High risk homosexual book5/29/2023 A debut memoir about coming of age as a gay, Latinx man, High-Risk Homosexual opens in the ultimate anti-gay space: Edgar Gomez’s uncle’s cockfighting ring in Nicaragua, where he was sent at thirteen years old to become a man. In a world desperate to erase us, queer Latinx men must find ways to hold on to pride for survival, but excessive male pride is often what we are battling, both in ourselves and in others. This witty memoir traces a touching and often hilarious spiralic path to embracing a gay, Latinx identity against a culture of machismo-from a cockfighting ring in Nicaragua to cities across the U.S.-and the bath houses, night clubs, and drag queens who help redefine pride I’ve always found the definition of machismo to be ironic, considering that pride is a word almost unanimously associated with queer people, the enemy of machistas.

Earth & Sky by Megan Crewe5/28/2023 I enjoyed this book very much and it matched up to what I was expecting quite well. MY REVIEW Hello bookworms and welcome to another book chat! Today, I will sharing with you, my thoughts on the second book in the Earth & Sky trilogy/series: The Clouded Sky. In the latest in Megan Crewe’s Earth & Sky series, can Skylar expose the traitor before time runs out and Earth is destroyed? Not only must Sky navigate the muddy waters of romance, but suspicions of betrayal grow among the rebels as their work narrowly misses sabotage. Gradually, Skylar’s skill for detail gains respect-even from Jule, who is more vulnerable than he lets on. Homesick and faced with a cool reception from the other rebels, she throws herself into the group’s mission: assembling a weapon to disable Earth’s restrictive time field. To avoid detection, Skylar poses as the Earthling “pet” of Win’s rival, an arrogant boy named Jule. She and her friend Win take refuge on Win’s home space station with his fellow rebels, but the fate of Skylar’s planet still spins out of her control. GENRE: YOUNG ADULT, SCIENCE FICTION, DYSTOPIAīLURB: When seventeen-year-old Skylar escapes the time-bending Enforcers who secretly control Earth, her troubles have just begun.
