RandalM's comments from the Gay fiction/non-fiction group.

Has everyone seen Queerty's "Top 10 Books of '08 That Belong on A Gay's Bookshelf"? They are:

1. The Alcoholic by Jonathan Ames, illustrated by Dean Haspiel
2. The Sixth Form by Tom Dolby
3. Erotomania by Francis Levy
4. Hiding in Hip Hop: On the Down Low in the Entertainment Industry–from Music to Hollywood by Terrance Dean
5. American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld
6. Anything Goes by John Barrowman
7. Crisis: 40 Stories Revealing the Personal Social and Religious Pain and Trauma of Growing Up Gay in America by Mitchell Gold and Mindy Drucker
8. Swish: My Quest to Become the Gayest Person Ever by Joel Derfner
9. When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
10. The Memoirs of a Beautiful Boy by Robert Leleux

Thoughts? This is obviously a very gay male list. Know of any other LGBT best-book lists for 2008?

Hello, everyone. My name’s Randal. I’m a 39 year old single GWM living in the DC area.

I enjoy both LGBT and mainstream contemporary fiction, magical realism, sci fi/fantasy (especially gay-themed, feminist, and utopian/dystopian works), and poetry.
