I’m still working on Out of the Shadows: Reimagining Gay Men's Lives by Walt Odets. I’m about to pick up Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke for a group read in another GR group.

The Kindom by Jess Rothenberg - one I’ve been excited about for a while!
Sissy: A Coming-of-Gender Story by Jacob Tobia. Really enjoying my time with this book.

I loved this book. Hope you enjoy it too.

I am currently reading The Optimist’s Daughter by Eudora Welty. It’s an easy read after experiencing the complex emotional roller coaster of Call Me By Your Name. But it contains shrewd observations of human nature, particularly of the rural Deep South. It’s funny, too.

Amazing story-telling, Andrew. Clever stuff.
August saw two LGBT books that I would recommend: Truman Capote's Other Rooms, Other Voices and Andre Aciman's Call Me By Your Name.
Since my last post I have read Head In The Sand by Damien Boyd, Nocturnes: Five Stories of Music and Nightfall by Kazuo Ishigoru and Blackfish City by Sam J Miller. I am currently reading War with the Newts by Karel Capek and still listening to Boy Erased: A Memoir by Garrard Conley.
Bill wrote: "Now reading Cry to Heaven by Anne Rice"I love that book. More than her Vampire Chronicles, even.
I am currently reading Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell. It’s very long and I like to read slowly. So it will take a long time to read. But I do like Victorian novels.
