Recs if you like The Cutting Room...

Ceud mìle fàilte! ☆ Castles, Moors, Sìth and lochs and trees for as far as the eye can see! From fantasy, sci fi, crime, lit fic, horror, to non fiction, the Scots can do it all 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A small country with mighty good *authors and equally amazing books that deserve a spotlight!

*List features authors who are Scottish and other books set in Scotland by authors who may not be Scottish but are known for writing their books set in Scotland!

Books by queer Scottish writers.

I just finished who will be remembered here and am now keen to try out other works of the writers who collaborated. Thought I’d make a list in case someone else is interested :)

Suggestions for anything queer and Scottish are welcome, as are comments if you see something on the list you think doesn’t fit. I’m not Scottish and have read exactly none of these books, so I am obviously not the leading authority on anything.

Books by Scottish authors, across genres. (Will not be including any JKR.) Dark crime, litfic, a bit of satire, fantasy, scifi & speculative fiction. Trying to include a mix of everything in here.

Recommendations welcome. 🫶

more mystery stories with queer detectives/protagonists! cozies, noir, romance, paranormal, and sci-fi/fantasy mashups abound, but no thrillers, to my knowledge. tried not to repeat too many books also in the quest! series represented by #1

I thought it would be nice to have all of them in one long list.

This list will showcase the vast amount of Scottish Literature available, from the late medieval period to the present day. Partly inspired by there only being a few Scottish books on the 'British Classics' quest. Alba gu bràth!

(This is not exhaustive! Just 100 or so books that vaguely trace the development of Scottish Literature.)
