TB reviews Broken Star by Joann Lee

October 25, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Joann Lee’s Broken Star is a fun novel that has romance and suspense. It would be a great beach read or a good book to curl up with on a rainy afternoon.  Lynn Feoras is a successful singer and writer. She has everything, or so it seems. Lynn, however, feels empty. Alexis Donatella is an SVU officer.Read More

Marcia reviews Star Cursed, The Cahill Witch Chronicles Book #2, by Jessica Spotswood

October 22, 2013 by Danika Ellis

I was more than a little excited to pick up my copy of Star Cursed, the sequel to Born Wicked and book two of The Cahill Witch Chronicles by Jessica Spotswood. After Wicked‘s climactic ending — involving a serious choice and the chaos of discovering manipulation — I was sure that the Cahill sisters wouldRead More

Sponsored Review: Danika reviews Wet Paint by Sera Breen

October 14, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Wet Paint is a fun, light romance novella, which would be perfect for a beach read (too bad that’s a bit out of season now). It plays into typical romance tropes, describing characters’ appearances in detail (who are all breathtakingly beautiful, of course), and sets up the free spirit artist who has just gotten outRead More

Lena reviews In This Small Spot by Caren J. Werlinger

October 11, 2013 by Danika Ellis

While it’s clear that In this Small Spot, Caren J. Werlinger’s abbey epic, is a love story, it is ultimately a book about excess and restraint.  The story’s arc is massive, sprawling across five years and numerous memories.  It’s a lengthy commitment, but luckily the prose moves along at a nice pace.  Werlinger has aRead More

Danika reviews The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez

October 11, 2013 by Danika Ellis

  This October I decided that I wanted to devote some time to Halloween reads. My top pick was a lesbian vampire classic (no, not that one), The Gilda Stories. It’s not the first lesbian vampire book I’ve read, but this one stands out for being neither horror nor erotica. It follows a vampire from just beforeRead More

Sponsored Review: Danika reviews Charity by Paulette Callen

October 10, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Charity is a novel that mixes several genres. It is definitely historical fiction, set in the late 19th century in a small town in America, and it is also sort of a lesbian romance novel, but there’s definitely the element of a mystery as well. At the same time, it’s an exploration of the townRead More

Tag reviews The Collection: Short Fiction from the Transgender Vanguard edited by Tom Leger and Riley Macleod

October 8, 2013 by Danika Ellis

“In some ways, this book is a response to what so many professors of English language literature ask their students to consider at the start of each semester. Why literature? What does literature accomplish?” The Collection: Short Fiction from the Transgender Vanguard is straightforward in what it is right in the title. It’s a collectionRead More
