The To-Be-Read, Spoons Willing Pile

Always open to recommendations (LGBT sci-fi/fantasy is my favorite, doesn’t have to be romance-heavy. As is anything with actually diverse/inclusive casts – including disabled/ill characters, preferably who don’t die – with a lack of tragedy fixation on any of the above. I think everyone knows what that means/the difference. Ownvoices are preferred).

Recs are especially welcome for short fiction, with which I’m not as familiar. Short fiction is also more doable, because of my (pretty bad) health and energy levels. Those will obviously go faster, hence my book pile backlog; it’s built up over a while. These aren’t in any real order (except for Ariah, because I’ve been meaning/wanting to do this for so long!).
