Books to Read this Disability Pride Month

While disability is still a stigmatised topic for many, with disabled authors often left in the margins of the publishing industry—and history—, there is still a multitude of wonderful stories featuring disabled characters from all walks (and wheels, canes, crutches, etc.) of life to dive into this Disability Pride Month. We've compiled our biggest list yet in the hopes of diversifying your (and our own) reading lists, with books featuring everything from invisible illnesses and neurodivergence to motor impairments!


Here at Swords & Sapphics, we don't long to see more representation — we find it, because it already exists. So, commemorate the anniversary on which the American Disability Act was passed in 1990 and celebrate these amazing authors, old and new, indie and traditional, by growing your TBR pile with eons of new books featuring an array of disability rep.
