Emily Danforth’s debut young adult novel, The Miseducation of Cameron Post, got several positive reviews in the mainstream media (I heard about it from NPR, but it also got a coveted starred review from Kirkus). Miles City, Montana native Cameron Post is twelve when her parents are killed in a tragic accident near Quake Lake.Read More
Allysse reviews Patience & Sarah by Isabel Miller
Patience & Sarah by Isabel Miller Patience and Sarah is a novel about two girls falling in love and trying to live together in the 19th century. Love is a strong element in the novel. It is what drives the main characters into action but it is not the only kind of love we discoverRead More
Maryam reviews Zapocalypse: The Midnight Special by D. Dye
I feel as though Lesbian Zombie Literature is the new genre to look out for. We seem to have gotten quite a few books like this to review lately! D. Dye’s Zapocalypse: The Midnight Special appealed to me the most because it is set “in some hick-ass town deep in the swamps of southern Georgia”. Sounds about twoRead More
Jasper reviews Beyond Binary by
Read Beyond Binary. It fails, as an anthology, to go very far beyond male/female straight/gay conceptions of gender identity and sexual orientation. It fails to showcase worlds and characters that universally accept identities and orientations that lie beyond expected binary norms. Some of its stories are weak and ambiguous; some end with characters in situationsRead More

Laura Mandanas reviews The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
So… before we get started, there are a few things I want to make perfectly clear: The main character in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is a cis male. The author of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is a cis male. The original Swedish title of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is Men Who Hate Women. Does The Girl WithRead More

Mfred Reviews The Blue Place by Nicola Griffith
Within the mystery genre, I’d place Nicola Griffith’s The Blue Place closer to James Ellory than to more typical whodunnits and detective stories. Similar to Ellroy’s noir thrillers, Griffith’s book is populated with unreliable narrators, deep psychological complexities, and intense, frightening violence. Griffith uses descriptive language much more lush and lyrical than anything Ellroy writes,Read More
Alyssa reviews The Gunfighter and The Gear-Head by Cassandra Duffy
The Gunfighter and The Gear-Head by Cassandra Duffy is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi western steampunk—stick with me here—erotica lesbian love triangle action-adventure story. I was somewhat doubtful at first, as I usually am when so many tropes are put together. However, I found it to be a solid, overall self-contained story. The post-apocalyptic situation, the aftermathRead More
Anna Katterjohn reviewed Shadow Swans by Laura Thomas
Laura Thomas’s Shadow Swans is by no means a romance novel. It is a love story. It is also a story of change, of the deliberate destruction of all that comes after a coming-of-age. Ruby Cooper is a 22-year-old millionaire; she created a social networking website for computer geeks. She chooses to make her homeRead More
