This is just a quick post to let everyone know I’ve added a new page to my blog! It’s not as detailed or as vast as the books with disability list because it’s only books that I’ve read, but it includes POC, LGBT+, disability (mental and physical), and religion. I’ve always had these tags and links on my blog, but I figured everyone might not know about them, so I’ve just compiled all the links into one page. It also includes some books I’ve read but don’t plan to review and a few games. Hopefully it’ll help anyone who’s looking for a specific type of representation or more diversity among characters in general find more books they might be interested in, especially since I read a lot of indie books that aren’t super well-known.
You can check out the new page at this link, and it will also be in the menu at the top of the site!
Here are a few diverse/inclusive recommendations to start you off (covers link to Amazon):
Soul Breaker by Clara Coulson
Urban fantasy with a Latinx, bisexual protag who has PTSD and panic attacks. [Review]
Lovesick Gods by Amanda Meuwissen
Superhero/villain romance with bisexual MCs, one is Asian, the other has depression. [Review]
The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty
Historical fantasy about djinn, I believe the MC is from Egypt and the rest of the characters are from around Africa and Asia. [Review]
Moth & Whisper Vol. 1 by Ted Anderson & Jen Hickman
YA cyberpunk graphic novel with a POC nonbinary MC. [Review]
The Ex-Princess by Fiona West
Fantasy romance, one character is Black, the other has lupus. [Review]
Oh, wow. I looked into the list, and it must have been a LOT of work to put together. And you officially made it to my next Tooting Your Trumpet post!
Aww thanks!
This is amazingly detailed! I hope lots of readers find this fantastic resource😁
Thanks, me too!
Thanks for putting all this together! A fantastic resource and it looks nice and clear for navigation.
Thanks 🙂
Awesome resource! Thanks, Kristen!
Thanks!
SOUL BREAKER!! I’m looking at you brother. I’m always on the lookout for Latinx characters that are really Latin! It’s a rep I know well and love but you really don’t find well portrayed. Thanks for this Kristen. Looks like a page I will need to be visiting often.
Tbh there isn’t much about him being Latinx, so idk if you might be disappointed. It’s a great series though!
How exciting. This is a great resource!

Thanks, I hope people find it useful!
I’ve noticed that you review quite a few diverse books. It’s neat how you’ve made an easy way for readers to find diverse books that you’ve read. I’m currently reading Wicked Fox by Kat Cho.
Ooh I want to read that one!
Wow! This must have taken you ages to write and plan out your tags. You are a very thoughtful blogger, Kristen.
Thanks, I hope it’s helpful to people!
It’s always nice to find these resources – especially for less known authors/titles.

This is great. Thanks so much for doing this! I just recently purchased a copy of The City of Brass based on your recommendation. 🙂
Oh that makes me happy! I’m loving that series, I hope you love it too!
That sounds handy how you added a page for those book to your blog, especially as you had those tags set up already. I’ll have a look at that page soon 🙂
Thanks 🙂
