Malinda Lo: Last Night at the Telegraph Club (2021, Penguin Young Readers Group)

Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can’t remember exactly when the question took root, but the answer was …

A really good read.

This was a lovely coming-of-age story where a Chinese teen realizes she may be queer in a time where it is illegal for gays to gather together still. It was not a super fluffy book by any means, but also remained fairly light with everything that happened. I feel like this would be a good starting point for showing the hate that has always existed for those deemed lesser. Definitely one I would recommend.
