I’m a queer book nerd who loves science (dinosaurs!), cooking (everything!), and getting way too emotionally invested in fictional characters. I’ve always loved the power of queer YA stories. They’ve meant everything to me. They’re the kind of books I wish I’d had growing up, and the kind that still give me hope, even when the world feels like it’s running low on it.
Now, more than ever, queer stories matter.
For a long time, I didn’t have anyone to talk to about the books I loved. Most of my friends didn’t read queer YA, or they didn’t even read at all. That’s why I started The Boy in Chapter Three. To build a space for community, connection, and shared joy. I didn’t want to rely on trends or algorithms or AI to decide what I read next. Too many beautiful, heartfelt stories get left behind when the powers that be decide they’re not worth boosting up your feed.
That's why I'm here. And I’m so glad you are too.
