Recently, I got back into Reading, and would love to get some queer book recommendations.

Especially aiming into stuff about queer history, identities, fiction, etc.

    I read Suicide Notes. It’s an extremely heavy book with about every trigger possible buried in it, just as a warning. I’m not going to say what exactly it covers from the LGBTQ+ spectrum, but it really let me see into a different world. Someone else’s world. It’s a fiction, but it’s not a fantasy; it feels like living someone’s real life. It’s incredibly moving, but it is very depressing (the name is a good indicator), so keep that in mind before deciding to read it. I learned a lot from it, including things about myself. I’d highly recommend it if you’re willing to get really sad about it; I feel it was very cathartic for me, and it’s a great portal into the queer experience.

    Also, there is a sequel called Every Star That Falls. I’ll be reading that at some point, but likely not especially soon.
