Monster & Ghost by Himemiko Love it. Some people will not like it because the pacing is a little unusual, but anyone who can overlook that is in for a very heartwarming story about friendship and love. The art is amazing, and the plot keeps you at the edge of your seat #blmanga #boyslove #bookrec

Love Immortal by Kit Vincent So, would I recommend this book? Yes, to everyone who likes MCs who make stupid, rage-bait decisions because of love and people who like an autumnal book in a school setting. Or people who want to be mad at a book for a chance. 3 stars. #mmromance #vampirebook #booksky

I know that scholars think this is the great gay novel because the gay protagonist doesn’t die, but fucking hell. This book lies to you on the first page. It’s not a love story. It’s a story about obsession and self-hatred and rape. I hate this one with a passion. #queerbook #classiclit #IhateIt

🌈📚 MM Book Recs: Books I Didn’t Know I Needed This Year. DoppelBänger by W. H. Lockwood. Release Date: February 5. Not So Lazy Boy (Shift or Not, Book 1) by Stormi Reed (R.S. McKenzie). Release date: February 15. #mmormance #gayromance #queerromance #booksky #romancelandia #readqueerallyear

Pink Heart Jam by Shikke Despite this starting with a sexual encounter that you pay for, this is surprisingly heartfelt and cute. There is talk about sexual preferences, and they have a healthy relationship. The commun is good, and that warms my heart. 4 stars #blmanga #gayromance #mangarec #yaoi

For my underrated gem of the month, I'm still looking for books that have less than 100 reviews/ratings on goodreads and/or amazon. It must be queer; it does not have to be romance. I prefer MM, MMM, or MMF.  Please rec me some stuff :)  #bookrecs

Unrivaled by Ashlyn Kane, Morgan James 3.book in a series but can be read as a standalone. I recommend all the other ones as well, as I had a blast with all of them. Excellent read for lovers of grumpy/sunshine and slow burn that started with a hookup trope. #mmromance #hockeyromance #gayromance

Adding a very important 🚨THIS IS EROTICA, NOT A ROMANCE🚨 alert, for those who might dive in expecting a HEA/HFN ending. I *do* write queer romance, but 'Riley's Basement' is NOT that. It is silly, over-the-top, VERY high-heat erotica.

The deal is still on-going! Get the first 3 audiobooks of the series for $9. That's like 30+ hours of audiobook for very cheap

Catch Me If I Fall by Augusta Connor A lovely short story (under 100 pages) about friendships, moving on, falling in love & acrobatics. All the characters are well written, the setting is intriguing, and the friendship and romance develop at a good pace. 5 stars. #mmromance #bookrec #sportsromance

Take over Zone by Minase Masara This one is about a high school track and field team. There is past trauma, but mostly this is a story about new beginnings, running, friendship, and tender teenage love. A short, fun read & nostalgic manga experience with pretty art. #blmanga #mangarec #gayromance

I recommend this one to anyone who found Heated Rivalry lacking. Excellent writing, great & very well fleshed-out characters, really hot sex scenes, good pacing, a fun cast of side characters. This is everything anyone could want after watching Heated Rivalry. #mmromance #bookrec #gayhockeyromance

Unrivaled by Ashlyn Kane, Morgan James Poetry On Ice (Totally Pucked, #1) by Jesse H. Reign Him by Sarina Bowen, Elle Kennedy #bookrec #mmromance #gayromane #hockeyromance

What if Kingsman was queer

Dash by Ijen and illustrated by Yeoreumsup Competitive swimming is a big part of the story. The pool scenes are so good. This is an excellent piece of writing & art, and I think everyone who enjoys pinning and a younger man pursuing an older one should read it. #mmromance #blmanga #sportsromance

This book did not disappoint. I enjoyed it very much. Friends-to-lovers & second chance are tropes that I like a lot.The writing is good, the pacing too, and the characters are interesting and lovable. Their friendship and banter are fun, and their sex scenes are hot. #mmRomance #gayHockeyBook

