A daydreamer and a bit of a lost cause, Rey loves stories. Whether they're book shaped or you can see them on a screen, a story always hides in the corners of her mind. She's working on a few stories of her own, always accompanied by her trusty cat.

Pride month is here! Of course, we love queer bookish content all day long, but when June rolls around it’s just the perfect time to celebrate queer stories. In this case, I want to share with you not books, but merch from queer books that we love. So if you’re looking for merch to celebrate and show your love for any of these stories, you’re in luck.

From prints to dust jackets, stickers, or even candles, I hope you find something to showcase your love for these books here. You can expect merch inspired by beloved stories like Heartstopper (and there’s more where that came from), Cemetery Boys, One Last Stop, and more, all available from Etsy. Most of them are definitely from romance books, but there are a couple of SFF stories thrown in as well. In general, I tried to pick a variety of merch from queer books that everyone can love.

Without further ado, let’s jump into these incredible pieces of merch from queer books.
