Compound Fracture | Andrew Joseph White

Really interested in the main character but I couldn't take the awfulness of the situation.

General consensus was to have one author in May and the other in June.

So May‘s #QueerBC author will be Neon Yang!

What do you think you'll read? If you've got any recommendations, drop them in the comments

Don't forget April we're reading Alan Hollinghurst and poetry by Ocean Vuong

willaful I didn't get into The Black Tides of Heaven so I'm thinking I'll start with a short story and see how that goes. 51m
PuddleJumper @TheBookHippie Hope they keep them! 43m
PuddleJumper @willaful I'd only heard of The Black Tides of Heaven and the new one Brighter than Scale, Swifter than Flame 42m
willaful @TheBookHippie I've been doing that too, will go check my library out now. It's nice to check out physical books and not have to worry about wasting an expensive ebook loan! 37m
Jari-chan I just got a recommendation for Brighter Than Scale today - perfect! 25m

There's a tie between Neon Yang and Zen Cho for May's #QueerBC author

This is the first time this has happened, so we can have a tie breaker or have both authors

Let me know what you would prefer

rwmg I'd have one of the two authors for May and one for June 9h
PuddleJumper @rwmg That is also an option 9h

TheBookHippie May then June is good for me too 7h
peanutnine Yes, I like the idea of doing them back to back! 7h

Pickpick

These poems really unsettled me. The stories Vuong tells here hit me deep and more than once I could relate to the texts. What an impressive writer he is. His voice vibrates and resonates with my soul. Deeply.

Thank you to everyone that gave their feedback on #QueerBC It's been really useful reading it all

I'm going to include more information about the authors and more reminders of the monthly authors. It's easy to lose track when everything is a month in advance.

There were several requests for an end of month discussion or check in post. How you enjoyed the author etc.

⬇️

PuddleJumper 1. I don't have the time to do this and often I don't read the authors until several months later so can't really contribute.

Would anyone want to take this on? Or we could rotate it each month.

PuddleJumper 2. You'd just need to make a post and I can share the tag list with you. Feel free to format it however you want.

If interested email me at eommods@gmail.com

PuddleJumper 3. Thanks again to everyone! I'm really enjoying this book club and I'm so happy other people are enjoying it too.

Looking forward to another awesome year of discovering new authors and books!

Kenyazero I could see us rotating reminders and discussions, if anyone was up for that? Otherwise, I'm intrigued by the forums on storygraph that you worked hard to put together if there was a way to use those without excluding anyone? 🤔 1w
PuddleJumper @Kenyazero SG is definitely more geared towards discussions. You don't get notified when someone posts on a forum though, you would have to check which can be tedious. I reckon about half the members are part of the book club, you do have to have an account which might put people off 1w
Kenyazero @PuddleJumper I was thinking similar things about the limitations of that platform. 1w
PuddleJumper @Kenyazero I was hoping that people who wanted more discussion would go over to SG 😅 1w

Butterfinger Burial Rites has been in my sight since it was published. I just have never had a chance to read it. Yet. 2w
PuddleJumper @BookmarkTavern An impossible choice, I agree! 2w
PuddleJumper @Butterfinger I've not seen much hype around her books. It's not an author I know 2w
