A Few Recs
I've been promising links to a few of my favourite GLBT books.
The first is Kirith Kirin. I reviewed it before and it maintains a very high spot on my favourite book list. A small caveat - I would not read the continuation of the series. It devolves into a weird world that I didn't enjoy.
Lynn Flewelling. No, srsly. She has two series - Nightrunner series feature a gay couple as the two main heroes. Every book (but the last one which I hated) is well written. I have high hopes for the next book as the author took the concrit and worked on the issues and promised to improve the issues. So give this series a try.
The second series is Tamir Trilogy features a transgendered heroine. It's a fantastic concept and it's fairly well executed. I quite like this series.
So there are some of my favourite books. Do you have any recommendations?
Finally, a few more fandom things - I've been promising a link to this story - Why Sex Ed Should Stay in Schools - it's a Sesame Street slash story and omg. The lulz. I talked about this at Terminus a lot. I've talked about this story in chats and on vacation and just go read it. It's seriously amazingly crackalicious.
Verbotene Liebe playlist. Srsly awesome in a semi-poorly-acted German and subtitled sort of way.

I'll have to check out those books. The local library looks to have them so I'll definitely have to request them.
I'll also look up Peter, as well. I've been reading some books that aren't the best written stories nor are they completely to my taste but I'm enjoying them nonetheless (if that makes any sense in my contradictory manner).
I don't remember any books about being gay in my schools growing up. I grew up in a very small town in the middle of south central PA that was very narrowminded and bigoted so I'm quite certain that was exactly the reason why I didn't even get teh concept of "gay" until high school when I moved to a larger town and met a very good friend of mine that happened to be gay. I remember the way that he laughed at me as i was all o.O but.... and then we bonded over that and his coming out and the way that I was all o.O over my own sexuality and stuffs. I think he made it easier for me to question and wonder and "decide". (again, if that makes sense)
But anyway - all that ramble and aside-edness to say that I'm definitely planning on checking those books out. <3
