When Oberon develops late powers from a generational mutation, he relies on his own projection guide to help him through the ensuing crisis. I don‘t remember why I picked this up, but it was a fun read. Beautiful art and a saga of character development facing your own fears and destructive anxieties. This had a lot of fun twists and turns. There are a few things that are a bit weak, but not so weak that the story is unenjoyable. #LGBTQIA #Comics

Two manga artists who love each other‘s work strike up a fake dating relationship for no reason? (There was a reason, I just can‘t remember because it wasn‘t compelling). This manga is just ok. It‘s cute, and will probably be great for the right reader. I was not very invested in the characters‘ relationship until pretty late in this volume, which wasn‘t enough to make me want to read the next one. #manga #Artist #LGBTQIA

A wild dash through two-spirit and indigiqueer speculative fiction. I enjoyed exploring these writers‘ world experiences, hopes, and fears through this collection. The stories are dire, making this a difficult read at times. #LGBTQIA #Indigenous #ShortStories

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

After husbands Isaiah and Derek are mysteriously murdered, their father‘s team up to find the culprits and take revenge. Lots of violence, but I love that.

Some aspects seemed a little too contrived for me and predictable but it was a fun read. Quickly becoming a fan of SA Crosby! Thanks #camplitsy25 for introducing me to him. 😃

TieDyeDude I feel like some aspects of his stories are always a little cliché, but they come from a different enough perspective that it is forgivable. Plus, he's just such a good writer! 3d
Kitta @TieDyeDude yes! That‘s why it‘s not a 5* for me, King of Ashes was though. Loved that one. 3d
Kenyazero Sounds interesting! 2d
Kitta @Kenyazero it was! It‘s mostly about two fathers who were previously not supportive coming to terms with their sons sexuality - plus a lot of violence and revenge! Fun thriller. 5h

Read this back in July & absolutely loved it!
It's a story about two opposites who must work together in a small town PA restaurant. Greg is an extroverted bartender who left his extravagant NYC life behind after getting into too much debt. Julian is an introverted sommelier whose OCD makes it hard for him to accept change & let anyone close. Once they get over their initial skepticism of each other, they strike up a friends w benefits situation⬇️

peanutnine Their relationship was so sweet (and sexy). Greg has erectile dysfunction due to mental health meds and Julian struggles with cleanliness bc of his OCD. They both meet each other with openness & compassion, growing and working through trauma. It's very much a character driven story (they're trying to save the family restaurant, did I mention that?) and they each have to decide what it means to find a home #14books14weeks #LGBTQIA2025 @Kenyazero 4d
Kenyazero This sounds adorable ♥️ 4d

A complex cast of characters find themselves ripped from their lives when their latent magical powers emerge. In their new magical home that may be slowly dying, everyone has their own reasons for wanting to leave or stay. If you enjoy not-quite-rooting for gray characters in tenuous situations, this is a good one for you. I wish the mom got to be more than just a mom. #LGBTQIA #Witches

I listened to the audio of this book but had to show off my pretty special edition! 😍 I LOVED the story!! Give me pirates and demons and untapped magical potential, yes please! The found family aspect was especially lovely, as Mar struggles to trust in their relationships with others
I'm so glad #riseupreads gave me an excuse to finally read this one! @Catsandbooks

The story and character relationships continue to develop as Alto and Elva band together with new and old allies to solve the newly discovered supernatural and political problems of the island. Some hilarious and adorable moments tucked into all of the seriousness. #LGBTQIA #Fantasy #Manga

Leo and Grim begrudgingly go on a quest together to remove a curse that binds them together. This was such an incredibly fun read! Adventure around every turn of the page. I wound up reading through the climax twice before finishing the book to take it all in again. #LGBTQIA #MusicMagic #Fantasy

This volume of jaye simpson‘s poems is turbulent, capturing the hard and soft edges of being trans, woman, and indigenous. The collection is intriguing, varied in form, and interesting to read. I‘m glad I picked it up. #Poetry #LGBTQIA
