@tommy My favorite would be the Eldest Curses Series by Cassandra Clare, the MCs: Magnus is bi, and Alec is gay. The series is part of the larger shadowhunter world and this series focuses on parts of Magnus and Alec's relationship throughout the years. The first book (The Red Scrolls of Magic) is about Magnus and Alec's (I'ma call them Malec bc its easier to type) trip to Europe during the very beginning of their relationship, and in the spirit of fantasy books, they get wrapped up in cults, demons and that sort of stuff. No spoilers for the second :) For anyone wanting to read it, the series' books take place in between different series (timeline-wise) so be ready for some medium spoilers for other Shadowhuter series.
"I Want to Be a Wall" by Honami Shirono
The story about a young asexual woman who marries a young homosexual man so that their families will stop pestering them about marriage.
Cinderella is dead by Kalynn Bayron. 📙❤️
Also sweet and bitter magic by Adrienne Tooley. Such a masterpiece.

Yaari: An Anthology on Friendship by Women and Queer Folx Kindle Edition. This book is about friendships and social dynamics in India from a gendered and queer POV. It has LGBTQIA+ stories that I really enjoyed.
Carry on by Rainbow Rowell. Absolutely amazing book. Main character is queer.
Red, White, and Royal Blue! It's so good and shows the relationship so well! I love the characters and the movie is amazing, and we're even getting a 2nd movie!
