    Wow I never saw this happening because Dubai's meant to be really homophobic.

    I was at the mall, we were about to go to the cinema but we were early so I went into the book shop next door. I went searching for authors of gay books (I do it automatically these days) but didn't expect to find anything because I never had before and Dubai's homophobic.

    Therefore I was pleasantly surprised when I came across gay books by Julie Ann Peters. I actually bought one called 'Far from Xanadu'. Unfortunately they didn't have 'Keeping you a secret', which I really want to get my hands on one day, but what the heck, just there being gay books there at all is something. :slight_smile:

    Hey!
    Over here its common to see her books. I've been wanting to read both of those....not brave enough to actually buy it...but they look good! I think Barnes and Noble is a world wide supplier...they should have it!
