Funky Queer Sci-Fi and Fantasy to Read this Pride Month
It goes without saying that one should read queer books all year, but Pride represents a perfect opportunity to wave the flag for fiction with LGBTQIA+ protagonists and themes. So, amidst the flurry of recommendation posts, I present my own pile: specifically of genre fiction!
From urban fantasies about lesbians dealing with vengeful gods to far-future solarpunk road trips starring non-binary monks and everything in between, here are some novels I hold as exemplary examples of imaginative, speculative queer storytelling from the past few years.
Keep reading...

Lakelore || Anna-Marie McLemore || 304 pages
Top 3 Genres: Fantasy / Young Adult / LGBTQIA+
Synopsis: Everyone who lives near the lake knows the stories about the world underneath it, an ethereal landscape rumored to be half-air, half-water. But Bastián Silvano and Lore Garcia are the only ones who’ve been there. Bastián grew up both above the lake and in the otherworldly space beneath it. Lore’s only seen the world under the lake once, but that one encounter changed their life and their fate.
Then the lines between air and water begin to blur. The world under the lake drifts above the surface. If Bastián and Lore don’t want it bringing their secrets to the surface with it, they have to stop it, and to do that, they have to work together. There’s just one problem: Bastián and Lore haven’t spoken in seven years, and working together means trusting each other with the very things they’re trying to hide.
Publication Date: March 2022. / Average Rating: 3.95. / Number of Ratings: ~2510.

Mod opinion: I really, really like this book. Plus, the cover is so pretty <3.

Quick Review: Lakelore by Anna-Marie McLemore
Rating: 5/5
I needed this book today. I needed reminding that no matter how your brain works, you are deserving of love and patience and safety. I loved watching Bastián and Lore become friends and share their struggles with ADHD and dyslexia and transness. I loved the ways McLemore explained these deeply misunderstood conditions and how they explored the complex ways race and gender and disability intersect. I learned so much and I felt so comforted and I can't wait to read more of McLemore's novels.

The Best Books I Read in 2022
It’s been a weird, transitional year filled with an exciting variety of stresses and challenges… but hot damn, did I have some excellent fiction to carry me through it. Below are my favourite books I read in 2022, from funky queer sci-fi to uplifting teen rom-coms.
As of next year, I’ll be moving across to Story Graph for all my book-cataloguing needs! Send me a friend request if you’re on there~
Keep reading...

“There’s a certain way that falling for someone can only ever feel when you’re falling at least a little for yourself first. So maybe it’s that flickering inside me and inside Lore too, how we had to know something for ourselves before knowing it with someone else.”
