Recs if you like Blood Bound...

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

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!

Here's every book so far from BOTM's monthly shortlist since February 2015 for anyone who wants to read them all like I do!

Hii, everyone ♡ I am a very big fan of the booktuber @caricanread so I thought I would make a list of all the books she has read this year! ✰

Just gathering amazing authors that sit down to write in Europe (EU or not) and hopefully get some recs from you 🥰

All the 2026 BOTM monthly, add on, and Allurial titles

A list of all the books featured as monthly picks for the Illumicrate Sub. ◽️ Not Including sequels or special editions outside of the monthly sub.◽️ I will include new books about a month after release to avoid spoilers.

All the Illumicrate, Afterlight, Evernight, Starbright, etc. picks for 2026

Books with average 4 or more 🌟 ratings and at least 100 points of engagement (reviews & posts) in Pagebound from the Master Fantasy and Romantasy List by readandtellstories. For those times when I want to find highly rated fantasy/romantasy books that aren't necessarily indie, self-pub. Books in a series will include only the first book. I can neither confirm nor deny the right for these books to have these ratings. This list will be updated monthly based on outputs from prime list.

For the Fae and Flame Society book club, often our seasonal book bingo includes a square for 'a debut author.' Here is a list of books from debut authors published in 2025 and 2026.
