Little Mushroom by Shisi; translated by Xiao
Post-apocalyptic and dystopian setting for a very slow burn m/m romance. Main character is not quite human. 🍄
This duology is definitely on the darker side, but at every turn, I was so hooked on finding out what would happen next.

Game Changers series by Rachel Reid
My introduction to m/m hockey romance, and still my favorite. Game Changer is the one I have re-read the most, but The Long Game is my favorite.

To the Moon and Back by N.R. Walker
Ultimate comfort read for me. Male nanny x single dad romance. This book will not be for everyone; it's very fluffy, very cheesy, and baby-heavy. When I'm in need of some smiles, I always go back to this book.

Falling Down by Eli Easton
This m/m romance novel shows a glimpse into the bleakness of struggling with suicidal ideation. Josh's character arc and the romance between him and Mark is so heartwarming.

Wrath by Ellis James
A heartbreakingly beautiful m/m romance that covers topics of familial and religious abuse, queer awakening, forbidden love, and some sports to top it off.

Angels Before Man by Rafael Nicolás
I don't think I need to say anything about this book. It's truly a queer classic from our era in my eyes. Read it if you haven't; it will change you.

Rowan Blood (series) by Kellen Graves
My introduction to indie books and a beautiful fantasy world rich with magic, romance, and queerness. The latest installment, Herald of the Witch's Mark, is my favorite thus far, and has made this series a definite favorite of mine.

The Way of Kings/The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson
I haven't finished this series, but the first two books have earned it a spot as a favorite of mine. Kaladin is probably my favorite book character ever.

Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman
This book may be controversial, but I will always adore it for the depiction of Elio's coming-of-age as a queer person. Reading this while soaking up the summer sun created a feeling I'll never know again
