April 3, 2023 by Meagan Kimberly

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link In this retelling of The Great Gatsby, Jordan Baker narrates the story from the perspective of a queer, Asian woman adopted by a white couple.

Ambitious, Brutal, and Brilliant Trans Sapphic Horror: Tell Me I’m Worthless by Alison Rumfitt

March 27, 2023 by Maggie

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I’ve been having a good run with horror lately, and Alison Rumfitt’s stunning work of trans horror Tell Me I’m Worthless kept that streak up. The pull quote on the front cover advertises it as “ambitious, brutal, and brilliant,” and I think that’s a good starting point forRead More

Nat reviews Pack of Her Own by Elena Abbott

March 24, 2023 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I picked up this li’l werewolf book off of a Twitter recommendation – vampires, ghouls, shifters – I expected something of a campy read. Who knew we would be exploring identity, found family, and processing trauma from various angles? If you plopped down a literary fiction tome andRead More

Rachel reviews The Disenchantment by Celia Bell

Susannah reviews Sorry, Bro by Taleen Voskuni

March 9, 2023 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Taleen Voskuni’s promising sapphic debut packs more than your average meet-cute romance. Sorry, Bro follows an Armenian American woman’s quest to balance familial duty, identity, career aspirations, and, of course, love.

Nat reviews Tailor-Made by Yolanda Wallace

March 2, 2023 by Lesbrarians

I went looking for one of Wallace’s newer books at the library and, to my delight, stumbled on a few of her older books, which is always a nice surprise when you find a new author you like. Instant book list! Tailor-Made is an opposites attract, forbidden love romance with a lot of interesting dialogueRead More

Meagan Kimberly reviews Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

February 28, 2023 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link In the second of the Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir, we follow the story of Harrow. But this isn’t the same Harrow from Gideon the Ninth. It seems like this is a Harrow from an alternate timeline and the original Harrow died. Except not really. However, thereRead More

Maggie reviews A Restless Truth by Freya Marske

February 27, 2023 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Last year, I was delighted by A Marvellous Light, a gay murder mystery/romance in which Robin, a newly-made Baronet, is appointed to the wrong government office and is accidently drawn into the hidden world of magical society when shadowy forces think he knows more than he does. With a curseRead More

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link If you spend much time on Tumblr—and who doesn’t, these days—there’s a good chance you’ve seen at least one of Melanie Gillman’s gay fairy tale 24-hour comics. They’re well-loved on the microblogging social media, and for good reason. With simple but beautiful panels, an enchanting storybook feel, andRead More
