Kristi reviews On A Silver Platter by Linda Morganstein
I have never written a review about a DNF “Did Not Finish,” but after two months of trying to get through this particular title, I thought I would reflect on why I couldn’t make it. Alexis “Call me Alex” Pope is acting as a stunt woman on the set of On A Silver Platter, theRead More
Danika reviews Inseparable: Desire Between Women in Literature by Emma Donoghue
I don’t think I can properly express how much I adored this book. As I was reading it, I wrote down the page numbers where there were quotes I wanted to post on my LesLit tumblr, as well as books I wanted to add to my TBR list, and thoughts/comments I had. Typically when IRead More
Interview with Emma Donoghue
I just finished reading Inseparable by Emma Donoghue (review to be posted tomorrow), and I had the opportunity to interview the author herself about it! Q: I was coming into Inseparable expecting ambiguous relationships that we could project romantic or sexual feelings on, but I was surprised at the explicit female/female desire stories in literature stretchingRead More
Danika reviews Christmas Carol by Ruth Gogoll
A Christmas lesbian book! How exciting. And it’s a retelling of A Christmas Carol. I love retellings! Unfortunately, I’m not sure it’s a story that can be easily told as a lesbian romance. The original A Christmas Carol is a novella, but Ruth Gogoll’s retelling expands it into a novel. The first half of Christmas Carol is aRead More
Anna reviews Strange Bedfellows by Q. Kelly
Much like Pretty Woman, the lesbian novel Strange Bedfellows by Q. Kelly concerns itself with the relationship between a high-powered executive and a prostitute. Frances Dourne is the poster child for the ex-gay movement in Washington, DC as the leader of the organization Gay Is A Choice. But despite her public success, her personal life hasRead More

Another stack of les/etc books I haven’t read yet. But here’s why I want to read them!

Danika reviews Drag King Dreams by Leslie Feinberg
I loved this book. I still have yet to read Feinberg’s classic novel Stone Butch Blues, but I definitely am motivated to now. I read Drag King Dreams for an English class of mine, and I can see why it would be assigned: there is a lot here to tease out. [mild spoilers] On the oneRead More
Guest Lesbrarian J. E. Knowles reviews Rose’s Will by Denise Desio
Rose’s Will is a very good debut novel. I read most of it in one sitting, despite having to do so on my laptop (it’s e-book only, and I don’t have an e-book reader). Denise DeSio manages to tell a compelling story through the viewpoints of three very different characters. Set mostly in New York,Read More
