All The LGBTQ Books We Loved in 2019

Last year was one for the books -- literally.

Throughout 2019, we spent our time reading an array of LGBTQ stories, novels, anthologies, memoirs, and more, all of which spanned across various types of interests.

While most of the titles were released in 2019, some were already a year old by the time we read them. Nonetheless, all of them made a lasting impact. Here are our favorites:
