Recs if you like Time to Shine...

Books about asexuality, be they non-fiction or novels. Everyone should read at least one asexual book from time to time.

Rep is usually the main character but sometimes side characters. 🏳️‍🌈 ♠️

Yes, demi folks are included on this list!

Intersectionality, baby! Disability includes many conditions, including - but not limited to - physical disabilities, chronic illnesses, psychiatric disabilities, sensory disabilities, and neurodivergence.

Looking for romance & erotica with 🍆-to-🍆 action? Glide into the world of frotting with these sexy queer reads!

Frotting—a form of frottage (the sexual act of rubbing one’s body on something) like tribbing & scissoring—involves two or more 🐔s rubbing together.

With this list, frolic into frotting across subgenres, from monster erotica to sports romance.

Have any recs, especially those featuring non-cisgender 🍆? Slide them into the comments!

There’s a crackling fire in the living room, a huge Christmas tree hung with lights and ornaments that shine with the reflection of the flames, and stockings hung from the mantle piece.

On the side table is a pile of books that tilts and turns, with many a punny title, and sweet queer cover.

Which one will you pick?🤶🎄🎅🎄🧑‍🎄🎄

Fiction and non-fiction in which a main character, prominent supporting character, or narrator is canonically/confirmed to be on the asexual (ace) spectrum.

📓Canon: Confirmed by either the text or original creator. (Subtextual/implied and circumstantial characters can be found on my other ace list)

❕Disclaimer: I have not read all these books. Please feel free to correct me in the comments if I have made a mistake in my research. Or if you have any new titles to recommend.

a mix of romance and romance-adjacent books starring bisexual main characters.

a collection of mm romances with himbos to giggle and kick your lil feet about

M/M hurt/comfort books - ones I’ve read plus ones recommended to me in the r/MM_RomanceBooks subreddit. Most of these have pretty intense hurt because that’s my jam

No, I haven't read all 50 books, but after reading dozens of popular but disappointing Christmas romances, I did my research. I'm sharing them here! They're well-rated on most sites, even if some don’t have their ratings on PB yet. I hope you make some new discoveries! 🎄 There's something for everyone. 🎁

Stories featuring demi leads, for those of us who live vicariously through our books✨

Demisexuality may not be explicitly disclosed or outright discussed in these books; I did my best to find stories with a main lead that presents as demi. Recs are encouraged!!

I went through all the books in the romance quest tab and here are all the ones where at least one of leads is in a relationship that is not "man and woman falling in love with each other." F/F, M/M, F/NBi, M/NBi, NBi/NBi, etc. Largely motivated by wanting to figure out which romance book quests I had a chance of getting the badges for. If I missed any, let me know. Quest specific info in the pinned comment.

fun/casual lgbt books. predominantly contemporary romance, trying to avoid lit fic. more for when i am looking for a palette cleanse.

Queer romance set in, on, around, or a stone's-throw-away-from a hockey rink. Pro-level, Ivy league or Rec-level, we don't discriminate here.

Whether it's about the romance or the sport or both, these books at the very least contain characters who practice and/or care about sports, are part of the LGBTQIA+ community, and possibly do the kissy
