Recs if you like Boyfriend Material...

Just because you are queer doesn't mean you have your life together

MLM enemies to lovers (please suggest more I need them haha)

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

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

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.

these MCs have trauma they need to work through: parental neglect, absent father, loss of a parent, emotional / physical / psychological ab*se, divorce. this list may be books that you want to read or those that you want to avoid - whichever applies to you, its here nonetheless. bonus points if the MCs partner/s help them work through their trauma.

🚨 please check your triggers 🚨

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

finding love in a big city can be just as fun as finding love in a small town! I love small town romances, but as a girl from a big city, I want to give big city romances their time to shine ✨

here’s a list of books where our main characters live in a big city and fall in love there. cities can be real (London, Paris, New York, LA, Tokyo, etc.) or fictional (Minas Tirith, King’s Landing, Gotham, Bon Temps, etc.)!

as always, taking suggestions!!

I've been reading genre romance for going-on-30 years now and I wanted to highlight some of the books that I've enjoyedbut that have either faded into obscurity or never made it big to begin with. Be Aware! Some of these books are going to be pretty dated! Please check the original publishing dates so you know what you're getting into. I'm also happy to provide any CWs/TWs/heat levels for any book listed if you ask in the comments! (Note: I've also included some romantic fantasy/scifi in this list.)

• would love any and all suggestions *

my list of books on 2+ quests, continued!

Book that feature prominent character(s) who's on asexual/aromantic spectrum. I've read most of these.

Pls comment recs!!

Happy Valentine's Day! Have a huge pile of romantic queer novels. (Note that some of these are more "queer books that include a romance" and others are definitely more "this is a romance novel.") (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators!)
