Recs if you like Our Work Is Everywhere: An Illustrated Oral History of Queer and Trans Resistance...

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.

Memoirs, histories, guidebooks. Real life narratives told through creative expression.

So much LGBTQ+ history! A lot of this is centered in the US, though there are some exceptions and I'm trying to grow it all the time. Note that I have an HIV / AIDS list that a lot of queer history, especially around the 80s + 90s. So check that one out for more

Lgbtq+ comics and graphic novels to read all year long

These are nonfiction recs that may be good for people just wanting to dip their toes into nonfiction. A lot of this focuses on shorter or graphic nonfiction, but also ones with interesting writing or really accessible explanations. Depending on what you read, some of these may be better for you than others. So, take a look and you should be able to find something good!
