Laura Mandanas reviews The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

March 20, 2012 by Danika Ellis

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

March 13, 2012 by Danika Ellis

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

March 12, 2012 by Danika Ellis

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

March 8, 2012 by Danika Ellis

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

Anna M (DNF) reviews Better Off Red by Rebekah Weatherspoon

March 8, 2012 by Danika Ellis

It’s not often that I put down a book of lesbian fiction and feel completely uninclined to pick it up again. But no matter how much I tried to finish Better Off Red, by Rebekah Weatherspoon, it was simply not my cup of tea. The story concerns college freshman Ginger Carmichael, who has big plansRead More

Maryam reviews Best Lesbian Erotica 2012

February 27, 2012 by Danika Ellis

After a frustrating, busy week, I decided to relax with Best Lesbian Erotica 2012.  It definitely put me in a better mood – the collection starts off strong with Amy Butcher’s ‘Touched’.  I’m a sucker for a schoolgirl, so this little vignette was a delight. As a whole, Best Lesbian Erotica offers more hits than misses, although forRead More
