I have a very close friend, who runs a bookblog, called BooksofAmber. With the imminent arrival of the third installment of a book series called The Raven Cycle, Amber, along with another bookblog, has been hosting a readathon, and she asked me to write a guest post for her blog about these books.

And I jumped at the chance, because QUEER REPRESENTATION IN YA. This book series is awesome, seriously everyone needs to read it, and not just because there is a heartbreakingly beautiful queer relationship developing right alongside a het relationship, but because it's also beautifully written, all about Welsh myths and sleeping kings and magic and psychics and an amazingly angry feminist as a main character. It's just perfect okay, go read it.

BUT, because queer representation is a thing that means a lot to me, that is what this post of mine is about, and I'd really love it if you'd pop over and have a look? The author herself has already read it (and tweeted about it on Twitter SEND HELP I'M HAVING A HEART ATTACK ABOUT THIS FACT), and the response so far has been excellent, and the more traffic I can bring to my friend's blog the better, as far as I'm concerned, haha! Anyway, here is the link and I'd really love to know what y'all think!

*hugs my entire f-list*
