Week Three: Welcome back to the LGBT+ Masterlist Project!

Again, I want to thank you all so much for the contributions you’ve given me since I began this project two weeks ago. I’ve had such a good time finding new media every week and it just makes me really excited to actually start consuming all of it when I get the chance! Until then, feel free to contribute to any of my masterlists by dropping a message in my inbox. I post these masterlists once a week and I try to edit once a week as well so all contributions are greatly appreciated!

Please note, I have not read all of these books, so I can’t be the judge of how good the representation is. This is why I welcome you to respectfully inbox me or reblog with comments.

Thanks again to @mightyachillis for the gifset. Next week’s category: LGBT+ POETRY.
