Recs if you like How to Fake It in Society...

We should all be reading queer, all year, but this list is full of upcoming queer books of all makes and models coming out in 2026. If you have a rec to add, just please keep in mind we’re looking for 2026 releases!

romance releases i’m looking forward to

Shamelessly yoinked from a certain other reading app that shall not be named... this is a list of recently published (2025-2026) LGBTQ+ fiction across a spectrum of genres and identities!

(Disclaimer: I haven't read most of these, but so many compelling covers made me want to save them all in a list to continue referencing into the future.)

Queer people in waistcoats, petticoats, top hats, expensive gowns falling in love in really big houses, between balls and banquets.

Romance novels with a short king MC.

books i'm interested in that are LGBTQ and historical, realistic or modern fiction, or non fiction.
