For October, in honor of Halloween, I’ve been picking up some appropriate books. This one I was especially excited about, because there aren’t a lot of lesbian horror books. Besides, the premise really appealed to me. Here, I’ll just paste part of the the blurb. Sarah Crowe left Atlanta, and the remnants of a tumultuousRead More
Anna M reviews Small Town Trouble by Jean Erhardt

As the action begins, we find Kim returning to the small Ohio town of her youth to advise her mother on a potentially shady real estate deal. Behind her, she leaves a successful restaurant,Read More
Casey reviews Mermaid in Chelsea Creek by Michelle Tea
I feel a bit like a terrible literary queer when I say that I haven’t read much of Michelle Tea—I actually saw the film version of Valencia when it was recently at Vancouver’s queer film festival, and I haven’t read the book yet! While Michelle Tea was in town for the screening, though, I hadRead More
Danika reviews Blue Is the Warmest Color by Julie Maroh
Honestly, after Casey’s review of this title, I feel like my whole review could just be “I agree!” But that would be a bit of a cheat. Besides, I did read the English translation, so we do have that difference. Blue Is the Warmest Color is a graphic novel structured so that Emma is readingRead More

Rachel reviews Pembroke Park by Michelle Martin
Pembroke Park by Michelle Martin is a daring novel for its time. Published in 1986, it is the story of two lesbian women in the regency period of England. The year is 1817 in Herefordshire, and wealthy widow Joanna Sinclair, one of England’s privileged “ton”, the upper class society of England, meets her new neighbor,Read More
Danika reviews Love In the Time of Global Warming by Francesca Lia Block
Love In the Time of Global Warming by Francesca Lia Block is a post-apocalyptic Fantasy teen re-telling of The Odyssey. Yes, it has a lot going on. The book is set decades in the future, but for the most part it seems like it could be current day. The main character, Penelope, has survived (so far)Read More
