This month, I decided to read a handful of books that evolve around LGBTQ+ themes. Whether the characters or authors are members of the LGBTQ+ community, I picked up a few that I would love to recommend.
From Bad to Cursed by Lana Harper, Miss Memory Lane by Colton Haynes, and Delilah Green Doesn't Care by Ashley Herring Green, are all targeted towards Adult audiences in our adult fiction and non fiction sections. They are about LGBTQ+ characters, take place in a world with prominent LGBTQ+ characters, and/or are written by LGBTQ+ authors.
Heartstopper by Alice Oseman is a young adult graphic novel series telling the tail of two high-school students, Nick and Charlie, who start off as good friends, but as time goes on, find that the feelings they have for each other are more than just friendly. It's a relatable coming of age about two students who face day to day challenges of high-school life while being LGBTQ+. This has also inspired a Netflix adaptation that did come out earlier this year.
A Quick and Easy Guide to Asexuality, A Quick and Easy Guide to Queer and Trans Identity, and A Quick and Easy Guide to They/Them Pronouns are all apart of the same Quick and Easy Guide to series and can be found in our graphic novel and teen graphic novel section and can be enjoyed by both teen and adult age groups.
The Rise of Kyoshi and The Shadow of Kyoshi by F.C. Yee are books that I have previously read and recommended. They can be found in our teen area. It can also be enjoyed by an adult audience that either like fantasy and/or are familiar with the Avatar the Last Airbender series.
