Do you want to read a classic story written by a woman author, with a smart, sexy, and competent POC woman as the protagonist - a woman who treats the men in her life at least as well as they treat her, but still always puts herself first? A story full of polyam coding, with plenty of romance - interracial and otherwise - and a sex-positive outlook? And there's some pretty spicy stuff in here too, just saying. Oh yeah, and how refreshing is it to have a female protagonist who, the one time it comes up, just gets an abortion right away and wastes no time at all mooning over whether she should or not? Girl knows what she wants and goes for it - who doesn't love that? This masterpiece had a huge influence on everything that came after it, though there's all sorts of puritans trying to censor it these days - society really does hate women, amirite? But nevermind that, you can still find the original online pretty easy even if they won't put it in a bookstore anymore. Just watch out - it's got a nasty cliffhanger at the end that'll leave you desperate to read the sequel, too!

A slice-of-life story about very common characters going through normal everyday events that are always happening, along with epic fights against monstrous villains! This story is often praised for its accuracy, and you might even learn a thing or two as you experience it, and depending on what classes you're taking, it may even help you pass ;) Though if you find yourself unexpectedly growing attached to these characters, be prepared to cry in one arc (and maybe you'll be shocked to be crying over characters like these). This story has themes of teamwork, friendship, and perseverance, encouraging you to do your best. It even has a neurodivergent-coded main character who manages to figure things out her own way despite the challenges she faces in comparison to her peers!

Looking for a new series to get lost in? This [media property] has something for everyone! Deep and complex lore to uncover and puzzle out. Detailed worldbuilding that feels surprisingly alive. A plot with environmentalist and existential themes that digs into both the importance of connecting with others and the need to be able to let go. A cast full of unique and colorful characters including a badass single mother, a fat character who’s a clever and capable leader, a heroic terminally ill warrior racing against time to save someone else’s life, and a nonbinary mentor figure doing all they can to assist from afar. And while the series is definitely not without romance, the most central and compelling interpersonal relationship is actually a troubled but ultimately loving sibling bond. A new installment came out late 2025, and although the fandom is on the smaller side, they’re surprisingly prolific- between the trilogy itself and the people making fanworks, if you like the series, you’ll have plenty of content to explore.
