Olivia (elven) Found on Tumblr:

I have launched a new version of my queer reading list. This is a list of sci-fi and fantasy books that have significant queer representation of some form. The new version of list lets you look for specific types of representation.

On the left hand side, there’s a list of books with their cover images.

On the right hand side, there’s a set of filters. So if you’re looking for books with, for example, trans characters, you can select the filter and see just the list of books with that representation.

The filters on the first page are quite broad. So underneath the list there are arrows that let you navigate through other pages which are for these broad categories of representation and let you filter it down further.

So if you’re specifically looking for a book with a demi-sexual protagonist, you could go to page 6, which is the page for asexual spectrum representation, select the filter for demi-sexual protagonist, and see… well, the one book on the list that meets that set of filters.

Which brings me to my next point: this list needs more books on it. I’m looking for people to help contribute to this list. If you read sci-fi or fantasy books with queer representation and you would be willing to add those books to this list, please let me know. I’m working on a way to make it so that anyone can add books to the list, but at the moment, I’d need to give you access to add to it.

I want this to be a useful resource for people who are looking for more queer representation, and for authors who write queer SF&F to showcase those books. Please check it out and let me know what you think.
