Juggling my degree reading, but isolation = unemployment for now so I'm also reading Tell it to the Bees and it's amazing. Actually brilliant. Proper fluffy, which is what I think we need right now!
starting a book by Lenin about Hungary. any other commies of the community here? lol
I took a break from reading The Perfume Collector and reread My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness and also The Exploits of Moominpappa, the last one being very very cute
After taking a break and not reading at all in February and March, I finally finished the book I started in January and started a new book, Full House by Maeve Binchy.
I am reading The Sun and Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur!
Real Life by Brandon TaylorUnleash Your Inner Tudor: Henry VIII’s Inspirational Guide to a Completely Sizzling, Sparkly, Tyrannical, Much Wider, Demanding, and Sexier You
Turning to a Judy Blume classic for my next read, Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret.
Still working on Altered Carbon. Also, more actively reading, Call Me By Your Name, Twisted Blade in the Arena, Planet of the Apes Archive, Vol. 3: Quest for the Planet of the Apes and About Time 3: The Unauthorized Guide to Doctor Who. And a bunch of Doctor Who and other Whoniverse audio books.
Vampires and Violets: Lesbians in Film by Andrea Weiss. I've almost finished it and I'm already sad. Maybe I should write the follow-up book ...

I'm not crazy about how the "chapters" are broken down, but I am very much liking the bond between the brothers, as well as their neighborhood setting. That may be partly due to the fact that my father came from a similar Italian neighborhood.
FYI, I'm reading it on Kindle, and am about 25% done.
A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park.
I just read an email from someone I love ... who apparently just broke up with me. So I will need a couple of good books and bottles this weekend to keep my mind busy.
Oh no! That’s awful Mr. Jones! By email?!?! What a rotten way to break up with someone!!! I hope you’re holding up play. I know how it feels, been there, done that! Time to break out the Ben & Jerry’s!!!🍨
Thanks, Jason! I honestly don't know what I have done to deserve this. I mean it's complicated and it has always been complicated... but I thought I'd deserve at least a phone call. Silly me.Ben & Jerry's is a pretty good idea :)
Our book club is reading Southern. Gay. Teacher. by Randy Flair. After 25 years of meeting monthly in person, we had our first Zoom book club meeting. Times change...
Paul Monette1] Wish I had read this book twenty or even 50 years ago! Worthy read for gay men and boys or the ones who love them.
I'm reading Jonny Appleseed for my LGBT+ book club. It's about a queer/two spirit Native American and their life growing up on a reservation
I've read the first story in The Science Fiction Hall of Fame: Volume One, 1929-1964. This looks like one that I'll pick up on occasion rather than read straight through.
