    Book Releases: July-December 2021 Books With Bi Protagonists

    24 July, 2021

    A companion post to the one from the beginning of the year. Over 100 books with canon bisexual and/or pansexual protagonists. Or love interests. Or really major side characters.

    My guidelines for choosing books to include in this post were pretty simple: either a character just uses the label or the text makes it abundantly clear that they’re bi/pan. (As you can imagine, not a lot of fantasy or historical books use modern labels.) If I missed anything that you think should be on the list, please let me know in the comments!

    Like always on this blog, the rainbow emoji indicates that the book is by an LGBT author. 🌈

    Book Releases: 2021 Sapphic Releases (July to December)

    20 July, 2021

    Hopefully July is treating you all well so far (I’m sat here, watching torrential rain)! Today’s post is one that, with luck, you’ve all been anticipating. Anna posted about YA releases on Friday, and now I’m posting about the sapphic releases of the second half of 2021 (bi releases will be up in a few days too, so keep an eye out!). Not all of these have sapphic main characters, but they do feature (to the best of my knowledge) somewhat prominent sapphic characters at least.

    You can, of course, find January to June’s releases here.

    Undoubtedly I have missed books (we all know that, as soon as I post this, there’ll be five more to add, minimum), so I’ll be checking back on the post pretty regularly to add more.

    Book Releases: LGBT YA Books of July-December 2021

    17 July, 2021

    Hopefully I got y’all used to those YA posts enough that you were actually waiting for this one. If not, just don’t tell me. But if yes, sorry for the wait and enjoy! There are over 105 LGBT YA books here, surely you will find at least a dozen or two to fall in love with.

    And like always, a rainbow emoji indicates that the book is by an LGBT author.

    Book Releases: July 2021

    30 June, 2021

    It’s the end of June, which means that it’s that time again! Sadly, unlike the past couple of months, July’s releases don’t break 100 (or sort of gladly, if you’re me, and having to write up the post), but there are some truly exciting releases here.

    Also exciting is our new layout for the posts! Instead of just giving you a long list with dates, we’ve split the list into genres, so you can just search for whichever genre you want to read. (And see just how few there are for some… 😒)

    As ever, you can find all our previous releases posts here and the rainbow emoji indicates an author who id’s as LGBT.

    If you think that a lot more LGBT books come out during Pride than all the other months, you would be correct! And this post is a real-life proof. Took days to prepare, but here we are: 166 LGBT books out this June!

    And yes, you read that right: one hundred and sixty six. Surely, you will find something for yourself here.

    Book Releases: Ownvoices M/M books of January-June 2021

    15 April, 2021

    Well, actually… the term ownvoices here is used very liberally. By that I mean you will find below books with gay main characters written by gay authors but sometimes it will be for example books with gay characters written by bi authors.

    Generally, though, novels with mlm characters by mlm authors. Achillean books by achillean authors, if you will. So while the label might not always 100% match between the author and the character, those are still books written by people who understand the experience.

    This is also why I opted out of using the rainbow emoji – everyone would get one anyways.

    My cat spent the day sunbathing, meanwhile I was putting together this post for y’all. Life is what it is. But in all seriousness, there are some fabulous books coming our way next month, so I hope you are all very excited! Surely everyone can find something out of over 100 titles…

    As always, a rainbow emoji next to an author indicates they’re LGBT – if you know I made any mistakes here, feel free to let me know. And if you need some more books, you can find all our previous releases posts here.

    There are over 70 songs by LGBT artists which came out in February. That I know of. I probably missed a bunch because I’m only one person. All of them are on the mix which you can find at the end of the post, as always, and ten of my absolute favourites are featured below. Enjoy!!

    Book Releases: March 2021

    27 February, 2021

    The worst* thing in the world is when your internet decides it’s going to be all buggy just as you’re working on a long post. But worry not! There was one winner here and that was ME. I defeated it, and thus can bring you today’s releases post, at the very early** time of 10pm.

    *It’s probably not.

    **It’s past my bedtime.

    Book Releases: January-June 2021 Books With Bi Protagonists

    14 February, 2021

    If you’ve followed our blog for a while, you know we like to make these releases posts and you also know that last year I’ve made two for books with bi and/or pan protagonists. So of course, here I am again, this year.

    Like before, I want to make clear that I tried my hardest to only include books where it’s very clear a character actually is bisexual (or pansexual), so that y’all get real rep. I also included books with bi and pan love interests, since those are usually rather big roles too. If I missed any books, because I only knew they feature a sapphic or achillean main character, please let me know!

    And like always, the rainbow emoji means the author is LGBT. Happy reading!
