Shadow Life follows Kumiko, a 76-year-old lady who has rejected the assisted living home her daughters wanted to send her to, venturing off to find her own apartment and make her own way. She doesn’t tell her daughters where she is (despite one’s persistent pestering) and is determined to make it clear than she is capableRead More
A Sapphic, Witchy YA Rom-Com: Charmed and Dangerous by Shelley Page
Charmed and Dangerous by Shelley Page is a teen rom-com that I’ll admit I picked up mostly because I was instantly charmed by the cover. My library got a copy of it, and after DNFing a couple of books and slogging through a third, I really needed something light that I knew would be fun andRead More
A Swoon-Worthy Sapphic Fairytale For The Ages: Forgive Me Not by Mari Costa
As much as I love dark and complex sapphic fantasy and science fiction stories that push the boundaries of the genre and challenge me to consider all the possibilities, I also love a sweet fairytale. Forgive Me Not, the latest YA graphic novel from artist and writer Mari Costa, is one such fairytale. I lovedRead More
A Disappointing Dreamy Fantasy: The Secret World of Briar Rose by Cindy Pham Review
The Secret World of Briar Rose by Cindy Pham (June 2, 2026) follows Corin, a thief searching for her missing sister, and Amelia, a princess who’s been asleep for 100 years.

Sapphics and the Sea
As a lesbian who has always been fascinated by the deep sea (so much so, I have a Goodreads shelf titled ‘weird ocean stuff’), it is particularly pleasing to me to see so many releases merging the two. I recently read and reviewed The Jellyfish Problem by Tessa Yang for the Lesbrary, and it gotRead More
Two Worlds Collide: Coffeeshop in an Alternate Universe by CB Lee
CB Lee’s Coffeeshop in an Alternate Universe, as the title suggests, takes place in two worlds, both very different yet full of similarities. In one, overachiever Brenda has developed a 19-step plan to use science to save the world from climate change. In the other, Chosen One Kat just wants to forget about the prophecy thatRead More
The Queer Historical Broom-Racing Comic You Didn’t Know You Needed: Brooms by Jasmine Walls, illustrated by Teo Duvall
I got the recommendation for Brooms, written by Jasimine Walls and illustrated by Teo Duvall, off of a random list of graphic novels to buy your teens for Christmas, and I couldn’t believe that it’s been out since 2023 and I hadn’t heard of it! It’s so exactly up my alley. Now, I am bringing it to yourRead More
Love Across the Ages: The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri Review
The Isle in the Silver Sea is my second Tasha Suri novel. I read The Jasmine Throne in 2024 and found myself impressed with the world building. Whilst its sequel still sits on my ever-growing TBR pile, I knew I couldn’t pass up the chance to read this new release when I saw it advertised—partially because lady knights!Read More
Love Across Lifetimes: The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri Review
On the Lesbrary’s list of favorite 2025 releases, I named The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri as both my most anticipated 2025 release and my favorite sapphic read of the year. As said in that post, the author’s clear yet lyrical writing delivers an aching star-crossed romance, a high-stakes adventure, and ever-relevant anti-colonial commentary. InRead More
Wrangling Chaos and Grief: Lessons in Magic and Disaster by Charlie Jane Anders Review
Recently, I was complaining to my sister about one of my pet peeves in fiction: stories featuring an academic or student that is vague about that character’s area of interest or research. Get specific about it! Include some nerdy tangents! Don’t just have a character vaguely be described as an art historian or a classicistRead More
