YA LGBT Books discussion

What YA LGBTQ book would you like to read, or do you think members who haven't read it should try, (and those who have read it can discuss), as our BotM for Jan-Feb 2026?

What book made a difference to you, and might to other readers? What sounds interesting, appealing or different that you want to read?

If possible, link the book page on GR and tell us a little about it or why you picked it, or post the blurb.

The titles of past books of the month that we have read are on all the threads in this "Book of the Month" folder, and you can also check with a search of the group's book-of-the-month Bookshelf at -
https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...

Please do not repeat a book we have read as a past Book of the Month - and please only nominate the first book in a series, unless a later book stands alone as a solo read.

Up to two nominations per member. Nominations will be open through Midnight Dec 31st or sooner if we get 8 nominations - the max for voting. Feel free to renominate a book that did not win in a past vote, if it fits this category. (You can find previous nominations in either the old polls (under the "polls" link) or in the "Old BOM Nominations" folder well down the group page.)

Authors please do not nominate your own books - but readers can definitely nominate a member author's work

I recently finished reading Marcus Herzig’s “Perfect Boy”
This is a new release by Marcus. I really enjoyed it It’s a well crafted story with interesting characters and witty dialog. It’s available on Amazon as a Kindle Unlimited offering.
