Queereaders discussion

I'm still reading My Ex-Life, but then, last weekend was busy in my personal life. I'm also thinking of reading Writing Young Adult Fiction for Dummies.

Bring up the bodies, the sequel to Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel. Absolutely love both

I started American War by Omar El Akkad in December but didn't have much time to read over the holidays. It's a dystopian story about a future US after the Second Civil War.

Shooting through the comics I got for Christmas. Right now I'm on Batman '66 Vol. 4

It was more or less by accident that I stumbled across Days Without End by Sebastian Barry.

It's the 1850's in the US and Irish bloke Thomas McNulty and his friend John Cole sign up for army, because they have just lost their jobs as dancing girls in a saloon. Now it's fighting in the Indian Wars and the Civil War.
Both, Thomas and John have more to share than just some fond memory.

While (or because) an "Indian War" novel is way out of my usual reading comfort zone, that book hit me hard. I fell in love right away. With the rough way in which Thomas tells their story and with the beautific and poetic descriptions of sad battles that happen.

Really happy I found this gem.

I finished Daybreak Zero a near future civilization-collapse novel, 2nd book of a trilogy. Time Storm a 1972 SciFi by Gordon R. Dickson. The Dog Stars a Literary Fiction/SciFi by Peter Heller

I started A Strong and Sudden Thaw by RW Day a Gay Sci/Fi-Fantasy.

The Comedienne by rather amusing lesbian comic, V.G. Lee.

The End of Eddy by Edouard Louis, a coming out story set in an industrial city in France.

I've been really close to finishing Children of Blood and Bone for a very long time. I love what I've read so far, I just haven't been in a fantasy kind of mood. I hope I get around to finishing it soon!

I also recently started The Infinite Pieces of Us and might not finish it, unfortunately. There's not much of a plot and I don't love the characters so far.

Just finished Ignorance is Blitz: Mangled Moments of History From Actual College Students. Pretty funny.

I'm reading Annie on My Mind by Nancy Garden.

I started book three of The Daybreak trilogy, The Last President by John Barnes

One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

The Unfinished Clue by Georgette Heyer, a mystery/crime novel, published in 1933.

Ooh, I read that in 1988 in my last year at school, I think. How's it looking, Lucia? ...

Just read the synopsis for Sworn to the Night Amy and it sounds amazing! Downloading that when I get in 😊

Great, i already finished it, i loved it

The Heart's Invisible Furies - I loved Boyne’s The Absolutist and the writing in this is living up to that already.

The ladies guide to petticoats and piracy, it’s got off to a strong start!

I just started Alliance Rising my favorite author's most recent novel, CJ Cherryh, a prequel in her Alliance-Union Universe.

Miss Lonelyhearts by Nathanael West.

I, Claudius by Robert Graves.

I finished Carry On and Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda for the start of my 2019 reading challenge.

Reading The Night Language by David Rocklin; LGBT historical fiction about a young African man brought to Queen Victoria's court.

The binding. New release that I’m mega excited about!

I read Annie on My Mind based on all the suggestions here, loved it! I'm also about to finish If I Was Your Girl which I've been super absorbed in, I just started this morning.

I just finished CJ Cherryh's Alliance Rising an exquisite prequel (or first book) in her Union Alliance Universe. The detail and density of the novel reminds me of that in her Foreigner series. It's an exciting political SF which is resolved, but leaves questions open for sequels. I am excited.

I started Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare, something simpler, yet still fun and exciting.

The Member of the Wedding by Carson McCullers. This is one of the books that I read in high school and have decided to reread.

Like People in History by Felice Picano and Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

Me Before You by Jojo Moyes.

Just finished a thousand splendid suns (loved it) and just starting on the boneless mercies. I’m determined to read more in 2019!!

I finished 2 books: Who Goes There? by John W. Campbell and the bases of the various The Thing movies. And, Out of the Ashes by RW Day, book 2 of his LGBTQ SciFi series A Strong and Sudden Thaw #2. Excellent!

I started The Akhenaten Adventure (Children of the Lamp #1) by PB Kerr a long YA Fantasy series about tweens who are Djinn.

I'm about to start The Man Who Fell In Love With The Moon by Tom Spanbauer, about a biracial, bisexual boy in the Old West.

The Book of Dave: A Revelation of the Recent Past and the Distant Future by Will Self. Not for the faint-hearted!

I loved this novel and now wished I'd reviewed it.

I’m currently reading three different books for school; Eddie would go, the road and never let me go. But for myself im focusing on comics so im reading deadly class by rick remember
