A list of books I’ve loved recently as a gay man approaching his 30s.
Loved and hated the main character at the same time, throughout the complex and fascinating storyline. Couldn’t put it down!
My Year of Rest and Relaxation by Ottessa Moshfegh, Paperback
A dark, naughty gay thriller with a twist at the end that I definitely didn’t see coming. So, so well-written!
Bath Haus by P.J. Vernon
I truly adored this book. It encapsulates queerness, disability, yearning for change and bravery to actually do it, all with humor and tender moments.
Just by Looking at Him by Ryan O'Connell
A life-affirming read on rediscovering the enchantment we had as kids through a memoir, storytelling lens rather than self-help. Seriously didn’t want it to end.
Enchantment: Awakening Wonder in an Anxious Age
If you watched iCarly and/or were a kid in the Nickelodeon era, this is a MUST READ.
