Gemma's stuff, definitely. Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World; maybe some of Timothy Findley, some of Robertson Davies (the weirdness extends to all of Southern Ontario with him). I have mixed feelings about Davies -- I read a lot of his works in high school and he gave me a set of LGBT stereotypes which were somewhat more positive than those floating around pop culture at the time (well, the lesbians were more positive anyway). For the past couple of decades I've found him uncomfortably classist, though recently I'm starting to reconsider that: IIRC there's at least one scene in which a character says to their friends, "look, you grew up urban/middle class, and you're well-meaning, so you tend to romanticize rural/working class people, but trust me -- that's the background I escaped from, and there are just as many awful people there as in your social circles," which may be the point he's trying to make with a number of the more grating characters. I still feel like it wasn't fair to make Sweetness a punching bag for the narrative. None of this will make sense if you haven't read Lyre of Orpheus.
