Recs if you like My Summer Of You: Vol. 1: The Summer Of You (My Summer Of You, #1)...

LGBT*+ graphic novels / comics / manga +

Fluff to smut, including 18+ etc aka not exclusive to anything specific other than being queer content (queer & queer-rep inclusive stories). I have read a good handful of the ones now at the bottom of the list. Includes intended middle-grade-ish-level youth content to adult audience content.

In progress / updated over time

(recs highly welcome) Attempting a highly exhaustive list.

I read so much BL manga on Libby. I thought it might be handy for people to have a list of what I've found. This includes explicit and non-explicit titles, and for series I only put in vol 1. Note that just because it's on Libby doesn't mean any specific library will have it, but you can pick "notify me" to let the library know you are interested, and they may acquire it! This list is only titles that (as far as I know) are from Japan and available in English (does not include manhua or manhwa).

yaoi with a physical english publication (includes manhwas and manhuas)

series only show first volume, i add books as a i read them

Will have you kicking your feet while you read and feeling butterflies through the pages 🫧 honorable mention to Yuri On Ice, Sk8 Infinity, & all the one shots and independent BL authors I couldn’t add

It's free comic books day, and we love comics and graphic novels every day, so here, have over 150 of our favorite graphic novels starring queer characters. (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

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!)

It's summer time in the northern hemisphere, which means R&R! For the southern hemisphere, it means cozy quiet time. Either way, this list is for you: low-stakes books, easy to pick up and put down, that make for enjoyable light reading! And of course, all have one or more queer characters. (This list is presented by Duck Prints Press, the indie publisher focused on publishing queer art and stories by queer creators! A group of us collaborate to make these recommendations.)

BL/yaoi manga/manhua/manhwa that is more wholesome than smutty. (Later volumes might include sex, but nothing too graphic)

Please comment your suggestions!

A list of green flag starter BL series (easy-to-follow plot, published, easy to find) for anyone wanting to get into the genre.

Most of these can be found on Libby or Comics Plus through your library.📚
