“I called him his true name. Léon, the one he‘d chosen himself. None of this was strange to me, a boy deciding his own name. The only strange thing was the fact that he knew mine.” #queerbookclub
“I love him on purpose.”
Took me about half of the book to get into it, but the second half is well worth it, particularly the “PS”-es. #queerbookclub
“Adam is super practical about everything. He‘s the kind of person who always parks his car in the direction of his house, so he doesn‘t waste extra time when leaving for home.” #queerbookclub #audiobooking
“To oppose something is to maintain it.”
I appreciate Le Guin‘s way of spinning out these simple philosophical statements. #bookclub #queerbooks #queerbookclub
“It is not altogether a bad thing to have criminal ancestors. An arsonist grandfather may bequeath one a nose for smelling smoke.” #queerbooks #queerbookclub #bookclub
Feeling very on brand for a certain segment of my identity Venn diagram today. Happy #Pride, Littens! Tagged book is this month‘s #queerbookclub pick; I won‘t be there for the discussion, but I‘m going to still try to read at least a few of the stories during my travel this Saturday.
“Sometimes the gods just want to see what you are going to do.” I‘ve always hated the platitude that god doesn‘t give us more than we can handle, and feel like this is much more in keeping with my idea of what a higher power actually is: curious, not necessarily malevolent, but not seeking to spare me from anything, either. #queerbookclub #queerbooks
Got this one for #queerbookclub today. I didn‘t know before I bought it that it‘s non-fiction. Not looking forward to it as much as I was before this realization. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
