This Way Out by Tufayel Ahmed: (Contemporary RomCom) Amar can’t wait to tell everyone his wonderful news: he’s found The One, and he’s getting married. But it turns out announcing his engagement on a group chat might not have been the best way to let his strict Muslim Bangladeshi family know that his happy-ever-after partner is a man—and a white man at that.

This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone: (SciFi) Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandant finds a letter.

Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, grows into something more. Something epic. Something romantic. Something that could change the past and the future. Rep: sapphic, F/F relationship.
Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey Mcquiston: (Contemporary RomCom) FSOTUS Alex Claremont-Diaz never expected tumbling into a wedding cake with his nemesis Prince Henry of Wales would lead to tumbling into bed with him. But what begins as a PR stunt transforms first into a clandestine affair, then a love story capable of upending two nations. Forced to reckon with the consequences, Alex and Henry must ask: What is worth the sacrifice? How do you do all the good you can do? And, most importantly, how will history remember you? Rep: BIPOC characters, gay, bisexual, M/M relationship.
Undergrounder by JE Glass: (SciFi/Fantasy) The last place Alexandra Bailey expects her routine life of domestic journalism to lead is being sucked into icy floodwaters below New York City. Saved but hardly safe, Alex wakes in the Underground, a world of misfits and monsters thriving below the streets. Her beastly savior is Leanna Farrow, adopted daughter of an infamous and "presumed dead" scientist. But Alex's curiosity, coupled with her rapidly developing feelings for Leanna, put both women in danger when Alex's inquiries pique the interest of a powerful family with bloody connections to the Underground's origins. If Alex wants to unravel the secrets of the world below, she'll have to walk the razor's edge, but some mysteries are better left buried. Rep: sapphic, F/F relationship.

Rough All Under: Undergrounder
I finished Undergrounder by J.E. Glass. I have thoughts...
Tumblr media
Here there be spoilers!
The indie publishing world is full of diamonds in the rough. It is also, unfortunately, full of raw material still in need of refining. J.E. Glass’s Undergrounder represents the tragedy of both the publishing industry and the struggle of queer literature generally. 
A sci-fi queer feminist take on Beauty and the Beast, this novel features Alex: a sprightly, intrepid, beautiful sapphic journalist who finds herself attacked one night as part of a revenge-hit on the streets of New York City. Her body is thrown off a bridge, and she literally washes down into the city’s secret underbelly where a society run by a mysterious scientist in hiding has been thriving for the better part of 30 years. Among its residents is Alex’s savior--and love interest--Leanna, “Lee,” who appears to be some kind of monstrous-looking mutant with a heart of gold. Together, the two of them build a new life together and fall in love even as forces around them threaten to tear them apart.
The plot is where part of my problems begin. I won’t summarize further because it gets off-the-rails silly: all parties have mob connections, those mob connections are hunting for their various targets, the reasons why are convoluted, and none of it makes much sense or is terribly compelling.
This book was meant as the first in the series. The first volume clearly is meant to serve mostly as a primer in the world building and as the introduction to the various characters. The problem with that method is that pacing suffers. I couldn’t turn off this background hum in my brain as I was reading that was urging me to restructure scenes, to switch things around, to cut other things shorter in order to make the tenuous logic of the premise and the natural arc of the stakes sweep a reader along. Overall, the story judders and clunks, making it a struggle to suspend disbelief. And that’s the real problem. I have no objection to silly action-adventure books, but if I’m not caught up in your spell, then I’m going to see the machine behind the curtain. If the illusion’s ruined, then I’m no longer feeling the magic.
Plotting and pacing weren’t the only places this book suffered. Dialogue fell flat. And point of view kept switching without clear reason or warning. (While all of it was told in third person, the text would close-third follow one character and then mid-scene switch for a second to close-third someone else. When that happens, it’s incredibly distracting. Point of view and perspective matter. Stronger writers know that you should pick vantage points with intention.) All in all, it became a lot of tell instead of show and that made the book an even harder slog on top of everything else.
So, it’s a cringe book. There are a lot of them. Why do I think it’s a tragedy?
Because I know what it takes to write a book. The first few drafts of a novel are hard to do, and they come out bad. Every one of them. Because all you’re supposed to be doing is telling yourself the story. Then, you go back and you re-write and revise on global levels and on sentence levels to make it better. But even then, your work won’t be publishing level worthy. What you really need to make a good book is a good editorial team.
Here’s the reality: not every creative writer with potential gets one of those. Getting published traditionally is an uphill battle even for white cishet writers/narratives because publishers have generally told debut writers: you are on your own. You must market the book yourself. You’ll get only some editorial attention. But the publisher’s goal is to throw stuff out there and see what sells. After you explode, when you become a John Green or a Colleen Hoover, then they’ll put more effort into helping you make your books the best they can be because then you’re a safe bet.
So imagine how much harder it becomes when you’re writing a queer book.
I cheer to see the Casey McQuistons and the Alice Osemans of the world making it (relatively) big. But it’s a struggle. For every one of them, there are hundreds--nay thousands--of queer storytellers out there who will only be read by a fraction of the audience. They’ll never get the same level of praise. Their stuff will be lost in the wash. It sucks. It’s wrong. Capitalism and homophobia are the nightmare shackles of our society.
So I don’t want to just sneer at ‘bad’ books and dismiss them. I see them for what they are: raw potential from creative queer minds who are fighting to get out the kind of representation and the kind of stories they want to see in the world. I respect the hell out of it! It takes some of the deepest courage possible to put yourself out there.
So I sigh as I say: Undergrounder isn’t a good book. But it’s a brave one. And I hope that Glass and every other queer writer out there keeps telling stories and keeps refining their craft. Because it’s rough out there, living in the underground. And we need to keep fighting to come up, come out, and be seen.

His ass hates wearing them (he's near sighted trust me, I'm Proxi)
