adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This is a hilarious anthology of queer and camp pulp short stories. I came across this as I was previously writing some pulp trans scifi in a similar vein to some of these, notably the story "Dotch Masher and the Planet 'MM'" but also a few others in here. The styles and genres vary so it can be hit-and-miss depending on your tastes of course but I adored the camp silliness of many of them. It's maybe a bit biased towards cis dudes compared to most of my reading - as you'd expect from the title - but there is still a diversity of characters within. If you're looking for an OTT and slightly horny gay anthology, ripped from the 50s but without the ingrained bigotry of the era, then this is a good call.
