Thanks for this lovely recommendation! I'm currently putting together the proposal for my forthcoming memoir, Hurricane Lessons, so I'm eager to read as many LGBTQ+ memoirs as possible!

Good luck! I have read so many and have so many more waiting in my TBR stack. Feel free to message me if you want to brainstorm comps. I'm currently in the query trenches.

Sounds great! I finally finished The Family Outing a few weeks ago, based on your recommendation and I absolutely loved it.

Some more recs for you: High Risk Homosexual by Edgar Gomez, Holà Papi by John Paul Brammer, Unfollow Me by Jill Louise Busby.

I just started listening to the audiobook of A Year Without a Name by Cyrus Grace Dunham. Their prose is so gorgeous and I feel so seen. I know I’ll have to get the hard copy.
