I tried to include as many different genres as possible here. You’ll find fantasy and memoirs, essay collections and short stories, mysteries and romance, contemporary novels and historical ones, YA and adult books. I did include a few buzzy titles, but I mostly focused on books from indie presses that don’t get as much attention as the bigger-name releases. What better way to celebrate Pride than to preorder a whole bunch of fabulous queer books? You can support queer authors and fill your June TBR with fantastic queer lit all at the same time. Let’s do this.

Looking for more upcoming queer books? Danika made a list of 2021 Black LGBTQ Books, which includes several June releases not on this list. And there are two more June releases on this list of Upcoming LGBTQ+ YA Romance. I told you there were a lot! If you want to catch up on queer books from the first half of 2021, try these LGBTQ+ debuts, these 12 books featuring queer women, and this list of new and upcoming queer graphic novels and memoirs.
