I am joining the GLBT Challenge 2009 hosted by Amanda at The Zen Leaf. The challenge is to read 6 GLBT books from July 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009. This will be a real challenge since I don't read a lot of GLBT books in general. Here is my list.
1. √ Kissing Kate - Lauren Myracle
2. √ Boy Meets Boy - David Leviathan
3. √ Another Kind of Cowboy - Susan Juby
4. √ Between Mom and Jo - Julie Anne Peters
5.√ The Straight Road to Kylie - Nico Medina
6. √ Ash - Malinda Lo
********
Some alternates (Mostly YA) are:
The Bermudez Triangle - Maureen Johnson
Belmondo Style - Adam Berlin
Rainbow Boys - Alex Sanchez
Naomi & Ely's No Kiss List - Rachel Cohen & David Leviathan
Even Cowgirls Get the Blues - Tom Robbins
Down to the Bone - Mayra Lazara Dole
The Straight Road to Kylie - Nico Medina
Hero - Perry Moore (I've read this before and it was very good. It's about a gay superhero.)
Yay! I'm so glad you're joining. :D
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of half of these. Wonderful suggestions. I'm going to have to add some to my tbr list!
ReplyDeleteYou may like "Hero" by Perry Moore.
ReplyDeleteIt's YA, its GLBT and its about superheroes.
Erica, I've read it but I should add it to the list.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
I read Between Mom & Jo last year (I think?) and really enjoyed it. Julie Anne Peters is such a great author. The characters are three-dimensional and the conflict is genuine.
