It may be half way through the year, but better late than never, right?! In this episode of WhatchYA Readin? I'm sharing my 22 most anticipated queer reads for 2021. Of course I recorded them KIND of out of order and also forgot SO many books in the process, ah well. :) I hope you enjoy and please comment below what queer reads YOU are most looking forward to this year. Bonus points if they're #OwnVoices! ♡

![The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black [Spoiler Free] Review | malarayofsunshine](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/lIUx-To_neM/mqdefault.jpg "The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black [Spoiler Free] Review | malarayofsunshine
This book was super captivating. Holly Black took us on such an incredible journey with twists and turns. I appreciated her sometimes shockingly graphic detail of the ugly and beautiful things, the fact that she captured real life so realistically, and that she was able to do so in a single book. I recommend you pick it up if youre looking for a book that involves Faeries! ♡

Last June Emily and I had the opportunity to go down to San Francisco to walk in Pride with the Apple contingent. It was SO MUCH fun and getting to see the city (and that Union Square Apple Store, tho!) together was incredible. ♡
