Marthese Recommends: Kickass Comics for This Valentine’s!

February 9, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Not everyone likes Valentine ’s Day: some feel lonely, some have too much work, some don’t like the crowds, some just don’t like the capitalistic commercialisation of romance while others just don’t like the mushy stuff in such quantities. It’s okay! We can all unite by reading something kickass while letting the romantics have theirRead More

Rebecca reviews Dreams Unspoken by R.J. Layer

January 27, 2018 by Danika Ellis

R.J. Layer’s Dreams Unspoken is an okay read with a dull and dragging plot and the slowest burning romance ever. The book features two very different protagonists. We have rugged lesbian cowgirl Jo Marchal who has moved back home to be near to her dying father. Her parents do not accept her sexuality and after years ofRead More

Shira Glassman reviews That Could Be Enough by Alyssa Cole

January 20, 2018 by Danika Ellis

That Could Be Enough, the lesbian offering in the early American romance collection Hamilton’s Battalion, is everything a gentle historical f/f romance should be. Both characters, Mercy the servant/secretary and Andromeda the dressmaker, are fully fleshed out even within the novella’s small scope — it feels fully complete and I truly felt like I watchedRead More

Megan Casey reviews Swamp Girl by Iza Moreau 

January 17, 2018 by Danika Ellis

There was a recent article in The Washington Post about young adult novels written from the queer perspective. The gist of the article was that these novels “have begun to feel mainstream.” I’m sure that this is true to some extent; that a queer point of view is becoming increasingly more accepted by today’s readers,Read More
