July 5, 2025 by Anna N.

Written by Jake Wyatt and illustrated by the mononymous Choo, The Well is a 2022 graphic novel that takes the emotional and narrative beats of a Grimm fairytale and frames them in an East Asian inspired low fantasy setting.

Jane Austen Meets Queer History: I Shall Never Fall in Love by Hari Conner Review

June 25, 2025 by Emory Rose

This Pride Month, I wanted to highlight I Shall Never Fall in Love by Hari Conner, a YA historical romance graphic novel that is one of my favorite comics I’ve read this year. I feel that it’s important to recognize that we have always been here, and not without opportunities for love and personal expression. George, theirRead More

A Trans Lesbian Mech Romcom: Lsbn by Emma Jayne Review

March 14, 2025 by Danika Ellis

If you’re looking for a fun one-sitting read, why not pick up this trans lesbian “mech rom-com graphic novel,” as the blurb describes it? I feel like you’re already sold, but I’ll keep going anyway.

Queer, Revelatory Joy in The Deep Dark by Molly Knox Ostertag 

March 5, 2025 by Susanne Salehi

Already a fan of Molly Knox Ostertag’s The Girl from the Sea, I had a good feeling about the weighty tome that is The Deep Dark. Friends, this poignant graphic novel delivered and then some. It’s like someone translated the sensation of waiting for the other shoe to drop and described the steps someone would take toRead More

Three Hope-Filled Sapphic Graphic Novels

January 26, 2025 by Emory Rose

I appreciate when coming-of-age stories show people continuing to learn and grow through college and beyond, and this month, I read three graphic novels in that vein: two college stories and one memoir. All of these stand-alone books feature adults but are appropriate for young adult readers, and all of them are lighthearted. Bunt! StrikingRead More

Jane Austen Meets Queer Historical Joy: I Shall Never Fall in Love by Hari Conner Review

January 22, 2025 by Danika Ellis

Generally speaking, I’m used to queer historical fiction falling into two categories: depressing and trying to be historically accurate, or joyful and set in an imaginary version of history without bigotry. When I picked up I Shall Never Fall in Love, I was expecting the latter. After all, this is a book that draws heavilyRead More
