Gay interracial books

What makes stories about interracial relationships so intriguing? Well, maybe it might be the fact that, not that long ago, marriage between people of two unlike races was illegal in America. Even today, they’re still not that common: 10% of all marriages in the US are interracial, and 7% for the UK, where I live. What is it that keeps us from pursuing them? A myriad of reasons, I imagine: societal, cultural, familial.

It’s why I wrote Good Intentions, to explore an interracial relationship between a Pakistani Muslim man and a Dark Muslim woman in the U.K. My novel begins when Nur meets Yasmina at university. They fall in love, with the speed of youth, and start to commit to one another. But when Yasmina invites Nur into the entirety of her world, introducing him to her family, Nur holds back. He refuses to tell his family about her, because he believes his parents won’t accept her because she is Black.

Unlike all the other relationships I had seen, presented on page or in film and TV, I wanted to remove whiteness from the equation. What does an interracial relation

Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston (14th)

A big-hearted romantic comedy in which First Son Alex falls in love with Prince Henry of Wales after an incident of international proportions forces them to pretend to be best friends&#;

First Son Alex Claremont-Diaz is the closest thing to a prince this side of the Atlantic. With his intrepid sister and the Veep’s genius granddaughter, they’re the White Dwelling Trio, a lovely millennial marketing move for his mother, President Ellen Claremont. International socialite duties do have downsides—namely, when photos of a confrontation with his longtime nemesis Prince Henry at a royal wedding leak to the tabloids and threaten American/British relations.

The design for damage control: staging a phoney friendship between the First Son and the Prince. Alex is busy enough handling his mother’s bloodthirsty opponents and his own political ambitions without an uptight royal slowing him down. But beneath Henry’s Prince Charming veneer, there’s a soft-hearted eccentric with a desiccate sense of humor and more than one ghost haunting him.

When I reach into the YA QUILTBAG, I’m not usually looking for the hard stuff. Coming to terms with your actual world while also living on the streets or dealing with an awful family or drowning your sorrows in drugs and prostitution can be for a different reader. I’m just looking for gooey fluffiness. To be fair, sometimes that gooey fluffiness is couched in coming to terms with your existence while also living on the streets or dealing with an awful family or drowning your sorrows in drugs and prostitution. But really, I’m usually in search of a cute romance, whether it involves self-realization, coming out, or I’ve-been-out-since-I-was-eight-deal-with-it. Blame David Levithan and too much fanfiction. And it’s been in some of those jewels&#;which can involve their own amount and level of hardship&#;where I’ve create some of the most diversely rich characters. To be fair, when I say “diversity,” I don’t mean “written for an insulated culture that is not white.” I don’t look at Street Lit and think “that’s racially diverse!” because an all-black or all-Latino book is not racially diverse.