Act Out by Joe Fuyufusa This is technically not a romance, but it does have a queer main character, and it could have been. The art is breathtakingly beautiful. The sport is front and center when Nayuki is on the ice or when we get flashbacks from Vasily’s days as a ballet dancer. #queerManga #rec

Dirty Slide by K.D. Casey & Lauren Blakely This is a fun, short and sexy read. The story is simple and straightforward, but the characters make up for it. Chris and Josh are well written and fleshed out, the banter is funny. The sex scenes are well deserved and quite nice. #mmRomance #bookRec

Not for me. The romance is lacking, the pacing is weird, I didn’t enjoy the sex scenes, hockey seems like a setting only, and Ilya is not very well fleshed out. Based on this book, I would not read another one by the author. There are better #gayHockeyRomances out here. #mmRomance #bookReview

Melting Point by Pibi The art is excellent, the story intriguing. Childhood rivals who become lovers is something I genuinely enjoy. For those of you who haven’t clued in yet, this one is about hockey. Both Eunsan and Ian are very well written and fleshed out. Would recommend to anyone. #blmanga

Because of…everything going on with Heated Rivalry right now I decided to make January a gay sports romance month. We’re staring it off with Melting Point, the web manga I enjoyed way too much. So if gay sports romance is your thing, you might want to stick around. #mmromance #gaysportsbooks

So here are the books and manga I reviewed in 2025. For anyone who missed one or two and wants to check them out. I hope to bring you new and exciting reads, underrated gems and also old favorites in 2026. So stay tuned. LIST on Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/review/list/... #2025inBooks #mmromance

This fantasy MM romance is also poly, which I am so here for. The historical and rural setting really helps sell the main character, Folke a blind shepherd. This is a well-written fantasy story and perfect for a cozy evening on the sofa. #mmmRomance #gayRomance #bookRec #blindMC

The characters are well written, the story interesting and the sex scenes are good and hot too. Not too much even for people who usually don’t like BDSM in their romance. The writing…well, mostly it’s fine. All in all, it’s a good read, with likable characters. #mmfRomance #bookRec #polyRomance

This MM romance is kind of a murder mystery rom-com, and I am here for it. This book is charming and funny. Ray and Adam are very cute together. The sex scenes are fun and hot, too. If you had a bad day or week, you should read it. All-round a great read. #mmromance #bookrec #gayromance #romcom

This is an excellent enemies-to-lovers MM romance book, and I enjoyed it very much. Finished it in a few hours. All the fun tropes: sports, snowed in, enemies-to-lovers, and dogs being rescued. It has no kink or barely any sexy times. #mmromance #gayromance #bookreview #bookrec #enemiesTolovers

Three books about sex workers. That's it. #mmromance #gayromance #bookrecs #videorec

This is a delightful, short, and spicy read. If you like ghosts, boys in lingerie, and threesomes, this is the book for you. This story isn’t only spicy as hell but also sweet in a way I didn’t expect. 5 stars. Will read more from this author. #mmromance #polromance #crossdressing #ghosts #bookrec

I thought I'd do TikTok too when I started this, but TikTok does not spark joy, so I'll post the videos I made for it over the next few weeks on here. #mmromance #bookrec #gayromance #mmromantasy

This one is just cute, lovely even. Could call it a cozy read. One volume of secret identity and cute first times. The art is excellent and stylish. The romance develops nicely, and the sex, when it happens, feels only natural. Five stars because it warmed my heart. #blmanga #bookrec #yaoi

Just nope. 2 stars. Did not like it, made me mad. Will not touch another book by this author. A long review is on my goodreads, insta and tumblr, where all my long reviews live. Same name as here. #mmromance #mafiaromance #bookreview

This is not a cute story. The themes are rather mature and bleak. Crippling debt, homelessness, being tired of living, violence. The sex scenes are steamy, and it's nice to see older characters in a BL manga for a change. 1 volume. 4 stars. #blmanga #bookrec #gayromance

