A Queer and Compassionate Foodie Manga Series: She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat Vols 1-5 by Sakaomi Yuzaki Review

February 23, 2025 by Danika Ellis

We’ve recommended this sapphic manga series at the Lesbrary several times before, but that was when there were only a couple volumes out. I just finished volume five, and I needed to let you all know that it has only gotten better with time. She Loves to Cook, and She Loves to Eat is myRead More

Maggie reviews Deathless Divide by Justina Ireland

June 15, 2020 by Danika Ellis

I really enjoyed Justina Ireland’s Dread Nation, and it is on my rec shortlist when people want fantasy or YA recs. So when I walked by the sequel in stores I was incredibly excited at A) the fact that it was out and B) how amazing the cover is. The complete drama of those outfitsRead More

Danika reviews The Lost Coast by A.R. Capetta

June 3, 2019 by Danika Ellis

This was my most-anticipated book of 2019, and it lived up to the hype. I knew from the time that I heard about a YA novel featuring six queer witches among the California redwood forests, I was hooked. This is such an atmospheric, encompassing read. It’s told in a way that mirrors the fantastical events:Read More

Aoife reviews Thaw by Elyse Springer

May 12, 2017 by Danika Ellis

**/* Closer to a 2 than a 3, but it gets bonus points for asexuality and librarians. I was really excited about this book–I downloaded it literally as soon as I saw the email. I’m grey ace myself, so asexual representation is something I’m personally invested in. That said, I was expecting a light read,Read More

Marthese reviews Aces by Kathryn Burns

October 18, 2015 by Danika Ellis

‘I did not adult well’ Aces is a short book on the relationship between Astrid and Hollis, two very creative women living in Seattle. They both work in retail but have a shared passion for writing. The story is told from Astrid’s perspective. This story feels real, is not that cliché and is very diverseRead More
