MoonyReadsByStarlight | Pride Month TBR 🌈 || June 2020 [CC] @moonyreadsbystarlight | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
I am Bek (they/them) and this in my pride TBR. I will be following the prompts of several different reathons happening in the month of June. Basically I needed an excuse to hyperfocus on planning my books and this happened. Every book that I start this month will be written by a trans or nonbinary author.

![January Wrap Up || Read Your Shelves [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AwzVBkL1xB0/hqdefault.jpg "January Wrap Up || Read Your Shelves [CC]
I am Bek (they/them). Here is what I read in January! I read lots of manga, graphic novels, and poetry as well as one nonfiction and one fantasy book. I also read a kids book Not Quite A Narwhal by Jessie Sima, which I forgot to mention. It talks about being different in a really sweet way that normalizes it.

![The Mountain Goats Albums as LGBTQ+ Books | Oops, everythings sapphic [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Az0TOIoNUuw/hqdefault.jpg "The Mountain Goats Albums as LGBTQ+ Books | Oops, everythings sapphic [CC]
I am Bek (they/them) and in for this video, I have chosen a couple of albums and songs by The Mountain Goats to analyze and find a gay book that fits its vibe. The criterion going in was LGBTQ+ books and somehow they all ended up being sapphic.
