Putting together a list of the books that have helped shaped my queer journey felt nearly impossible. Over the years I've collected a list of books that have helped me accept who I am, broken my heart, turned me on, and in moments have been exactly what I needed to put myself back together.
While this list does not include a lot of the classics, it does include recent novels with LGBTQ+ representation. I hope you find something here that helps you the way they've helped me.
At Only Humxn, we’ve embraced the X in our name as a powerful symbol of inclusivity and empowerment. By replacing the gendered “man” in “human,” we reclaim the term to reflect a broader spectrum of identities that exist beyond traditional boundaries. The X serves as a neutral gender marker, much like the ones used on IDs, allowing us to honor and recognize all individuals—regardless of gender. This choice embodies our commitment to creating a welcoming space where everyone can feel seen, heard, and valued, paving the way for authentic connections and conversations. Join us as we redefine what it means to be humxn, together.
