Let me know in the comments what id you favorite Queer Book? Or what Queer books are on your TBR for June?
Ooooh, didn’t know Evelyn Hugo was an LGBT+ book, that’s on my TBR! Despite being LGBT+ I haven’t read many books in that category – the last one I read was The Swimming Pool library which was way different from anything I’ve ever read but actually quite interesting.
