TheArabObserver is from Jordan.
Indeed the Arab Observer is from Jordan; the book reviewed is a newly released book published by a Lebanese LGBTQ support group presenting stories specific to Lebanese lesbian, queer and questioning women.
Yeah read his review, pretty good. My mistake kinda got lost when you say Lebanon, whether you mean the content is about Lebanon or a Lebanese blogger wrote them :)
