Pride Month 2023: what are your LGBTQ+ media recommendations?

With Pride Month starting to draw to a close, we'd love to know if you have any TV, film, book, music etc. recommendations? :pride:

One of mine would be heartstopper, it's so wholesome and a lovely watch (for the most part). Also in terms of music I'd recommend Lucy Spraggan :smile:

Tagging in @shadowdweller who might be able to give quite a few book recommendations!

the film 'portrait of a lady on fire'. do everything you can to avoid spoilers before watching, for one of the best films I've ever seen.

I have SO MANY book recommendations! If anyone had a particular genre they're interested in then just tag me and I can list some books for you :biggrin:

In general, I highly recommend any books by Emma Sterner-Radley - she has some rom-coms, but also some fantasy ones - and Amanda Radley who writes rom-coms and some cozy mysteries too :smile:
