Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

Listen. By now we all know how much I love this one. I just wanted an excuse to read it again before the movie came out. Five stars before, five stars now, five stars always.  

Prompts filled: Popsugar– A book becoming a TV series or movie in 2023; BTBL – Five word title 

The Bookshop of Second Chances by Jackie Fraser 

⭐⭐⭐(¾) 

This was adorable! It took a few chapters to ramp up, and I almost didn’t keep going, but I’m so glad I did. I love books about books, so this caught my eye … I think at the dollar store? It’s a gentle, cute read, some perfect escapism for unbearably hot summer days. Once the story picked up, I got to sit back and enjoy friends-to-crushes-to-lovers, with a hearty side of women’s lit as the MC reinvents herself post-divorce. Very cute, but I don’t know that it’s something I would pick up and read again. 

Prompts filled: BTBL – Standalone; CRAD – The same genre as last month 

Bear With Me Now by Katie Shepard 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

I LOVED this one, and I'm already excited to reread it again later. I bought a copy at my local indie back on Indie Bookstore Day, but only just now got around to reading it. I laughed, I cried, I got some strange looks from my coworkers for the laughing and the crying. Right out of the gate, when Teagan gets tricked into rehab (he’s not an addict), I was invested in the relationship between him and his sister. Then he meets a bear, then he meets Darcy and we’re off to the races. They’ve got their traumas, they’ve got their walls, and they’re figuring them out together. There’s something about a love story where nobody needs to be “fixed” to be loved that just hits so perfectly for me, and this absolutely fit the bill. 

Prompts filled: BTBL– All the nature vibes 

Summer Reading by Jenn McKinlay 

⭐⭐⭐⭐(¼) 

Again, books about books. Also, books about robotics (tangentially. Anyone looking for books about CIMs and RIOs and such will not find that here. But the MC’s younger brother is into robotics, so I was interested). The first thing I noticed about this book was right there in the forward: it’s designed to be dyslexia-friendly. The author worked with her publisher to use a font that’s harder to flip around, wider leading and bold type instead of italics. The bold text took some getting used to, but I love that McKinlay took such care in putting her story out there. The MC is dyslexic, which made this the perfect story for this sort of accessibility. It touches on mental illness, family drama, friendships, sibling relationships and everything in between. Also, the MC is a chef, which makes this a book about books, robotics AND food. All in all, an excellent book presented in an excellent way. 

Prompts filled: Romanceopoly – The Gym/Longest book on your TBR; Popsugar – Longest book on your TBR 

Chef’s Kiss by TJ Alexander 

⭐⭐⭐(½) 

I grabbed this from the library based on the vibes of the cover alone (it’s a great cover, honestly. I know how the adage goes, but the fact of the matter is that covers sell stories). What I got was rivals(?) to lovers, workplace stress, and a well-handled discussion of sexuality and gender. The book handled the complex nuances of those conversations with grace and class, but the rest of the plot fell flat in places. There were places I was ready to reach through the pages and shake the MC silly for staying with her terrible workplace, or refusing to have one (1) conversation about her feelings. Solid romance, but it’s hard to stay invested in that plot when I’m so frustrated with one of the characters invovled. 

Prompts filled: Romanceopoly – Rainbow Row/Read an LGBTQ+ romance; Popsugar – A book with a queer lead 

Dog Days: A Year in the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile by Dave Ihlenfeld 

⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

My non-fic selection for the month, this one has been on my shelf for ages. I love a good memoir, and this was unlike anything I’ve read before. There was a startling about of parallel between the author and myself – J-school graduates who didn’t want a future in journalism – except he went on to spend a year driving an Oscar Mayer Wienermobile across America. I LOVE a good tourist gimmick ((thanks to this book, I’ve looked to see if the renamed Frankmobile is going to be anywhere near me)), so this was a perfect fit for me. Ihlenfeld wove his personal story together with the history of Oscar Mayer and the Wienermobile, which left me with a better understanding of how and why it worked as a marketing schtick, and how taking unexpected opportunities can change peoples’ lives.  

