The book they told James Baldwin to burn turns 70 this year. We wrote about its history and why it still matters.

If you’ve read They Both Die at the End, what were your thoughts on it? #QueerBookClub
In the second section of They Both Die at the End, Rufus and Mateo finally step into their “last day,” but it’s less wild adventure and more about saying goodbye. #QueerBookClub #Booksky
I’ve been dying to read They Both Die at the End, and this February felt right. It’s a romance month with a Friday the 13th which calls for a love story with teeth. #QueerBookClub
I wrapped up reading the second half of All Boys Aren’t Blue, so let’s chat about it. As we continue through the section on family, we get a deeper look at family members that impacted George’s life. #QueerBookClub
Hope to see some of you next Saturday!

Back with more on All Boys Aren’t Blue. This next section continues giving us an in-depth look at Georges life and experiences. #QueerBookClub
I’m kicking off the year with All Boys Aren’t Blue by George M. Johnson, a memoir manifesto about growing up black and queer. It’s been on my reading list for a long while and I’m so glad I’m finally diving in.

What’s on your #TBR this year?
Something New.
Queerly Beloved popped up on my facebook feed over the festive period so commented if anyone was welcome and they said yes! I haven’t read the book in this meeting but going to see if it’s something interesting to be part of in 2026 as I’m an avid reader.
#BookClub #QueerBookClub

Just finished the 2nd section of Recipe for Trouble so let’s get into it! (Some spoilers ahead 👀)
Ben and Pete’s videos are off to a rocky start with Pete’s crippling on-camera anxiety. #BookSky #QueerBookClub
My brain is deep into Heated Rivalry and I was craving more MM romance reading with a holiday twist for the season. This week I started Recipe for Trouble, a grumpy/sunshine MM romance about food media and social video virality. #QueerBookClub #BookSky
The next book I'll be reading is Recipe for Trouble, an MM romance for the holidays 😍

Ellen’s visions become real and violent. She goes from terrified to almost comfortable with them. Even willing to hand over the people she hates to the characters spilling out of The Baroness. #QueerBookClub
A little late for spooky season, but my new #QueerBookClub pick is “Black Flame” by In 1980s New York, we follow Ellen, a film archivist who’s restoring a cursed horror movie called “The Baroness.” I went to film school, so this premise really piqued my interest.
A little behind schedule but we’ve finally reached the end of Giovanni’s Room. #QueerBookClub #BookSky
Hella’s finally back and David’s doing the absolute most to convince himself he’s straight and prove his masculinity. It’s unraveling Giovanni in the process.
A few days late, but I’m back with a check-in on Giovanni’s Room (pages 85–118). The layers of tension and unease are building and I’m struck by how David keeps circling the same fears and desires but never lands anywhere solid. #QueerBookClub #BookSky
Back for more of Giovanni’s Room! I found this next section super interesting as we delve deeper into David and Giovanni’s relationship and get more of a peek at queer life in the era. #QueerBookClub
It’s been a few weeks but just in time for #ReadABookDay I’m finally ready to start getting into Giovanni’s Room by #JamesBaldwin. If you’d like to follow along, my goal is to finish reading this in the next 4 weeks at an easy pace of about 40 pages weekly.
Join me for this #QueerBookClub
Hand holding up a copy of James Baldwin’s novel Giovanni’s Room with a blue sky and trees in the background.
Next up for my #QueerBookClub is Giovanni’s Room by James Baldwin. I’ve been fascinated by Baldwin’s life lately, and this classic has been sitting on my list for way too long.
I’ll be sharing my thoughts as I read. I’d love to gab about it with you!
Finally finished Before Night Falls and my head is spinning. Let’s talk about it.!
This book is brutal, absurd, chaotic, intimate and to be honest kind of perfect for the current moment we’re living in. #QueerBookClub
Okay, confession: I started Before Night Falls by Reinaldo Arenas months ago and told myself I’d post as I went along. That…didn’t happen. But now that I’m almost done, let’s talk about it!
Kicking off this very unofficial #QueerBookClub
