“My comfort show right now is Love in the Big City, a Boys’ Love series based on an award-winning novel chronicling a young gay man’s journey of love and acceptance in modern-day Seoul. I highly recommend this show because the author Sang Young Park wrote all eight episodes, and it marks the first major queer series produced by a major company in South Korea. It’s only gained popularity because detractors tried to prevent the show from airing. American viewers can watch it on Viki if you’re interested. I guarantee you’ll never forget this poignant drama series and its relatable characters. I can’t wait to read the book now.”
“As for my comfort book this year, I just finished The Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman, an illuminating prequel to her novel Practical Magic. A saga brimming with magical realism and romance, readers follow siblings Frances, Bridget, and Vincent Owens as they navigate the mid-twentieth century while outwitting their family’s curse of doomed love. READ. THIS. BOOK.”
