Green Queer Books #PrideLibrary19 πŸŒˆ

The Pride Library 2019 Challenge is hosted by Library Looter, Anniek’s Library and Michelle Likes Things. Join in on it anytime or link your post in the comments so I see it! Also all reviews I’ve written will be linked.

Green is my current favourite colour for book covers, I mean look at these! With green I feel a vibe of characters saying fuck it and being themselves.

The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzie Lee

Full review: 4/5 stars

Bisexual male main character who starts out a 1700s rich douche who gambles, drinks and sleeps around too much until he’s sent of a Grand Tour of Europe with his sister and best friend and continues to get himself in trouble, but also fun dangerous mystery type of trouble.

Heartstopper by Alice Oseman

Review is coming as I just finished it, but it was a 5/5 star read! It’s a cute graphic novel with M/M romance, with the gay characters from Solitaire by Alice Oseman.

TBR

The Love & Lies of Rukhsana Ali by Sabina Khan

goodreads

Muslim lesbian teenage girl as main character dealing with family not accepting her, sending her to Bangladesh into an arranged marriage.

The Past and Other Things That Should Stay Buried by Shaun David Hutchinson

goodreads

Amazing gay author writing contemporary YA with gay characters. This one has a dead best friend coming back to life?? Intriguing.

Rubyfruit Jungle by Rita Mae Brown

goodreads

A classic lesbian novel. That’s what I know of it, honestly. This cover is lovely as well.

The Cybernetic Tea Shop by Meredith Katz

goodreads

It’s 65 pages short and definitely caught my eye because of how much that title makes my eyes turn into hearts. From what I can see it has an asexual woman falling in love with a robot?? Will pick this up soon and come back to you with how that works.

Orlando by Virginia Woolf

goodreads

A classic that I need to read. Orlando changes gender midway in the book, so I don’t yet know what category that makes this book, but that might be the point.

Wilder Girls by Rory Power

goodreads

Queer girls at an all-girl boarding school. Sounds promising, especially as it’s marked as horror with some kind of deadly infection spreading.

Let me know if you’ve read any of these books and if you liked them! Please link your post if you’re participating so I see it and recommend any LGBTQ books you’ve loved.

      I read the free heartstopper web comics that continued where vol 1 left off because I couldn’t wait! So want vol 2 in physical form though. The cybernetic tea shop is really that great!!! 🌸
