Ned: Your mom likes your dad?

[Was he your best friend?] Yeah… he was. He was more than that. Once, he saved my life. We were way off up in the hills shooting elk, and the weather turned mean.

I don't know if you know them, but i recently read the "the you know who girls" series and really enjoyed it.It's a high school/basketball story with various wlw realationships:)Do you know any other books like that? (Your blog is absolutely great)

I do know them! I’ve read the first one and then promptly bought the second one from her website. (For those who aren’t familiar, they’re by Annameekee Hesik and they’re great for younger queer readers especially.) If you like those, my highest rec is Tell Me Again How a Crush Should Feel by Sara Farizan for sure, and I suspect you’ll also like Queens of Geek by Jen Wilde, which comes out on Tuesday, and Dating Sarah Cooper by Siera Maley, even though on the surface they don’t have much in common. Oh, and Style by Chelsea Cameron, definitely!

Happy YAs with actual queer casts (as opposed to ones that have them because, say, they’re set at conversion camp, or Rachel Gold’s, which I love for having very queer casts but also always feature some abuse - something I appreciate but obviously can’t recommend to everyone)instead of just a character or two are kind of just super recently budding, which is one of those great changes happening to LGBTQIAP YA right now. You Know Me Well by David Levithan and Nina LaCour was a really great example, and Meg & Linus by Hanna Nowinski is an upcoming one I’d definitely put on your to-read list.
