Lena reviews “Women Float” by Maureen Foley
“Women Float,” Maureen Foley’s gentle and lyrical novella is a lesson in patience and painful futility of life. The story follows Win, a baker in southern California, as she attempts to reconcile various pieces of her life. There’s her mother, a mysterious figure who disappeared when Win was nine; Mia, Win’s best friend and unrequitedRead More
Marcia reviews Legal Briefs edited by S. L. Armstrong & Carrie Cunn
I’ll kick this review off with a bit of full disclosure: I’m an asexual queer who doesn’t particularly enjoy erotica on screen or in print unless it deals with character building. Perhaps I made an odd choice to choose Legal Briefs, a six-story anthology with legal and erotic themes. The collection by Storm Moon PressRead More

Jordan reviews Gay Pride and Prejudice by Kate Christie (and Jane Austen)
Along my bookshelf, the possibility of seeing a classical book is actually really slim. About the only things I have are Little Women, a bunch of fairy tales, and a couple of somewhat old lesbian books. But the classics, like Melville and Pride and Prejudice are not something you’d find in my stuff, mostly becauseRead More
Danika reviews Swans & Klons by Nora Olsen
Teen dystopian is a huge genre right now, and I’m used to getting engrossed in giant trilogies contained in it (like The Hunger Games, Divergent, Chaos Walking–sadly, all nonlesbian). Compared to that, a 186-page novel is practically a short story. And Swans & Klons definitely has enough going on that it could have been stretched intoRead More

Danika reviews Lunatic Fringe and Hungry Ghost (Tales of the Pack Books 1 and 2) by Allison Moon
Okay, can we take a minute for these covers? Is it ridiculous to say that my expectations for Lunatic Fringe were really high just based on this cover? Well, to be fair, they were also very high because a) Allison Moon seems awesome and b) lesbian werewolves. Feminist, lesbian werewolves (!!!). That was about all I knewRead More
