Kyra Maeve Donovan has spent years trying to straighten out her life.
After surviving five miserable years of Catholic school trapped in a rigid back brace, the seventeen-year-old powerlifting star is finally beginning to feel in control of her future. Her scoliosis is manageable, her athletic career is thriving, and a college scholarship could be her ticket out of a suffocating neighborhood filled with religious judgment, nonstop family drama, and constant comparisons to her seemingly perfect older sister.
Then her back gives out during the state championship.
Suddenly, Kyra’s carefully planned future begins to unravel. Forced into physical therapy for the remainder of her junior year and terrified she may end up back in a brace permanently, Kyra struggles with frustration, fear, and the possibility that her body may not cooperate with the life she envisioned.
What she does not expect is Simone Jackson.
Strong, confident, and impossibly attractive, Simone is a rival powerlifter recovering alongside Kyra in therapy. As the two girls bond over competition, pain, ambition, and vulnerability, Kyra starts questioning more than her athletic future. For the first time, she begins to wonder if her spine is not the only thing about her that is not straight.
Funny, heartfelt, and emotionally honest, Not Straight is an ownvoices LGBTQ+ coming-of-age novel that explores disability, queer identity, first love, body image, family pressure, and the complicated relationship between strength and vulnerability. Savy Leiser delivers a deeply relatable story about learning to embrace the parts of yourself you were taught to “fix.”
Perfect for readers who love queer young adult fiction, sports-centered coming-of-age stories, and authentic disability representation, Not Straight is a powerful reminder that healing is not always about becoming who others expect you to be.
A teenage powerlifting star recovering from scoliosis complications begins questioning both her future and her sexuality after falling for a

An intoxicating blend of queer mythmaking, avant-garde spectacle, and silent-era decadence, Salomé transforms Oscar Wilde’s infamous play into one of the earliest American art films. Directed by Charles Bryant and produced by and starring the legendary Alla Nazimova, the film abandons realism entirely in favor of dreamlike sets, stylized performances, and striking black-and-white imagery inspired by the illustrations of Aubrey Beardsley.
Retelling the biblical story of Salome, Herod, and John the Baptist through Wilde’s lush and theatrical lens, the film became notorious during production due to rumors that much of the cast was gay or bisexual, with several male performers appearing in drag. Whether exaggerated or not, the rumors helped doom the film commercially in an era deeply hostile to queer expression and artistic experimentation.
A commercial failure upon release, Salomé has since been reclaimed as a landmark of queer and experimental cinema. Today, its hypnotic visuals, coded sexuality, and fearless theatricality feel astonishingly modern nearly a century later.
Context Note:
This film is presented in its original historical form and reflects the stylized performance traditions and social attitudes of the 1920s. Queerazon Cinema presents Salomé for its cultural, artistic, and queer historical significance.

