Note: This review contains spoilers. I don’t think they are major spoilers, but integral to discussing the identity politics (or lack there of) in the book. If you liked Just Jorie by Robin Alexander, you will probably also like this book. In my opinion, Just Jorie is a romantic comedy and this is a contemporaryRead More

Marthese reviews All Eyes On Us by Kit Frick
“I don’t want her to grow up with only the voices of the Fellowship and our parents in her ears… most of all, I don’t want her to grow up to be afraid of me” All Eyes On Us by Kit Frick promised to be a mix between Pretty Little Liars and People Like Us.Read More
Mallory Lass reviews Floodtide by Heather Rose Jones
When I heard another book in Jones’ Alpennia Series was to come out this year, I was both excited and sad because I knew I would read it in a day or two and then the window into Alpennia would be closed again until the next in her series was released. I never dreamed IRead More
Susan reviews Heathen Volumes 1 & 2 by Natasha Alterici and Rachel Deering
Natasha Alterici and Rachel Deering’s Heathen follows Aydis, a lesbian Viking maiden trying to smash the patriarchy through the medium of rescuing a Valkyrie from a curse. In theory this is exactly my thing! In practice, I’m conflicted. The art style feels rough and scribbly, which works perfectly for the narrative and gives it aRead More
Alice Pate reviews Choices by Tessa Vidal
Choices is fairly true to the stereotypes of its genre. As an erotic romance, its sex scenes are plentiful, overdramatic, and unrealistic. Unfortunately, it seems that these criticisms can be extended to the entire story. Choices is a love story between the movie star, Caro Ballad and the celebrity dog trainer, Shell Tate. Both womenRead More
Emily Joy reviews Women in the Shadows by Ann Bannon
I’ve steadily been making way through the Beebo Brinker Chronicles, a classic lesbian pulp series by Ann Bannon, for quite some time. Women in the Shadows is the third book in that series and by far the most difficult to read so far. This review, by nature of being for the third book in aRead More
Bee reviews The Tiger Flu by Larissa Lai
Spoiler Warning Trigger warnings: character death, violence, body horror, gore I should say upfront that I don’t read much sci-fi. It’s definitely not my genre of choice, so I am unfamiliar with the conventions and the tropes, and the general methods of worldbuilding. The only reason I picked up The Tiger Flu by Larissa LaiRead More
Mary reviews Gingerbread Hearts by Judy Underwood
Up until recently I’ve avoided short stories. I wanted a nice, full novel to sink my teeth into and take my time with. But now I have a full-time job with a long commute and reading full novels becomes a bit more challenging. So with that, now I love short stories, which brings me toRead More
Sheila Laroque reviews Maiden, Mother Crone: Fantastical Trans Femmes by Gwen Benaway
I became aware of Gwen Benaway this fall on twitter (@GwenBenaway) with the controversy that was happening in Toronto with the public library and a hateful speaker. More of Gwen’s writing on her experiences of these events can be found here. Also, this fall she won the Governor General’s Literary Award for Poetry for herRead More
