We’re in the middle of Latine Heritage Month, which runs from September 15th to October 15th. To celebrate, I’m highlighting seven books by Latine authors that check off tasks in the 2026 Read Harder Challenge, including YA, nonfiction about resistance, magical realism, gothic novels, and romantasy.
These recommendations are all written by Vanessa Diaz, who also writes Book Riot’s Latine Lit newsletter. Sign up to get Latine book recommendations in your inbox all year round!
