Danika reviews All Good Children by Dayna Ingram

May 1, 2016 by Danika Ellis

This book is a trip. All Good Children is set in a post-apocalyptic world where The Over–huge, mythological bird creatures–have conquered the human race. Life goes on almost as usual, except that a good percentage of children are taken by the The Over for food and reproduction. Some are selected at birth, while others are taken in theirRead More

Kalyanii reviews Turtle Season by Miriam Ruth Black

April 25, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Suffice it to say, our personal growth does not take place within a vacuum. Our circumstances and those with whom we interact are often the catalysts for the reconfiguring of our beliefs and perceptions. So it is for Anna Simon, the protagonist within Miriam Ruth Black’s debut novel, Turtle Season. Blindsided by her husband’s death,Read More

Megan Casey reviews Winged Dancer by Camarin Grae

April 13, 2016 by Danika Ellis

When Camarin Grae wrote the majority of her novels, there was no Amazon, no Goodreads, no peer reviews. The only way for a book to be reviewed was for the publisher to send galleys to periodicals months in advance of publication and hope for the best. Reviews for any work of lesbian literature were notRead More

Julie Thompson reviews Confucius Jane by Kate Lynch

April 12, 2016 by Danika Ellis

Warning: This novel may induce drooling! Produces a Pavlovian response to descriptions of Chinese cuisine. A platter of deliciousness is advised to have on hand while reading. Confucius Jane is a wonderful treat. After the emotionally heavy drama-rama of The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones, it was nice to slip into a world that’sRead More

Danika review When Fox Is a Thousand by Larissa Lai

April 10, 2016 by Danika Ellis

First things first, don’t read the back cover of When Fox Is a Thousand. At least not on the 2004 reprint by Arsenal Pulp Press. The plot points it describes don’t come into play until near the end of the book. This is a slow burn of a read. It’s beautifully done: it’s told through threeRead More
