I’ve wanted to make this post for a while.

11 books that have made me think about what it means to be a gay man, from the joy of finding love, to the grief of what previous generations went through, to feeling alone and discovering you’re not, to all the messy parts in between.

What would you add to this list?

A little bit of everything from gothic horror and haunted houses to flesh eating monsters and sapphic vampires.

What are your favourite queer spooky reads? I need more recommendations!

september wrap up 📚

another VERY good reading month apparently!!! The Living Realm and Yesteryear were definitely my standouts, but I also need to give Everything Not Saved a little moment because I loved this one so much.

it felt so unique and clever, the nostalgia was NOSTALGIING!!! I absolutely adored Mikey and Kris, and the way the video games were incorporated into the story was such a genius idea. genuinely made my heart feel all warm and fuzzy 🥹

I’m really excited to see what NMJ Coveney does next because this was such a lovely surprise.

what was your favourite read in september??👀

bookish life lately 📚

currently 45% into East of Eden and becoming increasingly concerned about Cathy Ames, still thinking about some recent 5 star reads, went to a lovely queer book event and apparently my book buying ban lasted approximately 4 minutes x

what are you all reading at the minute??

I’m hoping to read more than 10 books before 2026 is over, but these are the TOP priorities!!

Where should I start? 👀
