"Tunes for a Small Harmonica" by Barbara Wersba. "Sailor Moon" (manga and uncensored japanese anime) - Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune are a lesbian couple. "Guitar Girl" There was one mention of same-sex feelings that I can remember. "Skinny" The main character used to date a girl and there's a kinky love scene in the book.
I could recommend my book Confessions Of A Nobody 'Mistreated' This is my first book in the biography series Confessions Of A Nobody. The book unveils important issues such as gender identity, religious morals, child abuse, corporal punishment, parental neglect and bullying; while also giving a very personal insight into living through these controversial experiences. However, the focus remains on positivity and what can be achieved when you turn your life around. Born in a male body that lacked an Adam’s-apple I was christened with a boys’ name. From birth I always identified herself as a girl and at the early age of five I was confused by the boundaries of what was allowed by my parents. In the book I jest “when my mother made me play with an action man, I knitted him a cardigan.” The years of abuse, self-harm and numerous dark incidents that followed this put immense pressure on me. But I lived from crisis to crisis always moving on and searching desperately for a little happiness in life. The motivation to write these books came from a song by Tracy Chapman called Tell it like it is. The books names were inspired by a song from the artist P!nk entitled Perfect; Mistreated, Misplaced and Misunderstood in the quest to be Ms Perry. “A powerful new book!” Anthony Millar, The Sunday Life Newspaper “An honest, heart-breaking and personal account.” Vinny Hurrell, Blast 106 Radio. The book is available now worldwide to download on kindle and on paperback via Amazon websites. Do let me know your thoughts? Stay Blessed
"Something Like Summer" by Jay Bell. It's a part of the Seasons series. 4 books in total. It's a young adult book consists of love and pain on the process. You guys should try it.
So I just finished reading this amazing lebian book. its called fated love by radyclyffe (spelled similar) and i am starting down to the bone, which has been great so far
I'm currently reading A Gathering Storm by Jameson Currier. It's inspired by the murder of Matthew Shepard and other hate crimes. It's about a young gay man who is a college student in the South. He's attacked by two men, and the book focuses on the attack, his time in the hospital, and the events that both led up to and result from the attack. It's good.
The Miseducation of Cameron Post!! Loved it, but I read it a couple years ago so who knows if I would like it now. It's about a lesbian teen
Shy Girl - Elizabeth Stark Annie On My Mind and The Year They Burned The Books - Nancy Garden We Are Water - Wally Lamb Blue Is The Warmest Color (it's actually a comic book, but so, so good! It has a movie adapted from the book. I don't really recommend it, though) - Julie Maroh Sing You Home - Jodi Picoult Keeping You A Secret - Julie Anne Peters I recently found a site called WattPad. It's a site where authors can publish their stories, poetry, etc and have it seen/voted/commented on by a community. There are tons of LGBT stories on there. Some are actually quite good.
Keeping You A Secret - Julie Anne Peters (Really good and shows both the positive and negative reactions to coming out of the closet. It's realistic too and I like that.) Breaking Out - Garry M. Tuckwell (Super duper good, couldn't even put the book down)
I just bought "Whipping Girl" by Julia Serano. I just saw it when I was bored in the book store and bought it on impulse knowing next to nothing about it save for what the back of the book and its Wikipedia page says, lol. But it seems interesting, so far.
As soon as I realized I liked girls, I spent that first week reading nearly non-stop. Most of them were YA fiction, but they were great nonetheless: Empress of the World by Sara Ryan Time it Right by Siera Maley Tell me Again how a Crush Should Feel by Sara Farizan She's my Ride Home by Jackie Bushore No One Needs to Know by Amanda Grace My Best Friend, Maybe by Caela Carter Her Name in the Sky by Kelly Quindlen I'm currently into the non-fiction books.... Here are a few I've read: What If? Answers to Questions About What it Means to be Gay by Eric Marcus Is It A Choice? 3rd Edition by Eric Marcus The Letter Q by Sarah Moon I purchased 10 books for my kindle in 3 weeks and have read all of them at least once. I'm hoping that anyone can make some suggestions for more non-fiction books? Please?
I read Keeping You a Secret by Julie Anne Peters, a couple of weeks and I loved it. I also loved Openly Straight. Also, in terms of short story collections, I loved One in Every Crowd by Ivan E. Coyote.
I'll add two of my favorite books from 2014 to the list (both YA because that's most of what i read). Grasshopper Jungle by Andrew Smith, Austin tries to make sense of his love for his girlfriend and gay best friend while giant, horny, human-eating grasshoppers start taking over his town. Everything Leads To You by Nina LaCour, a beautifully written story about two girls falling in love while helping to put together an independent movie, complete with a mystery about one of the girls' parents.
Hey buddies, has anyone here read proxy? It looks like a good book but they don't sell it on my country
