Recs if you like Still Into You...

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!

these book titles are all recognizable song lyrics! (though some have adjusted a word or two)

as always, suggestions are welcome!

The title speaks for itself 🤝

Will be updated as the year goes on ✨ open to comments ✨

Spicy romance books with cute, illustrated covers that don't look nearly as spicy as they are 🌸

This list is based on the covers featured here, so it may be a little biased. Recommendations are welcome!💌

NB: Includes different spice levels and some LGBTQ+ romances❤️‍🔥

Romance novels where the MCs are an MF couple that is straight-presenting, but one or both is/are queer

Wanting to read something new in fantasy or romance that isn’t going to make you wait around in agony for a sequel? I’ve got you.
