Title Game
Rick wrote: "Maybe, it does have some potentially distressing moments dealing with family interactions and domestic troubles. But yeah. ..."The short article he wrote in Out was titled "A Family Outing". I loved the writing and wanted to know more, as I was born in NYC to Puerto Rican parents.

Hiding from Myself: My journey through a UCLA Frat House, the Playboy Mansion and zealous immersion in Ex-Gay Conversion Therapy

Have you read that one, Rick? I read one of his earlier books and found it nasty and badly written. Maybe his writing has improved since then? This actually sounds pretty good.

(yeah, yeah, yeah, I already used hiding and I got nothing else for myself - this was easier)

Have you read this one Nancy? It looks like something I might like, but I've never heard of it before.
I haven't, Greg. When I can't find titles on my own shelf, I'll do random searches. We're finding some good stuff here. :)
Do any of the folks playing this game have limited data problems? I'm thinking that this game would be more fun with cover art. /toys/

The Motion Of Light In Water: Sex And Science Fiction Writing In The East Village
There's another game here that involves book covers:https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Let's keep this one simple.

/Wild/The Wild Man
Patricia Nell Warren wrote this other great gay man's novel (before writing The Front Runner). It's a shame more people haven't heard of it. It's actually a fictionalized account inspired by the life story of a couple people she knew. Can't believe more people haven't heard of this story featuring a gay matador! I read it years ago and have been meaning to re-read it so I can write a review that does it justice.

BTW... Wanted to invite players of this game to a game thread that I started some time ago. It's a bit more complicated. And its not limited to queer lit, but those of us who play enjoy it. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Hey Rick, you might consider nominating it this time too - or something else with your Rickommendation! :)
