If you are looking for a new YA thriller/murder mystery with Queer rep and Deaf rep, Secrets Don’t Stay Buried by @jdmillswrites.com needs to be on your list! I loved the plot and the twists. The characters were all interesting. And seeing Deaf rep for a main character was eye opening. #booksky

There are currently only 22 films streaming on Netflix made before 1980 and not a single one made before 1960, with the oldest film on the platform currently being PSYCHO. I know I’m a broken record but: buy physical media, support your local library, etc etc

SECRETS DON’T STAY BURIED is a gripping story of love, betrayal, and survival at a college for the deaf. Expect #deaf & #queer representation, #BIPOC characters, and intense themes like blood-curdling #revenge, killer #blackmail, and #sapphic romance. How far would you go to protect your secrets?

These tropes include Deaf and queer representation, sapphic & bisexual first love, killer blackmail, blood-curdling revenge, BIPOC characters, American Sign Language, creepy texts, and a coming-of-age story set at a college for the Deaf. The background is textured like crumpled paper.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hkujc5sqrxdovljbstdoimed/bafkreidedwq2w2uc35ohp3osp2b6yq4ecye75bfvafapmicbyhq5zsrmni@jpeg)

From #ownvoices #disability and #chronicillness representation to creating characters fueled by coffee and (healthy) rage—these are the tropes I embrace as a #deafshelf #author who values authentic #queer relationships and characters. What tropes define your story?
