Link Round Up: October 19

Did you know there are more than a hundred lesbian vampire books? We basically invented the genre. But that’s not where the queer women horror books end. In fact, there are dozens of queer women horror books, zombie books, werewolf books, and even ghost stories. Here are just a few of my favourites, for when you want to curl up with a creepy sapphic story.

I posted Lesbian & Queer Women Halloween Reads at Book Riot!

Autostraddle posted Hidden Gems of Queer Lit: “The Gilda Stories” and Queer Black Vampire Myth and “Carol” Is Even Better Than You’ve Heard, Is Maybe The Best Lesbian Movie Ever Made.

Lambda Literary posted Editor and Writer Helen Eisenbach on Working in LGBT Publishing in the Early 1980s.

Queer Romance Month posted, among many others

“7 Lady loving must-read novels that will make your gay heart smile” was posted at The Feminism Project.

QDA: A Queer Disability Anthology edited by Raymond Luczak was reviewed at Lambda Literary.

Minotaur by J.A. Rock was reviewed at QUEERcentric Books.

Honor Girl by Maggie Thrash was reviewed at The Pirate Tree.

Affinity by Sarah Waters was reviewed at bookarahma.
