Nicole reviews Amara’s Daughter by E H Howard
For my first book review for the Lesbrary, I decided to go with a fantasy novel called Amara’s Daughter by EH Howard. I have a soft spot for fantasy, especially the kind of female-warrior-turned-hero that Tamora Pierce captivated me with as a child. How great it would be, I thought, to read a lesbian strongRead More
Lena reviews “Prairie Women in Love” and “Dames with Dames” by Rachel Windsor
Both “Prairie Women in Love” and “Dames with Dames,” by Rachel Windsor, are part of a series about lesbians through the ages. “Written by lesbians for lesbians,” the tagline proudly proclaims. In that sense, these two little pieces do not disappoint. They are both short, easy to read on a lunch break andRead More
Jess reviews Fire and Ice by Gaelle Cathy
Fire and Ice, by Gaelle Cathy, follows the love story of Emma, a student from Manhattan, and Charlie, a glass blower from New Hampshire. Emma had been stringing along three very different men prior to her family’s temporary move to the ‘countryside’ and the fresh air seems to drastically alter her sexual preference. Sexual tension knocksRead More
TB reviews The Gravity Between Us by Kristen Zimmer
I’ve been seeing The Gravity Between Us, by Kristen Zimmer, quite a bit lately and was impressed by the amount of reviews it had in a short amount of time. I decided it was time to read it to see what the fuss was about. Payton has been in love with Kendall for a long time.Read More
Kit reviews Valhalla by Ari Bach
Violet MacRae is one of the aimless millions crowding northern Scotland. In the year 2330, where war is obsolete and only brilliant minds are valued, she emerges into adulthood with more brawn than brains and a propensity for violence. People dismiss her as a relic, but world peace is more fragile than they know. InRead More
Jordan reviews Nevada by Imogen Binnie
If there is anything we need more of, it is trans* literature, or pretty much any books falling under that such umbrella term. But as the years go on we start to see more and more. Even so, books like Nevada or Luna, are still quite literally a rare treat, because I can actually countRead More
Kathleen Wheeler reviews Rain Falls by Kelli Jae Baeli
This is the first of Ms. Baeli’s work I’ve read and I’ve gotta say, I enjoyed it. It was a quick read, entertaining, funny in places, steamy in others, just enough suspense to keep it from becoming stale and overall a well conceived story. I’m not going to go into detail about what the storyRead More
Abigail reviews Riding Fury Home by Chana Wilson
A woman telling her own story in her own words is a powerful emotional force. Riding Fury Home by Chana Wilson packs an extra punch because we are invited to witness not only the story of the author’s life, but also of her mother Gloria’s life. The two women are so connected in so manyRead More
Danika reviews The Whip by Karen Kondazian
I will admit, I was a little wary of picking this one up. It has a very similar premise to The Rebellion of Miss Lucy Ann Lobdell by William Klaber, and I felt really conflicted about that book. (Both are fictionalized versions of the real lives of women who lived as men in the 1800s in America.)Read More
