Queer Author Of Queer Books

I'm Alina Capella, an indie author of LGBT+ books with happy endings...Most of the time. Sometimes I write contemporary, sometimes I write fantasy, but one thing you can be sure of is that all of my books are very, very queer. My books are available in print, and in ebook format on Amazon! Be sure to check them out, and leave a review if you like them! Every review helps! ^-^

The Tengu And The Angel:

Night Of The Blue Moon:

Blood On A Yellow Rose:

Night Of The Justified Deaths: The magical lesbians get a new assignment! There’s a rogue grim reaper who’s killing bad people to rid the world of scum—Except that’s not what she’s really doing. And they need the help of more Greek gods to defeat her. Something something commentary about how mediocre people worship monsters who don’t give a shit about them to make themselves feel less mediocre.

Night Of The War Between Gods: The Greek gods learn the value of tolerating family for the sake of winning a second titanomachy against Kronos and his allies. And the magical lesbians get relationship advice from Hades, who has somehow become their adoptive father despite starting their relationship as their reluctant mentor.

Love Me Louder: An aspiring singer, a college rugby player, and an idol who dreams of making her own music fall in love. And there’s commentary about the dangers of playing rugby, and how it can and often does cause life changing injuries. Also there’s commentary on the toxicity of Japan’s idol industry, and how idols are meant to sell the illusion that they’re ‘available’ to their fans while not being allowed to form meaningful relationships with anyone.

The Fall And Rise Of Natsu O’Hara (Cheesy as fuck, and I hated it, but I had to name the document something)

Don’t Speak, We’re Dead

Our Love’s Too Loud

What Would Pammie Burnett Do?

This was a fun read with a strong focus on found family, finding acceptance, and living in spite of those who pressure others to conform.

I liked the amount of casual representation within the main cast—A pirate ship that has travelled all over the world would be expected to have a lot of diverse crew members, and I loved that it did. The representation for each of the main crew members was authentic, and no one felt tokenised. The casual neurodiversity representation within the main crew was also something I really appreciated—Sherine’s hyperfixation on fish and sea monsters was really fun, and I liked that it came in useful multiple times—Baiting the Kraken into destroying an enemy ship, summoning Charybdis, and even convincing nymphs and sirens to work with them to defeat Plague.

I love books that plumb the depths of the depravity within people’s minds—And this did not disappoint, especially with Hawea’s arc. He’s in love with Lesia, and he’s convinced that she must feel the same way about him, but he refuses to accept the reality that she doesn’t. This led to an incredibly fascinating downfall for Hawea—In refusing to accept the fact that he cannot have Lesia, he’s able to swallow Plague’s agenda almost without question. Hawea knows better than anyone else that Plague is more interested in torturing people for not being what others expect of them than she is in helping them, but he doesn’t care—He wants Lesia, and if he has to break her to make her his, then so be it. Thankfully, he doesn’t get to do that—The crew of the Clinic, plus the sirens and nymphs, come in clutch to save Lesia from Plague and Hawea, and the Clinic continues its mission to save those who are tormented by the likes of Plague for being different.

Overall, this was a fun, emotional read with a strong focus on found family, and I would recommend it.

Natsu: You tried to hit on Pamela!

Zinnia: And?

Pamela: You cried when I told you that I was married.

Tama: Theo, how do we put this delicately?

Kunio: You’re a horrible friend and nobody likes you.

Nathaniel: Kunio, why don’t we put that in an ‘I feel’ statement? Theo, when you do this, it makes us feel…

Kunio: Ok, Theo, when you hang out with us, it makes us feel angry.

To that, I have one thing to say: Do you think that feeling bad about others is helpful? It isn’t. Feeling bad about other people’s suffering isn’t going to make a difference, and neither is me not feeling bad about others.
