Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Sometimes when I’m reading/watching something, I think: what if this dashing, cavalier, risk-taking, slightly messy hero was a lesbian? Have you considered doing this exact story, literally nothing changed, except that instead of a vaguely scruffy man, this hero was a vaguely scruffy lesbian? I’m not the onlyRead More

Rachel reviews House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link From the author of The Year of the Witching (Penguin 2020) comes a new queer Gothic novel about blood, power, and control.

Danika reviews House of Hunger by Alexis Henderson
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link On paper, this should have been the perfect book for me to read Halloween month.

Sam reviews Robins in the Night by Dajo Jago
I first read Robins in the Night by Dajo Jago shortly after it came out in 2015.

Meagan Kimberly reviews Crossfire: A Litany for Survival by Staceyann Chin

Nat reviews Stud Like Her by Fiona Zedde
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link I actually read Stud Like Her for the first time as soon as it came out, and thought about reviewing it then, but then I thought *everyone* was going to be reviewing it because there are so few books about studs loving other studs. As I was rereadingRead More
Kelleen reviews The Roommate Risk by Talia Hibbert
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Recently, a friend of mine asked me for friends-to-lovers romance recommendations. Now, if you know anything about me as a romance reader (besides the fact that I’m gay and disabled and read gay and disabled romance), it’s that I HATE the trope friends-to-lovers. I love friendship. I thinkRead More
