In Episode 164, Gen and Jette talk about the graphic novel, Light Carries On, by Ray Nadine. The story follows Leon and the ghost of Cody, who is tethered to Leon's camera. Show NotesIs ghost romance it's own sub-genre? It should be. And if it is we would like to read all the rest of them please. So far in this theme we also have Rules for Ghosting by Shelly Jay Shore and Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas.Speaking of Cemetery Boys, the sequel comes out later this year and we are stoked!We loved the art style in this one and the way that it helped build the atmosphere and tone of the story.Of course graphic novels always get us excited for TCAF (Toronto Comic Arts Festival). It's already in our calendars even though it's not until June. Our next episode is #BookstagramMadeMeDoIt and we're finally reading some Emily Henry.

In Episode 109, Gen and Jette discuss Pet by Akwaeke Emezi. We absolutely loved this one and are now planning on reading everything Emezi has written, including Bitter, the prequel story to Pet. Show Notes: This episode is in keeping with our annual December tradition of replacing a discussion about a certain series featuring a certain boy wizard in favour of queer, and especially trans, stories. Check out last year's discussion of A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee, and our episode on Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas from the year before that. The name of the poem by Dylan Thomas featuring the line "rage against the dying of the light" is called "Do not go gentle into that good night." Another poem that Gen loves is, "In my craft or sullen art." The radio play that she has yet to read is called Under Milk Wood. Emezi's novel You Made A Fool of Death with Your Beauty, their first romance, is partially inspired by Florence + The Machine's song "Hunger." That might be enough for us to give romance a try. Other Books by Akwaeke Emezi Bitter The Death Vivek Oji Freshwater You Made A Fool of Death with Your Beauty Dear Senthuran: A Black Spirit Memoir Don't forget to follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter or email us at hello@anotherbookontheshelf.com.

Für Episode hat Carla ihre gruseligsten, spukigsten und schaurigsten (vielleicht aber auch die niedlichsten) Bücher rund um Halloween (und den Día de Muertos) zusammengesucht.„Keiner gruselt sich vor Gustav“ (von Guido van Genechten. Annette Betz Verlag, 2015) ist ein unglaublich herziges Pappbilderbuch rund um ein liebeswürdiges Gespenst, das total bei sich bleibt. Sein mexikanischer Namensvetter „Gustavo“ (von Flavia Z. Drago, Woow Books, 2022) entspricht auch nicht gerade althergebrachten Gespensterklischees. Ein Highlight dieses Bilderbuchs sind die mexikanischen Elemente in den Illustrationen. Wer spätestens jetzt interessiert ist: „Wie man sich mit einem Gespenst anfreundet“ (von Rebecca Green, Diogenes, 2019) erfährt man in diesem nebelfarbenen Bilderbuch. „Mortina“ (von Barbara Cantini, dtv 2019) ist ein sympathisches Zombiemädchen, das Halloween nutzt, um sich endlich mit Menschenkindern anzufreunden.Wer sich lieber selbst Gruselgeschichten ausdenkt, kann sich von der Gespenster-Box (von Ella Bailey, Laurence King Verlag 2019) inspirieren lassen. Ziemlich gruselig gehts es außerdem in der aktuellen Ausgabe vom Polle-Magazin zu! Inklusive Hörprobe! Text und Musik stammt von Christopher Fellehner „Fledermaus“ (von Charlotte Milner, DK Verlag 2022) ist ein querformatiges Sachbilderbuch, gleichermaßen informativ wie schön, das mit so einigen Mythen über Fledertiere aufräumt und Awareness schafft. Eine trans Coming-Of-Age-Story, die in der lateinamerikanischen Brujx-Community in den USA (und vor allem auf einem Friedhof) spielt und eine unterhaltsame Liebesgeschichte ist der #ownvoices-Roman „Yadriel und Julian. Cemetery boys“ (von Aiden Thomas, Dragonfly 2022).Zu Gast in dieser Episode ist Ileana Seidl von the tiniest bookclub, ihr kennt sie vielleicht schon aus der Episode von den Büchern, die im Dunkeln leuchten.Sie ist Spezialistin für alles was mit Grusel, Spuk und Witchcraft zu tun hat. Außerdem arbeitet sie als Buchhändlerin in Berlin. Sie verrät, was gerade so der spookieste Scheiß am Gruselbuchmarkt ist (nämlich „Boris, Babette und lauter Skelette“ (von Tanja Esch, Kibitz 2022) und „Ringo und die Vampirkaninchen“ (von Katja Spitzer, Mairisch 2022) aber auch generell ihrem persönlichen Halloween-Guide. Hier gehts zu Ileanas Playlist für eure Halloweenparty: Diverse SpuuuksongsLeseratte Ro trennt bei „Hexen hexen“ (von Roald Dahl, illustriert von Pénélope Bagieu, Reprodukt 2020) das Werk vom Autor und empfiehlt diese Comicadaption einer krassen Gruselgeschichte.

Today I'm joined by NYT best selling author, Aiden Thomas, who launched his debut YA novel, Cemetery Boys, during the first year of the pandemic.

Tune in as Ria and Valli (Queerily Ever After) hop onto 2CC for Pride Month 2022, during which queer content will be featured throughout the month of June. For the second episode, the spotlight is on Cemetery Boys, the 2020 YA contemporary paranormal novel by Aiden Thomas (Lost in the Never Woods, The Sunbearer Trials). The journey of self-acceptance that Yadriel, a 16-year-old trans Latinx boy who lives in a traditional brujx cemetery community in East L.A., goes on while also trying to help out Julian Diaz, a rambunctious and deceased (possibly even murdered) classmate whose spirit he accidentally summoned, provides plenty of material for the hosts to discuss. Plus, you can hear them talk about subjects like Portrait of a Lady on Fire being the best lesbian movie, double-checking the pronunciations of words like “brujx” and “Riordan,” the traits of water signs, and Western society's terrified view of the afterlife. TW: transphobia, deadnaming, grief, murder, parental death, homophobia, racism; and brief mentions of animal death, self-harm, cultural appropriation, child abuse, and a car accident Spoilers start at 35:40 Good Word: • Valli: HBO Max's Our Flag Means Death • Ria: Taylor Swift, particularly “seven” from folklore • Arthur: Hannah Gadsby's Netflix standup comedy specials Nanette and Douglas Reach out at email2centscritic@yahoo.com if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!

This week Stephanie and Meg read Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas! First, there are some serious content warning for this book: the main character has to deal with a family who hasn't accepted that he is transgender. Major CW for misgendering, discussions of dead names, and other issues with families that only see the binary. We discuss how wonderful this magical community is, falling in love with a dead boy, when is it appropriate to go to school during a murder mystery, and how bad ass a best friend can be!
