90s Taiwanese punk lit
After the lifting of martial law in 1987, Taiwan’s rapid democratisation nurtured a vibrant counter-culture, including a wave of literature marked by stylistic experimentation, marginal voices, and a critical questioning of state narratives.
This period is often described as the “golden age” of tóngzhì (同志) lit, in which writers placed lesbian, gay and queer experiences at the centre of innovative, politically charged work.

This is your sign to dive headfirst into epistolary literature
Behold: yet another of my 2 a.m. deep dives - this time into epistolary literature! The list starts with some of the earliest examples of the form and follows it into the present day, from stories told through letters and diaries to those built from emails, texts, transcripts, and other documents. Whether you’re a longtime fan or completely new to this genre, what interests you most about it?
(A quick note: I put this list together using Wikipedia, blog posts, and Reddit threads. I did my best to keep everything in chronological order, but a few mistakes may have slipped through - it was 2 a.m., after all. If you have any suggestions on what else I should add, I’d love to hear it!)

Reading books from around the world
A ever-growing list of all the books I'm reading for a "reading around the world" challenge: trying to read (at least) one book from every country in the world. I'm picking books based on different criteria, for example, i'm trying to pick LGBTQ books, books written by immigrants and other stories that are important to hear from around the world.
