For various reasons, I’ve been trying to read more queer guys and transmasc writers of queer romance. As a Virgo, this necessitated I make a list. Anytime I make a list of books, I start wondering if it might be helpful to anyone else. So here ’tis.
MOST IMPORTANT CAVEAT: Massive apologies if I fucked up anyone’s identity. Let me know via the contact form or Twitter DM (@skyekilaen) and I will make corrections. I have marked BIPOC authors to make them easy to find, because I am particularly interested in reading their work and I hope others are too.
Inclusion on this list is not endorsement. Also, please do NOT assume every book by every one of these authors is a romance. Some authors write a mix of genres.
THANK YOU to everyone who has helped me expand and correct this list over time!
