Of Love and Libraries is a sweet second chance romcom which smells like books, cinnamon and apple cider. It is the story of two women who reconnect after decades.

I've got a small number of paperback copies of FOURTH WORLD that I'm giving away in advance of the last book in the series coming out this fall. Billed as Atlantis on Mars with time travel (and chock-full of #asexual and otherwise #queer characters)! This would also be a great gift for a teen in your life or a donation to an LGBT teen center. I'm giving these away for free but I can only ship to US addresses. Let me know if you're interested! @lgbtqbookstodon #bookstodon #YAbooks

Queer thriller with several surprising twists, The Guilty Twin is a fun and fast paced read following Evan and Fiona, teenagers who grew up into adults with a dark secret. A disappearing twin is at the heart of this murder mystery, and the murderer may not be the person you think.

Btw, this is me testing the limits of kbin's microblog feature, so the following post will be long. I will post a TLDR at the end.

It has been nearly a month since I've first joined . Even before the exodus, I was already growing tired of the site for the fact that despite how large the communities were, they were very cold and impersonal. There was also the fact that for the community at least, we had been siloed off from the rest of reddit, because nearly every topic involving issues were very often met with hostility by a good amount of users, often followed by a locked topic. It was even getting to the point where I didn't even feel safe in the some of the more socially liberal spaces.

The fact that mods were being stripped of some of the few tools they had to keep their communities hospitable, I knew the writing was on the wall. I tried many reddit alternatives during the blackout, including and . But once I figured out how , , and worked, I found myself feeling right at home on the fediverse.

I think the main reason why is because many of the people here are misfits from other platforms. Many of the users on mastodon are former twitter users who were driven off by the corporate culture of twitter, and later by Elon Musk and the poisoning of the platform. Others are former redditors like me who found platforms like lemmy, and are in the midst of trying to rebuild the community they once had on thier former platform.

Fediverse definitely doesn't feel "mainstream" like the sites that many of us come from , but perhaps that is part of the appeal, and why I have taken to it far quicker than any other social platform I have tried in the past. I'm just hoping as the fediverse continues to grow and attract new users, that it doesn't lose it's quirky and experimental spirit.

TLDR: I like fediverse. It's weird, quirky, and I feel more open here than I was ever able to be on reddit. Don't ever change.

This middle grade novel is a great scary read ! Under the cover of a supernatural story, K.R. Alexander explores the themes of difference and being accepted. It is a perfect book for Goosebumps fans !

and lesbians have this kind of parasitic relationship. See, every garden variety shounen or isekai is brim to bursting with women that practically trip into each other's tits and make out because it's hot. Yet, a show is never allowed to have two girls do that same stuff but consensually, in a relationship, while being explicitly .

The situation is totally mind numbing. They got married in the show. Uh..?

Today I'm writing about the first descriptions of toad sex.

Chinese herpetologist Ch’eng-chao Liu, writing in the Peking Natural History Bulletin in 1932, was certainly thorough . . .

I absolutely loved the winner we chose, Keeping It Unreal: Black Queer Fantasy and Superhero Comics by Darieck Scott.
