I'm looking to get myself a few LGBT themed books for my own library, and if I like them enough, things I can recommend to the Pride group at the school I used to go to.  They have a library of books they give to people to read depending on if they identify themselves as allies or within the ' queer' sphere.  However, the ally part is pretty small, and that which is there are all older books, nothing really recent. 

Anything that anyone here would suggest?  It doesn't have to be specifically ally-oriented.  Just something that you would recommend one read.

Thanks!!
