After my last report, I made a concerted effort to read the physical books in my unread stack. I managed to read six actual books, four of which were new, one old, and one borrow. I have two other physical books in progress, plus 11 more on the shelf. In that sense, it feels like […]
Four of the books on this list were read in physical form!
Ah… I’ve been reading. And reading – but not as much as I’ve read before.
It turns out that I left a book off of my last list, so book 24 wasn’t the XYZ Affair, it was Men in the Sun.

Ah… now that I’m feeling better, I thought it was time to update everybody on what I’ve read – since I am keeping track of books that I read in 2015.
Book number two was, as I feared, embarrassing: BAMF (SJD Peterson; Kindle) – a gay romance novel. Unfortunately it was not particularly well written. […]
As y’all may have noticed, I was in New Orleans and Montreal last month – a weeklong trip to French parts of North America.
Michel de Broin’s Revolutions: Climb infinitely.
At the same time, the trip had some nice moments of symmetry – things that reflected back and made the overall trip fantastic.

I just finished reading Raising My Rainbow: Adventures in Raising a Fabulous, Gender Creative Son, by Lori Duron. She chronicles her experiences raising her youngest son, CJ, who, despite being a boy, loves all things Barbie, pink, and fabulous.
He abhors boy things.
The book is really fantastic – in part because she does not […]
A few weeks ago I noticed on Queerty that California schools are going to include GLBT-themed books in their curriculum.
The news bit included the cover of two of the books on the list, Totally Joe and I am J. I own Totally Joe – and while it’s been awhile since I’ve actually read it, […]
This past week one of my favorite authors, David Levithan, had his newest book published, Every Day, over in the United States.
Historically speaking, I would now be excited, in the abstract, order the book, then have to wait for me and the book to unite, whether via a visiting friend’s suitcase or me making […]
For several years, every time I’ve returned from the States, I’ve carried a lot of books – and then spent a month or two reading them (or longer). I buy books in the US and not Germany because there’s a wider selection and better pricing when it comes to English language books.
That’s not to […]
Awesome Airport Art
The flight from London to Detroit was, as the pilot promised, 30 minutes from take off to touch down—and with it, my journey home began.
The funniest moment of the day, for me, was my trip through security at the London Airport. The polite and nice security guard appreciated the fact […]
Saturday in Berlin, before heading to the mp3 Experiment, Snooker and I stopped by the new Exile gallery located near Hallesches Tor. To read about it though, you’ll need to click through—and keep in mind that while there are no photos in this particular blog entry, the text might be NSFW.

TQE : That Queer Expatriate I'm an American living in Berlin, Germany -- which makes me an expatriate, not an ex-patriot. Before landing in Germany, I've lived in Denver, Colorado; Laramie, Wyoming; Bloomington, Indiana; and Weimar, Germany. If you want to write to me, feel free!
