The most popular queer books of 2025

Queer books are for stories that do not fit a tidier label. Characters and authors here resist categories of gender and desire, and the writing is often as inventive as the lives it describes. Expect novels, essays and memoirs that are playful, political and proudly themselves. This list shows the ones first published in 2025.
