For the past few months, I’ve been diligently researching the most anticipated queer books out in 2026, adding to my ever-growing spreadsheet. (All Access members, you’ll be getting a sneak peek of that soon.) These lists can be found on Goodreads, old-school book blogs, Instagram posts, and even the parts of the internet I don’t dare to tread, like TikTok and X. You’re on your own there.
None of these—not even my spreadsheet—is complete. There are simply too many queer books coming out to list them all, especially when it comes to self-published books. (Trying to sift through those has really demonstrated how much AI has flooded the space.)
So, I thought I’d share some of these lists with you! I also have some lists wrapping up the best queer books of 2025.

As a bonus for All Access members, here are 30 queer books out this week, including the queer workplace found family fantasy City of Others by Jared Poon, the Killing Eve-esque thriller You’ll Never Forget Me by Isha Raya, and the transmasculine memoir in essays Mega Milk: Essays on Family, Fluidity, Whiteness, and Cows by Megan Milks.
