A Queer, Angry Take on Doctor Who: The Infinite Miles by Hannah Fergesen

June 16, 2023 by Danika Ellis

This was such a let down. I used to be a big fan of Doctor Who (see my review of Queers Dig Time Lords) and am currently trying to catch up on the newest seasons. So when I saw a queer sci-fi book coming out that drew inspiration from Doctor Who, it sounded like theRead More

The Aftermath of Gay Conversion Camp: Tell the Rest by Lucy Jane Bledsoe

May 16, 2023 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link In 2014, I read The Big Bang Symphony by Lucy Jane Bledsoe based solely on the fact that it was included on a book list called “Lesbians In Cold Places.” And you know what?

The Enthusiastic Ally to Bisexual Pipeline: Imogen, Obviously by Becky Albertalli

May 7, 2023 by Danika Ellis

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Now that I’m twice the age of many of the protagonists in Young Adult books, I have a different relationship with them.
