Trans Chaos
It’s still Trans Rights Readathon time! Hitting you with books I haven’t recommended before, or not nearly enough. A hearty mix of trans characters and/or authors, with a wide range of genres. Hence, the chaos.
New Year, Same Chaos
They are chaos incarnate, or chaos just happens to spring up whenever they are around. Because let’s face it, a new year is just a new opportunity to cause havoc.
Indigenous People’s day
Yesterday was Indigenous People’s Day, but Indigiqueer reads can be enjoyed all year long.
I have recommended quite a few queer books by Indigenous authors in the past, but this week’s recs are fresh and full of good stories.
First, Dragons
I am in my Temeraire era and *loving* it, but I can’t help but internally scream ‘make it queer!’
Although the platonic bond between the seasoned captain and his dragon with delicate sensibilities hits me right in the gut, so there’s that.
Suicide Awareness Month
“I just didn’t know how to live. I still don’t, but I’m getting better. I’ve asked for help and everything. Where I was going with this, is that I know when it feels like the end. But I can promise you, there’s always another road. Don’t give up yet.”

September is Suicide Awareness Month. This is an issue that is dear to me, in case that wasn’t evident by the struggles I put my characters through, Arlo Rook especially.
Some of my favorite books that deal with this are A Strange and Stubborn Endurance, Lore and Lust, Summer Sons, An Unnatural Vice, and Jack of Thorns.
In some of these stories there are on page attempts, while others have active or passive ideation, or there was an attempt in the past. Please check TW as a good few of these are dark and full of angst.
Sapphic September
It’s Sapphic September, and I’ve rejuvenated the book rec stash with fresh titles! I have to say, I think my favorite types of sapphic stories are the ‘she’s a little bit fucked up and a lot bit haunted’ and the good ol’ ‘I shall protect you with my life, my lady.’
What about you?
Disabled and Badass
It’s Disability Pride Month! So behold the most epic of queer disabled book recommendations.
WIP Book Recs
What happens when you finish a project ? Three more pop up in its place… actually there’s a lot more than three, but these are the unofficial titles for the projects I’m currently working on. Also, recs with corresponding vibes that match!
Any guesses what projects these could be?
Pride Stacks
I forgot to post last week’s colorful stacks here, so I’m combining them with the moodier ones as well.
