I've been pondering Say Yes to Gay YA

What I think has come of this controversy is one thing: the best way to promote LGBTQ in YA books is to buy them, but they're not always easy to find or advertised as having LGBTQ characters.

There is one list being compiled by tanuki_green here: Science Fiction and Fantasy YA novels with Major LGBTQ characters, but I'm sure there must be many more out there, and of many other genres too.

So dear flist I come to you.

1) Do you know of any websites that specialise in LGBTQ books and have a YA section which you would recommend?
2) Do you know of anyone else who has compiled lists of YA books with LGBT characters, be they main or supporting characters?
3) Do you have any other book recommendations and links to where they may be purchased?

Thank you ever so much for any assistance.
