I‘ve made it to a blackout bingo on the LGBTQ bingo I started this year. I‘ve been enjoying seeing what everyone else is reading for the prompts, and look forward to seeing more book choices in the coming months. And if you want to join in on this fun bingo, it‘s not too late! This is a year-long bingo! #BookBingo #LGBTQBookBingo2021 #LGBTQ2021

kaysworld1 I love queer books but my favourite is fining love when there mature not school age. 3y
Kenyazero @kaysworld1 Me too! A lot of queer books are aimed at school age people, and I think it‘s because that population is the most vulnerable to societal harm, so many authors want to offer them comfort through books. I‘ve found quite a lot of excellent adult romance with lgbtq+ characters, though! 3y

I loved this! The writing was great, the character development was fantastic and the teenagers behaved like teenagers which is sometimes rare in YA novels.

This was a very affirming read and exactly what I needed.

Adding to the lgbtq+ bingo as coming out scene

PuddleJumper @Kenyazero It's super cute, well deserving of the hype. I'm glad I gave in and read it! 3y

I think this is one of the sweetest and cutest GN romances I have ever read! It reminds me a lot of Bloom, another m/m GN romance. I can see why Maya and her friends are currently obsessed with this series! #lgbtq2021 #comingoutstory

wanderinglynn Love that water bottle! 💜🌈🐱 3y
Nutmegnc I just finished volume 4! So worth the wait!!! 3y

Beyond the Gender Binary | Alok Vaid-Menon

Another excellent pocket change collective book. This one I will definitely recommend to a few parents I know who are struggling to understand what it means when their teen or their child‘s friend identifies as non-binary and/or gender-non confirming. Alok talks about their experience growing up and how society forced them to hide how they truly felt.

This short book - almost a manifesto - brings up a lot of meaningful conversations that are often ignored. Adam Eli, a gay, Jewish cisgender man, highlights the point of starting to think about the idea of queerness as a global community. I look forward to reading the rest of the books in the Pocket Change Collective!

I‘m at 6hr 40 min for #AnyWayYouReadathon

MidnightBookGirl I will have to check the Pocket Change Collective books out! 3y
alisiakae @MidnightBookGirl I might listen to this one next while I work on a puzzle today, written by a climate change activist 3y

It's been a while since I posted a reading challenge update! I finally have some bingos on #LGBTQBookBingo2021 (3 of them!), so my next goal is a blackout by the end of the year. It's been so much fun seeing what you're all reading! #LGBTQ2021 #BookBingo #ReadingChallenge
