Welcome to Reads Rainbow
a blog dedicated to LGBT media, where we aim to give you reviews, recs and information about new releases!
A little bit about the blog: we hope to provide you with reviews of already released books, films and tv shows, as well as offering rec lists and keeping you apprised of new LGBT releases. We want to primarily consider ownvoices media, but we will also be reviewing non-ownvoices media, and reccing those we think are good. We will also try to indicate where the media is diverse in other ways, and whether that is ownvoices representation or not.
ABOUT ANNA
(twitter @ heresthepencil)
Hi, I’m Anna! I’m a 30 year old lesbian from Poland and I work full-time at a city hall. Nowadays I usually read YA literature (I might be old, but the feelings described in those books are relatable to all & somehow more real than in adult lit) and more specifically contemporary books, with some sff thrown in every once in a while. I’m also very big on poetry. The list of my favourite authors is quite long but to name just a few: Melina Marchetta, Natasha Pulley, Kayla Ancrum, Brandon Sanderson, and for poets: Ocean Vuong, Richard Siken, Ada Limón, Sappho, Kaveh Akbar.
ABOUT CHARLOTTE
(twitter @ mahitdzmare)
Hi, I’m Charlotte! I’m 22 and studying for my Masters degree in Sport Psychology this year. My reading oscillates between finishing something in a day, maybe two, and not finishing it for months on end. (There really is no in-between.) My favourite genres are historical mystery and fantasy (and probably also sports fiction, now I think about it). Some of my favourite authors are Patrick Ness, Melina Marchetta, and Megan Whalen Turner. I also blog over at tealeafreads.
