THE MM+ LONGLIST
Grouped by word count. Where word counts are the same, I’ve listed alphabetically by surname. Some comparable-length popular books are included for reference only.
All are at least 4.2 Amazon stars at time of adding. Universal URLs are included where possible so you can read blurbs & reviews!
NOTE: For series in which a large number of books exceed 140K, I’ve included a minimum of 3 from the series, or (as with Quil Carter’s) the first in each volume or companion series. These longer series are also noted at the bottom of the page.
I wish you all many happy hours of reading! :)

SERIES OF NOTE:
QUIL CARTER’S FALLOCAUST SERIES includes 14 books that exceed 140K, many of them by a margin. Standalones and the first volume of each Fallocaust companion series are given direct links above to get you started (7 books in total). The Fallocaust series so far comprises nearly 3.7m words.
BIANCA SOMMERLAND & TIBBY ARMSTRONG’s ASYLUM FIGHT CLUB SERIES comprises 21 books, almost all of which exceed 140K.
FOR REFERENCE - POPULAR 140K+ BOOKS IN OTHER GENRES
Some popular non-MM+ books (mostly Fantasy & Romance) for comparison. For series, I’ve selected books within that series, even if others are over 140K. I should add, there’s a problematic author for me on the list (as I’m trans) but the books are well-known so may be a useful reference point for some readers.
