The Great Library of Autostraddle 12 years, 3 months agoI’m about to finish “Among Other Things I’ve Taken Up Smoking” by Aiobheann Sweeney, and am juggling “The Age of American Unreason” by Susan Jacoby and “Red Emma Speaks,” a collection of Emma Goldman’s essays and speeches, on the side. But I’ve also realized that my local library suuuuuucks. What are some super popular queer (or even queerish)…[Read more]

Seattlestraddle 12 years, 3 months agohey seattlestraddlers! any group-y things going on soon? i moved up here from phoenix just over a week ago and would like to meet some folks in the area!
also, is this really summer?? my little desert heart is bursting with love for the cool and the clouds, since when i left the temp in phx was twice what it is here. !!

I’m calling Julember. Summer is usually not quite this bad, but we never approach a summer in Arizona.
-
Ha! Julember sounds right. My housemate is really sad about the weather but this is like a phx winter.
How often do you all get together?
-
I’ve never been to a thing, b/c it’s just been 21+ so idk.
I think trivia nights have a happened twice?

The Great Library of Autostraddle 12 years, 3 months agoGuys, I just started reading Annie On My Mind. I am so excited, but the first few pages were sad already. I am anticipating identifying too closely with the main character.
Any other good queer fiction to recommend? I’ve got the nonfiction more or less covered.

I love tipping the velvet by Sarah Waters. I’ve also read oranges aren’t the only fruit, which to me was quite strange but I guess if it’s in your library, give it a go.
-
Oranges Aren’t the Only Fruit is an interesting read – Winterson has a different way of writing but it’s powerful nonetheless. Give it a try.
-
Another great YA lesbian novel is Keeping You a Secret. Also a bit sad, but it’s pretty good. Not as well written as Annie on My Mind, though.
-
Oh, and ASH by Malinda Lo. It’s a lesbian retelling of Cinderella!

i second this, and add “huntress” #omg #sogood
