Tag reviews Fairy Tales for Princesses Who Love Dames by Rene von Bonaparte

January 14, 2014 by Danika Ellis

Fairy tales have always been one of my favourite things to read, and I’ll eat up retellings of them like nobody’s business. So it should be fairly apparent that I was excited to read lesbian retellings of popular fairy tales. Fairy tales! Modern retellings! Lesbians! That’s a perfect formula for me. The tales in thisRead More

In a lot of ways, Exception to the Rule by Cindy Rizzo has everything you would want in a queer love story.  Intelligent, socially conscious characters who are exceptionally good at their chosen fields and, after overcoming initial differences, share an exceptional romance.

January 3, 2014 by Danika Ellis

I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to get to reading Nevada by Imogen Binnie!  I finished it a few days before Christmas and am still feeling the impact of this powerful, thought-provoking novel.  Nevada follows the life of a queer trans woman named Maria.  She’s in her late twenties, she’s living in BrooklynRead More

Danika reviews The Big Bang Symphony by Lucy Jane Bledsoe

January 1, 2014 by Danika Ellis

This was the third book I read in December that Queer Books Please categorized as part of the “Lesbians In Cold Places” genre, and it definitely fits there! The Big Bang Symphony is set in Antarctica, and the incredibly cold climate can be felt on every page. Only one of the three protagonists is a lesbian,Read More

TB reviews Tighter, Tighter by Lynn Kear

December 27, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Today I’m pleased to review Tighter, Tighter by Lynn Kear. This is the second novel I’ve read by the author and I have to say I’m quickly becoming a devoted fan. Before I say more, here’s the synopsis: Eighteen-year-old Kath Branch disappeared from St. James, Illinois in 1975. That same night, local sandwich shop owner Billy CarlsonRead More

Danika reviews 1222 by Anne Holt

December 19, 2013 by Danika Ellis

When I first saw this book mentioned on Queer Books Please’s list Lesbians In Cold Places: A New Genre, I was already super enthusiastic about the list itself. I like seasonal reads (hence my October binge on horror), and combine that with lesbian main characters? Sold! Then I read the description of 1222 and found that itRead More

Danika reviews Fresh Tracks by Georgia Beers

December 17, 2013 by Danika Ellis

At the end of November, when I was planning the books I’d like to pick up in December, I took a look at my shelves to see if there were any holiday or wintery books I hadn’t read yet, and Fresh Tracks immediately jumped out at me, so I knew it was a must-read for theRead More
