Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Casey Plett is the kind of author I love and dread reading, because she so skillfully can break your heart. Her stories are beautiful, bittersweet, and achingly honest about the little ways we support and fail each other. My first experience reading Plett’s work was in chapbook form:Read More
Shannon reviews Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Contemporary romance isn’t always my genre of choice. I often struggle to identify with the characters and the situations in which they manage to embroil themselves, and to be quite honest, I was a little worried about this when I first picked up Morgan Rogers’s Honey Girl. ItRead More
Meagan Kimberly reviews You Exist Too Much by Zaina Arafat
Amazon Affiliate Link | Bookshop.org Affiliate Link Zaina Arafat’s You Exist Too Much follows an unnamed narrator as she struggles with her love addiction.

Danika reviews Milk Fed by Melissa Broder
There are some books–very rarely–that I read and form such a personal attachment to that I don’t want to share them with the world. This is one of them. I picked it up based on the fact that it was queer and had a blurb from Carmen Maria Machado; that was about all I knewRead More
16 Brilliant Bi and Lesbian Literary Fiction Novels to Keep You Thinking
When I say that I read mostly bi and lesbian literature, people often assume that means F/F romance. Although I like the occasional romance novel, the truth is that it makes up very little of my reading life. There are sapphic books in every genre: science fiction, fantasy, mystery, nonfiction, etc. One of the genresRead More

Sinclair reviews The Solstice Gift by Avery Cassell
The Solstice Gift by Avery Cassell is a queer love story in the best sense of the words. It doesn’t follow the traditional, heterosexual tropes of how the two characters meet and following them through their courtship, but comes in with the love story well under way, and continues with new and radical sexcapades thatRead More
anna marie reviews Salt Fish Girl by Larissa Lai
Salt Fish Girl by Larissa Lai is a gooey treat of a book, full of nauseating smells, intoxicating feelings and so much juicy/murky/enticing fluid. In other words it was really great, even better than The Tiger Flu (2018) in my opinion, which I read last year and enjoyed immensely too. Both novels in fact shareRead More
Sash S reviews Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters
It’s a new year and a new decade, but that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate an old classic. For that reason, I’m starting the year by revisiting Tipping the Velvet, which was published in 1998 and is set in Victorian England. ‘Have you ever tasted a Whitstable oyster?’ isn’t an especially striking opening line onRead More
Alice Pate reviews A Line In The Dark by Malinda Lo
Trigger Warnings: drug use, underage drinking, referenced underage sex, adult/teenager relationship Note: Not all trigger warnings are present in this review, but they are present in the book in question. A Line In The Dark may be marketed as a YA thriller, but I personally believe all the best parts of the story have nothingRead More
