Super heavy book, but I will recommend this to anybody who can handle how graphic it is.

Timothy Janovsky

Demiseuxal rep! I love Timothy's stories and this one was a nice change from the usual spice.

The Darkness Outside Us

Eliot Schrefer

I found this marketed as a YA romance, but it ended up being an amazing sci-fi thriller that had me on the edge of my seat.

Conventionally Yours

Annabeth Albert

Romance

If you love rivals to lovers and Magic the Gathering, you'll love this one. Neurodivergent rep too!

Out of Character

Annabeth Albert

Romance

A spinoff of Conventionally Yours with a side character fronting this novel. Plenty of nerd culture and tension if you're into that.

The Charm Offensive

Alison Cochrun

Romance

The first romance book I've ever read. Neurodivergent rep and a silly reality tv show made this such a fun read.

Annihilation

Jeff VanderMeer

Science Fiction

A bit confusing at times, but the storytelling was so rich I read it all in one day. I adore a science fiction thriller.

Time to Shine

Rachel Reid

Sports Romance

Full disclosure here, this is almost all smut. I really enjoyed the tension and the relationship timeline, so I recommend it with no shame.

You're a Mean One, Matthew Price

Timothy Janovsky

Holiday Romance

Such a good winter read. The main character is pretty insufferable at first, but it's worth the read in my opinion.
