queer speculative short story collections
what it says on the tin! queer short story collections (including novels broken into standalone short stories) with a speculative bent; tinges of horror, fantasy, sci-fi, dystopia and the otherwise spiritual. attempting to keep the list quite curated, but recommendations are always welcome!

Saving this one!!
What a great list!! Another one that comes to mind is Reclaim the Stars: 17 tales across realms and space. I donāt think itās explicitly queer, but the majority of the stories so far (Iām about halfway through) feature queer/trans main characters.

ooh incredible! iād definitely consider that explicitly queer - i donāt think queerness needs to be a focal point for the representation to be legitimate/enriching! iāll look into it for sure
this list looks epic! especially my contributions but also yours
