Are there any books you started this year that you need to finish? Fun fact: I’ve had one book on my Currently Reading shelf on Goodreads since 2016, and that’s Chloe Plus Olivia: An Anthology of Lesbian Literature from the Seventeenth Century to the Present by Lillian Faderman. I haven’t picked it up in years, […]

Hell’s Heart by Alexis Hall (March 26, 2026) The successor to Gideon the Ninth‘s “lesbian necromancers in space” tagline is here: this is “sapphic Moby Dick in space!” You likely know Alexis Hall from their queer romances, like Boyfriend Material and A Lady for a Duke, and this is their sci-fi debut. As you’d expect […]

Last week, I shared a list of 650+ new queer books out in the first half of 2025. Now, I’m back with a spreadsheet of 250+ queer books coming out in the second half of the year. You might notice that those are pretty different numbers, and that’s because I usually learn about a lot […]
Every week for the Tuesday edition of Our Queerest Shelves, I put together a list of the most exciting new LGBTQ books out that week. Since I first started keeping track of upcoming LGBTQ new releases, this list has grown and grown. I follow a ton of different queer book blogs as well as Bookstagram, […]
