Fantasy was the genre that got me to love books, but I fell out of love with it as I couldn’t find any books with characters that weren’t straight or cisgender. I was browsing through recent LGBT releases and found The Queen of Ieflaria by Effie Calvin, which has turned out to be everything I was lookingRead More
Cara reviews Under the Lights by Dahlia Adler
Under the Lights is a great light lesbian romance that’s about growing up and finding friends in unlikely places. There’s no deep trauma or life-or-death stakes here, and while there’s some light angst and the characters have real problems, the narrative never dwells on them too long or loses sight of the truth that the charactersRead More

Tierney reviews My Lady Lipstick by Karin Kallmaker

When Paris’s publishers decideRead More
Danika reviews Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant
I found Into the Drowning Deep because I was looking for deep sea fiction. I’ve had an interest in the deep ocean since I was a kid, and I was craving a book to satisfy that itch. Throw in some killer mermaids, and how I could resist giving this one a go? It wasn’t until after IRead More
Shira Glassman reviews “More than Anything” by Eden French (Queerly Loving Volume 2)
I’d like to recommend the YA dystopian short story “More than Anything” by Eden French, which kicks off Queer Pack’s Queerly Loving vol. 2. There are other stories about bi and lesbian women in the issue, but I’m not finished reading it yet and I didn’t want to wait til I finished the book before tellingRead More

Megan Casey reviews The Ultimate Exit Strategy by Nikki Baker
Hmm. This book was published by Bella Books in 2001, which would have made it one of their first publications. This means that for some reason Baker bailed on Naiad, who had published the first three books in this series. Naiad was subsumed by Bella two years later. The copy I read for this reviewRead More
Whitney D.R. reviews Royally Yours by Everly James
I haven’t read much, if any, “secret royalty” romance. I happened upon Royally Yours via social media and fell in love with the cover. And I was even more pleasantly surprised that the black woman on the cover was the princess. I was eager to dive into this story. Royally Yours is a good, cheesyRead More
Danika reviews Girls Made of Snow and Glass by Melissa Bashardoust
This is a fairy tale about misogyny. About the men who pit women against each other, and force them into limited roles. And the relationships that form between these women regardless. The love that they share even when told they should they should hate each other. The revolutionary power of love and forgiveness to breakRead More
