Wow. I guess I am first. I read my first book for the challenge after finding it on Goodreads. I was super excited to read it and Martin Wilson did not let me down.

OK I just figured out how to do this! Yay me! I hope to post a lot because I'm trying to review at least a book a week, and all of them with GLBT characters/authors. Looks like fun!
I'm not sure how & where to post my book reviews. Here's the link to my first for 2011:

There's a Mr. Linky in the post. You put your name and the name of the book read in the first entry, and then the URL in the second, hit enter, and it'll add you to the form. :)
A GBLT read from a Japanese author, my review on Quicksand by Junichiro Tanizaki is up! thanks for hosting this. :)
hi-please remove link 45-I hit the enter key too quick-
No problem, I deleted it. :)
Hurray! My friends told me Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit was a must, so I tried it. And have now been eating a lot of oranges.
Ok, I fail and didn't post the name of the book. Could you delete 64? :)
No problem, I deleted that one. :)
Okay so I found the reviews! Sorry for the confusion. I'm reposting them here.
I forgot to do this part but now that I have an active review blog, I can post the link to it. Yay!
And I think one of the books I'm about to read counts since reviewers have said the main character is bi. Can't wait to start reading.
I reviewed Jeffrey Eugenides' Middlesex here: http://mostlyhere-readingchallenges.blogspot.com/2011/03/jeffrey-eugenides-middlesex.html
My second book, I actually took it out of the library for a boqating challenge:
2. Kahn, E. M. Deep Water
This is Kahn's first novel, but not his last. Within sight of Manhattan
most of the time, Gene a committed sailor, and his lover Kevin who he teaches to
sail. Gene had a less then stellar career as a journalist and turns to ships
carpentry. This is the love story of Gene and Kevin and their love of sailing.
