A not-so-mini episode with descriptions of upcoming new releases of LGBTQ+ books we are excited about. Early October has LGBTQIA+ romance, historical fiction, and plenty of holiday romance and spice. Listen to hear about a variety of new queer books scheduled to release in early October.
Also in this episode, we discuss Banned Books Week, list the ten most challenged books of the year, and express our opinion on book banning due to LGBTQ+ content or other content.
