LGBTQ+ Reviews

Reviews with an asterisk (*) will feature Ad: Affiliate Links, which means if you make a purchase through them, I'll make a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Here you find my reviews of LGBTQ+ fiction and non-fiction, and reviews of books by LGBTQ+ authors (whose characters may be cishet). Please follow the link for my reviews of cishet books.

In alphabetical order of authors' surnames. Where multiple series are set in the same world, books will be listed in chronological order of that world's timeline - also the order they should be read in.

When it comes to cross over fantasy, what is listed as YA and what is listed as Adult Fantasy is down to what it's published as.
