The Sunflower Boys
“A harrowing and gorgeous tale of love, identity, lost innocence, and survival set in a time of devastating war, The Sunflower Boys is a powerful, heartrending exploration of young queer love, the Ukrainian spirit, and a family’s struggle to survive.”

Subtle, beautiful, soft-spoken, and tender, yet every page feels imminently dangerous. A really good read.

My Friends by Fredrik Backman.
Wow, what a novel… about art, friendship, love, loss, youth, and more. A central character is gay.
