All of the EIGHT books I read in September! #booktube #lgbtqia

September was the month I read eight books while wrapping up my big reading vlog project, reading books based on my favorite TV shows. I read a variety of things including a speculative fiction, a children's picture book, a YA contemporary with a fake rivalry, celebrity memoirs, and more.

Join me this weekend in my private Discord from Friday, October 17th to Monday, October 20th to catch up on our Fall reads. Connect to Discord by signing up as a free or paid member of my Bindery: pucksandpaperbacks.binderybooks.com

◼ ABOUT ME ◼
Hi, I'm Alex! My pronouns are he/him and I am a trans man. Welcome to my channel, Pucksandpaperbacks. I love to uplift queer and trans books from Young Adult fiction, queer romances & graphic novels, to memoirs. Thanks for stopping by!

Note: I do not give books star ratings. It's just a personal preference of mine. In all of my videos, I just review the books.
