Recs if you like The Lost Story...

While it is highly celebrated in June, the Queer community exists all year long and this working list is created to support/encourage others to read more literature written by & represented people within said community.

Bibliophilia at its best - books about books, readers, libraries, bookstores!

Speculative fiction (fantasy, horror, sci-fi, etc.) about, or prominently featuring, ace characters. This includes demisexual characters and ace-spec characters as well! 🖤🤍💜 corrections & recommendations welcome <3

Note: used to be titled “For My Fellow Garlic Bread Lovers” but I worried it would cause confusion or not enough clarity on what the list was about (still keeping the bread emoji tho)

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!

A masterlist of standalone adult fantasy novels (no novellas).

Always looking for recs!

Portal fantasy (middle grade through adult lit with maybe some sci-fi too).

Because sometimes you just want to read about characters literally escaping their world or temporarily exploring other ones since you’re stuck here.

(Please note: series will only contain the earliest applicable volume even if more/all are the same to avoid clutter. Also, open to recs!)

unicorn books for all ages

books i've read or want to read where the atmosphere is just as important as the plot! hidden magic, found families, and stories that feel like you're right there in the setting.

Books about bookstores, libraries, or other books.

My unread list of GCA 2024

it's queer and it's all pretty horrorble

There is queer books that have fantasy elements, and there are fantasy books with queer characters. This is a list of that first kind!

Hey, was that door always there? What could be hiding behind it? Should you open it? Adventure may await you if you dare!

'Door' is loosely used for some of these, but the result is the same: the world you find yourself in is not the same as the one you are from.

Suggestions appreciated! 💫
