<![CDATA[Recomend something new to read?]]>Hi,
Looking for something new gay-related to read.

Mostly enjoy SF/F or gay themed. Have had a bad run of current gay novels where the authors start strong and then fall back on generic tropes or fail to develop the story in favor of bland, extended sex scenes.

Last three excellent gay books I've read:

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe - by Benjamin Alire Sáenz (billed as YA but goes so much more than that.)

After Ben - by Con Riley

Thrown Off the Ice - by Taylor Fitzpatrick. Don't let that it's billed as a M/M hockey romance fool you, this is one of my favorite novels of all time.

It's a fantasy series. She does include explicit sex scenes but she doesn't let them get in the way of the story. The books are:

Book 1: The Magpie Lord
Book 2: A Case of Possession
Book 3: Flight of Magpies

Set in the same world, I also liked Rag and Bone.
