For Disability December, here are a collection of queer books with disabled main characters, or by disabled authors.

🍂 I am utterly in love with this book and learning about Victorian flower language. 🍂

[noahhawthorneauthor]

I tried to narrow this down. I really did. Instead you get 54 of my favorite queer books, not including the series many of these are attached to.

Also some of these authors I've read their entire backlist or close to it, so I didn't include all of them. (Looking at you, Allie Therin, KJ Charles, Cat Sebastian, Lily Mayne, Foz Meadows, Tavia Lark)

Do we have any in common?
