Queer Women Books New In April!

April 19, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Megan Casey reviews The Ghost Network by Catie Disabato

April 19, 2017 by Danika Ellis

This novel reminds me of everything, so forgive me if I drop more names in a short period of time that maybe I should. The plot is a simple one: a world-famous pop star who calls herself Molly Metropolis vanishes in the middle of her tour. An obsessed journalist and fan, Caitlin Taer, is determinedRead More

Julie Thompson reviews The Dark Wife audiobook by Sarah Diemer, narrated by Veronica Giguere

April 18, 2017 by Danika Ellis

BEFORE. I am not my mother’s daughter. I have forfeited my inheritance, my birthright. I do not possess the privilege of truth. The stories told by fires, the myth of my kidnap and my rape, are all that remain of me. Forever I will be known as the girl who was stolen away to beRead More

Danika reviews Star-Crossed by Barbara Dee

April 17, 2017 by Danika Ellis

This has been a much-anticipated read for me! Back in 2016, I saw a tumblr post by Barbara Dee’s daughter talking about the upcoming release of her mom’s book, Star-Crossed: a middle-grade book with a bisexual girl as the main character. The first middle-grade novel with a girl who likes girls as the main character! AndRead More

Shira Glassman reviews Mistress Moderately Fair by Katherine Sturtevant

April 15, 2017 by Danika Ellis

The English Restoration, i.e. when Charles Stuart II returned to England to take his father’s throne back from the Puritans, fascinates me for being a renaissance of both art and hedonism. Theaters opened again after being banned, and all kinds of sexual openness flourished. I purposely sought out queer lit set in this time period–notRead More

Maddison reviews Bingo Barge Murder by Jessie Chandler

April 13, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I have a major soft-spot for cozy mysteries and am always on the lookout for one featuring a lesbian protagonist. So imagine my joy when I discovered The Shay O’Hanlon Capers by Jessie Chandler. Even better than a finding a single cozy mystery with a lesbian protagonist, I had managed to stumble across a wholeRead More

Susan reviews In The Name of The Father by Gerri Hill

April 12, 2017 by Danika Ellis

In The Name of The Father by Gerri Hill is the sequel to her 2007 novel Hunter’s Way (which I reviewed here at the Lesbrary!), with Hunter’s newest case being investing the murder of a Catholic priest, complicated by publicity issues, homophobia, outside interference, and the attempts to bury any suggestion that the victim mayRead More

Kelley O’Brien reviews Camp Rewind by Meghan O’Brien

April 5, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I’ve been excited to read Meghan O’Brien’s Camp Rewind since I first read the synopsis last year. A book about two women of color dealing with very real and contemporary problems like social anxiety and online harassment and misogyny? Sign me right up! Despite my excitement for the book, it somehow got pushed back dueRead More

April 1, 2017 by Danika Ellis

You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver Jessie is a ballet dancer who pours her life into controllingRead More
