Castor | Shaun Young

We temporarily abandoned this as our read aloud book when the new Harry Potter was available but my partner and I are turning back to this one for our drive up to cottage country tonight. Castor is a #Netgalley find that is a sci-fi folks-colonizing-other-planets, young-servant-boy-falls-in-love-with-master's-son, people-plan-to-rise-up kind of tale. #queerbooks #queerscifi

Sue I love finding obscure but awesome stuff on netgalley. This sounds great! 9y

BookishFeminist Oo I think I'll request this on Netgalley now! Love that you and your partner read aloud to each other. 9y

Okay look at these cheesy ass cover...How could I resist this book? 😆😆 Started it tonight and it's pretty good so far! Description: Lesbian sci-fi story that takes place on another planet and creates a forbidden, stars-crossed lovers situation between the leader of the elite oligarchy and a member of an anarchist group. 🙌🏽❤️👍🏽‼️👌🏼💁🏻👀

Zelma That sounds awesome. Don't you hate when you have to tell people to ignore the cover? 😆 9y

BookishFeminist This sounds like some inspiration for that new space opera we were going to write with @shortstack! 😂 9y

brendanmleonard That sounds way better than the cover! 🤘 = the emoji for revolution. 9y

Sue Sold!! 9y

Megabooks Yes, the cover sucks!! Is there any land on the planet on the cover? Hmmm.... Other than that, it seems you've found something cool. #dontjudgeabook 9y

Bibliogeekery Sounds interesting! I feel like I'm read the male version of this book right now called Castor. It's not in the Litsy catalogue. #queerbooks #queerscifi 9y

Yamich49 @Zelma Yes! Although I do kind of love cheesy covers - but I'm sure they turn off a lot of potential readers/buyers. 😆 9y

Yamich49 @BookishFeminist Right?!? I'll take some notes as I read through it so we can get some inspiration for our story! 😉😆 9y

Yamich49 @brendanmleonard Right? 🤘🏼 9y

Yamich49 @Ebooksandcooks You know, that's a good question. It's kind of hard to tell- it's not a very detailed picture of the planet. Maybe it'll end up being about two giant aliens with only heads who make out in space above landless planets? 😂 9y

Yamich49 @Bibliogeekery It is pretty interesting so far. With that premise, it would be difficult to write a boring story but we shall see. This one is missing the "The" in the title on Litsy so it was a bit hard to find. Castor sounds interesting, I only recently got into sci fi books so I'm always happy to get new recs. Especially for #queerscifi! 9y