This #MMMromance I would recommend to anyone who likes poly romances and/or would like to dip their toes into kinky books. This #book is less spicy than one might think with the D/s being such a big part of it, but the scenes we get are hot, and I enjoyed them very much. #gayromance #bookrec

I would recommend this series to anyone who loves horror and gore with a BL side plot. This is heavy on relationships, Mokoto's quest to be the best and beat J at his own game, and what makes us human (or not). A perfect read for the season of the witch.  #blmanga #horrorbooks #horrormanga #bookrec

This is a very dirty book, but also romantic and wholesome. Needless to say, I enjoyed it very much. The sex scenes are very detailed and hot. There is dirty talk, double penetration, anal, and blowjobs. This is a gloriously filthy book with great characters. 5 🌟. #mmfromance #bookrec #polyromance

“I can’t choose between the two of you,” Russell says, “I had so much fun with each of you, and even more with both of you.” “So what the hell does that mean? What do we do with that?” “Have a threesome?” Sofia quips, a halfhearted joke. Matched Twice - Roxanne Riley #mmfromance #bookquote #poly

A new author to me. I enjoy #ghostsstories, so this #mmromance seemed like a good fit. Sadly, I didn’t enjoy it very much. The writing isn't very engaging, and the MCs aren’t much fun and the relationship progresses at a strange pace. Even the spicy scenes didn’t do it for me. #bookreview

"He’s handsome in the right light," Alaric huffed, still in ill-temper from over-indulging in ale. "Why? Do you like your men pretty?" "I like them not to rob me." "High standards." Alaric frowned. The Poison Paradox by Hadley Field, Felix A. Green #mmromance #gayromantasy #bookquotes

This is a super fun and lighthearted read. Instalove, brothers falling in love with the same guy, lots of sex. I enjoyed this drama-free book. Well written, the characters are fun, and Ryan is adorable! This one is for everyone who needs something fluffy and soft. #mmromance #bookrec #polyromance

“Fuck, I’m not saying this right. I didn’t mean to upset you, sweetheart. Please don’t be upset. I’m just a dumbass. Logan, tell him I’m a dumbass.” ​“Such a dumbass,” Logan agreed between light kisses to my neck. Ours to love by Jayda Marx (MMM) #mmromance #gayromance #bookquotes

There is something poetic about this #blmanga, and it’s not only the story and the characters’ struggles and past traumas; it’s also how it’s drawn. This one here is lovely, and everyone who likes #mafia stories, stories about disabled people, or just plain BL should give it a try. #gayromance

This is a novella and super short and we don’t get enough time with the characters. It has Interview with the vampire vibes, but with less angst. In exchange we get some sexy times, which I’m not mad about. Will most likely try the second book in this series. #mmromance #vampirebooks

“Are they as soft as they look?” he heard Ren ask. “Yes,” Jagger whispered, though his voice sounded even huskier than it usually did. “But you shouldn’t take my word for it.” What the fuck? Saving Ren by Kennedy Sloane (MMM) #mmromance #gayromance #polyromance

Coyote by Ranmaru Zaria (whole series so far) As I’m sure most people who are into BL manga have read this one, I’m keeping my love for it short. Only: it’s lovely, it’s hot, and it’s entertaining. Go read it if you haven’t yet. #blmanga #boyslove #werewolves #bookrec #enemiestolovers

Oh, this is a charming book. Everything I want in an MM romance with an urban fantasy setting.This masterpiece can be read at any time of the year, but I would recommend reading it in October for cozy supernatural fun. Looking forward to the second book. #mmromance #gayromance #bookrec #witchbooks

“I’m Erik,” I said. “Do you have a name for me?” “The sad man with the limp cock,” he said frankly, and smiled when I burst out laughing. I curled an affectionate hand around his nape, noting how he swayed towards me at the firm touch. The Naiad’s Gift by Isabel Murray #mmromance #gayromance
