May Reading Recap

Thirteen books in total! Here are some of my favorites.

Annie on My Mind by Nancy Garden – Book Review

This is part two of four of the books I read during Pride month (or rather, for Pride—I am a rather slow reader, or even a mood reader sometimes). On my quest to find more queer literature to read, especially ones with happy endings, I came upon the lesbian classic Annie on My Mind by Nancy Garden. Published in 1982, the novel follows Liza Winthrop and Annie Kenyon meeting, becoming close friends, and soon developing a romance.

Life is Strange: Steph’s Story by Rosiee Thor – Book Review

Over the summer, I came upon a new obsession—the Life is Strange Series. I had always been interested in playing it; the game mechanics, the choices you make throughout the game will impact the ending, were what really drew me in. I have plans to write a full review of the games themselves, so expect that soon!

Right now, we’re going to be reviewing one of the tie-in books for the Life is Strange universe—Life is Strange: Steph’s Story, by Rosiee Thor. As always, this review will contain spoilers, so proceed with caution!

The Falling in Love Montage by Ciara Smyth – Book Review

I had been looking for a copy of The Falling in Love Montage by Ciara Smyth for quite a while, and when I finally saw a copy at my local bookstore, I was so excited! I had been on the market for more positive LGBTQ+ stories with happy endings, and this one seemed to check all those boxes. However, when I started to read it, I realized I raised my expectations a little too high. As usual for my reviews, there will be spoilers, so if you want to read this book, tread carefully, for spoilers ahead!

Project Nought Review: A love story, a mystery, and a sci-fi adventure all wrapped in one!

In high school, I was one of the officers of a club, and one of my jobs was finding inclusive media to share with our members. One of those pieces was Chelsey Furedi’s webcomic “Rock and Riot,” a queer love story set in the 50’s.
