Danika reviews Eat Your Heart Out by Dayna Ingram

June 5, 2012 by Danika Ellis

I really wanted to like this book, because I have been looking for lesbian zombie apocalypse books for years (luckily, there are more than just this one now, but still). Luckily, this book is just as good as it sounds. First of all, it’s hilarious. I kept reading out passages to my partner, but I’dRead More

Danika reviews The Miseducation of Cameron Post by emily m. danforth

June 2, 2012 by Danika Ellis

If you follow other les/bi/etc book sites, or have been skimming the link round ups at the Lesbrary, you may have already heard of The Miseducation of Cameron Post. In fact, you may have already heard about it from a mainstream source, because Cam Post is published by a large publishing company (HarperCollins), and it’s beenRead More

Danika reviews Drawing Love by Juli Jousan

June 1, 2012 by Danika Ellis

Drawing Love by Juli Jousan treads a fine line. It could easily seem overwrought or juvenile. Drawing Love alternates between the present and a description of the main character, Mo, having a dramatic high school relationship. By relating that in flash backs, and showing that Mo has moved on and grown up since then, it avoids being completelyRead More

Danika reviews Are You My Mother? by Alison Bechdel

May 31, 2012 by Danika Ellis

I’m going to be honest, I have no idea how to review this book. I loved Bechdel’s first comic memoir, Fun Home, so I was very excited to pick up Are You My Mother? And it definitely does have some of the best elements from Fun Home: the writing is amazing, the art is beautiful, and the entire bookRead More

Guest Lesbrarian Jeanne Courtney review Riding Fury Home: A Memoir by Chana Wilson

May 29, 2012 by Danika Ellis

It reads like the very best fiction, with vivid details that stimulate all the senses, heart pounding scenes that keep the pages turning, and comical anecdotes that are both thought-provoking and fun. But this story is true, and relentlessly truthful, told without a hint of sensationalism or sentimentality. Personal experiences are deftly interspersed with Wilson’sRead More

Jasper reviews Steam-Powered II: Lesbian Steampunk Stories

May 28, 2012 by Danika Ellis

Bottom line: A collection of steampunk stories starring lesbians that deliberately tries to stretch beyond the Anglo-centric, but still operates within a Western-Europe-dominated colonial world. Many stories are good; only one is terrible; none except perhaps the final two pieces challenge steampunk conventions quite as hard as they might mean to. Content warnings (may containRead More

Danika reviews The Difference Between You and Me by Madeleine George

May 26, 2012 by Danika Ellis

I have a soft spot for lesbian teen fiction. Mostly because I feel like it’s a really important niche. It’s when many people first start coming out or questioning their sexuality, and it is really reassuring to be able to see a representation of yourself in fiction, especially one that reassures you that it canRead More

Kristi reviews Lemon Reef by Robin Silverman

May 24, 2012 by Danika Ellis

Jenna is shocked to receive the phone call that told her that her high school love has died from a heart attack while diving at Lemon Reef. Even though they had not been in contact, the shock of Del’s death is overshadowed by old memories and by a request from her ex’s family to fightRead More
