March is a weird month. It’s not quite winter, and it’s not quite spring. It’s a little bit of both. It always feels to me like it goes on forever, and it’s easy to get lost in it. The excitement of the new year has worn off, but the sense of newness and possibility that comes with spring hasn’t yet arrived. Often, after two months of great reading in January and February, I find myself at a loss in March, feeling stuck back in the grind, unsure what to read next.
Happily, it doesn’t have to be that way! For starters, there are some incredible queer books coming out this March that are sure to brighten the month up. It’s also Women’s History Month, which is a great excuse to take a deep dive into queer women’s history. And guess what else? March’s drab, unassuming nature doesn’t have to be bleak and boring. Let’s treat it as an invitation to read exciting, unusual, get-me-out-of-here books instead!
This month’s curated queer TBR is full of books that are bright and colorful, strange and enchanting. Suffering from cabin fever? Pick up a road trip romance! Tired of winter? Escape with a space opera! Feeling stuck? I have a speculative novel that will shake you up in the best way possible. With all these amazing queer books, I promise that March doesn’t have to feel like a long slog through the mud.