Prompts filled: Popsugar – A book with alliteration in the title; BTBL – No romance

Exploring The Best LGBT-Friendly Places Around The Globe

No matter where you go, it is important to feel accepted and included. If you're part of the LGBT+ community, finding a place that is accepting can be daunting. Fortunately, there are many places around the world that celebrate and embrace diversity. In this article, we will explore some of the best LGBT-friendly places around the globe, so you can plan your next adventure with confidence!

There are a lot of great places around the globe that are welcoming and inclusive of the LGBT community. Whether you're looking for a place to live, visit, or just want to learn more about different cultures, here are some of the best LGBT-friendly places around the globe.

LGBT-Friendly Cities Around the World

There are a number of great cities around the world that are incredibly welcoming to the trans safe places near me. Here are just a few of the most amazing places you can go if you're looking for an inclusive and friendly environment:

San Francisco, USA

One of the most iconic LGBT-friendly cities in the world, San Francisco is known for its diverse and open-minded population. From the Castro district to the Rainbow flag flying at City Hall, there's no shortage of places to feel welcome and included here.

Berlin, Germany

The German capital has long been a haven for queer people, with a large and vibrant LGBT scene. From underground clubs to public parks, there's something for everyone in Berlin. And with same-sex marriage now legal in Germany, it's one of the most progressive countries in Europe when it comes to LGBT rights.

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Rio is renowned for its Carnival celebrations, but it's also a great city for LGBT travelers. The city has a number of gay-friendly beaches, as well as a lively nightlife scene in neighborhoods like Lapa. And with Brazilian attitudes towards homosexuality becoming more accepting in recent years, Rio is definitely worth considering as a travel destination.

Family-Friendly Destinations

There are many destinations around the globe that are LGBT-friendly and welcoming to all families. Here are just a few of the top spots to consider for your next vacation:

San Francisco, California - known for its progressive values and vibrant LGBT community, San Francisco is a great place to bring the whole family. From the Golden Gate Bridge to Alcatraz Island, there's something for everyone to enjoy in this beautiful city.

New York City, New York - another terrific option for an LGBT-friendly vacation, New York City is one of the most diverse and inclusive cities in the world. From Broadway shows to world-famous museums, there's something for everyone in NYC.

Toronto, Canada - Toronto is a welcoming and inclusive city, with a large LGBT community. This cosmopolitan city offers plenty of activities and attractions for families, including the CN Tower and Ripley's Aquarium of Canada.

Barcelona, Spain - Barcelona is well-known as a gay-friendly destination, and it's also a great place to bring the kids. With its stunning architecture, Mediterranean beaches, and abundance of cultural attractions, Barcelona has something for everyone in the family.

Legal Rights for the LGBT Community

The LGBT community has made great strides in recent years in terms of legal rights and protections. In many countries around the world, same-sex marriage is now legal, and laws are in place to protect LGBT people from discrimination and hate crimes.

However, there are still many places where LGBT rights are not fully recognized or protected. In some countries, same-sex relationships are still illegal, and LGBT people can face severe penalties, including imprisonment, for their relationship status. In other countries, while same-sex relationships may be legal, discrimination against LGBT people is still common, and there are no laws in place to protect them from abuse or mistreatment.

There are a number of organizations that work to promote LGBT rights around the world. These organizations provide support and resources for LGBT people living in countries where their rights are not fully recognized or protected. They also work to raise awareness about the issues faced by the LGBT community globally, and to lobby for changes in laws and policies to better protect LGBT people everywhere.

Outtravel: Outtravel is an online booking platform that specializes in helping LGBT travelers find accommodation that suits their needs. They offer a wide range of properties around the world, from hotels and hostels to private apartments and villas.

Conclusion

Exploring the best LGBT-friendly places around the globe is a great way to expand your horizons and discover all that the world has to offer. Whether it’s checking out local bars, museums or cultural events, there are plenty of amazing experiences awaiting you in cities like Amsterdam, Berlin and New York City. So don't wait any longer—start planning your next trip today!
