Only mostly devastated ⭐⭐⭐idk by Sophie Gonzales
Actually set in America but written by Sophie Gonzales (an Australian author). It wasn't as good as I thought it would be but was still overall good. The book is a mlm romance with a magical summer fling who meet again. I didn't expect to cry in this book but i did ;,0 it H U R T
these are probably all 11+ you/they just have to be mature?
The monuments trilogy (+the greatest hit)⭐⭐⭐.5
Will Kostakis
A really unknown queer fantasy book serious, THE LAST BOOK MADE ME CRY SO HARD the hardest I've cried over a book (and I've read song of Achilles) i literally started wattpad so i could write a sequel (never finished it :0). And can I just say the authors is absolutely hilarious and so nice. (Ive meet him). He has written many other amazing books (all aussie and good just haven't gotten to them) a more well know is the greatest hit is a short shappic story. He also has fantastic mini stories on goodreads. go check him out!
The boy from the mish ⭐⭐️⭐.5
Gary Lonesborough
Is a a romance/coming of age YA novel about two aboriginal queer kids and their story.
Kiffo and the whole deal with the pitbull ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5
WHAT..i thought this was a comedy. The book is really funny about a boy, Kiffo's and Calma's, little memoir told by Calma p.o.v but when you realize why...😳😭 I loved this book it was hilarious but was VERY surprised with the ending still waiting to read its not all about you Carlma (second book) and i would like the Australian educational department to all read and take notes. THE LAST PAGE THOUGH 😭😭😭😭
also if anyone knows how calma feels about kiffo in the last chapter please tell me :)
