The Well cover
Lesbrary Reviews

Wishes and Curses: The Well by Jake Wyatt and Choo

July 5, 2025 by Anna N.

Written by Jake Wyatt and illustrated by the mononymous Choo, The Well is a 2022 graphic novel that takes the emotional and narrative beats of a Grimm fairytale and frames them in an East Asian inspired low fantasy setting. With a main plot built on allegory and archetypes that is grounded by a delightful romantic B-plot, theRead More

A World-Bending Mystery of Impossible Choices: The Last Hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso Review

July 4, 2025 by Amanda Růžičková

This book came to me as a metaphorically dog-eared suggestion from my friend Eliot, and I’m so glad they suggested it; it’s just the sort of book I love. In The Last Hour Between Worlds, the latest release from Melissa Caruso, the author builds up catastrophes like a clockmaker who’s bent on breaking time. SheRead More

Annie Mare Talks Cosmic Love At The Multiverse Hair Salon and the Infinity of Queer Love

July 2, 2025 by Susanne Salehi

Cosmic Love at the Multiverse Hair Salon is a gorgeous “multiverse novel about two women who fall in love despite living in worlds that are five months apart, as they try to find a timeline that doesn’t end in disaster” by Annie Mare (she/they). It’s every bit as messy and joyous as it sounds, and IRead More

Toxic Lesbian Vampires: Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab Review

June 30, 2025 by Danika Ellis

This was my first V.E. Schwab book, and I picked it up solely because she described it as “toxic lesbian vampires.” Luckily, it lived up to that promise, and it’s a welcome addition to my collection of favourite sapphic vampire novels. I appreciate a vampire novel that really digs into what it would feel likeRead More

The Flying Ship cover

June 26, 2025 by Til

The Flying Ship is a graphic novel filled with magic and adventure. It’s the story of Dobrinia, a grumpy girl with a prosthetic leg and no time for friendship, who gives an old wanderer half a pastry—all she has left.

Power, Politics, and Passion: Black Salt Queen by Samantha Bansil Review

June 13, 2025 by Briana Wilvert

Black Salt Queen had everything I want out of a fantasy novel right now. It’s a story steeped in political intrigue, lush world-building, and dynamic characters who feel as real as they are formidable. At the center of the story, we’ve got Hara Duja Gatdula, the aging queen of Maynara who can literally move theRead More

Faeries, Dragons, and Space Monsters, Oh My: Three Sapphic SFF Novellas

May 28, 2025 by Emory Rose

I first want to give a shout-out to the Asian Readathon, which Cindy Pham (@WithCindy on Youtube) hosts during May. While we’re near the end of the month, the associated Directory of Asian Books is an incredible resource year-round, and both it and this year’s challenge contain an LGBT category. With that in mind, I’veRead More

All Damsels, Hold the Distress: Witches, Princesses, and Women at Arms edited by Sacchi Green Review

May 26, 2025 by Emilia Ferrante

This was a fun, steamy romp with a side of sexy subversion. It was an anthology I didn’t know existed until I came across it on my Libby one day and absolutely had to read it. (Shameless plug for the Queer Liberation Library—you can sign up for a card for free if you have anRead More

A Fresh Take on Magic Schools: The Incandescent by Emily Tesh

May 23, 2025 by Rachel Friars

In what has quickly become one of my top novels of the year, Emily Tesh crafts a unique fantasy world full of violence, intensity, and intrigue in The Incandescent (Tor 2025).  In Tesh’s newest novel, which has been compared to fiction by Naomi Novik and Emily Danforth, Doctor Walden is the Director of Magic at Chetwood Academy—a schoolRead More

Where Shadows Bloom by Catherine Bakewell describes itself thus: A mesmerizing daydream with a subtle edge of darkness that will leave you utterly unable to put it down, Where Shadows Bloom pits terrifying monsters, chilling secrets, capricious gods, immortal kings, and death itself against the unstoppable love between two girls. Sadly, I found this set my expectations tooRead More
