Robin doesn't want to be a tutor. Tyler doesn't want to be tutored. So why are their tutoring sessions always running late? *** After an illness-stricken childhood, Robin Erie struggles to free himself from his mother's suffocating embrace.

Will Robin be able to break free from his mother's shackles to explore his budding feelings for Tyler?

[Featured in FreetheLGBT: Diverse Literature reading list and Humor: Young. Dumb. Full of Fun list] Colin Mitchell, a photographer at a well-known store, Snapshot, is openly gay--mostly.

But then Blake's infuriating thirteen-year-old brother comes into the picture. He plays his music too loud, constantly kicks his soccer ball over the fence and is generally a pain in Luca's ass. When Luca decides he has no other choice but to confront this terror of a middle schooler, he fails to realize that Blake has overheard him until it's too late.

"Getting a Clue" is a slice-of-life story about Casper, an autistic gay teen whose most meaningful relationship is with his dog, Pippi, and whose safe space is his closet-literally. Enter Jethro: confident, boldly expressive, and inexplicably interested in Casper's prickly brand of charm. As Casper battles his instinct to retreat from every social encounter, Jethro patiently flirts his way past Casper's defences. Together, they navigate the minefield of high school, gender expectations, and first love, all while Casper tries to figure out why the hell anyone would voluntarily seek out human connection. With a healthy dose of snark and a dash of awkward romance, this tale proves that sometimes the biggest dramas in life are just... life. Will Casper figure out how to be a functioning human being? Will Jethro ever stop looking unfairly hot in tights? And how hard do you have to flirt before an oblivious gay boy gets a fucking clue? (Warning: Contains catastrophic attempts at small talk, impromptu bus adventures, and a surprising amount of fairy bread.)

[ONC2024] Everyone can read minds except for Ethan Langdon. And Ethan Langdon has the dumbest (and cutest!) thoughts Lukas Hoffmann has ever heard. ____ Part one complete. Part two updating every Friday until completion (but already fully complete on my Kofi!) ____ Lukas Hoffman's life in Brambleburg is about as boring as you'd expect for a town where everyone can read minds.
