This is every book mentioned in Madonna in a fur coat by Sabahattin Ali along with every book mentioned by David selim sayers as part of the introduction(I have to add a few more book to the list).

This is the novels, novellas, novelettes (if they exists on Pagebound), first book of the series and one book from the best author that are nominated for a Hugo Award in 2026. I personally need an overview on what to catch on for the votes (closing beginning of August :))

Books about ✨BIRDS!!!✨ the most beautiful, strange, silly, magical creatures.

G&G bonus hints. Books with trials with some spice.

G&G June Challenge

Books that feature narrators who lie by omission to the reader or they don’t have enough information so have a narrow view of the plot.

Own any translation dictionaries? No? Well, you might want to now.

These books will make you want to keep one by your side, be it for the various Chinese dialects, Latin, Old Welsh, Arabic, and so on that appear as quotes, vocab, or key references ~

Nonfiction books exploring the natural world and our “place in the family of things” (Mary Oliver, Wild Geese) through radical BIPOC, queer, feminist, anti-capitalist, disability ecological perspectives. 🪲🌾🦉🌵

A collection of stories where power is born in darkness, fate crowns the unwilling, and ancient magic shapes those brave enough to step into the shadows.

A lot of sex scenes with transgender characters can feel uncomfortable to read, especially if it's leaning into fetishizing. These ones navigate it well, have a cute romance to go with, and feel realistic or are written well.

I cannot guarantee all of these will be comfortable for everyone, but I'll be adding ones me and/ or my partner liked and felt comfortable with (or at least they could capture the discomfort associated with the act)

Will add to with time

ESPN could never

Stories of sibling hood

These are books that have supported my childhood-trauma healing journey. They voice experiences common to survivors and highlight a way forward
