Peek Inside Our TBR: The Must-Reads That Have Apropos Books Buzzing
We talk a big game about book deals and reader recs—but what about the books on our TBR?
The ones we’ve been eyeing, stacking, and stubbornly refusing to read until “just the right moment”? Yeah, this one’s for those titles.
The Apropos TBR isn’t just a pile.
It’s a mood board.
A warning sign.
A chaotic reflection of everything we’re craving right now, from morally gray monsters to emotionally complex messes who probably need therapy but will settle for a magical sword.
If you’re wondering what we’re reaching for between late-night scrolls and aggressive rewatching of period dramas—this is it.
What the Books on Our TBR Says About Us (Spoiler: We Have a Type)
Apparently, we’re suckers for war-torn worlds and reluctant heroes. The kind of protagonists who didn’t ask to be chosen, but are now leading rebellions, making questionable deals with gods, and discovering long-lost powers at very inconvenient times. We’re in our high-stakes, emotionally repressed era—and honestly? We’re thriving.
We’re also gravitating toward stories with teeth—sometimes literally. Whether it’s werewolves in the woods, witches with generational trauma, or cursed lovers navigating morally fraught decisions, our current vibe is: romantic, a little unhinged, and definitely not safe for emotionally stable readers.
Give Us That Genre Mashup Chaos
Historical fiction with horror? Sci-fi with soul? Epic fantasy with a side of heartbreak? We’re here for the genre-blenders—the books that refuse to fit neatly into one category and make our brains light up like a neon “Buy Now” button. This list is full of cross-genre magic: part love story, part war cry, part fever dream.
And while we’re not ready to commit to any one lane (commitment issues, hi), it’s clear we want stories that do more than entertain—they need to wreck us just a little.
The Books We’re Reaching For
After much internal debate (and external enabling), we’ve narrowed our current TBR stack down to the stories we just can’t stop thinking about. Some are longtime recommendations finally getting their moment. Others are newer obsessions we’re dying to dive into. Either way, these are the ones calling our name the loudest—and let’s just say, our reading future looks wildly dramatic.
