Amanda Clay reviews Not Otherwise Specified by Hannah Moskowitz

March 8, 2015 by Danika Ellis

Hold on to your hats, ladies! Have I got news for you! Hannah Moskowitz’s new book Not Otherwise Specified is an actual novel about an actual bisexual woman of color. That’s right! You heard correctly! Protagonist! Bisexual! Woman of color!  And it’s a good book!  This is like seeing a unicorn riding a dragon ridingRead More

Danika reviews Kiss & Tell: A Romantic Resume, Ages 0 to 22 by MariNaomi

February 18, 2015 by Danika Ellis

  Right off the bat I have to let you know that this isn’t a lesbian book. MariNaomi seems to be attracted to more than one gender, but the vast majority of this book deal with her relationships with boys and men, with the occasional experiment with girls, though there are hints throughout the bookRead More

Amanda Clay reviews Make Much of Me by Kayla Bashe

January 10, 2015 by Danika Ellis

You had me at “Jazz Age”.  Truly, in my mind, there is no more attractive time in human history than this fleeting moment between the Great War and the Great Depression. New York, London, Paris, Munich, this is the time to be a woman loving woman and dance about in your sparkly dresses, powdering eachRead More

Casey reviews My Education by Susan Choi [with spoilers]

July 4, 2014 by Danika Ellis

I’ve been on a bit of a bisexual book binge lately, so after the Lambda Literary awards were announced and Susan Choi’s third novel My Education was declared the winner in the category of bisexual fiction, I thought I should pick it up.  I have a healthy amount of skepticism about the decision making atRead More

Marcia reviews Stumptown Vol 1 by Greg Rucka, illustrated by Matthew Southworth

February 4, 2013 by Danika Ellis

Dex Parios may be a down-on-her-luck gambler who has put a few too many dollars on the house tab, but she is a talented investigator – and it’s those investigative skills that will get her out of debt, and, unfortunately, into trouble. The volume one of the graphic novel Stumptown, written by Greg Rucka (GothamRead 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

Laura reviews “Thicker Than Blood” by Avery Vanderlyle

October 16, 2012 by Danika Ellis

Publisher’s Blurb: When the Nanotech Plague began killing off the large population of America using the tiny, implanted robots, the so-called “normals” took it upon themselves to wipe out the rest to prevent the spread. Now, fourteen years later, performer Ayana is in a dangerous position. Her nanotechnology implants are impossible to hide, having beenRead More

Guest Lesbrarian Shanna

March 6, 2011 by Danika Ellis

This is a new author who has written a beautiful take on the Cinderella story, with a twist. Ash’s mother is dead, and, following in the tradition of almost all Disney movies, epic poems, and fairy tales, her father dies soon after.  She’s left at the mercy of her stepmother, forced to clean and lookRead More

Danika reviews Dear John, I Love Jane edited by Candace Walsh and Laura Andre

February 24, 2011 by Danika Ellis

I love this book. I just want to say that straight off the bat. In any minority (of power) group, telling our own stories is crucial, especially when they’re stories that defy the narrative that has traditionally been put forth about that group. The foreword of Dear John, I Love Jane is written by theRead More

Danika reviews Kushiel’s Dart by Jacqueline Carey

April 22, 2010 by Danika Ellis

Love as thou wilt. Such is the precept of Elua, the most important deity of Terre d’Ange, where Kushiel’s Dart takes place. If that sounds like the perfect commandment for a queer novel, it pretty much is. Kushiel’s Dart is the first of a trio of trilogies based in the same world, though only theRead More
