One of the things I write about consistently for Our Queerest Shelves is new queer book releases. To keep track of them, I note upcoming releases in a spreadsheet, which has grown significantly over the years. I’ve spent the last month trying to update it with 2026 queer books as gathered from dozens of lists across the internet. This isn’t a complete accounting of the year in LGBTQIA+ books, but it’s a start!
All Access members, I’m giving you a snapshot of the spreadsheet as it appears right now. (My version is constantly being updated.) As always, it’s organized by release date, title and author, identity, and genre. This time, I’ve also added a Keywords column, which is a grab bag of terms I might want to search later, like “witches,” “ADHD,” or “retelling.” I hope it’s helpful!
All Access members, read on for a link to the spreadsheet.
