AbigailJaneBlog I love fantasy, personally, but I'm up for pretty much all genres - non fiction included! Some reads I'm particularly looking forward to are Genderqueer; The Romantic Agenda; Coven; The Hand, the Eye and the Heart. Lately I have enjoyed Cemetary Boys, Hani and Ishu's Guide to Fake Dating, and everything I've read by TJ Klune 😊 2y

PuddleJumper I like fantasy/sci-fi but I'm open to other genres and non-fiction, I like to expand my reading horizons! Individual books I've got on my TBR are Girls of Paper and Fire, All That's Left in the World, A Marvellous Light, and Once & Future 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @PuddleJumper ooh yeah! Girls of Paper and Fire is on my TBR shelf - good shout 😊 2y

Kenyazero I'm open to everything (but fantasy is my favorite) and don't really have a dedicated, well planned TBR 😅 2y

peanutnine I like fantasy/sci-fi but I'm open to all genres! I'm sure I have plenty of specific titles on my TBR but the only one I can think of atm is So This is Ever After 2y

Nelnjali @peanutnine I read So This Is Ever After recently and absolutely loved it! 2y

Nelnjali My favorite genres are fantasy and sci-fi, and I'm a sucker for a fun rom-com. I'm currently reading A Lady for a Duke. Some of my TBRs include Kiss Her Once for Me, In Deeper Waters, and Cemetery Boys. 2y

AbigailJaneBlog Ah these are all such good suggestions! I love that we seem to be liking similar genres! 2y

peanutnine @Nelnjali ooh I also love a good romcom! In Deeper Waters was very fun and I'm looking forward to reading KHOFM next month 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @peanutnine I'm also planning to read KHOFM next month! If anyone else wants to read it I'm happy to start the club early! 😂😊 2y

psalva This is an exciting book club idea. I am open to any genres but my general TBR goal lately is to to read things nominated for the Lambda Literary Awards. 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @psalva I'm more than happy to add you to the tags! I'm having a look at the lambda list now and there's some great books on there, a few I've read too! Would definitely be open to reading some of those 😊 2y

BookwormAHN I'd like to be added as well and as much as I love a good m/m romance I'm open to other genres. My favorites are usually fantasy or historical fiction 😺 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @BookwormAHN welcome aboard! In the initial post I made it clear that we would make a point to read a range of orientations and gender identities so that's great 😊 2y

Gissy 🙋🏽‍♀️ 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @Gissy glad to have you aboard! 2y

Clare-Dragonfly Yay! I love fantasy and/or YA. I‘m sure I have lots of stuff on my TBR but I don‘t keep track of what‘s queer, I just wait to be pleasantly surprised 😁 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @Clare-Dragonfly surprise queer is the best kind! 2y

Nelnjali @AbigailJaneBlog I'm so hoping that the BOTM clue that just dropped is for Kiss Her Once for Me. If not, I plan on getting it anyway, so I'd love to read it with you all! 2y

GirlNamedJesse Please add me! I‘m game for pretty much everything. I love YA (Aiden Thomas is my favorite author currently; saw some love for Cemetery Boys in above comments) and adult (RWRB!), and also MG, though there‘s a lot less published for that age group. Fantasy, contemporary, sci-fi, dystopia, I love it all. Only type I usually don‘t read is literary, but I‘d never say never. Thanks for putting this together! I can‘t wait. :) 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @Nelnjali fabulous - I look forward to that 😊 Glad to hear from you @GirlNamedJesse - I'll add you to the tags 🌟I'm not usually a litfic fan either so that's fine lol 😂 2y

Clare-Dragonfly I should probably mention that I find myself stacking a lot of the books that @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian reviews favorably! 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @Clare-Dragonfly yes, I do too! Feel free to join us @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian 2y

CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian I'd love to join! I read all genres, as long as it's queer (although I tend not to be too interested in stories by/about cis queer men). I just started KHOFM last night. I really like it so far! 2y

AbigailJaneBlog @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian excellent! It's not a hard commitment thing so you're welcome to join in with whatever books strike your fancy, but there will be definitely be a variety of options to vote from! 2y
