Recs if you like First Tilt...

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!

Romantasy and romantic/erotic fantasy reads starring queer characters! (Recs are welcome, but I'd like to encourage uplifting queer authors first and foremost! For series, I'll just put book 1 unless they can be read as standalones!)

who doesn’t love a throuple romance? so long as there’s three people, no matter the configuration, and it’s at least a little gay, i’m putting it on this list. if you have any suggestions, please let me know!

Mostly gay books that are dark or bloody or both! (Not finished yet!)
