SPOILER ALERT.

Alex Claremont-Diaz is not throwin’ away his shot! *chortles*

Per EVERYONE’s request, albeit @andakillerqueen beat everyone to the punch, here is the Red Room Scene from Red White and Royal Blue! Having seen this room in person on a tour of the White House, this was a fun challenge. Although I swear, it took just as long to paint the dang Hamilton painting and its picture frame as it did to paint Henry and Alex. Lol

I can’t believe I never posted this! I drew this a few months ago after meeting Casey Mcquiston in New York. It’s Alex and Henry from her novel Red, White, & Royal Blue.

“When I was younger,” Henry says, “I had this very elaborate idea of taking somebody I loved here and standing inside the chapel, that he’d love it as much as I did, and we’d slow dance right in front of the Blessed Mother. Just a... daft pubescent fantasy.”

If you like these popular gay books, try these ones out

So I’ve noticed a large and growing fandom/interest in Carry On/Wayward Son, Red White & Royal Blue, The Raven Cycle, The Song of Achilles, Simon Vs, The Gentleman’s Guide to Virtue and Vice, and Six of Crows, and the gay storylines in them, this is GREAT! it’s lovely! not all that long ago the idea of a gay book becoming popular on it’s own, mind blowing. However there are other books out there that need your love, your fandom art talent, etc so please think about cracking open these high quality novels and enjoying any of the following 

Peter Darling

The Lightning-Struck Heart

How to Repair a Mechanical Heart

They Both Die at the End

Alan Cole Is Not a Coward

When Ryan Came Back

Wonders of the Invisible World

Wild and Crooked

More Happy Than Not

Last Bus to Everland

We Contain Multitudes

Love & Other Curses

Jack of Hearts

The Darkest Part of the Forest

The Love Interest

Boy Meets Boy

okay so I have many many more good books, but if you like any of the books I listed in my opening I feel like you’ll love at least some of these, all of these books deserve your love, time, readership, come on, new world’s await
