Bookbee I noticed that 3 books on this list are written by women:

#242 The Definitive Albert J. Sterne by Julie Bozza
#242 Ten in the Bin by N.R. Walker (don't know why these two books have the same number)
#326 The Front Runner by Patricia Nell Warren


message 2: by Lori S. (new)

Lori S. Thanks, I will remove them from the list.
Lori


message 3: by Lori S. (new)

Lori S. OK I notice a number of people have votes for Josh Lanyon's books - in the wake of her recent, erm, outing, I need to remove those books. >sigh< :(


message 4: by Fanie (new)

Fanie Is anyone keeping this list up to date?
There is a definite need for this. There are hundreds of women out there writing M/M.
While there is some good stuff, most women think of gay men as having the emotional stability of a teenage girl.
It drives me bonkers!

I do come in and add books if I can - and people are definitely welcome to add new books as they find them. Please feel free!

Thanks! I knew it was on there, just not sure where. I will remove it.

It would be so helpful if these lists were searchable. :)

Which number?

#135 at present (sorry for the delayed reply!)

Erin It looks like Naked (#103) is also a memoir.

Lori S. A Secret Edge by Robin Reardon, who identifies as a cis, white, female on her website, has been removed. Please pay attention to the Request above. Male writers only. Thank you.


message 18: by ZAKULF (new)

ZAKULF I have only one thing to say :

Thank you. Yep, that's it.

You're welcome. ☺


message 20: by Brian (new)

Brian Malloy Poppy Z Brite is a female. She is list as the author of The Crow: The Lazarus Heart. Please remove from this list. Thanks.


message 21: by Brian (new)

Brian Malloy I don't see any evidence that When You Find Me by P.J. Vernon has any gay content. The tags on Goodreads do not list LGBT or any gay designation. Likely the book should be removed from this list.


message 22: by Rainbowheart (new)

Rainbowheart Removed a book by Martess Dowling, which is not fiction and not by a male author. Dowling is female per her website.


message 23: by Reader (new)

Reader Both books by Alexis Hall should be removed, she is a woman
