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
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
Anna Marie reviews Girls, Visions & Everything and The Gentrification of the Mind
Over the summer I set myself the challenge of reading one Sarah Schulman book per month – my interest had been sparked because my queer platonic partner had written her dissertation on one of Schulman’s novels Girls, Visions & Everything and the dissertation was really great! I ended up reading 4, one each month of summer withRead More

Whitney D.R. reviews Princess Princess Ever After by Katie O’Neill
Princess Princess Ever After is a cute middle-grade story about two princesses who evade their royal duties, but find something greater along the way. I have to admit, I was nervous to read this based on the cover. I’m always leary when one of the main characters is of color and masculine-presenting (Amira), while theRead More
Quinn Jean reviews The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza by Shaun David Hutchinson
[Please note: this novel contains occasional depictions of violence and this review mentions these in the first and final paragraphs] Like its eponymous heroine, The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza defies categorisation. Hutchinson’s novel never doubts the reader’s intelligence and jumps right into the centre of events at the start. Elena Mendoza is introduced as aRead More
Megan G reviews Unicorn Tracks by Julia Ember
Located deep in the heart of Nazwimbe is a safari unlike any other.

The Harving’s, a father-daughter team hailing from Echalend, have come specifically in search of the mystical white unicorn, aRead More
Megan Casey reviews Cyanide Wells by Marcia Muller
This book is interesting not so much for the mystery, which is a bit less than so-so, but for the fact that it was penned by Muller, who, along with P.D. James, Sue Grafton, and Sara Paretsky, are often considered the first modern women detective novelists. James’ An Unsuitable Job for a Woman (1972) was the first—andRead More
