Love, Simon is...Amazing

Has anyone seen Love, Simon yet? It's amazing. I'm seriously in love with it and ready to go back and see it again. I'll have a more full review on my ShootingStarsMag blog tomorrow, if you want to keep an eye out. However, I'm also taking other people's thoughts about the movie because I hope to share those in a post this Friday. So if you've seen the movie and have something to add, let me know, or if you wrote your own blog review of the film, send me a link and I'll happily share that too!

Now, if Love, Simon is our near you and you aren't sure about seeing it...please, please do! Or buy a ticket or someone who wants to see it. Show the movie studios we want more LGBT+ movies and hopefully Love, Simon will do so well, they'll make them.

Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda is Becoming a Movie!

One of my favorite book is Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli and I'm so excited that it's been optioned to become a film. Not only that but it actually has a director attached and that would be Greg Berlanti, who has most recently been working on hit shows like Arrow and The Flash. You can learn a bit more about the film and Berlanti by reading this Hollywood Reporter article.

Who has read this book? Are you excited about a movie version? If you have not read the book, check it out on Goodreads now!

LGBT News/Reviews: Recommend to Me

made in PicMonkey ... just something fun for the post!

This Thursday in the United States is Thanksgiving. I'm grateful that I'll be off that day and Friday, but leading up to Thursday and even this coming weekend, I will be at work. Since I won't have a lot of time to schedule out posts, I thought I would start this week off with something a little easy for you all!

Recommend any LGBT-themed books, movies, musicians, etc. Anyone you want me to feature on the blog? I try and keep things at a YA level but I know that can differ on who is reading the book ... so don't worry about age level. Share what interests you! I might start sharing all things LGBT+ and not focusing so much on age level in the new year. What do you think about this?

 Any upcoming LGBT -themed entertainment news you want to share with me? I'd be happy to make a post or link up sometime in the near future if it's something you want everyone to know!
