What are the must-read LGBTQ fantasy books?Answer

Few genres have embraced sexuality like Fantasy. Whether it's friends to lovers, forbidden relationships, or happily ever after – LGBTQ+ storylines can explore cultures and societies in a way that cisgender relationships can't. What books standout to you with gay, bi, trans or queer characters?

The Magpie Lord

Why this book?

I loved the world building mostly and the twist right at the start. It's m/m and a series so you can keep going!

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

Why this book?

I mean I love this book so deeply it's one of my all time favs. I'm also a pansexual gal and rep for bi or pan characters is a lot harder to find. I loved the setup, the story and the writing!

Be prepared to cry your eyes out. The MC is a trans teen boy, it's a story of acceptance and love and it's amazing!

Why this book?

Really cool magic system honestly! It's a m/m and I love their dynamic and how things play out. I believe the next one might be f/f in the series I haven't read it yet.
