Non-white/BIPOC & Latine Winter Holiday Romances

After spending literal hours scrolling the same white, cis-het, holiday romances on mainstream lists, I decided to say f- this, I'll do it myself.

I am not the first person to seek these books out and other creators, partiurlarly Black bloggers, have created their own lists that highlight holiday romances. Please support them too!! I've linked the lists that I pulled some of the books from here:

• 22 Winter Holiday Books by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour) Authors

• 7 Black Romance Holiday Reads To Curl Up With

• CHRISTMAS ROMANCE BOOKS BY BIPOC AUTHORS🎄 | VLOGMAS DAY 13

• 12 Diverse Holiday Romance Books To Enjoy the Winter Season

Note: all books are by non-white/BIPOC and/or Latine authors and feature at least one non-white/BIPOC and/or Latine main character. Also, the list is organized alphabetically by author's first name, not by tropes or identities. There is an * for those featuring queer/LGBTQIA+ relationships and characters.

Please check content and trigger warnings prior to reading!

If you're like me and want to see covers, see them here!

BIG thanks to Satoria (@satrayreads) and Amanda (@talk_about_swoon) for their recommendations when I first came ranting to the interwebs about this. As well as everyone who commented and authors who self-recc'd, this list wouldn't exist without yall.

p.s. I have not read all of these, feel free to let me know if any have harmful representation!
