Marthese reviews We Awaken by Calista Lynne

March 23, 2017 by Danika Ellis

  “I went on a date in a dream with a mildly mythical figure who couldn’t possibly exist. And we were swing dancing” We Awaken is a Fantasy Young Adult short novel about Victoria and Ashlinn. What drew me to this book was the fact that it was a fantasy young adult book about anRead More

Danika reviews Queens of Geek by Jen Wilde

March 21, 2017 by Danika Ellis

This. Was. Adorable. I was between rating this 4 stars or 5, but I couldn’t think of anything that I would change about it to improve it, so I guess that makes it an automatic 5 stars! Queens of Geek follows two point of view characters, Charlie and Taylor, as well as their friend Jamie.Read More

Whitney D.R. reviews Fetch by B.L. Wilson

March 20, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I wanted to read Fetch for two reasons: Black lesbians and my most beloved enemies-to-lovers romance trope. I don’t know what it is about two people who initially can’t stand each other realizing they’re in love (despite their better judgement), but it really turns my crank. Fetch also contains another of my favorite tropes and that’s oppositesRead More

Danika reviews The ABC’s of LGBT+ by Ash Hardell

March 19, 2017 by Danika Ellis

Note: This was published under the name “Ashley Mardell,” but the author has since changed their name to “Ash Hardell,” so that’s what I’m using here. What a useful, thoughtfully considered book. The ABC’s of LGBT+ is an introduction to a long list of LGBTQIA+ identifiers and terminology. This covers a huge range of labels. IRead More

Shira Glassman reviews Flowers of Luna by Jennifer Linsky

March 18, 2017 by Danika Ellis

My recs pitch for this book is: fashion college on the moon, with femme on femme Asian diaspora lesbian romance. Yes, I said on the moon. Flowers of Luna, by biracial Japanese-American author Jennifer Linsky, has a very familiar structure and feel if you’ve been reading a lot of young adult and new adult contemporary f/f. Ran hasRead More

Queer: A Graphic History by Meg-John Barker, illustrated by Julia Scheele

March 17, 2017 by Danika Ellis

When I picked up Queer: A Graphic History, I was expecting a pretty short, easy read. Queer history! In a graphic format! I was surprised, then, to realize that this is not just queer history as in LGBTQ history, but queer as in queer theory, which is a whole different ball game. I took queer theory inRead More

Megan Casey reviews Black By Gaslight by Nene Adams

March 15, 2017 by Danika Ellis

There’s a lot to say about this novel—both good and bad. It starts out like a house on fire but finishes in smoldering ruins. Here are some of the good things. First, there is the setting: 1888 London, smoggy, dark, and smelly. Lady Evangeline (Lina, or “the dark-haired lady”) St. Claire is an independently wealthyRead More
