Megan Casey reviews Only Lawyers Dancing by Jan McKemmish

November 15, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I’ve had to create a new shelf for this one called Lesbian Crime Fiction. There is a lot of crime in this book, and a couple of lesbians, but nobody actually solves a mystery or a puzzle. At least, I don’t think they do. The fact is that Only Lawyers Dancing is so literary that it’s oftenRead More

Julie Thompson reviews Sugar Town (issues 1-4) by Hazel Newlevant

November 14, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Sugar and spice and everything nice is what adorable graphic novels featuring queer women are made of.

There’s no angst, no heart-stricken-dark-night-of-the-soul about loving more thanRead More

Danika reviews Biketopia edited by Elly Blue

November 13, 2017 by Danika Ellis

A smart person once told me that the key to having a good life in the face of world’s uncertainty is to find something that is meaningful for you and go all-in for it. For me, that’s the real appeal of both bicycles and science fiction–no matter how grim the world looks, each other canRead More
