all around and in between. These books are not meant to be scary, but horror elements are within many.

Weird girl lit that is bordering on horror lit. I don't want just weird, I want uncomfortable, gross, wrong. May not be just girls being weird, may be gays or theys

If I ever get my memory wiped, direct me to the list

Books where music plays a pivotal role

Books where women kill

Books that depict disability

Books that have LGBTQ+ representation

Cosmic horror is hard to define, because it takes several forms. Gods, cults, monsters beyond comprehension, madness, etc... and also wildly different forms (one can argue that the Backrooms and Bloodborne inhabit different sides of a spectrum). I'm setting out to read more, and this is what I have read and still have to read. If a book doesn't qualify, I'll remove it after finishing it.

Gilmore Girls: This is a list of nonfiction books that at least touch on Gilmore Girls, either written by people involved with Gilmore Girls, about the show or are about the fictional characters. With Sookie's cookbook added in for fun.

I will be adding to this list as I find and read more. Feel free make suggestions, as this is my first list that isn't just a book series.

Plays and Works

a collection of existential crises, surreal detours, grotesque little creatures, and the occasional philosophical cockroach. somewhere between the absurdity of being alive and the absurdity of trying to understand it.

Books I can reread and still enjoy
