Welcome to Litsy!

Just got these 5 books in a personalized book bundle from the New York Public Library. I've never heard of any of them and cannot wait to get started reading!

#JuneTunz #IKissedAGirl Here is my pick for today's prompt. I coincidentally picked it up at the library yesterday. It's a really great book that I can't wait to get into. Thanks for picking my prompt @Cinfhen !!! ❤️❤️📚📚

Happy, happy #NationalComingOutDay to all my friends and human beings! I loved this #queer #memoir for its frankness and punk Canadian sense of place. #memorablememoirs #booktober

This book is so amazing. So powerful. So raw. And so beautiful. I love it so much and I feel blessed and honored to have been able to read it. Leah is such an amazing writer and person and I cannot say enough good things about her and about this book!!!

It's been a hard week for queer folks of color & trans women of color. I'm also mourning fresh for the 9 black folks killed last yr in Charleston. In all this pain, I'm trying to dream my way home. Leah's book is a queer woman of color survivor's memoir.

Just about to crack open some radical memoir...

Once upon a time a queer femme of colour ran away to find freedom. She found it by creating a home and an identity. This is her story, poetic and honest. #queerbooks

I realize how much it is branded in my heart, that to be happy, alone, and childless is a fucking gift that most women get brainwashed into relinquishing.

"I got on the Greyhound to Toronto at Port Authority in New York when I was 21, with two backpacks, a tight black vintage slip and a pair of 14-hole Docs. That was it. You only need one outfit if it's fabulous."

Preface

Let's get something straight: surviving abuse as a choose-your-own-adventure novel.

How it starts is: I'm supposed to go on an anarchist vacation, but my boyfriend doesn't show up. So I go by myself and I don't come back.
