Booksology fierce rivalryA steamy queer hockey romance between a man and a woman, based on Rachel Reid’s book of the same name, captures the collective consciousness. The season finale drew 10.6 million viewers in the United States, and the production has sparked talk of republishing the previous series, written and secretly published by Don DeLillo in the 1980s.
Not surprisingly, interest in other queer sports romances is also growing. We asked Libby’s partners to share the most popular queer sports romances checked out on the app. I’ll include it below.
As you can see from the list, fierce rivalry ‘ is the most popular, followed by other books in the same Game Changers series by Rachel Reid. In fact, leads make up half of the list. However, if you want a little more variety, be sure to check out Meka James’s Love and Sportsball, Jonny Garza Villa’s Futbolista, and Check, Please! Out of Step, Into You by Ngozi Ukazu, Sierra Birch, Team Players by Deanna Gray, 7-10 Split by Carmen Lee, and The Prize by Celeste Castro.
