If you’re anywhere near Vancouver July 31st, you should definitely go see the Dyke March. Not just because it’s a Dyke March, but also because there will be lesbrarians there! Yep, here’s the Facebook group. I hope some of you go, because I’d love to hear all about it!
Review Round Up
Because I don’t read fast enough to update this blog with all my reviews, here are some of the other reviews of lesbian books I’ve stumbled on lately. Our Big Gayborhood has put up their Summer Hot Books Picks, including some lesbian titles. Kissing the Witch by Emma Donoghue, one of my favorites, was reviewedRead More
Danika reviews The Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall
Whew. I finally finished reading The Well of Loneliness. This isn’t the first time I read it, but when Cass of Bonjour, Cass! suggested we read it for pride (finished a little late), I was all for tackling this classic lesbian tome. Once again, I must reiterate: don’t let this be the first lesbian bookRead More
Book Blogger Appreciation Week
I will putting up a very detailed review of The Well of Loneliness in a couple days, which is what I’ve been working on lately, but today I’m registered for BBAW: Book Blogger Appreciation Week. I’ve heard very good things about it and I’m excited to experience it. I’ve got to do a post toRead More
Lesbrary Sneak Peek: Anthologies and Books About Lesbian Books!
Okay, so I got these a while back in that giant book sale I was telling you about, but I’m still super excited about them. Actually, these are the books I’m most excited about reading. To start off with, there’s Piece of my Heart: A Lesbian of Colour Anthology. I’m always on the lookout forRead More
Danika reviews Fifty Gay and Lesbian Books Everybody Must Read edited by Richard Canning
I’m going to get my major problem with this book out of the way right at the beginning. I didn’t think it would be a perfectly even split between gay and lesbian books (and don’t get me started on those being the only categories), but I wasn’t expecting it be so heavily weighted on oneRead More
Lesbian Canon?
For the last couple days I’ve been thinking about the concept of a lesbian canon. I mean, I know that canons in general are problematic, but I like the idea of trying to identify the books that really steered lesbian writing. I think the Wikipedia entry does a pretty good job, but I don’t recognizeRead More
Irrelevant post
This is a little irrelevant, but I’ve been saying that I want to start an active lesbrary tumblr. I haven’t started it yet (though I have gathered together a lot of future material). What I have started, however, is a personal tumblr: Danika the Lesbrarian. It has posts of books, lesbians, and a lot ofRead More
Lesbrary Links: Communities
I’ve fallen woefully behind in reviewing these different lesbrary resources, so I’ve decided to review a bunch at once: the category that I think is probably the most useful in the whole list. Category: Communities Title(s): Amazon’s Lesbian Fiction Community, Bella and Spinsters Publishers Forum, Lesbian Fiction Forum, LesFic_Unbound Yahoo Group, Virtual Living Room: ForRead More
