Bill | 465 comments I recently finished Jersey Queens: Darling & Delightful at the Gay Bars in the 50s & 60s by Phillip Crawford Jr.; a fascinating look at the harassment of and responses of gay bars and their patrons in New Jersey in the 20 years prior to Stonewall.

Now I'm reading The White Guard by Mikhail Bulgakov, historical fiction about Ukraine circa 1918.

Zale (prince_zale) | 4 comments Tried to read Love at First Spite, hated it, DNF. Now reading The Roughest Draft, only a couple pages in. Previous to Lobe at First Spite, I read Boyfriend Material and loved it.

Richard Derus (expendablemudge) | 54 comments I've finished and reviewed First Time for Everything First Time for Everything by Henry Fry by Henry Fry, which made me laugh immoderately and sniffle covertly and squirm guiltily.

Not bad for a debut author!

Zale (prince_zale) | 4 comments Already replied to this thread but I DNF’d The Roughest Draft, too. I then read Something to Talk about, and am currently reading through Alexandria Bellefleur’s Written in the Stars series. Both have been good to me. Oh, I also read Delilah Green Doesn’t Care and that was great.

Pinoy Grigio | 1 comments Started readig again this month and a bit last month. I finished They Both Die at the End Going Down For The Count and Burn It All Down. The last two were comedies. The first one, sad, but underwhelming. I'm currently starting the last chapter of Less. It's a meandering book about middle aged gayness, as he travels around the world finding himself again. There's something to relate to for everyone, but I can't help feeling I would have loved this book in my 40s-60s. I'm 27.