Revenge is complicated enough on its own. Add motorcycles, tattoo shops, secret agendas, emotional baggage, and an unexpected polyamorous romance, and suddenly everything catches fire at once.
Ink and Insults, by Ki Brightly and M.D. Gregory, blends queer romance, emotional drama, found family, and simmering tension into a messy, heartfelt story about revenge plans gone spectacularly off-script.
Ren Booth arrives in New Gothenburg with a mission: destroy his older brother Luke’s life piece by piece. Luke’s choices shaped Ren’s future in ways he’s never forgiven, and now Ren is determined to retaliate by targeting everything his brother values most, including his motorcycle club and the chosen family he’s built around himself.
Opening a tattoo parlor next door to Luke’s world is only the beginning.
What Ren doesn’t anticipate are the people who complicate his carefully crafted scheme.
Oli has spent years working in Luke’s barber shop while dreaming of becoming a tattoo artist. Watching Ren move in beside the Ink Well, the very studio Oli longs to join, feels like a personal insult wrapped in expensive ink and aggravating confidence. Matters only worsen when Ren starts dating KC Beaumont, the sweet, overworked college linebacker Oli has quietly been crushing on for far too long.
KC, meanwhile, is exhausted from trying to manage expectations, family dynamics, and feelings he can no longer ignore. Choosing between Ren and Oli feels impossible, especially when the chemistry between all three men becomes undeniable.
As attraction deepens into a genuine relationship, Ren finds himself pulled away from revenge and toward something far more dangerous: emotional vulnerability. But secrets rarely stay buried forever. When Ren’s true motives finally come to light, the fragile trust between the three men threatens to collapse completely.
Packed with emotional tension, queer found-family dynamics, tattoo-shop atmosphere, bisexual and polyamorous romance, and complicated loyalty, Ink and Insults explores how love can emerge from even the messiest beginnings.
Because sometimes the heart ruins perfectly good revenge plans.
A man seeking revenge against his brother finds his plans derailed by an intense polyamorous romance involving a tattoo artist, a college li
What Is Queer Food?: How We Served a Revolution by John Birdsall
Delicious, expansive, and brilliantly original, What Is Queer Food? uncovers the hidden history of how queer people transformed American food culture through resilience, creativity, pleasure, and community.
Award-winning culinary writer John Birdsall serves up far more than food history in this groundbreaking work of cultural criticism and LGBTQ+ history. Through richly detailed storytelling and vivid historical portraits, Birdsall explores how queer cooks, writers, hosts, artists, and outsiders shaped the modern culinary landscape while building spaces of survival and joy in a world that often sought to erase them.
Moving across decades of queer history, the book traces how food became both refuge and rebellion. From elegant brunch culture and glamorous dinner parties to lesbian potlucks, underground gatherings, restaurant kitchens, and immigrant food traditions, Birdsall reveals how meals became acts of identity, resistance, intimacy, and self-expression.
Along the way, readers encounter an extraordinary cast of queer cultural figures, including James Baldwin, Alice B. Toklas, Truman Capote, Esther Eng, and many others whose influence quietly reshaped the ways Americans cook, gather, entertain, and eat. Whether exploring queer domesticity during the Cold War, the devastation of the AIDS epidemic, or the liberatory energy of post-Stonewall communities, Birdsall shows how food became inseparable from queer survival and reinvention.
What emerges is a dazzling mosaic of queer life told through kitchens, recipes, parties, restaurants, and shared tables. Birdsall writes with cinematic energy, intellectual depth, and genuine affection, transforming culinary history into a vibrant story about belonging, creativity, and cultural transformation.
Far more than a book about food, What Is Queer Food? is a bold reframing of LGBTQ+ history itself, revealing how queer communities used hospitality, taste, performance, and gathering to shape modern identity and culture.
Perfect for readers interested in queer history, food writing, cultural criticism, LGBTQ+ studies, and social history, this acclaimed work is both intellectually rich and irresistibly appetizing.

A strange, fascinating, and deeply complicated artifact from the dawn of cinema, A Florida Enchantment is one of the earliest films to explore themes of gender transformation and identity through fantasy comedy. Based on a 19th-century novel and stage play, the film follows Lillian Travers after she discovers magical seeds that trigger dramatic changes in personality, behavior, and gender expression. What unfolds is part silent farce, part social satire, and part accidental queer time capsule.
More than a century later, the film remains startling for its playful treatment of masculinity, femininity, flirtation, and performance. Modern audiences often view it through queer and trans lenses, especially for its depiction of characters experimenting with identity outside rigid social expectations. At moments, the movie feels decades ahead of its time. At others, it is unmistakably trapped within the prejudices of the era that created it.

Figure skating is elegant. Hockey is controlled chaos. Falling in love somewhere between the two? Absolute disaster.
It’s a Love/Skate Relationship by Carli J. Corson is a sparkling sapphic young adult sports romance packed with rivals-to-lovers tension, emotional growth, competitive skating drama, and enough chemistry to melt an entire ice rink.
Charlie Porter lives for hockey. Fierce, impulsive, and permanently fueled by competitive energy, she’s used to fighting hard both on and off the ice. But after a heated post-game brawl gets her suspended from school athletics, Charlie’s future suddenly looks terrifyingly uncertain. No season means no scouts. No scouts means no scholarship opportunities. And without hockey, Charlie barely knows who she is anymore.
Meanwhile, elite figure skater Alexa Goldstein faces a crisis of her own. When her skating partner is injured during the very same fight that derails Charlie’s hockey career, Alexa is left scrambling only months before a critical competition. With no viable replacement in sight, she proposes an outrageous solution:
Charlie becomes her new pairs partner.
The arrangement sounds impossible. Charlie has never figure skated before, and she and Alexa clash immediately. Charlie is loud, emotional, and reckless; Alexa is polished, disciplined, and seemingly carved from ice itself. Every practice session becomes a battlefield of bruised egos, sharp banter, and mutual frustration.
But somewhere between failed lifts, tense rehearsals, and late-night training sessions, the frost between them begins to thaw.
As competition pressure mounts and attraction grows impossible to ignore, Charlie and Alexa discover that partnership requires more than technical skill. It demands trust, vulnerability, and the courage to let someone truly see you beneath the armor.
Funny, heartfelt, and emotionally authentic, It’s a Love/Skate Relationship delivers everything readers love about young adult sapphic romance: slow-burn chemistry, lovable characters, sports rivalry, found confidence, and big feelings unfolding under arena lights.
Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers romance, queer YA fiction, sports stories, and heroines who crash into love at full speed wearing ice skates.
