The Boy Behind the Books

Four amazing people Oly. I've always had a soft spot for Robert Graves and Marcus Hirschfield's books sound fascinating- plus one has a great cover!

Hey Oliver! Nice list of books! I figured I would put you on the spot since you swore off TBR's and tags! I tagged you in my last video! Cheers Oly! (I'm so mean.)

I'm going to see if I can find a copy of stonewall and I'm very much looking forward to the fiction video. I may buy marching with Marsha and sneak it into the class bookshelf too and see what the reaction is. If you have any children's LGBT fiction recommendations, I would love them
