Recs if you like How We End...

Reading suggestions for the Trans Rights Readathon! (Any year of course). Books with trans characters of any label (or any non-cis gender identity) by trans/non-cis authors. I have not read all the books in this list. Feel free to name your fave books by trans authors in the comments!

Fiction reads with trans masc characters and/or by trans masc authors

See my trans Rights readathon suggestions masterlist for more trans reads! 🏳️‍⚧️

(Under construction 🏗 🚧 many more books to be added! Suggestions welcome!)

Works in the speculative, fantasy, science fiction, and horror genres by authors who are not cisgender! Two spirit, nonbinary, trans, genderfluid, and other gender diverse authors count!

Books with protagonists (or love interests) who are sexually or romantically attracted to people regardless of their sex or gender.

Sometimes the word is used on the page, and someone times it has been inferred. Just trying my best.

If you ask someone what apocalyptic fiction they've read involving zombies, there's a fair chance most or even all of that list will have been written by cis men, because they're the books that get the most publication & promotion in the genre

My hope is that this list will help someone find a new favourite author! ♡

Sister list to The End & After - No Cis-Male Authors

Suggestions so welcome, particularly for trans, enby & other authors of marginalised genders

forever chasing the high of the first three seasons of The Walking Dead 😭 books featuring zombies & the zombie apocalypse.

psa: I do not agree with Nicki minaj’s political views

as always, taking suggestions!

Queer sci-fi 💫 (Not always in space, I think I've covered most sci-fi subgenres)

all things fungal horror ❤︎⁠ there are a few mushroom and cottagegore lists around, but i wanted to make a comprehensive guide to the genre! suggestions welcome :)

Getting a bit fed up of the amount of gay men written by straight women. Please recommend me more books!

Queer and trans stories in, or after, the zombie apocalypse!

First of a series only

Sister list to: Apocalyptic, but Make it Queer

As always, suggestions incredibly welcome!

☠

Note: Not specifically a list of good LGBTQ+ representation (though many of them absolutely are, and many are written by queer and/or trans authors!). But I have not read all of them (yet), so this list doesn't inherently imply my recommendation, as such.

Ace spectrum representation in fiction! We've got a little of everything - aroace, grayace, demi...my main condition for this list is that the ace character has to explicitly be asexual.

Recommendations welcome!

This is a collection of queer books written by bipoc authors that fall into the genre of fantasy and/or sci-fi (supernatural horror is also included)

(If a book is part of a series I only put the first book because otherwise it gets messy very quickly)

Recommendations are always welcome!!!

literally just give me yearning at the end of the world

a definitely not exhaustive list of apocalypse books with queer characters

{ recommendations welcome }

I started this list based on feedback from the community, my sincere gratitude for all the feedback 🙂‍↕️ I got so many replies to a request, I thought they need to be documented for everyone. Will be adding books I read; more recs are always welcome as well. Trans, enby, anyone not cis writing horror stories about not-cis MCs may join these ranks.

Stories across genres and age groups that prominently feature trans & non-binary characters of color.

Recommendations welcome!

✦ I have not read all of these books - if you notice anything that seems to be mis-labeled/mis-placed on this list, please let me know! ✦

Novels, novellas, and short stories (and the occasional comic) featuring trans characters (including non-binary and all terms under the umbrella), written by indie authors. All genres, but many lean erotic and/or horror 🔞

Recommendations welcome!

Much of the Zombie genre is set in the US. This list collates zombie fiction from all over the world. Different people groups. Different mindsets. Different access to weapons & attitudes towards those weapons. A different focus on how to survive The End

Sister list to: The End of the World & After - But Not US-Centric

Fictional settings allowed. Books may cross borders, spending time in the US. Allowance made for US indigenous authors

First of a series only

Suggestions so welcome!

Zombie reading list packed with outbreaks, survival, and the occasional accidental bite. Even the apocalypse has its awkward moments.
