If I Loved You Less by Tamsen Parker
Lesbrary Reviews

Alexa reviews If I Loved You Less by Tamsen Parker

October 14, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Theo Sullivan lives on an island like paradise with her slightly overprotective father, content with how things are. The community in Hanalei is tight-knit: everyone knows everyone, outsiders rarely stay for long, and nothing can really remain a secret. Personally, the island setting and its descriptions were my favourite part of the novel, as wellRead More

Marthese reviews The Fletcher by K. Aten

October 12, 2018 by Danika Ellis

‘’I have lived my life by the lead and the arrow and I respect the trees and the animals they shelter’’ I’ve been meaning to start another fantasy series and it seems like The Arrow of Artemis is going to be it. Set in a fantasy classical (Greek) world, this series follows Kyri on her journey asRead More

Lesbrary Reviews

Mallory Lass reviews Broken Trails by D. Jordan Redhawk

October 11, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Trigger Warnings: Suicide of a minor character (occurs in the past and is recounted), and alcoholism. Spoilers marked separately at the end. A gripping adventure romance, set in “Big Sky Country” Alaska at the famous Iditarod dog sledding race, features a swoon worthy protagonist and a driven but out of control (at times) love interest.Read More

Lesbrary Reviews

Susan reviews The Price of Meat by KJ Charles

October 10, 2018 by Danika Ellis

KJ Charles’s The Price of Meat is a queer horror pastiche of penny dreadfuls, with several nods to Sweeney Todd. Johanna Oakley forces a devil’s bargain with a detective; she will spy on Sawney Reynard, a potentially murderous barber, in exchange for her lover, Arabella, being released from the asylum she’s trapped in. If you pickRead More

When Lesbian Fiction, Politics, and Life Intersect (Plus Giveaway!)

October 10, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Guest post by lesbian romance author Lucy J. Madison Lately, I’ve been thinking entirely too much about male, white, patriarchy. I have to admit, back in college, I probably dozed off whenever this topic came up in class. It never really mattered to me because when I was much younger and wrapped up more fullyRead More

Mars reviews Ascension: A Tangled Axon Novel by Jaqueline Koyanagi

October 4, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Please be aware that although I’ve tried to keep it minimal, this review contains spoilers. Alana Quick is one of the best starship surgeons the non-gentrified City of Heliodor has to offer, or she would be if only someone gave her the chance to prove herself on a real starship. Unhappily trapped in the dustyRead More

Mary Springer reviews Stunted by Breanna Hughes

October 2, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Jessie takes her job as a stuntwoman very seriously and will allow for nothing to distract, not even the stunningly magnetic Elliot Chase. But as the two are forced to work closely together on a new film, Jessie finds it’s impossible to resist. Elliot has always avoided relationships, but Jessie makes her reconsider everything sheRead More

Shira Glassman reviews “The Dresser and the Chambermaid” by Robin Talley

October 1, 2018 by Danika Ellis

I’ve been really lucky in my reading material these past few years. The blossoming of affordable queer lit on the indie book scene as eBooks and social media marketing transform how we find each other has validated my adolescent needs in the best of ways. However, once you’re finally fed, and your needs met, that’sRead More

Alice Lawrence reviews Sunshine Girl by Marissa Dahlson

September 29, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Marissa Dahlson has opened her heart to the reader with gentleness and honesty to create a lovely collection of poems that leave you feeling you’ve gotten to know this stranger so well you’d recognise her if you passed her in the street. While you may not know her face,  you know her scars, fears, hopes, and theRead More
