Sparks Fly by Llinos Cathryn Thomas is a cute space romance novella between two older women with a happy ending. While I did like the characters and the plot, I wish Jo’s character was more developed and the setting was better written and more established. After twenty-five years of dedication and determination, Marianne Gordon has finallyRead More
Tierney reviews The Necessary Hunger by Nina Revoyr
Published in 1997, The Necessary Hunger is one of those novels that should be on the required reading list for queer women: it so perfectly depicts its protagonist’s emotional journey, impeccably capturing the essence of adolescent passion, basketball, unrequited love, and this particular moment in time in 1980s Los Angeles. The novel is told from Nancy’s pointRead More
Rebecca reviews Dreams Unspoken by R.J. Layer
R.J. Layer’s Dreams Unspoken is an okay read with a dull and dragging plot and the slowest burning romance ever. The book features two very different protagonists. We have rugged lesbian cowgirl Jo Marchal who has moved back home to be near to her dying father. Her parents do not accept her sexuality and after years ofRead More
Anna Marie reviews Women Lovers, Or the Third Woman by Natalie Clifford Barney
Women Lovers or the Third Woman by Natalie Clifford Barney is an intense and poetic modernist novel about three women (N, L and M) deeply devoted and in love with each other, and chronicles the transformation of their relationship. The idea of the “Third Woman” is not only a reference to one of the women inRead More
Sarah reviews Intersection by Nancy Ann Healy
Intersection is a romance/thriller featuring an FBI agent and a politician’s ex-wife. Although I wanted to fall in love with the book—the first in a series—it fell short for me in a number of different ways, and I don’t see myself picking up the sequels. The novel kicks off with Agent Alex Toles andRead More

Rebecca reviews Heartsick by Tracey Richardson
Heartsick is a pretty good read with a decent slow-build romance between an ER physician and a paramedic. While I do like this book and I recommend it, I would have really loved this book if it had slightly better characterization and writing. The book switches perspectives between our two protagonists, Angie Cullen, a former soldierRead More
Rebecca reviews Bait and Switch by Blythe H. Warren
Bait and Switch is a sweet, moving and well-written romance which you’ll definitely want to read twice. Our protagonist is dedicated marine biologist Liv Cucinelli who specializes in one-night stands. After an educational event at her aquarium, she is unexpectedly reunited with Mira Butler. Mira, the same woman who had ruined Liv’s life and college careerRead More
Danika reviews Her Body and Other Parties by Carmen Maria Machado
What a book. What a journey. Her Body and Other Parties is a short story collection that blends feminism, queerness, and fabulism into a haunting read. I have to say, when I saw this book included on queer book lists, I kept my expectations low. I was already sold on reading it (feminism & fabulism &Read More
