I finished my annotated bibliography, and I think I definitely found a lot of good secondary sources that I can use for my paper. I found ones that address the bigger parts of my paper, like the binaries of gender and sexual orientation. I also found ones that can represent smaller aspects of my paper, like safe spaces for queer people. There are a few on the time period and background for my books, and I found sources that can go with both of my books. One area that I do think my secondary sources are lacking in is that I don’t have any secondary sources that mention another book that much. I tried to research for a scholarly source that used “Gender Queer” by Maia Kobabe, and couldn’t find any. I also searched for the books “More Happy Than Not” and “This Is How You Lose the Time War.” Both of these books focus on sexuality as well, but I couldn’t find anyone who wrote about them. My discussion is next week so I am going to ask the class if they have any recommendations for other books or things to research for my secondary sources.
