Literally a Reading Rainbow
So the Book Squad may have gotten a bit carried away when we made FOUR printable flyers to spotlight awesome genre fiction featuring gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer protagonists. LibraryAware customers can swap titles to reflect their collections. NoveList users can find more great books with the search strategies outlined below.

RA Tips subscribers know all about NoveList's GLBTQ fiction "genre" heading, which is a really useful way to filter out all the straight stuff. It can also be combined with our "non-genre genres," such as GN Coming-of-age stories or GN Multiple Perspectives.

GLBTQ Romance is its own genre heading: these stories focus primarily on love, sex, and relationships. Find your perfect match by searching: GN GLBTQ Romances P.S. While most of the books under this heading have an HEA -- "happily-ever-after" -- not all of them do. (Sometimes it's better to have loved and lost.)

It's been a rough month. In times of trouble, I've always turned to books. They provide comfort, offer inspiration, and, above all, challenge us to do better, be better. Is there a book that's seen you through the bad days? That gives you hope for better days to come? Talk to me.
