A Literary Love Story of the Moment: Liquid by Mariam Rahmani Review

May 13, 2025 by Anna N.

This novel has been a hard one to write a review for. Mostly because of the upheavals happening, and my subsequent desire to try and locate the text as best as I can in the current moment. Because, reader, it truly is a novel for the times, of the times. So here is the earliestRead More

A Sweet and Swoony YA Romance: Love Points to You by Alice Lin Review

February 28, 2025 by Danika Ellis

First of all, this is of my all-time favourite YA covers. It’s so adorable. And I’m happy to say that the story delivered. We’re following Lynda, a teenager who is devoted to getting into her dream art school. Unfortunately, her father just remarried and she now has to share a room with her stepsister, Josie.Read More

A Lush Horror Novella Embracing Death and Renewal: Green Fuse Burning by Tiffany Morris Review

December 1, 2024 by Emory Rose

“Why did people need to be in nature to process the things that happened to them? Maybe it was because what was thought of as wild did not require a veil—it saw you as you truly were: an animal skulking among animals.”  Though I haven’t read a lot of horror, there is plenty of horrorRead More

The Beauty of Decay: Green Fuse Burning by Tiffany Morris

October 30, 2024 by Danika Ellis

Last weekend was Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon, which I’ve done every year for the past ten years. For the October readathon, I save up horror and other Halloween-themed books all year to marathon that day. Green Fuse Burning seemed like a perfect choice: it’s a 99-page horror novella with an Indigenous and sapphic main character.Read More

A Lush and Sensual Greek Myth Retelling: The Palace of Eros by Caro de Robertis

August 14, 2024 by Anna N.

Buy this from Bookshop.org to support local bookstores and the Lesbrary! It’s no secret that Anne Carson has inspired many a sapphic love affair with ancient Greek myths, or that stories like Malinda Lo’s Ash, Sarah Diemer’s The Dark Wife, and a vast world of AU fanfiction showed that the threads from which most modern myths areRead More

A Lavender Haze Love Story: Late Bloomer by Mazey Eddings

August 6, 2024 by Liv

Buy this from Bookshop.org to support local bookstores and the Lesbrary! “I wish I could say it gets better, but it only gets worse.” “Nothing says love like Taylor Swift.” There is a lot to like about Late Bloomer by Mazey Eddings, but these two lines are what made the book stand out for me. In context,Read More

June 20, 2024 by Danika Ellis

Buy this from Bookshop.org to support local bookstores and the Lesbrary! If reading Here We Go Again by Alison Cochrun and Late Bloomer this year has taught me anything, it’s that I have a type in romance novels: two neurodivergent sapphics in love.

Tove Jansson: Life, Art, Words by Boel Westin, translated by Silvester Mazzarella

May 4, 2024 by Anna N.

Buy this from Bookshop.org to support local bookstores and the Lesbrary! A queer, iconoclast, anti-fascist, anti-war comic artist, and joyfully adventurous woman, the Tove Jansson brought to life by Boel Westin’s considered pen is a complicated, innovative creative in resolute pursuit of independence—in both her art and romances. Meticulously researched but rarely dry, this isRead More
