Our top 10 q***r books for 2025 📚

This was a tough list to put together, there were so many wonderful books to enjoy. Every one of these really stayed with us long after finishing them - the yearning and obsession of first love, the downright creepy and the exploration of the legacy of WWII.

It’s such a joy to continue to champion these q***r stories and authors.

Did any of these make it into your top books for the year? Let us know 👇
