what book's worth a prize this year?

The deadline for submitting nominees for the Lambda Literary Award is rapidly approaching (it's Tuesday). So this is your last chance to nudge authors and publishers to submit books for consideration.

The better the nominees, the better the reputation of the award, and so the better the reputation of quiltbag literature as a whole. So, you see, it's your duty to make these nominations happen.

What was your favourite f/sf book with LGBT characters this year? What memoir made you thoughtful? What queer poetry made your heart thump? Any YA fiction grab you?

As you know, I really liked Ash, by Malinda Lo--though, hmmn, should it go under YA, or bisexual, or f/sf? Tricky...

So, tell me, what would you nominate if you could? Let's see if we can make it happen for some lucky writer.
