#book rec request
Text
I've heard some people say to "just watch shows without sex" and that kind of stuff, but never any actual suggestions. and while I do think it should be allowed to show love, sexual, romantic and otherwise, I do have the impression 99% of media that isn't made for 7 year olds has romance, crushing and/or sex and even some of the stuff made for 7 year olds has it. especially if you count any romantic relationship shown or married people, but even if you ignore that.
do people have any recommendations of media (especially TV series) WITHOUT any sex, romance and crushing? (ideally without partnerships shown, but idk if that exists)
I haven't yet found anything that's in any physical store or library or streaming service, only Amazon books (I'm not getting something in the mail from outside my country the tax for that is like 100%).

I'm looking for book recs!
Things I'm looking for: urban fantasy, romance (especially romantic suspense, paranormal romance, and/or queer or polyamorous), political thrillers, mysteries (more Kay Hooper than John Grisham), easy fantasy
Things I'm not looking for: hard fantasy or sci fi, horror, lit fic, historical or Christian romance, YA, Colleen Hoover or Sarah J. Maas
Feel free to rec your own books, if they're out there somewhere! I appreciate any suggestions people have for me.

this is such a specific vibe but could you guys recommend me some authors like kurt vonnegut, joseph heller, chuck palahniuk, and charlotte perkins gilman?
#i guess what i'm saying is these authors capture the turmoil of ptsd with a sense of humor and it'd mean the world to me to get to read more#authors with feelings just like mine!#book recs wanted#book rec request#book recommendations#from ellie

Does anybody have any history book recommendations that aren’t about World War Two?
I don’t mind what the books about, I’ve just spent the last three years learning about and researching all the aspects of World War Two so now I’m looking for something new to learn about however I don’t really know where to start.

I wish there was a website where I could browse books by tropes and themes. E.g. give me a list of everything with elemental magic, but without love triangles.

I need some classics recommendations!!
So far I’ve read Jane Austen’s books, Picture of Dorian Gray, some Agatha Christie (Poirot specifically and And Then There Were None), Great Gatsby, 1989, Animal Farm and Frankenstein. My favourites and Jane Austen and Picture of Dorian Gray.
If you have any recommendations please give them because I want to get more into classics but not sure what to read.

what book would you recommend to someone looking for...
new ask game dropped! idk if anyone has done this already but I thought it was fun. beware, some are vague, some are oddly-specific, because it's more fun this way!!
for a mind-blowing idea
for a beautiful writing style
for stories dealing with growth and teenagers' themes
for a good cry
for an heartbreaking love story
for stories about people of old age and their themes
for a memorable short read
for a book that aged to be funnier than it was supposed to be
for an intelligent children's book
for books who have a simple vocabulary, easy to read in different languages
for a book that excellently deals with taboo themes
for an historical novel
for a book with an unusual point of view
for an unexpected mystery
for an unresolved book
for an ingenious, unusual way of storytelling
for a life-changing book
for an introduction to a big topic/theme
for a book with memorable quotes
for an historical/journalistic inquiry
for a book set in a fascinating place
for a book that has inspired some cool other media
for a dystopic book that reflects the present
for a reworking of another story
for a book that evokes more wisdom than it probably has
for a book whose ending is open to interpretation
for an unreal story that feels terribly realistic
for a book that both disgusts and fascinates
for a book that feels like a spanish soap opera
for an absurd true story
for a book that would be completely ruined by the habit of reading the last sentence
for a book with dubious morality
for a story that dives into a rather unknown culture or facet of a culture
for a book that deals with queer themes in a genuine, personal way
for an interesting diary/collection of letters
