#guncle

Happy Gay Uncles Day! Today we celebrate the guncles—the gay uncles, queer aunties, and fabulous godparents who bring extra sparkle, laughter, and love to family life.

A guncle might be the one sneaking you an extra dessert at dinner, slipping you the best life advice, or introducing you to your new favorite song. They’re the relatives who make holidays more fun, family gatherings more memorable, and everyday life more colorful.

But Gay Uncles Day isn’t just about fun—it’s about visibility. Celebrating queer relatives helps normalize LGBTQ+ presence in family life, showing that love, support, and pride come in all shapes and colors.

We're intentionally slow going to give ourselves time for the other books we wish to read. It also took her a while to decide what book she wanted for us. I know she kept being drawn back to The Guncle and I'm glad she finally went with it! It was emotional, hopeful, sweet, and a dash of silly!

The Guncle takes place in the summer following Sara's death. It focuses on the grief of Patrick (her best friend and brother-in-law), Maisie (her daughter and older child), and Grant (her son and younger child). Their father has been struggling with addiction and checks himself into rehab, leaving the children in Patrick's reluctant care for the summer. Patrick was a popular actor, but has been hiding in Palm Springs for many years now. Stubborn Maisie and questioning Grant aren't exactly excited about it either, but they'll need each other to get through the summer and mourning period. The experience might just change them in the best of ways.
