Okay, so at my college I've become a part of the G.S.A. club and I'm wanting to start a library for our club cause yeah... There's like nothing and I think it'd be a neat addition.

>_> Considering that the earlier members never really did anything but spend club funds on themselves... So yeah, any real suggestions for books that I could suggest to the group. Any and all help is majorly appreciated guys and gals.

Thankies. smile

    I come by every day but there's usually no one here~ ;_; I would certainly suggest a few higher reading-level books, esp. since you're in college (meaning I'd bypass the youth-level GLBT 'discovery' type books). A few of my choice favorites would make for good reading: As Meat Loves Salt by Maria McCann is good. I also enjoy a few books by Alan Hollinghurst; namely The Swimming Pool Library and The Folding Star.

    These, of course, are all fiction; but non-fiction would be a great addition to that library too. I'll have to look up some more books for ya. ^^
