What Gay Books Would You Recommend

#1 Posted 23/11/2008 23:37

What gay books for men would you recommend. I'm looking for positive role models and literature which discusses coming to terms with sexuality.

When I was going through the "coming out" thingie, I found "How to be a Happy Homosexual" (awful title!) quite useful, and "A stranger in the Family" helped my parents and brother.
This was some, erm, 20 years ago now, so there are no doubt many more available.

I've read Geography which is about a bunch of teenagers who form a secret group for the gay students at school. Might not be your thing, but it's all I could suggest.
