I returned six books and checked out eleven more. (In my defense, two of the new ones are really small...)

LiteraryinPA That bag makes me so happy! 5y
CaitZ I'm "trying" to return all my library books so I can start the new year reading books I own. Went to the library today returned 1 book and checked 2 out. I have no self control 5y

Day 2 of the @bookriot #Riotgrams challenge: Local library! Our library is beautiful inside and out, but also very small, so most of the books are held in a not-as-pretty annex across the street. 📚📚📚

Linsy So pretty!!! 6y
LibrarianRyan If that is your library it does not look small at all. But it is beautiful. 6y

Here is no surprise of what happens, when my parents give me money to shop for my own Christmas presents. 😄 Walmart Spider-Man track pants, and a Hot Topic velvet skater skirt. ❄️ Winter cozy layering is my favoured style; some good fun, partly in my own cash away from the Grinch tree. More for TBR books will definitely be next up. Thanks as always to the Hot Topic team. 🤓 Chats on gender and cosplay makes our day!

My book mail cup runneth over today! #qgp1 #queerbooks Thanks @Yellowpigeon!!! 😍📚🎉🎊

Betty Will it go to Calif then Tenn? 7y
Bibliogeekery @Betty I'll be sending it to PR 7y
Betty @Bibliogeekery then from there it goes to Calf then Tenn and California again? Reason I ask is that it has been more than 3 months since I mailed the last book I received ( Luna which @Joybishoptx originally sent out). Could you email the group and let us know the mailing order and books still in the system? Thanks! 7y
Bibliogeekery @Betty yes. That's the order. I do plan to email the group and see where everything is at- you are also most welcome to send out a group email checking in! 7y

Day 23 of the #RiotGrams challenge: book you've owned longest! I don't own a lot of old books, and the ones I do have are packed away. But I do have a second copy of one of of them, which I acquired online (and used to belong to someone named Sarah, I'm guessing.) It's from 1977. The whole series is amazing and it's really due for a reprint. ❤️📚❤️

saguarosally Someone actually owns this book! 😂 #qgp #qgp1 #queergoespostal 8y

Hey #queersgopostal peeps, did any of you see this article? I would love to hear your thoughts! I've really enjoyed participating in #qgp2 because it's exposing me to litfic I wouldn't have read otherwise. At the same time, I get bogged down in the depressing plot lines, especially in books about gay men. Is it a statement about living in a homophobic world? Is it straight people cashing in on queer suffering? How do you feel about it? Link below

CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian I think the writer is leaving out something quite essential about the two lesbian lit fic books she mentions. Both are by queer women of colour about queer women of colour set outside the US. QWOC have very different experiences because of the intersections of racism, sexism, and homophobia so it doesn't make sense to compare those stories to ones about white gay men written by straight white women. 8y
Broke_Girl_Reads @CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian great point! I completely agree that it's not a valid comparison. I wonder if the piece would have been more successful if the writer focused in on analyzing m/m books written by straight women. 8y
CaseyTheCanadianLesbrarian @Broke_Girl_Reads Yeah, I think that would be more succinct. Although it'd be interesting to know if queer authors feel pressure to write one thing or the other. But that's quite different than straight authors only being aware of two options. 8y

Next #QGP2 book arrived today!! So excited because I have not heard of this book at all!!! Also @BooksForEmpathy I had no idea you lived in SF! I grew up there!!! I go back all the time to visit so we have to do a #LitsyIRL Meetup sometime! ❤️🤸🏽‍♀️

BooksForEmpathy Yes please!! Tell me more! Where did you grow up? Where are you now? Enjoy the read :). 8y
Alicia @BooksForEmpathy I grew up in the Richmond- just blocks from Green Apple! In HS we moved to outer mission near Balboa Park. I live in Flagstaff, Az (I know crazy) and got there by way of school/ jobs. My fav area of the city is the Mission, there is nothing like an Sf burrito! How long have you lived there?? Are you from CA? 8y
