February is LGBT History Month, and there are so many brilliant books out there that we cannot wait to celebrate.

One of our favourite recent YA stories is Annabel Pitcher's brilliant The Last Days of Archie Maxwell, which is perfect reading this month.

The tale follows Archie, a teenager who discovers that his parents are splitting up... and then finds out that his dad is gay.

But why listen to us when you can hear Annabel herself talking about the book?
