Another banger of a book!

[repotting]

people who don't normally read sci fi have such bad taste in sci fi 😭

[messy-does-cosmology]

Lol there is this LGBT bookshop near me run by this married couple and they mostly just stock their own self-published books and graphic novels

hiya papaya! my partner and i love your youtube videos, and we recently started a book review podcast focusing on books with queer themes. i wanted to ask if you had any lesser known queer ya book reccs, cuz i'd love to hear about them of so! also, i would love to cover your book at some point and perhaps talk with you about it, but that's future things cuz i don't want to fully ask that when we're only one episode in ourselves. thanks for making such awesome videos!~

I'm a huge huge huge podcast nerd so I may check out yours and would totally love to be on it! I really do despite all appearences spend most of my time gaming while listening to podcasts. Most of those podcasts are old episodes of mbmbam but look, we don't choose our autism.

I so don't do enough reading of NOT bad books in truth. Reading is hard and I take my occasional bad book breaks to read... like random stuff rather than specifically lgbt ya. But digging through my review archives and memory:

I'd be remiss if I didn't mention The Butterfly Assassin series by Finn Longman, which is foremost a spy assassin story set in a closed city but also has (and goes into more later) an aro ace lead character! And a very keen specific focus on close platonic bonds!! Stuff like that always gets passed over talking queer lit because it's not that bombastic I think to go 'there's good friendship here' but honestly so important to me to see books on purpose intentionally highlight platonic bonds as just as important as romantic or sexual. Anyway, great books. Caveat I know the author a bit but like, I am too autistic to hype up a friend's book that I DIDN'T genuinely love.

The aro/ace database is a key friend and work of art.

I think Angels Before Man is very widely known but a very interesting queer angel book!

Valhalla trilogy by Ari Bach is a very fun far future sci fi action fest with norse mythology parallels and dangerous lesbian valkyries

Archangel Protocol series, Lyda Morehouse isn't YA I think. Maybe. The fourth book could be, that one has a teen lead. Anyway, look!!! My fav angel weird sci fi universal unitarian religious 90s cyberpunk series...

I don't think my reccs help much at all here but there you go! I KNOW a lot of indie lgbt books. I just haven't actually read them.... yet......

🩸 The vibes? CRIMSON PEAK meets BLOODBORNE. But gay. It's so gay. Also trans. There's an NB character in here, too.

🩸 Part one of a five part series, each one focusing on a particularly ghastly villain who isn't entirely wrong and is so sexy about it.

PROFANE SACRAMENT is currently on sale throughout the month of October! What a better way to celebrate the best season? Grab the ebook, or grab the paperback, and settle in for a hot treat. 🦇🎃

I'm gonna be brave and do a (local but virtual) book club this weekend!! And I reread the book for it last night when I was in too much pain to sleep and I picked up on something that I missed the first time around and that no one I've talked to about this (fairly popular) book has mentioned. So I might even have something to add to the conversation!!

50. A Book You Started but Never Finished

Surpassing the Love of Men by Lillian Faderman

[indigoinka]

Fat lesbian vampire story is free!

Secrets at the Door is free on all the retailers until the end of the month.

The secrets aren't at the door. They're already in the house.

Betsy’s reluctance to lead the Merryweather coven puts her entire family in danger, and with an injured vampire showing up on their doorstep and a bloodborn harvest to resurrect, they can’t afford mistakes.

When the coven is targeted on neighbouring Castle land, the only reliable witness is a young girl found hiding in the family mausoleum. But Lotus is not what she seems.

The girl is a secret keeper with a bind on her tongue. And when one of the Merryweathers finds Lotus unconscious in the woods, Betsy helps her unravel her tongue, slowly learning the terrible truth of what her coven has been harbouring for years.

This book features a fat, beekeeping lesbian vampire, a queer well-demon in need of a haircut, vampires who make very bad decisions, and a case of stone-cold revenge. There are romantic elements (f/f & m/nonbinary).

rereading Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzalez and ollie is so! fucking! mecore!

The relief I feel being free from working at Gaslight City is unparalleled, but I miss some of the clients so fucking bad. Specifically there was these two dudes I just loved. One of them was a felon, ex-bank robber, just the nicest dude I've ever met. A lil dumb sometimes but heart of fucking gold. And the other guy is so gd sweet too. His big "crime" that made him homeless was being just too autistic to function in society, which just pissed me off so much. He loved plants and we would infodump about them together. And they were best friends who watched each other's backs viciously.

Anyway working with the homeless is so amazing and you really do meet the best people. There's not a client I don't miss, really, even the ones who drove me nuts.
