It's LGBT+ History Week, so today's post features some suggestions for reading that highlight this year's theme of how to be a good LGBT+ ally.
The Binding by Bridget Collins
Recommended by the High Master
Set in an alternative version of something that seems like 19th Century England, it’s an incredible novel which offers a gothic explanation of the magic of books and stories and leads readers through the unraveling of an elusive mystery. However, Collins also creates a powerful metaphor for the horror of having society impose restrictions upon individuals which prevent them from being with those they love. A rare combination of being a page turner which packs a moral and emotional punch. For 16+ readers.
