Now that June’s coming up and we also will have a Pride read-along, what are your favorite LGBTQ+/Queer books of all time? ☺️

I feel like I haven’t had the best luck with fantasy books. I’ve probably only given one or two a full 5 stars. So I’m here asking for recs. If you had to pick just one fantasy book that’s at the top of your list, what would it be? And if picking one is way too hard, feel free to give me your top three. Bonus points if it doesn’t have spice. No shade to anyone who likes it in their fantasy or romantasy of course, but I think I prefer the spice in just my romance reads.

Hey guys, so my uncle adopted a little boy and I want to expose him to the wonders of reading. I'm looking for good representation books of POC so he can read and identify with the characters. The problem is I cannot find many books with the main character being a POC. Can you guys help me please.

Reading them linearly feels painful to me in a way I can't describe. It feels as if the book will never end. It's not exactly hard to see the progress as usual, but I feel like I'm starting something and ending something over and over again, which brings about this feeling of desperation in me. My brain immediately wants to be done with the book entirely after finishing a story, but there's still more shorts to go. But then again, skipping around the book is not perfect either. I end up feeling extremely disorganised. Randomly opening up a story, reading it and then randomly picking up another irks something in me that wants to see the stories finished like dominoes, one at a time. It's hard enough being spontaneous to read a short story collection in the first place, you know I usually do end up skipping around the book regardless, and reading alongside another book to make the whole thing feel like a side quest. But I would love to know how you tackle anthologies on your own. Also, any good recommendations? So far, I've been reading from authors I'm obsessed with and haven't ventured to anthologies from a collection of authors.
