My Top 6 Queer Books of 2024 (so far)

[@kizzyneetyan]

The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett is a murder mystery fantasy that's just casually gay and I LOVED it so much

[@Lillyjoy]

My favs from this year are Bookshops & Bonedust and Basil & Oregano, both books are so heartwarming and so good! I also loved Hooky which has a queer romance but it’s not as prominent as the other two

[@miyayume_eclectic_dream]

The moment I read the blurb I knew I would love Most Ardently! Such a lovely book.

[@lisathebookcat4669]

I finally read Role Playing by Cathy Yardley and I'm so mad I waited so long. It had such good Demi rep (TW for phobia). Also I loved Skater Boy as well

[@zlicko7735]

The book that I am reading right now is sapphic and ace. It's called Someone You Can Build a Nest In. I must also mention that it's weird - that's the best I can describe it. WEEEIRRD

[@AModelWhosRead]

This is on my TBR! Love a weird book 👌

[@frannook]

ohmygoodness why haven't i found your channel any sooner when trying to find other queer booktubers is literally what i try to do everyday *sigh* anyways. GREAT RECS. the first book you talked about made me think of one I'm currently reading called Cascade Failure by LM Sagas and it is SO flippin good and I have a feeling you'd absolutely LOVE IT :D

[@AModelWhosRead]

Ahh thank you and welcome! :) I've heard of CF but haven't looked into it, something I'll have to do later 👀

[@OddNiffer]

I read Winters Orbit by Everina Maxwell for the first time this year and what I was expecting to be shallow fun queer romance turned into exciting sci-fi political drama with a really heart-felt slow burn romance. AUGH IT WAS SO GOOD.

[@jefferyjones8399]

[@natcatsbookishcafe3799]

I added a couple of these to my never ending TBR lol. I’ve been continuing to love the Monsterous series by Lily Mayne 😈. Got to love gay monster romance set in a post apocalyptic American where monsters and their boyfriends take on the US Military 🎉

[@nikolahetn944]

My favourite queer books I've read this year are: 💙In Other Lands - this book owns my heart, can't recommend it enough, Elliot is now one of my all time favourite characters I love him so so much 😭 ❤You Should Be So Lucky - this is perfection, I cried from happiness reading this book, so warm and wholesome 🥲 also I loved the themes and how they were handled, another addition to my all time favourite books 🤎The Space Between Worlds - so awesome both in concept and execution, I did not see the plot twists coming at all, loved it 🖤All Systems Red and Artificial Condition - Murderbot is such a great character, can't wait to read next novella in the series, I had the best time 🧡She Who Became The Sun - I could not stop reading, the writing is beautiful and it has great characters and commentary

[@KadyAz17]

My favorite queer reads this year so far: Night's Edge by Liz Kerin (lesbians and dealing with a vampiric virus in society) Trouble by Lex Croucher (a hilarious historical romance with bisexual and trans rep) The Prospects by KT Hoffman (a gay baseball romance with a trans main character) You Again by Kate Goldbeck (two very messy bisexuals fall into friendship, then love)

[@celiairis3894]

I would definitely recommend Pet by Akwaeke Emzi! It's a great ya book with a trans protagonist! It's about a girl who finds out that her supposedly utopian society has a drak secret. It's really great and has a prequel which I think is good but mot as great. I would loon up the trigger warnings as it does drive into some upsetting topics. But I think it's 100 per cent a great read!

[@Realmisskrose]

I love Midnight Ruin so much

[@zachreads]

"Iron Widow but bleaker and gayer" guess what got added to my tbr! Here's some of mine -A Marvelous Light by Freya Marske (+ the other two in the series) -Taken by the Witch Queen by Luna Fury (my new fav smut author/series) The Witch's Heart by Genevieve Gornichec (5☆, made me cry, but most of the gay is in the second half) -Dragonfall by L.R Lam (best gender fluid society) -The Midnight Girls by Alicia Jasinska -The Hidden Guardian by J.D.L Rosell Happy Pride!!! 🌈 🌈 🌈 and happy birthgay!!!
