Holiday/winter romances that I've read or on TBR. I tend to go for a lighter, romcom feel but might have others in here. Share some recs with meeeeee.

One of my latest hyperfixations has been stories about people getting lost in the woods. So, here's a collection of nonfiction books about mysterious disappearances, murders, and daring rescues that have happened in forests. (David Paulides is excluded from the list.)

There is a big muddy elephant in the room and it's messing up my furniture. The elephant's name is Good Omens is Good But Do I Want My Favorite Book to Be Authored By a Dead Man and Neil Gaiman? (Its mother must not have liked the elephant much.) So I must find a new book. Maybe a scary one that scares the elephant away or one so great it makes the elephant slightly insecure and it quietly leaves. Anyways here are some candidates! They will be removed if I read them and dislike them.

I have an odd fascination with divinity in literature. It feels as though godhood that doesn't strictly adhere to Christian fundamentalism is rare and I am fond of seeing new interpretations of old gods or new gods who make you question what a god even is.

I don't agree with every interpretation but it makes me think.

A work in progress. This is a list of well-received non-fiction books about feminism.

Please suggest more educational and/or fun books with a "Pocket Guide To" in their title! I want this list to be diverse and fun. But also suggest removals if you feel like there is a book that's harmful since I haven't read them all (yet).

nosferatu inspired reading list, books about obsessive and monstrously toxic dynamics, along with vampires and the gothic obviously.

Thick girls in romantasy & fantasy. Because we deserve to be swooned too!

Short novels can sometimes be overlooked by readers who usually go for content that will leave them thinking. Usually, only books that are exceptionally long can do this but that is lost on these.
