Favourite books of 2025

[Graphic novels get their own post here!]

My favourite - mostly queer, SFF & historical - books I read this year. It was a rough year and there’s so much horrific news for marginalised people of many kinds, I mostly read purely for fun to bolster my morale, and made a real effort to just not finish books I wasn’t vibing with - it meant I found a TON of books I really loved this year!!!

Hari Conner and 66 other people liked K.J. Charles's review of The Resurrectionist:
The Resurrectionist by A. Rae Dunlap
"A historical novel with romance set amid Edinburgh's Resurrection Men at the time of Burke and Hare.

It's a glorious setting for a Gothic romance--two bodysnatchers/anatomists falling in love over plundered graves and eviscerated bodies! Unfortunatel" Read more of this review »

George Eliot
“To know intense joy without a strong bodily frame, one must have an enthusiastic soul.”
George Eliot, Middlemarch

Robin Hobb
“You seek a false comfort when you demand that I define myself for you with words. Words do not contain or define any person. A heart can, if it is willing.”
Robin Hobb, Golden Fool

Eli Clare
“I want to sharpen my pride on what strengthens me, my witness on what haunts me. Whatever we name ourselves, however we end up shattering our self-hatred, shame, silence, and isolation, the goal is the same: to end our daily material oppression.”
Eli Clare, Exile and Pride: Disability, Queerness, and Liberation

Ursula K. Le Guin
“How does one hate a country, or love one? Tibe talks about it; I lack the trick of it. I know people, I know towns, farms, hills and rivers and rocks, I know how the sun at sunset in autumn falls on the side of a certain plowland in the hills; but what is the sense of giving a boundary to all that, of giving it a name and ceasing to love where the name ceases to apply? What is love of one's country; is it hate of one's uncountry? Then it's not a good thing. Is it simply self-love? That's a good thing, but one mustn't make a virtue of it, or a profession... Insofar as I love life, I love the hills of the Domain of Estre, but that sort of love does not have a boundary-line of hate. And beyond that, I am ignorant, I hope.”
Ursula K. Le Guin, The Left Hand of Darkness
