🌈 🏳️‍🌈 Happy Pride month! 🌈 🏳️‍🌈 What's on your Pride reading list? I've just started reading 'In Case You Read This' by Edward Underhill. What else should I be reading? I'd love to find more positive young trans characters. @edwardunderhill.bsky.social #LGBT+ #LGBTQIA+ #BookSky 🏳️‍🌈💙 📚💙

'Follow Me' by Elizabeth Rose Quinn. More tongue-in-cheek than your average mystery novel. Unlikeable characters, massively flawed protagonists, lots of hashtags. Quite a fun read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #BookSky 📚💙 #FollowMe #BookReview #AmazonFirstReads
