Since it’s Pride Month, I’ve been reading a few books from LGBTQ+ authors and I think I’ve found a favorite: Anna-Marie McLemore. I’ve started reading When the Moon Was Ours and am officially in love!

Do any of you have a favorite LGBTQ+ author? Why is that author your favorite?

I am a fan of Claire Kann because she's one of the few asexual authors I know of and, as an aro-ace person, her depiction of asexuality in Let's Talk About Love was really affirming. I also really love Gabby Rivera, although I've only read Juliet Takes a Breath. It's a great depiction of finding community and learning what it means to be an intersectional feminist. I'll have to check out When the Moon was Ours, though; it sounds really interesting!

Seanan McGuire. Hands down.

She's bi and demi, and neurodivergent.

Writes juvenile fiction, YA fiction, urban fantasy, horror, and sci fi.

(She also writes under a few other names: Mira Grant and A. Deborah Baker.)


I always swore I'd never have an all time favorite author, but then I read her writing. :lol:

You all just made my day today!!! I've been searching awhile now for LGBTQ+ novels and seems to land empty handed every time. Maybe I just do the search wrong, who knows. Thanks to all of you, I now have a list to search 🤗.
