SPOILER WARNING Trigger warning: emotional abuse, transphobia Being a Killing Eve mega-fan since season one began, it was only a matter of time before I got around to reading the books.

Danika reviews Stage Dreams by Melanie Gillman
I love Melanie Gillman’s art. The use pencil crayons, and the detail is incredible. I always spend half the time reading their books just admiring landscapes.

Megan Casey reviews Only Lawyers Dancing by Jan McKemmish
I’ve had to create a new shelf for this one called Lesbian Crime Fiction. There is a lot of crime in this book, and a couple of lesbians, but nobody actually solves a mystery or a puzzle. At least, I don’t think they do. The fact is that Only Lawyers Dancing is so literary that it’s oftenRead More

Donna and Carla lead the Bronte CloseRead More
Whitney D.R. reviews Goslyn County by AM McKnight
This was a labor, and not one particularly of love. I really wanted to read this because it was two black women, one a detective, the other an FBI agent–both lesbians– falling love as they solve a joint case. I love a good cops/FBI crime book and then to add older Black lesbians, which isRead More
Marthese reviews Frog Music by Emma Donoghue
Emma Donoghue is a phenomenal writer take is able to make you related to her narrative. So when I heard about a new book, I knew that I will someday buy it and read it especially one with such a nice cover! Frog Music is a historical fiction with some basis in reality as itRead More
