The Birthday Book Tag! Because today is my birthday I thought it would be fun to do this tag!! Any birthday is a great one if I can talk all about books on my day! I‘d love to know your answers to any of these questions. 📚🎂🎉

Holy cow @Kaye thanks for all the loot! Especially all the new books! I have Educated on hold at the library but I think I‘m #55 on the list. And I‘ve never heard of the Bugliosi book you sent. Good thing we don‘t have anywhere to go this long weekend and the weather is supposed to be great so I can spend lots of hours in my hammock with all these books. ❤️

Kaye You‘re welcome. Hope you have a great birthday 🎂 6y

Birthday presents from my bestie. The one on the right is a drawing of Hermione Granger, and the one on the left says, “We read so we know we‘re not alone.” The girl in the pic is reading a copy of Anne of Green Gables. ❤️❤️❤️

BookishMe What fantastic choice! 😍💕😍 6y
Kmmsellers I‘m so glad you like them! 6y
LikelyLibrarian @BookishMe @Kmmsellers They‘re perfect. Two of my all-time favorite female characters 😊 6y

My birthday is in a few weeks. There are a lot of queer books on my TBR that I'd like to get because of them not being at the library, but I can't ask my parents to buy me queer books. They'd never go for it 😞 So pls ask your local library to consider buying a queer book you notice is missing so that queer folks can have access to queer content. For some of us the library is our only resource. Thank u

jpmcwisemorgan Will they get mad if you receive queer books? Is it better for them to be digital? 7y
GypsyKat Can‘t you request them from your library? Like, my local library is very small so it doesn‘t have a lot, but it‘s part of the county system so I could request just about anything. Have you tried that at all? 7y
queerbookreader @GypsyKat I mean the county system, all the libraries combined. None of them are great with getting queer books. My library is probably the worst 🙄 but when there is a queer book available somewhere else I usually just go to that branch and get it 7y

queerbookreader @jpmcwisemorgan they don't know I have queer books cos I hide the spines so they can't see them on my shelf. Digital books would definitely be more discreet!! But I've been unemployed for a while so I can't afford to buy books which is why I use the library so much and have to rely on getting books as gifts for my birthday and Xmas and stuff 7y
jpmcwisemorgan Ok if you‘re willing to send me an email at mcwisemorgan@gmail.com with your preferred digital format (Kindle, Nook, etc.) and your top choices that you‘re dying to have I want to send you a book or two for your birthday. 7y
queerbookreader @jpmcwisemorgan Jesus really thank you omg 7y
GypsyKat @queerbookreader I‘m sorry, that really sucks. 🙁 7y
Mindelan I know this isn‘t a book, but Cameron Esposito (a queer comedian) does a weekly podcast called Queery where she interviews other GLBTQ+ folks. It‘s not fiction, but the conversations are amazing and mind blowing and give a sense of community, and it‘s free.(Forgive me if you know it already, I just love it) I‘m sorry it‘s hard to get access to queer media :( 7y
Weaponxgirl Have you looked at scribd? Whilst the catalogues are different in different countries I read Janet mock on there and there is usually a good selection of queer books. Since u can read on phone or tablet it should be easier to hide. 7y
xicanti I also recommend Scribd. There's a monthly or yearly fee after your trial period, but maybe you could ask for a year's subscription as a birthday gift if you don't mention that it's chock full of queer books. Lots of queer indie authors put their stuff on there, and many traditional queer publishers also participate. 7y
queerbookreader @Weaponxgirl @xicanti I've never heard of scribd!! I'll go check it out thank you guys so much 7y
Weaponxgirl Yes, it's a huge variety and good value. Audiobooks as well as ebooks. Books on feminism, race aswel as lots of fiction. Only thing against I find is it can be hard to navigate 7y
TheKidUpstairs Does your library give you access to Overdrive (basically a library for digital books)? Might be something good to check out! What type of e-reader/ electronic reading platform do you use? 7y
TheKidUpstairs Also, I'm sorry that your parents won't help you access queer books. But I hope you know that you've got a community here that has your back! 7y
jpmcwisemorgan Hehehe!!! Well, that was fun. Happy birthday! 🎈🎁🎉 7y
queerbookreader @TheKidUpstairs my library system does use overdrive, but they only get digital copies of books they also have in print! Never just digital copies. I also have access to NYPL's overdrive which has been a lifesaver 😭 I use my iPad so I use kindle, iBooks, comixology, and Adobe digital reader for my arcs. Do you use hoopla? I use a friend's account but the queer content hasn't been overwhelming or anything 7y
TheKidUpstairs @queerbookreader what's your email address? 7y
TheKidUpstairs @queerbookreader and what's on the top of your birthday list? 7y
queerbookreader @TheKidUpstairs my email is claire.ladelia@gmail.com 7y
TheKidUpstairs @queerbookreader I tried to gift you a Kindle copy of a Canadian queer book that's supposed to be great, but because I'm in Canada I couldn't get it to you. So I've sent you an Amazon e- gift certificate so you can buy one for yourself. Feel free to get whatever you want with it, but if you're interested the one I was going to send you was 7y
queerbookreader @TheKidUpstairs IVE HEARD OF THAT BOOK like once a while ago 7y
queerbookreader @TheKidUpstairs thank you so much. So so so much. I'm gonna cry 7y
TheKidUpstairs @queerbookreader you're very welcome. Happy Birthday! 🎉🎉🎉 7y
