Because this is the Lesbrary, I’ll start by saying that this is a f/m romance with a bi+ main character (and love interest). I picked this up firstly because I really enjoyed Dugan’s previous queer YA title, Hot Dog Girl. I was also interested in the premise: two teenagers whose parents own competing comic book shopsRead More
Maggie reviews Unconquerable Sun by Kate Elliott
When the author described Unconquerable Sun during a livestream as Alexander the Great but gender-swapped and in space, I instantly ordered a copy. Not only could I feel good about supporting an author and an independent bookstore, but a complicated queer space opera sounded like a perfect book to unplug with in an attempt to provideRead More
Arina reviews Ascension by Jacqueline Koyanagi
Reading Jacqueline Koyanagi’s Ascension has been long overdue for me. This sapphic Sci-Fi with a metaphysical twist is the type of read you don’t often find in the genre. It centers on Alana, an engineer specializing in spaceship repair. She has a special connection with energy and metal, an inexplicable bond that drives her devotion.Read More
The 9 Books of Sappho and Other Queer Lit Lost in the Fire
There’s a famous photograph of a Nazi book burning. A mound of books are spread in the street, some smoldering, some still aflame. Surrounding it are people raising the Nazi salute. It’s an eerie image. I’m sure I was shown it in school. It’s an example of the censorship and the violent intolerance of NaziRead More

Body Music is a graphic novel translated from French, written and drawn by nonbinary lesbian artist Julie Maroh, best known for their book Blue is the Warmest Color.

Rachel Friars reviews Cinderella is Dead by Kalynn Bayron
Kalynn Bayron’s Cinderella is Dead is the queer fairy-tale retelling we needed in 2020. Bayron’s novel is doing amazing things for queer fiction, fantasy, and YA. If there’s anything we need more of, it’s books like this, and more from Bayron herself. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen a Cinderella with queer girls.Read More
Sera reviews The Care and Feeding of Waspish Widows by Olivia Waites
When I first read The Lady’s Guide to Celestial Mechanics, I remembered being enchanted by the writing, the world building, and the gorgeous, tender romance at the heart of the story. It was one of the smartest historical romances I’d read in a long while, and it fed both my heart and my brain. InRead More
Danika reviews Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo
Papi was a man split in two, playing a game against himself. But the problem with that is that in order to win, you also always lose. Yahaira and Camino are half-sisters, but they don’t know it. Yahaira lives in New York City with her mother and father, though he goes to the Dominican RepublicRead More
