“You Would Make a Great Lesbian”

Buckle up because today, we’re talking to The BookstaGays! We had the most fun, most chaotic interview with Alex (@thebookadvocate) and Sam (@staxsonstaxs), who are cohosts of everyone’s favorite queer bookish podcast. We chat with them about bookstagram, the importance of queer community, and—duh—enneagrams! So get excited, and let’s pour one out for Becky and her never-failing editing skills. Stay tuned for some book talk. Today we have YA historical fiction, a new favorite for Kayla, a memoir recommended by none other than Alex, and a queer biography-memoir hybrid. Thanks for listening!
