So I really really want to read this book because I am questioning my sexuality, but my parents are very homophobic so I can't buy it. I can't borrow it from the library because of Covid-19, is there a way I can read this online?

Is Jem Could you ask your school's librarian if they get order it in for you? If you have access to Amazon, they tend to have audiobook free trials, so you could choose that as one of your free audiobooks, and if your parents see it you can say that you clicked on it by accident or that it came with that book.

In terms of other LGBT+ books - Tor.com also tends to publish a lot of LGBT+ Fantasy, and they have short stories online and have a monthly e-book club where they give away a free SFF e-book each month.

Also, books that have LGBT themes but it's not stated explicitly on the blurb
-'Summer Bird Blue' by Akemi Dawn Bowman has a protagonist who realises they're asexual
-'The Exact Opposite of Okay' by Laura Steven has a gay best friend character with homophobic parents
-'In Other Lands' by Sarah Rees Brennan has a main character who is bisexual

The podcast 'The Bright Sessions' is free, and is about teenagers/early to mid twenties people with superpowers in therapy. Main characters include: an asexual romantic girl, a bisexual male, a gay teenage boy, and a teenage boy who doesn't really know what his sexuality is but ends up in a relationship with a boy. It also has a YA book that goes along with it 'The Infinite Noise' by Lauren Shippen, and I don't think it explicitly says on the blurb that it involves a gay couple.

I hope this helps! Feel free to message me if you want any other lgbt+ related stuff or books and I will try to help.
