Fall is the biggest season in publishing, and most of those haven’t been publicized yet.
I’m always interested in which queer books interlude through to the mainstream reading world, so in addition to reading dozens of lists of upcoming queer books, I’ve also combed through six of the biggest mainstream lists of most-anticipated books of 2025 and pulled out the queer books I spotted. I used lists from Book Riot (naturally), Goodreads, Time, Vulture, Lit Hub, and Barnes & Noble (Fiction, Nonfiction, YA).
