Books from this year's nominations spreadsheet not already listed above:

A Matter of Oaths - Helen S. Wright. Fun space opera. One half of the m/m ship has amnesia.

At Swim Two Boys - Jamie O'Neill. Historical fiction about the Easter Rising. Unsurprisingly heartbreaking. Fixit requests tend to be popular, but so do canon-compliant requests, iirc.

Band Sinister - K. J. Charles. Frothy Regency romance, like an m/m (and m/m/m, and implied m/m/m/m) Georgette Heyer novel.

Dark Matter - Michelle Paver. Historical ghost story set in the Arctic. Canonical UST.

False Colors - Alex Beecroft. Age of sail historical romance.

For Real - Alexis Hall. Contemporary BDSM age difference romance with an older sub and a younger dom.

In Other Lands | The Turn of the Story - Sarah Rees Brennan. YA portal fantasy.

Lilywhite Boys - K. J. Charles. Victorian historical fantasy about a jewel heist.

Machineries of Empire Series - Yoon Ha Lee. Space opera/military SF with bodysharing and numerous other identity-themed tropes. Extremely not fluffy.

Moby Dick - Herman Melville. Arguably canonical, but if Queequeg wants to say that he and Ishmael are married, who am I to gainsay him?

Proper English - K. J. Charles. Historical country house murder mystery. Primary ship is f/f, but there's a secondary m/m ship.

Silver in the Wood - Emily Tesh. Historical fantasy about a Green Man.

The Amberlough Dossier - Lara Elena Donnelly. Secondary world fantasy modeled on the Weimar Republic and the rise of the Nazi party. Unsurprisingly brutal.

The Binding - Bridget Collins. AU historical fantasy. I'd recommend reading this book unspoiled.

The Charioteer - Mary Renault. Historical fiction about WWII soldiers.

The Fire's Stone - Tanya Huff. Secondary world quest fantasy. Some people might request the f/m/m OT3, but as long as you just offer the guys, you'll be fine.

The Nightrunner Series - Lynn Flewelling. Secondary world adventure fantasy. Heads up that the series is fairly long, and most people say that it goes downhill after the first two books. (I've only read the first two myself and can't comment.)

I just finished reading The Binding and really, really hope someone requests it.
