Tracking YA LGBT books
Author and blogger Malinda Lo is doing something really fascinating.
In this post and others, she lists all of this year's YA novels with LGBT characters from a short list of (I believe) US presses, and then breaks down a bunch of statistics about them.
I found it interesting reading. She closes with an exhortation for people to write more books with non-straight characters -- I'm doing my part so far! :)
