Danika reviews Queer By Choice: Lesbians, Gay Men, and The Politics of Identity by Vera Whisman
One of my favourite books is Dear John, I Love Jane: Women Write About Leaving Men for Women edited by Candace Walsh and Laura André. There are some beautifully-written essays in the collection, but what really grabbed me were all the narratives that didn’t match the classic queer storyline: I knew since I was a kid,Read More

Megan Casey reviews Mrs. Porter’s Letter by Vicki P. McConnell

It was followed over the next several decades by hundreds of other novels featuring lesbian sleuths. Yet the novel’s influence seems small in comparison to some of f theRead More
Julie Thompson reviews Love in Action by Augusta Hill
I discovered this bundle by happenstance on Twitter, one of the things I enjoy about using it. The Indiana Jones-esque font on the cover drew me in like a moth to flame. As I sat in my airline seat bound for abbreviated adventure in the unknowns of Iowa, I dove straight into the stories. LoveRead More
