Queerly Recommended

Current Kris thanks Past Kris for being an adult and having a super low deductible. Tara shares stories from her life in the freezing north, leading to a cross-cultural exchange of their experiences with frigid temperatures. It’s cold, y’all.

Official Recommendations

From Kris: The Traitors, season 3 (Peacock)

Kris’s official recommendation this week is the third season of The Traitors, the American version of the Dutch reality television series. Similar to other social deduction games like Werewolf or Mafia, The Traitors has a group of people, most of whom are labeled "faithful" and others as "traitors." Every night, the traitors gather to vote off someone from the group, thereby murdering them. The goal is to get to the end as either a faithful or a traitor to win the prize. Kris loves this show, especially for its queer cast.

From Tara: Number Six by Lee Winter

Tara’s official recommendation this week is Number Six by Lee Winter. The third in her Villains Series, it's an opposites-attract lesbian romance set in Hotel Duxton (from Hotel Queens), and Tara LOVED it. In addition to appreciating the excellent romance and laughs, this book made her think about the characters in a way that only the best books do.
