because you can never have too many lgbtq+ rec lists right? here’s yet another one for your pleasure. i’ve tried for the most part to include books by lgbtq+ authors (there are some that aren’t, i realise, mostly because they were so good i had to include them), and i’ve also, to the best of my knowledge/memory, put trigger warnings alongside.

criteria for inclusion

happy ending

no bury your gays

lgbtq+ character is the/a main and gets a pov

not harmful representation

lgbtq-ness is not the only plotline - tho there may be argued to be some exceptions to this included. i mean more like, the plot does not revolve around them realising they’re gay and having a terrible time of everything before someone (usually straight) tells them they’re allowed to be happy or whatever. you know what kind of book i mean.

most importantly (lol) i liked it

p.s. there will be more parts to this, as i read more. if there’s one not on here that you think should be, feel free to ask about it. i’ll either have not read it or it’ll be excluded for one of the reasons above. equally, if there’s one on here with bad rep of any sort, let me know and i’ll take it off.

snippet: Red Scrolls of Magic

Another snippet for Pride Month: Alec and Raphael bond in Red Scrolls of Magic, coming March 2019. A dryad is disappointed.

“I am trying not to make eye contact with anyone here,” said Raphael. “And I’m not a snitch for Shadowhunters. Or a fan of talking to people, of any kind, in any place.”

          Alec rolled his eyes. At this point, a faerie woman came twirling through. She had leaves in her updo and was swathed in ribbons and ivy and not much else. She tripped on a trailing line of ivy and Alec caught her.

          “Good reflexes!” she said brightly. “Also great arms. Would you be interested in a night of tumultuous forbidden passion, with an option to extend to seven years?”  

          “Um. I’m gay,” Alec said.

          He was not used to saying that casually, to any random person. It was strange to say it, and feel both relief and a shadow of his old fear, twined together.

Of course, the declaration might not mean much to faeries. The faerie woman accepted this with a shrug, then looked down at the floor where Raphael was sitting sulking, and lit up. Something about the leather jacket or the scowl seemed to appeal to her strongly.

          “How about you, Vampire Without A Cause?”

          “I’m not gay,” said Raphael. “I’m not straight. I’m not interested.”

          “Your sexuality is ‘not interested’?” Alec asked curiously.

          Raphael said: “That’s right.”

          The faerie thought for a moment, then ventured: “I can also assume the appearance of a tree!”

          Raphael looked scandalized. “Young lady tree person, reconsider your life and your choices. In church.”

          The faerie frowned. “Oh, are you Raphael Santiago? I’ve heard about you.”

          Raphael made a gesture of dismissal. “Have you heard I like it when people go away?”

Lucas: dating tip: hold the door for your date. Rip the door off its hinges. Use the door as a weapon to fight off other men. Establish dominance.

Chenle:

Chenle: How did you... even get into a relationship?

Lucas: I broke my hand on mine and Mark's first date. At this point, I firmly believe he's just afraid to leave me unadvised.
