“Gay kids aren’t a “plot point” that you can play with. Gay kids are real, actual kids, teenagers, growing up into awesome adults, and they don’t have the books they need to reflect that. Growing up, my nose was constantly stuck in a book. Growing up as a lesbian, I was told over and over and over by the lack of gayness in said books that I did not exist. That I wasn’t important enough to tell stories about. That I was invisible. Why are we telling our kids this? Why are we telling them that they’re a minority, and they don’t deserve the same rights as straights, that they’re going to grow up in a world that despises them, that the intolerance of humanity will never change, that they’re worthless. It’s not true.” - Sarah Diemer
anyway i rlly wanted 2 make a list of some ~casually queer~ ya books aka ya books featuring lgbtq+ characters but without the Gay Angst™ these r not books about being queer & how hard™ it is, they r simply books about characters who just happen to be queer nbd
if u ever just wanna relax with a book that has decent lgbtq+ rep but where the narrative isn't dedicated to the characters coming out and/or their life in the closet and all that angsty stuff - here r some recs:
about a girl by sarah mccarry**
all for the game series by nora sakavic***
aristotle and dante discover the secrets of the universe by benjamin alire sáenz
ascension by jacqueline koyanagi**
ash by malinda lo**
as i descended by robin talley**
black iris by leah raeder**
boy meets boy by david levithan**
carry on by rainbow rowell**
coffee boy by austin chant*
colorblind by siera maley
every day by david levithan
everything leads to you nina lacour
fan art by sarah tregay
far from you by tess sharpe**
how to be a normal person by t.j. klune***
huntress by malinda lo
i'll give you the sun by jandy nelson
lies my girlfriend told me by julie anne peters
more than this by patrick ness
m or f? by lisa papademetriou & chris tebbetts
our own private universe by robin talley**
six of crows duology by leigh bardugo**
the broken forest by megan derr*
the cybernetic tea shop by meredith katz***
the dark wife by sarah diemer
the half bad trilogy by sally green**
the raven cycle by maggie stiefvater**
the song of achilles by madeline miller
you know me well by nina lacour & david levithan
*featuring trans character(s)
**featuring bi/pan character(s)
***featuring ace spec character(s)
some of these are pretty popular, others not that well known, but all r worth checking out imo – anyway, enjoy! x
& feel free to add more~
