Alexa reviews Learning Curves by Ceillie Simkiss
Learning Curves is a 70-page novella with little conflict and a fluffy love story between two women at college. One of them is a Puerto Rican lesbian studying family law, and the other one is a white panromantic asexual woman with ADHD.

Marthese reviews The You I’ve Never Known by Ellen Hopkins
”Is there such a thing as promiscuous love, or dies it only apply to sex?” The You I’ve Never Known by Ellen Hopkins is a 500+ page book, written almost entirely in poetry form.

Susan reviews Fearless by Shira Glassman
Fearless by Shira Glassman is a short and sweet romance about a newly-out divorced woman, her crush on a music teacher at her daughter’s school, and falling back in love with music.

Shira Glassman reviews Roller Girl by Vanessa North

I’m no derby girl,Read More

Marthese reviews Dare Truth Or Promise by Paula Boock
“It’s dynamite, Mo. It’s dynamite” I have not read many classic queer literature, so when my friend lent me this book – no matter how many ebooks I have, nothing beats a paper book- I jumped on the bandwagon. Dare Truth Or Promise is a classic romance that takes place in Dunedin, New Zealand betweenRead More
Marthese reviews Aces by Kathryn Burns
‘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
