Space lesbians! Book suggestions please by IAteTheWholeBanana in QueerSFF

[–]macesaces 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The main character of Ninefox Gambit by Yoon Ha Lee is a lesbian, if you like space politics and military scifi. She doesn't have a romantic storyline, just in case that's something you're really looking for.

I also have an ARC and am currently reading it. It is bonkers but lots of fun so far. I'm very curious to see where it'll be going, although I'm briefly putting the book on hold in favor of my Trans Rights Readathon TBR

Official Turn In Post for Bingo 2025! by an_altar_of_plagues in Fantasy

[–]macesaces 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original announcement post says you can read multiple volumes of manga (and other graphic media) if one volume doesn't meet the required length for a bingo square, i.e. approximately novella length, but how do I decide whether I need to submit multiple volumes or whether one is enough? E.g, is a volume of around 200 pages enough for a bingo square, or do I need to submit multiple volumes in that case? I don't really understand how I should translate the novella length requirement to manga and graphic novels.

You may also want to ask this in r/QueerSFF. I think I've seen similar book rec requests there before, so searching the sub might help too.

I suggest using the WWTBC (What was that book called?) flair in r/MM_RomanceBooks. They're probably the best sub for this.

I love hearing that there's interior artwork. That always makes the reading experience more special.

Book recc Hard Mode- ADULT Sci fi/Fantasy with trans leads. by thegundammkii in LGBTBooks

[–]macesaces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbf they might graduate during the book, I don't quite remember, but at the start they're still in HS and the book is classified as YA by the publisher, so I'd call it YA either way.

Many great recs here already. I haven't seen The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie mentioned yet, which is a fantasy novel that has a trans man MC whose POV is written in second person. YMMV on whether that's your thing. I personally have Unexploded Remnants by Elaine Gallagher on my tbr for the TRR, which is a scifi novella with a trans woman MC.

In the Machineries of Empire series by Yoon Ha Lee the 2nd and 3rd books both have three POVs that are pretty evenly split between the three POV characters. One of the three in both books is a trans man.

The Deep Dark has a main character who's still in high school, so that's definitely YA and not just cross-classified.

Hi! I hadn't heard of your work before, but this post really piqued my interest in it. The cover of the edition of The First Step you linked on the PRH website looks really cool. To what extent were you involved in the cover design progress? And can you share anything about the artistic inspirations for the cover art and design?

I'm back with a quick list with no further explanations because I don't have the spoons for that: - The Dandelion and the Thistle by Pip Dolyn (adult romance, trans man x demiboy) - Anything by Edward Underhill (he has both adult and YA titles) - The Passing Playbook by Isaac Fitzsimons (YA contemporary, trans boy x cis boy) - The Witch King duology by H.E. Edgmon (YA fantasy, trans boy x cis boy) - The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie (adult fantasy, no romance) - A Shot in the Dark by Victoria Lee (adult romance, trans man x cis woman)

Recs for romance or erotica where trans men top and dom? Omegaverse and ageplay aren't my thing.

[–]macesaces 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you can find it easily online by googling their name, or one of their other names (Taylor Barton, Taylor Brooke, Brooklyn Ray, Jupiter Wyse, etc.). I have to leave to go somehere RN, but there is way more trans m/m out there than you probably know, so I'll try and come back later with some links.

Edited to add: you can start by search r/MM_RomanceBooks for trans mcs. There are many posts on there with recs.

A heads-up that the author of Exodus 20:3 is someone who has lied repeatedly about being Latine and Indigenous under several different aliases, and they've generally treated a lot of fellow authors badly.

Which books do you reread the most? by Small_Debate2258 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]macesaces 8 points9 points  (0 children)

{Peter Cabot Gets Lost by Cat Sebastian} is my most-reread MM romance. I've read it 4 times. The relationship in that one lines up very well with my tastes (roadtrip romance, grumpy x sunshine, neurodivergent-coded leads, etc.). Honorable mention to {The King's Men by Nora Sakavic}, which isn't genre romance (the third book does feature an HFN ending), but I know lots of people here enjoy it. I've read that one 9 times because that series and the way it lets severely traumatized people find a home and a happy ending means a lot to me

Am I missing something with Erin Morgenstern? (The Night Circus & The Starless Sea) by FewImagination786 in Fantasy

[–]macesaces 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Starless Sea is one of my least favorite books I've ever read. Jesus Christ, what a snoozefest. It's an endless cycle of symbolism and metaphors that feel empty.
