Sarah reviews Intersection by Nancy Ann Healy

January 13, 2018 by Danika Ellis

  Intersection is a romance/thriller featuring an FBI agent and a politician’s ex-wife. Although I wanted to fall in love with the book—the first in a series—it fell short for me in a number of different ways, and I don’t see myself picking up the sequels. The novel kicks off with Agent Alex Toles andRead More

Marthese reviews The You I’ve Never Known by Ellen Hopkins

January 12, 2018 by Danika Ellis

”Is there such a thing as promiscuous love, or dies it only apply to sex?” The You I’ve Never Known by Ellen Hopkins is a 500+ page book, written almost entirely in poetry form. It was such an intense read! It leaves an impression; I couldn’t help not think about it when I was not reading it.Read More

Susan reviews Fearless by Shira Glassman

January 10, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Fearless by Shira Glassman is a short and sweet romance about a newly-out divorced woman, her crush on a music teacher at her daughter’s school, and falling back in love with music. I quite liked this one! The story takes place over two days of rehearsals for a high-school music event, where Lana’s daughter isRead More

Julie Thompson reviews Don’t Date a Writer by Maj al-Yasa

January 9, 2018 by Danika Ellis

Inspired by a summer spent swirling between Germany, Spain, and Iowa City, Iowa, poet Maj al-Yasa explores the vagaries of love. This poetry collection is organized as a journey in four parts: Unrequited Love (I don’t understand); Requited Love (why you loved me once); Loss (and then let me go.); Vices (Asshole). Or, read moreRead More

December Link Round Up

January 3, 2018 by Danika Ellis

December was a hectic month in my offline life (working retail in December is no joke!), so I let myself take a bit of a vacation online. That means I have a whole month of links to catch up on! Luckily, it was a little quieter on the rest of the internet, too. Here areRead More

Thanks To Our Sponsors!

January 1, 2018 by Danika Ellis

You might have noticed that the Lesbrary now has a few ads! I’ve always been firm in not wanting to put randomly generated ads on the site that would be irrelevant at best and offensive at worst (no diet products on this site, thank you!) Recently, however, I’ve been reaching out to publishers and authorsRead More

Danika reviews The Little Homo Sapiens Scientist by S.L. Huang

January 1, 2018 by Danika Ellis

This is a fascinating novella. It’s a dark, reversed retelling of “The Little Mermaid,” from the point of view of a human scientist who acts in an anthropological capacity studying the atargati (definitely not “mermaids”). If “dark queer retelling of ‘The Little Mermaid’” didn’t already hook you, I don’t really know what else to say.Read More

Danika reviews Lumberjanes series (Vol 1-6) by Noelle Stevenson, Grace Ellis, Shannon Watters, and Brooke A. Allen

December 31, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Lumberjanes is a series that’s been on my TBR for ages. I had read the first volume, and I’ve been recommending the series, but I’ve been saving the other volumes for some unknown reason. I’ve finally corrected that error and binge read volumes 1-6! (I’m still on hold at the library for volume 7.) You’veRead More

Danika reviews Knit One, Girl Two by Shira Glassman

December 28, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I feel a little bit silly reviewing Knit One, Girl Two, because what can I say that hasn’t been said before? Especially considering that this is a novella! So consider this less of a review, and more of a reminder that this sweet little novella exists (and that you can get it for about $2!) ThisRead More

Tierney reviews Heartsick by Tracey Richardson

December 27, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Paramedic Angie Cullen and doctor Vic Turner work at the same hospital, but hardly know one another – until Angie’s lover and Vic’s wife are brought to the hospital together after a car crash, and it comes to light that they have been cheating with each other.
