I'm really enjoying having a place to discuss my #queerbooks feelings (and sometimes they're all caps FEELINGS). Hopefully the people in the #qgp2 circle enjoy reading them too! 😂 #queersgopostal #queergoespostal

Bibliogeekery I'm enjoying reading everyone's thoughts and feelings - and writing my own 😍 7y

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. 7y
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. 7y
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. 7y

WHERE HAVE I BEEN!? For round 2 of #queersgopostal, I received Angels in America. I read it while simultaneously watching the HBO production and I must say, I was glued to this story for SIX HOURS last night. It was thrilling, daring, hilarious, tender, and as somebody who loves Rent and HBO's "Looking," I was in my happy place. This is an epic play about life/death/AIDS and I would have missed out on the magic without @Susannah !

I ❤️ Prior. ⬇️

BooksForEmpathy PS: Angels in America is coming next year to Berkeley Rep!! I am seeing it for sure 😊. #QGP2 @Bibliogeekery (edited) 8y

Dragon I have the DVD set. It's my all time favourite miniseries. Every time I see Central Park's Bathesda fountain I think of Angels in America. 8y
Susannah Love this! The new London production from the National Theatre is going to be shown in my town this summer, and I hope I don't miss it! ❤️ 8y
