An Epic, Slow Burn F/F Romance: The Senator’s Wife by Jen Lyon

February 6, 2024 by Liv

Amazon Affiliate Link Since reading The Senator’s Wife, I’ve been thinking about what exactly my criteria is for rating a book with five stars. Anne of Green Gables is the first five-star book I ever read; Anne of Avonlea was, unsurprisingly, the second. The three books by Jeanette Winterson that were the subject of my undergraduate thesis—The Passion, Written on theRead More

Nat reviews Thorn by Anna Burke

November 26, 2021 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link My recent infatuation with the Compass Rose series should have been all the warning I needed not to start an Anna Burke book just before bedtime.
