Love in the Times of Seaside Horror: Providence Girls by Morgan Dante Review

May 14, 2025 by Sritama Sen

In the past couple of years, I have discovered some real gems of independent and self-published sapphic literature. Last May, I read Morgan Dante’s stunning Providence Girls, which won Best Historical Fiction at the 2023 Indie Ink awards. The author pitches it as “a seaside sapphic cosmic horror romance” in the vein of The Handmaiden and The Shape ofRead More

Dark Academia Ft. Sapphic Longing: In the Roses of Pieria by Anna Burke

October 2, 2024 by Susanne Salehi

Before we embark on our journey, a disclaimer: Anna Burke is a former professor and a friend, which is why I hesitated to write about In the Roses of Pieria. But who am I to second guess optics, and why should I let that get in the way of sharing one of my favorite moody OctoberRead More

Queer Friendship and Active Shooter Drills: Fight + Flight by Jules Machias

Trigger warnings: anxiety, panic attacks, bullying, grief, gun violence in schools Fight + Flight has two main characters, Avery and Sarah, who take turns narrating. They attend the same school and each begins the book interested in the other. Bold, active Avery is openly pansexual; she knows she has a crush. And, as a middle schoolRead More

Sam reviews The Tiger’s Daughter by K Arsenault Rivera

January 22, 2022 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link The Year of the Tiger begins in less than a week, which is a convenient excuse for me to review The Tiger’s Daughter by K Arsenault Rivera. Not that I need one; this book is both extremely good, and seems to have flown under a lot of people’sRead More

Marieke reviews The Confessions Of Frannie Langton by Sara Collins

July 1, 2021 by Lesbrarians

Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link This is not a happy book. It tells you that in the title already: the ‘confessions’ refer to Frannie’s written musings that she notes down while she is on trial for the murder of her employer and his wife–the latter of whom she happened to be in aRead More

Danika reviews I Hate Everyone But You by Gaby Dunn and Allison Raskin

September 21, 2019 by Danika Ellis

It’s a shame that New Adult as a genre never really took off outside of Romance, because I think there’s a demand for it. The just-after-high-school years, whether they’re spent in college/university or elsewhere, have distinct challenges. I Hate Everyone But You is set during that time, following Ava and Gen as they are just beginningRead More

Danika reviews P.S. I Miss You by Jen Petro-Roy

July 4, 2018 by Danika Ellis

My first introduction to P.S. I Miss You was Jen Petro-Roy’s Entertainment Weekly article, where she talks about how her book didn’t get a tour through schools, because all but one school considered it “too mature.” That’s a shame, because this middle grade book has a lot to offer. It’s an epistolary novel, told in lettersRead More
