Bloodyjack 794 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Hey guys and gheys, I'm looking to read more books about the community but honestly didn't know where to start. I prefer darker stories about the dangers within our community kinda like the works of dennis Cooper and jt Leroy. Any recommendations lemme know Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Hollywood 37,364 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I recommend Boy Erased! It's a captivating memoir about a boy dealing with the struggles of conversion therapy, general homophobia, and coming to terms with his own beliefs. It definitely demonstrates how risky life can become for simply loving who they love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Call me by Your Name, amazing book, and the movie is almost as good (still amazing) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOVEDRUG 10,720 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I'm reading a book called The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue about a bisexual man in 18th century England. I'd recommend it. Also the Song of Achilles is a good gay love story. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaskar 3,943 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 It does not exactly fulfill your criteria, but "Funny Boy" by Shyam Selvadurai is a book I recently read and enjoyed. It's about a kid who's struggling with his sexuality in a (civil) war-torn Ceylon (Sri Lanka, a south Asian country). It also have a cute gay love story. I have heard a lot about "A Little Life" by Hanya Yanagihara, but have not read it myself. It's pretty dark as far as I know. Oh, and Cursed Child by Rowling is pretty dark as well, since the two gays were not allowed to "be gay" and were "forced" into heterosexual relationships I will never forgive Jo for that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vergil 2,296 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I know Wattpad has a bad reputation and the title won’t help but this book is really good: Call Me Daddy by guzmasboi. Give it a try, it’s surprisingly well written for being a Wattpad book. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

migamiga 12,102 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 I heard Giovanni’s Room by James Baldwin is really good. I’m only a couple pages in and the writing is amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
