Queereaders discussion

We're now accepting nominations for May - June.

Please read the rules below for nominating BEFORE you create your post!! And check our bookshelves to be sure you are not nominating something we have already read as a group!

Only ONE nomination per person.

Please be sure to post the title and author.

Authors may not nominate their own books.

Please add your selections here. Once we get a sufficient number of titles, I will start up a poll. Each person may choose one title.

Remember, the authors should be gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender, or feature significant gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender characters in their work. Queer can be interpreted as broadly as we like.

Any genre (SF/fantasy, horror, romance, mystery), non-fiction, and classics are acceptable. Based on this criteria, we should have plenty of books to choose from. If you are nominating a title that is part of a series, please make sure to nominate the first book, unless we have already read it as a group.

The book discussion will start May 1 and continue through the end of June. This should give everyone sufficient time to obtain and read the book.

I will nominate You Are Not a Stranger Here by Adam Haslett

I will nominate Not My Father's Son by Alan Cumming

I nominate Lord of the White Hell.

I nominate Wraeththu by Storm Constantine a fascinating fully LGBT epic fantasy!

Huston, please read the rules carefully. Authors cannot nominate their own books.
