allis reviews Maye’s Request by Clifford Henderson
When I read the summary for this book I was highly intrigued by this part “[Brianna] parents form a perfect triangle: Mom, Dad, and her mother’s lover—who also happens to be her Dad’s twin sister”. From this, I gathered that the story was going to be quite unusual and promised to be at least interestingRead More
Laura Mandanas reviews Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg
A few weeks ago, I decided to bring a book into the tub for a relaxing bubble bath. When the temperature was right, I gingerly picked up the paperback and eased my way into the frothy suds, cautiously avoiding the slightest splash. I took careful pains to hold the book a deliberate 6-8 inches outRead More
Casey reviews In Another Place, Not Here by Dionne Brand
For readers unaccustomed to the Black Caribbean vernacular that begins Dionne Brand’s 1996 novel In Another Place, Not Here—like me—there’s a bid of an initial hurdle to leap over to sink into this book. But trust me, it’s worth it; and sink in you truly do. Brand is an exhilarating poet and although this isRead More
Islay reviews Raven Mask by Winter Pennington
Raven Mask is the second in Winter Pennington’s series featuring the adventures of ‘preternatural investigator’ werewolf Kassandra Lyall, and I would most certainly recommend reading the first before the second as Raven Mask picks up fairly seamlessly from where the first novel leaves off. It is, however, an enjoyable romp told with flare and goodRead More

Mfred reviews Piece of My Heart by Julia Watts
Can a poor end to an otherwise okay book truly ruin the entire reading experience? This is the question I have been pondering since reading Julia Watt’s Piece of My Heart. Jess Hamlin starts grad school just out of the closet and broken hearted. Pining for her former (yet still straight) roommate, she begins aRead More

Danika reviews Fireflies by Lacey Reah
I had all these notes written down about Fireflies and I lost them! Sigh. I’ll just do a short form review, then. Pros: I adore this cover. This is probably my favourite cover ever. I’m not sure why, but I just think the art is fantastic, and it’s sexual without being creepy. Also, it actuallyRead More
