Bury Your Gays Quotes
“You know who the real villain is?” I persist, strolling through the lobby and joining a line of other writers, directors, cinematographers, and actors as they filter inside to locate their seats. “Unchecked capitalism and the desire for capitalist systems to monetize other people’s trauma.”

“The beats of this particular story are melody to my ears, and I'm certainly not complaining, but they're not the beats I'm used to. Then again, not everything has a perfect structure: a beginning, middle, and end. Not every tale has an act-three synthesis and a obscure night of the soul.
Sometimes life just is.”

Do I deserve it? Probably not.”

Bury Your Gays
I can’t say I’ve read any of Chuck Tingle’s prolific oeuvre of titles love Space Raptor Butt Invasionor Pounded in the Butt by My Handsome Sentient Library Card, but my first entry into the Tingleverse confirmed what the jacket copy and author biography offered: Tingle is a writer and person who leads with love.
Bury Your Gays, his sophomore homosexual horror novel from Tor Nightfire, is testament to the author’s compassionate ethos. Building on the success of Camp Damascus, his horror debut, which I purchased and blazed through immediately after finishing Bury Your Gays, Tingle’s second novel offers readers a harrowing glimpse of what it means to be queer in Hollywood. And every chilling defeat in this story is stronger and more propulsive than the last.
Meet Misha Byrne. He’s basically a young, queer Wes Craven at the midpoint of an already trailblazing career in Tinseltown. He’s got a solid assist catalog of films, and his “X-Files meets Doctor Who”-style TV show is headed for its biggest and baddest season finale yet. The only problem?

Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
**4.5-stars**
Bury Your Gays is a novel that’s perfectly-aligned with a new trend in my reading for 2024, and that is reading books set in, or revolving around, the television and movie industry.
I wasn’t sure what to hope for when I first picked this up. I’ve heard great things about this author’s 2023-release, Camp Damascus, but I’ve never actually read their work before. My final judgement = I need more Tingle!!!
In this story we are following Misha, a long-time Hollywood script writer who has just been nominated for his first Oscar.
It’s as he is on the precipice of this great event that he gets called into a meeting with a studio executive and told that he needs to kill off two widespread gay characters from his Travelers series. Misha is alarmed. He doesn’t long for to do that; not at all, but he’s told if he doesn’t he may be grant go.
Thus, the highest of highs and the lowest of lows hit our MC pretty much simultaneously. His back is to the wall and he is struggling to form a decision. What is he going to do?
