Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle
5.0

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊

Full stars and gators from me for this book! This was my first read-through of a Chuck Tingle work and I enjoyed it a lot. It was incredibly easy to read with pacing that made it truly difficult to put down the book. I read it with the queer horror book club that I host and I think it has so many amazing topics and literary devices. 

- Dealing with trauma
- Subverting toxic tropes
- Standing up for what you believe in
- The capitalist hellscape that Hollywood often is
- The negative ways that technology can be abused in the future
- Ensuring not only your success but the success of those that come after
- Healthy queer relationships
- Gay & asexual representation

All around a very thoughtful piece of work in both the horror genre and as a queer read. Would definitely display on my bookshelf and recommend to others.
