Are you like me and have lost yourself in the massive scale of concept art paintings by Ralph McQuarrie or Jaime Jones? Do you see a retro-futuristic art piece and go "hell yeah"?

This list aims to collect all books with covers that consist of large scale, holy-shit-people-are-so-small, massively proportioned scenes. Landscapes that somehow have so much more depth than it seems can actually fit into them.

Suggestions of any genre are welcome! 🙏

"Weird girl literature" vibes but from the perspective of an animal?? Idk why but I need to read some of these...

Gothic book I have or want to read (feel free to recommend)

A holiday reading inspired version of my list: It’s okay to judge a book by its cover! This is NOT an endorsement of whether these books are enjoyable. They have pretty covers that will make your reading wrap ups look so cute!

stories set in guam or books with an islander-theme written by chamorro authors

best of the west(erns). not the hotel

ugly covers, beautiful fantasy

For those that prefer their leading ladies (and men) with a little junk in the trunk.

Romance books where the leads have to survive on their own in nature

Books that will make you want to hop on your soapbox every chance you get to tell your friends, family members, coworkers, and the occasional stranger why the future of artificial general intelligence (AGI) is bleak. You’ll have all the facts as to the human and environmental impact of this exploitative development of a technology that has been growing for decades.

my top books of the year! This can be because I have a blast reading them, I connected with the story and/or they made me cry like a baby note: these are all not 5⭐️

Spicy times in unique places

Book titles that could ostensibly fit the cadence of a string of words your Grandmother utters when she's trying not to swear. (Yes this is the stupidest list idea I've ever had) (Inspired by my late grandfather-in-law, who once uttered "Jiminy Christmas!" when his flabbers were ghasted, a phrase I will not soon forget.)

WLW books that deal with the intersection of queer identity and religion.

-polyamoury, ethical non-monogamy, open relationships, swingers, friends w benefits... -compersion for partners and friends -learning how to be more & less for others -majority queer, cis/straight friendly
