There are no stars at all for some of us

[sovay]

Hey! Internet! I've just been talking about how much it sucks when a novel kills off its queer characters. Especially when there's, like, one of them and they're the one who doesn't make it. Can someone point me toward a list of books where that doesn't happen? Spoilers, whatever.

The Door books are SPLENDID. They hold up very well.

I think of them as being of a piece with Tanya Huff's Quarters books (except the last one, which is racefaily to the max), which also feature happy non-dead queer and poly folk.

I remember your review of that. It sounded dire.

I've read the others—see reply to bookelfe—and am all for their survival and happiness quotient.

Dire is a good word. Yes.
