An F/F Love Letter to Bioshock: This Gilded Abyss by Rebecca Thorne Review

September 2, 2026 by Susan

This Gilded Abyss is Rebecca Thorne’s F/F lovers-to-enemies(-to-lovers) letter to Bioshock—this isn’t me being snarky, the dedication is “For everyone who fought for their lives in Rapture.” In this case, the Rapture analogue is Fall, a domed city at the bottom of the ocean, only reachable by the immense submersible Luminosity at the end ofRead More

A Sapphic Trans Mixtape of a Novel: Any Other City by Hazel Jane Plante

August 30, 2026 by Kim B.

When I think of books I’ve read that stick out to me, Any Other City sits at the top of the list. You might know the author Hazel Jane Plante from her work Little Blue Encyclopaedia (For Vivian) which I’ve often seen recommended for its unique premise of being told in an A-Z list of moments from the mainRead More

A Cozy Queer Mystery in Space: Nobody’s Baby by Olivia Waite Review

August 26, 2026 by Emory Rose

Considering my positive reviews of Olivia Waite’s historical romances and Malka Older’s sci-fi mystery novellas, it should be no surprise that I am enjoying Olivia Waite’s own sci-fi mystery novellas, the Dorothy Gentleman series. The second entry, Nobody’s Baby, cements this as a series of cozy mysteries exploring what it means to hold onto our memoriesRead More

Missing The Devil Wears Prada?: Not Today, Satan by T.B. Markinson and Miranda MacLeod

August 19, 2026 by Allie Greene

Writing duo T.B. Markinson and Miranda MacLeod of I Heart SapphFic have written a Devil Wears Prada-esque story where the leading ladies actually get together called Not Today, Satan. Perpetual fuck up and hothead Harley Plotkin does what she does best: loses her temper, sets fire to the ice queen’s work (literally), and causes her friend (an expectant father) to lose his job and insurance.

An Accomplished and Messy Coming-of-Age: Indestructible Object by Mary McCoy Review

August 15, 2026 by Rose R.

I never know what I’m going to get next from Mary McCoy, which is one of the things that keeps drawing me back to her work. From her pen I’ve read a retelling of cutthroat ancient Roman politics set in the world of high school student councils (I, Claudia), a quirky, genre-bending summer camp adventureRead More
