The end of the year is approaching, and what a better way to celebrate than have a list of who I've simped for the most this year, from most to least recent

I do not know what these say about me except for that I'm really gay

☽☆LGBT+ BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS, Part 3☆☾

The books here will have queer themes (duh) and I will be showing off the front cover and the back cover with the summary, if the book provides one, and a few picked pages for preview

☆Here's the list of books, in no particular order☆

6. The Princess and the Grilled Cheese Sandwich by Deya Muniz

Sumary: Lady Camembert wants to live life on her own terms, without marriage. Well, without marrying a man, that is. But the law of the land is that family fortunes cannot be passed down to women. So when her father passes away, she does the only thing she can: She disguises herself as a man and moves to the capital city in the kingdom of Fromage to start over as Count Camembert.

But it's hard to keep a low profile when the beautiful Princess Brie, with her fierce activism and great sense of fashion, catches Cam's attention. Cam can't resist getting to know the princess, but as the two grow closer, will she able to keep her secret?

Readers will devour this romantic comedy about mistaken identity, true love, and lots of grilled cheese.

7. NIMONA by ND Stevenson

Summary: NIMONA is an impulsive young shapeshifter with a knack for villainy.

LORD BALLISTER BLACKHEART is a villain with a vendetta.

As sidekick and supervillain, Nimona and Lord Blackheart are about to wreak some serious havoc. Their mission: prove to the kingdom that Sir Ambrosius Goldenloin and his buddies at the Institution of Law Enforcement and Heroics aren't the heroes everyone thinks they are.

NEMESES!

DRAGONS!

SCIENCE!

SYMBOLISM!

All these and more await in this brilliantly subversive, sharply irreverent epic from ND STEVENSON.

☽☆LGBT+ BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS, Part 1☆☾

I was looking at my bookcase and saw my gay little books and I was like "Someone might appreciate getting recommended these" so here we all.

The books here will have queer themes (duh) and I will be showing off the front cover and the back cover with the summary, if the book provides one, and a few picked pages for preview

☆Here's the list of books, in no particular order☆

1. BLACKWATER, by Jeanette Arroyo and Ren Graham

Summary:

Welcome to the haunted town of Blackwater . . .

Tony Price is a popular high school track star and occasional delinquent aching for his dad's attention and approval.

Eli Hirsch is a quiet boy with a chronic autoimmune disorder that has ravaged his health and social life. What happens when these two become unlikely friends- and a whole lot more- in the spooky town of Blackwater, Maine? Werewolf curses, unsavory interactions with the quarterback of the football team, a ghostly fisherman haunting the harbor, and tons of high school drama.

2. WELCOME TO SAINT HELL by Lewis Hancox

Summary: Lewis has a few things to say to his younger self.

He knows she hates her body. He knows she's confused about who to snoh. He knows she's really a He and will ultimately realize this. But she's going through a whole lot of mess (some of it funny. some of it not funny at all) to get that point. Lewis is trying to tell her this. . . but she can't quite hear him yet.

In WELCOME TO ST. HELL, Lewis Hancox takes readers on the hilarious, heartbreaking, and healing path he took to make it past trauma, confusion, hurt, and dubious fashion choices in order to become the man he was meant to be.

3. ESCAPE FROM ST. HELL by Lewis Hancox

Summary:

Man Mode: Activated

Confusion, triumph, and cringe-worthy mistakes ahead!

For Lewis Hancox, figuring out he was a guy want the end of his journey- it was the start.

Growing up trans in the small town of Saint Helens seemed nearly impossible, but leaving home and going out into the wider world brings a new set of hellish challenges. With anxiety as his constant companion and male role models in short supply, Lewis sets on unlocking the meaning of life 2.0. And romance? Say hello to a spiraling series of tumblings, fumblings, and humblings. At least until the right person comes along (or doesn't)

As in his best selling graphic memoir WELCOME TO ST. HELL, Lewis charts his transition story with plenty of laughs and openess that shows how even when life seems like and endless game, building your own character is always a winning strategy.

For decades, Devoid and his minions have been sealed away, with each generation's Magical Girl protecting the seal and our world. But as the millenia have passed, more and more cracks have appeared in the weakening seal. Now, the seal is open, evil is pouring into our world, and only Max can defeat it.

A hilarious and heartfelt riff on the Magical Girl trope made popular by countless teen manga series, Magical Boy is a one-of-a-kind fantasy series that comic readers of all ages will love.
