Anticipated Queer Books for 2022 – part 2

Welcome to part 2! There are so many queer books coming out that I had to make this list into two parts. I’m sorry if this list is hurting your bank account! But remember there’s always libraries you can borrow from!

This list is going to be a bit more YA based, I know there was a couple on part 1 but young adult will feature heavily on this list. Because even though I turn 30 this year I still read YA.

And queer YA is another level! There’s some fantastic books

So let’s talk about some more brilliant queer books shall we?

And they Lived… by Steven Salvatore. Look at the cover! And I believe this one is set in college so maybe a little older than YA but it’s still a highly anticipated read for me. I’m so excited for it! It’s out March 8th.

Kiss & Tell by Adib Khorram. I loved Darius The Great Is Not Okay soooo much so this is highly anticipated for me. A queer relationship in boyband. That’s it. That’s all I need to know! That plus Adib beautiful writing is all I need for perfection. It’s out March 22nd.

This Is Why They Hate Us by Aaron H. Aceves. I’m not 100% sure what this one is about but look at the cover! A lot of these books are queer and that’s all I need to know. It’s out May 24th!

Blaine for The Win by Robbie Couch. A queer Legally Blonde. You don’t need to tell me anymore! It’s preordered, I want it in my hands. I’m really looking forward to this one. I know I’ve said that about a lot of these books but that’s why they are on the list! It’s out April 22nd.

Café con Lychee by Emery Lee. And another one I’m excited for. This one feature trans rep and I’m already in love with this book. Especially because of the cover. Also I work in a cafe so I’ll be manifesting this to happen to me. It’s out May 4th.

Out of the Blue by Jason June. A mermaid love story. You don’t need to tell me anything else! Look at that cover! It’s preordered. I want it. I want the trans rep. The gender queer rep. Thank you. It’s out May 4th.

A Little Bit Country by Brian D. Kennedy. You best believe the county music lover in me is highly anticipating this book. I can’t wait. It’s out May 31st.

Part 1 and part 2 don’t really feature anything for the second half of the year. So maybe I’ll make another list for that later in the year.

Also if you’re looking for these books in hardback like me (I’m from the uk and they are hard to find) I’ve managed to preorder these from Blackwells that manage to get a lot of the American hardbacks in! Just a little tip for you!

Are you interested in any of these? Let me know.

Until the next review
