KNOWhomo

BOOKS, Books Everywhere, and Finding a Queer* One for Me!

Are you going home for the Holidays? Do you finally have time to read things for pleasure again? Are you trying to come out to your friends and would like some help?

**Ok, to explain, I kept showing up to Feminist Theory (while I was in undergrad) with different Lesbian/Queer* texts until my adviser finally asked me if I needed to talk. I am the person who used book jackets to start conversations.

Back to the books!

Be sure to check out the KNOWhomo Literature, Theory, and Graphic Novel pages. It’s always a great place to start.

Keep On, Keeping On!
