Pride Chat #4: June Favorites (Pride Edition)

Source

How Pride Month is already nearly over, I have no idea, but I thought I would take the opportunity of the month ending to share some of my favorite things from the past month, but with a LGBTQA+ twist. Also, if you might recall, I wanted to make a Pride Chat post each Sunday of June, but I went to California last week and missed last Sunday, so I thought I could do it today and at least get four little chats out there. Without further ado, let's see what some of my favorite things are.

Books

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

The two main characters, Aristotle "Ari" and Dante are two boys growing up in East Texas during the 1980s who become fast friends, even though it seems like they have nothing in common at first.

You can buy this book on Amazon now HERE.

This Book Is Gay

This book is helpful no matter how you identify. It's more like a gay instruction manual on how to handle life when you're LGBTQA+ it covers a lot of stuff. It's even a helpful book if you're straight. Plus, it's funny. Who doesn't love a funny book that's also gay as hell? Count me in.

Will Grayson, Will Grayson
Written by John Green and David Levithan, this book explores the lives of two boys, both named Will Grayson who end up meeting unexpectedly. Their lives become intertwined as the reader learns the story of two boys with the same name, but very different lives.

Music

Saint California
The sophomore album by Ieuan is breathtakingly beautiful. Not only is the artist himself gay, but so are his songs. He openly uses male pronouns in his dreamlike melodies. I've had the album on repeat for weeks, not going to lie.
You can buy it on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play, or stream it on Spotify.

Blue Neighbourhood (Deluxe)
The debut album by Troye Sivan was released late 2015, but it still holds plenty of bops. I may be partial, considering I've been watching Troye grow as a musician since early 2013, but I still love this album and all his music. "Heaven" is still one of my favorite gay songs tbh.
You can buy it on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play, or stream it on Spotify.

Sleepover
This single by the Queen of the Gays is beautiful and gay, just like everything Hayley Kiyoko does. Another recommendation is Girls Like Girls, but the Sleepover single is easier to link.
You can buy it on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play, or stream it on Spotify.

Girls/Girls/Boys
Honestly, Panic! at the Disco can do no wrong, but this song off Too Weird To Live, Too Rare To Die is my bi anthem.
You can buy the album on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play, or stream it on Spotify.

Accessories

Pride Flag
What's Pride Month without a pride flag? I bought my bi pride flag from Amazon here, but they also have the rainbow flag, and a trans flag.

Pride Pin
These little lapel pins are so cute. They have a rainbow pin, a bi pin, a pan pin, a trans pin, and so many others. Instead of linking to each pride pin, I'm just linking to the general search with all their pride pins here.

I hope you enjoy some (or all) of these things as much as I do! If you get anything let me know, or leave a comment below telling me some of your favorite pride related things.
