Carmella reviews Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo

December 20, 2019 by Danika Ellis

It felt like I was seeing the vibrant front cover of Girl, Woman, Other everywhere (or at least all over lesbian bookstagram), so when it won the Booker Prize for Fiction, I decided it was finally time to buy a copy and see what the buzz was about. The book follows twelve loosely-connected characters, eachRead More

Carmella reviews The Confession by Jessie Burton

October 18, 2019 by Danika Ellis

Elise Morceau is enjoying a winter’s walk on Hampstead Heath when a striking older woman catches her eye. It’s attraction at first sight for the pair of them. Soon Elise is being whisked away by Connie – a successful author whose book is being developed into a Hollywood film. Does this sound like the plotRead More

Marthese reviews Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli

January 11, 2019 by Danika Ellis

“Something tugs in my chest. I feel strangely offbeat” Leah on the Offbeat is the second book in the Creekwood series by Becky Albertalli and it follows Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda (on which the movie ‘Love, Simon’ was based). While it may be worthwhile to read that book first it is not necessary to understand thisRead More

Danika reviews Let’s Talk About Love by Claire Kann

May 29, 2018 by Danika Ellis

  I have a lot of mixed feelings about this one. Initially, I was really excited to pick it up! A black, biromantic, asexual main character in a YA romance? That is definitely not an intersection often explored. I was looking forward to something fun and fairly light, and initially, I thought that was whatRead More

Danika reviews Sugar Town by Hazel Newlevant

November 6, 2017 by Danika Ellis

I knew I would like Sugar Town from the cover alone, and from the first page, it didn’t disappoint. https://www.instagram.com/p/BbJEhH9hSCX/ This is a queer, polyamorous, BDSM fluffy love story. Hazel is in an open relationship with her boyfriend, and she bumps into Argent, a confident and kind domme, at a party. They click instantly, and ArgentRead More

Laura reviews Adaptation by Malinda Lo

January 22, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Publisher’s Blurb: Reese can’t remember anything from the time between the accident and the day she woke up almost a month later. She only knows one thing: She’s different now. Across North America, flocks of birds hurl themselves into airplanes, causing at least a dozen to crash. Thousands of people die. Fearing terrorism, the UnitedRead More
