03.Mar.2010 Substitute For Love
It’s a poor substitute for your old-timey neighborhood gay bookshoppe, but Lambda Literary (as in Lamdba Literary Awards) has launched a new site that features readers advisory, contests, and book reviews. It looks promising. It’s hard not to miss those great, slightly creepy gay book stores that sold beefcake greeting cards, gay-positive health books, tacky calendars, porno, and literature, but I guess it’s just the ticket price of living in the current era. Remember how much better stuff used to be at other, unspecified times in the past?
