13 Aquila: #3 is an award, so you are searching in Common Knowledge

34 Charon07: #3 was tough for me. I tried googling and could only find a much-better-known prize. In desperation, I looked in the Common Knowledge of all the LGBTQ SF books I could think of. Finally, when I looked at the awards won by The Left Hand of Darkness, and followed the link to the award page, I found it.

107 Taliesien: Accidental Creatures by Anne Harris won this award. Look at the CK for the award name and click on it. If you don't get the "You found a rainbow!" on the page don't be surprised. I only got it on about half of the correct pages but if you go back to the hunt page and hit refresh the count updates for finding it.

109 lorax: For #3 I tried all possible permutations of a better-known SF award before landing on this one

Try looking at the Awards and Honors section for SF books that you think might be a good match. Several are suggested in this thread.

110 AnnieMod: The key is positive LGBT depiction. Only one award styles its decisions this way.

113 Taliesien: ?? The rainbow doesn't show up on the award page I directed you to? Again, go to https://www.librarything.com/work/329746/commonknowledge and click on the (only) Award listed to bring up the book award page to get the rainbow.
