Recs if you like Sasaki and Miyano, Vol. 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. Mostly serving as an all-in-one-spot list until Pagebound figures something out that works well for multi-genre/format exploration. :)

(recs highly welcome) Attempting a highly exhaustive list.

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

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

While mainly manga, also includes manwha and manhua

Mostly picked popular ones that are available on PB, and a few that are less known. Just a point to jump off from.

Some are ongoing. Some are smutty. No black or red flags.

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.)

curated list of my fave fiction that have authentic and in-depth portrayals of the bi+ experience—often through intersections with gender expansiveness and the aromantic/asexual spectrums—as attraction that transcends gender, and/or the unique simultaneous embodiment of homosexuality and heterosexuality.

Books that feature queer found or chosen families. For when you need that ragtag chaotic queer family energy

if only i knew straightness wasn’t a requirement in the kinds of books i loved. always updating with more! mostly angsty romance, instrospective scifi, cozy fantasy.

surprise! don’t panic! you’re queer!

my favourite manga with thoughtful queer rep!

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

Please comment your suggestions!

Romance stories (novels, manga, light novels, manhwa, manhua, danmei) set in the modern world. Can include fantasy or sci-fi elements. Spice varies (from none to very spicy).

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.📚

⚠️Varying levels of spice, but no spice between minors on this list⚠️

Action/Slice of Life/ Romance/Horror/Emotional/Hungry/Cute/Nonsense/Hot/Ugly/Sassy/Inspiring okay this is harder to describe. I honestly had trouble starting manga because THERES ALOT. Yet I will share wise advice that seem impossible but did help me. It's not about finding the type of genre, but it's finding your favorite things you enjoy in a creative world inside a manga.
