LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST
A transgender reporter’s “powerful, profoundly moving” narrative tour through the surprisingly vibrant queer communities sprouting up in red states (New York Times Book Review), offering a vision of a stronger, more humane America.
Ten years ago, Samantha Allen was a suit-and-tie-wearing Mormon missionary. Now she’s a GLAAD Award-winning journalist happily married to another woman. A lot in her life has changed, but what hasn’t changed is her deep love of Red State America, and of queer people who stay in so-called “flyover country” rather than moving to the liberal coasts.
In Real Queer America, Allen takes us on a cross-country road-trip stretching all the way from Provo, Utah to the Rio Grande Valley to the Bible Belt to the Deep South. Her motto for the trip: “Something gay every day.” Making pit stops at drag shows, political rallies, and hubs of queer life across the heartland, she introduces us to scores of extraordinary LGBT people working for change, from the first openly transgender mayor in Texas history to the manager of the only queer night club in Bloomington, Indiana, and many more.
Capturing profound cultural shifts underway in unexpected places and revealing a national network of chosen family fighting for a better world, Real Queer America is a treasure trove of uplifting stories and a much-needed source of hope and inspiration in these divided times.

Solid Affordable Duvet Insert Comforter
Color: White, Size: Queen
This is a great affordable all-season duvet insert comforter. There are multiple tie downs to attach to the duvet cover, not just the 4 corners. It is soft and washes well. It's plenty warm in the cold but might be too much during the hotter months. I live in San Diego where the average yearly temperature is at least 70 degrees. During the majority of the year this comforter ended up being too warm for me. I've used it for nearly 2 years but just replaced it with the much thinner Bedsure cooling comforter. If you're a hot sleeper or live in a warm climate, I'd recommend that product. This is still a good comforter, just not for me.

Must have!
Color: Light Grey, Size: Queen
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This comforter is absolutely amazing! It feels like something you'd find in a luxury hotel—soft, lightweight, airy, and incredibly comfortable. It has quickly become one of the best purchases I've made. The quality exceeded my expectations, and it's perfect for staying cozy without feeling too heavy.
My kids love it so much that they're constantly trying to steal it from me! If you're looking for a comfortable, high-quality comforter, I highly recommend this one. You won't be disappointed!

Cozy, warm and not heavy
Color: White, Size: Queen
This blanket is great and for a fair price, so fluffy and it’s on the warmer side but not heavy, which is exactly what I wanted!

Not Bulky, Not Too Warm
Color: White, Size: Twin
This is a great comforter. I have purchased others that were way too bulky. This one is perfect. It is lightweight and seems ideal for warmer temperatures. I am not too hot in the middle of the night. We are heading into Summer but I am sure this will be fine for Summer heat or for Air Conditioners.

Nice Sheet
Color: Grey, Size: Queen
This sheet is great! The way they have the corners secured it will stay on and never slip off. It also has a tag letting you know which is top or bottom. The sheet is very smooth to lay on. I find that Bedsure items are well made and last a long time!
