Romantic Fantasy
This was the book that got me back into reading after years, and helped me rediscover my love for romantic fantasy!
A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses Series #1)
Book number 2 is probably my favorite in the ACOTAR series. IYKYK! 👀
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
ACOTAR series book 3….emotional rollercoaster! I grew to love characters I never thought I would in this book.
A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
This novella isn’t super necessary to get the full picture of the series. But it’s short and fun, and a nice cozy break in between all the drama!
“I didn’t want him morally grey. I wanted someone with a soul black as night. Someone who would burn the world down for me and not lose a single minute of sleep over it.”
This book has a great mix of spice, murder and humor. I was surprised how much...
Lights Out (Into Darkness Series #1)|Paperback
“But if we’re monsters, we’ll thrive in the dark. Together.”
This one also had me laughing at times, but it’s not for those with weak stomachs! Nothing TOO gruesome, but IYKYK.
Butcher & Blackbird (Ruinous Love Trilogy #1)|Paperback
I love a book that combines my two favorite genres- romantic fantasy and dark romance! Add this dark romantic fantasy to your TBR if you love enemies to lovers with morally grey characters, Gods and Monsters.

Flock|Paperback
This one wrecked me emotionally. We love rainy days… ⛈️
This dark contemporary romance is angsty, morally grey, raw and emotional.
Beautiful Graves by L.J. Shen, Paperback | Barnes & Noble®
If rom-com style, grumpy/sunshine tropes are your thing you’ll like this one! I read it because it was inspired by the show Schitts Creek, which I love. And I ate it up and immediately bought the second one!
It Happened One Summer|Paperback
Book #2, following the sister of the main character in “It Happened One Summer!”
Hook, Line, and Sinker|Paperback
This one is more YA mystery, and the contemporary romance is most definitely a sub-plot. But I really enjoyed it and flew through it. Addicting!
