"Nothing can be queerer than getting out of your comfort zone.” —Samantha Allen, Real Queer America: LGBT Stories from Red States
Fiction Choice:
Gaslight by Miles Joris-Peyrafitte and Sara Shepard: Rebecca's life is perfect: she has the perfect house, perfect husband, and perfect kids.

With all of her deception, Rebecca can only come to one conclusion: it's all part of the cult Danny's been in for the last 10 years. Can Rebecca keep her perfect life or will the danger closing in change everything?
