How the sorting works

A short confession. A Court of your own.

It's a ceremony, not a form. Two minutes, five honest answers — and you leave knowing what kind of reader you are, with a shelf to match.

  1. Confess your taste

    Five questions, no wrong answers. Shadow or light, the ending you crave, the grimoire that calls your name.

  2. Learn your reader type

    The realm names your Court — Flames, Desire, Shadows, or Dreams — and tells you exactly why: the tropes you chase, the endings you need.

  3. Get your shelf, free

    Walk into a library filtered to your Court's taste — books, tropes, and fellow yearners — with your first month of Yearn on us.

The Courts

Four Courts. One is already yours.

Every Court comes with its own reading taste, its own people, and its own opinions about shadow daddies. Whichever one claims you, its shelf is waiting.

Fierce. Loyal. Unstoppable.

Court of Flames

You love hard and burn bright. When the people you love are threatened, you become the storm. Flames readers want the high-stakes, sword-in-hand, world-on-fire romances where passion and power collide.

  • Fierce
  • Protective
  • Bold
  • Passionate

Clever. Secretive. Watchful.

Court of Shadows

You see what others miss and keep your cards close. Truth is your power and mystery is your comfort. Shadows readers want the morally-grey, secret-keeping, enemies-with-tension romances where nothing is quite what it seems.

  • Cunning
  • Perceptive
  • Guarded
  • Mysterious

  • All-in
