Greetings

Hiya!

My (online) name is QueenNerd, I'm a teen biromantic demisexual cis girl(pronouns She/Her) who is a major literature nerds and am on my way to being a writer! In the meantime, I've decided to make this blog and share my love for books with all of you!

Okay, so this blog is all about gay books and why you should read them! I'll be making lots of posts about lots of different books, but I'd also love it if some of you would like to submit LGBTQ books that you love!

Here's how:

If you want to submit a post, make it all your own! Give what you want, how you want, and I'll just pass it on!

If you want to send an ask and have me make a post, here's what I need:

A) A Gayness scale (Does it have an LGBTQ main character? LGBTQ love interest? LGBTQ supporting character? LGBTQ Themes? LGBTQ author? LGBTQ issues based storyline?)

B) On a scale of one to ten, how gay was it?

C) How many stars do you give it?

D) What was your favorite part(no spoilers!)?

Alright! Thanks for listening, that's all!

QueenNerd is out!

Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda

Author: Becky Albertalli

Sixteen-year-old and not-so-openly gay Simon Spier prefers to save his drama for the school musical. But when an email falls into the wrong hands, his secret is at risk of being thrust into the spotlight. Now Simon is actually being blackmailed: if he doesn’t play wingman for class clown Martin, his sexual identity will become everyone’s business. Worse, the privacy of Blue, the pen name of the boy he’s been emailing, will be compromised. With some messy dynamics emerging in his once tight-knit group of friends, and his email correspondence with Blue growing more flirtatious every day, Simon’s junior year has suddenly gotten all kinds of complicated. Now, change-averse Simon has to find a way to step out of his comfort zone before he’s pushed out—without alienating his friends, compromising himself, or fumbling a shot at happiness with the most confusing, adorable guy he’s never met.(x)
